Duke of Cumberland
High Street, Whitstable CT5 1AP
Imposing Grade II building near the beach, comprising hotel, bar and restaurant. There has been an inn on this site for more than 300 years. Known as the Noah’s Ark until 1747, Landlord Robert Chandler renamed it Duke William in honour of the Duke of Cumberland who, a year earlier, had crushed the Scottish rebellion at Culloden. In 1748 it became The Duke of Cumberland and was used as the headquarters for the oyster and dredger men. Fire swept through the building in 1866 and it was rebuilt in 1878.
East Kent
72 Oxford Street, Whitstable CT5 1DA
Named after The Buffs, a local Royal Regiment, The East Kent is situated towards one end of Whitstable’s main shopping area and re-opened in December 2016 after a major refurbishment and upgrade to a bright modern airy style which did, however, remove many of its original internal features. Regular live music, including jazz on Sunday afternoons. There is outdoor seating on the patios at the front and back of the pub.
Fountain
29 Sydenham Street, Whitstable CT5 1HN
The Fountain is a backstreet corner pub close to Whitstable's main shopping area. The pub has a pool table at one end and seating throughout. The real ale tends to be from local breweries.

Dating from 1860, this is a typical Whitstable backstreet pub not far from the harbour and shopping area.

Old Neptune
Marine Terrace, Whitstable CT5 1EJ
Attractive pub actually on the beach, please ask for plastic glasses if taking drinks outside to the seating overlooking the Thames estuary and the Isle of Sheppey. The wooden building has been affected by years of storms and the floor has a distinct slope. The hours shown above are for summer opening: in winter the pub opens at noon and may shut early Mon-Wed. Food in winter is usually 12-2.30. The windows have stained glass TW insets of the former Tomson and Wotton brewery. The film "Venus" starring Peter O'Toole was partly filmed here.
