Family Days Out In Kent

The George & Dragon

Located in the heart of the picture postcard Kent village of Ightham, The George & Dragon dates back to c1515. Popular Folklore has it that it was here that Guy Fawkes' foiled Gun Powder plot was hatched and it is a rumoured that Queen Elizabeth I herself was once a visitor here. Engraved in the wooden Fireplace is the Duke of Northumberland's' Knot, said to be carved by the Duke himself when he was kept imprisoned in the old restaurant. Today, we are a Food led classic old English country pub, serving both our local community and guests from far and wide. We have roaring log fires, low slung exposed beams, a good selection of real ales and lagers, and an award winning wine list. We pride ourselves on our warm welcome, great service, relaxed ambiance and good honest, unpretentious, locally sourced and freshly prepared food.
