Dating back to the early 19th century this cosy, community pub is situated a short distance north of Deal's town centre.

The large L-shaped bar, wooden floors, bench seating and lots of mirrors give the pub's interior a pleasant feel to it.

There's always one ale from Shepherd Neame's range, plus an occasional second beer.

Tuesday night is pie night. On Friday and Saturday it's smashed steak burgers & German sausage and there's a traditional roast on Sunday. Breakfasts are served on Saturday and Sunday morning from 8.00am. All ingredients are locally sourced.

At the back there is a courtyard garden, a pleasant place for a drink or two while soaking up the sun and sea air.

Events at the pub vary from regular live music to monthly quizzes.

Although the pub is not fully wheel-chair friendly, a ramp is available giving access to the bar.Kent’s Public House Archive: Saracen's Head, Deal
