The Bull Hotel
Run by visionary Martin Deadman since 2007, The Bull is now
rated by The AA as one of the top 22 restaurants in Kent and is
listed in The Michelin Guide 2015.
The new chefs - led by the talented head chef, James Hawkes have transformed The Bull to a destination restaurant with
boutique rooms. The modern English menu, according to The AA,
“has more cutting edge than might be expected in a village inn.”
Loyal to the tradition of a 14th-century inn, The Bull is a relaxed
and informal place to drink and dine. The award-winning modern
British menu makes delicious use of the highest-quality seasonal
produce from the wealth of fantastic local producers wherever
possible – from free-range eggs laid by happy hens at nearby
Woods’ Farm to local cheeses like Winterdale Shaw produced just
down the road, and incidentally given the royal seal of approval by
Prince Charles, who declared it ‘marvellous’.
And of course, this is an inn at its heart so as you’d expect there’s a
fabulous variety of ales, including a new range of artisan beers
from London’s trendiest microbreweries, as well as the best local
findings such as The Curious Brew from Chapel Down in
Tenderden and Dark Star. The extensive and well-priced wine list
with a great selection by the glass is all tasted by Martin before
being included on the list.

During the summer, the BBQ revolution comes to Kent with the
innovative pop-up smokery and barbecue The Bull Pit. Located at
The Bull courtyard, The Bull Pit serves amazing succulent barbecue
prepared in the state-of-the-art The Big Green Egg barbecue that
comes all the way from the USA. Clients can relax in the cozy
courtyard and indulge in their carnivore urges with a menu full of
the juiciest joints from the best local suppliers. The steaks are
already local legends – suppliers Hartley Bottom Farm, less than
six miles away, hang the beef for 30 days exclusively for The Bull.
Martin says, "Our team is at the heart of our success and have
created a natural and genuine atmosphere with commitment to
customer welfare paying an instrumental part in The Bull Hotel
being awarded Two AA Rosettes and becoming Michelin listed.”
To celebrate the accolades from The AA and The Michelin guides,
Martin and James have created a celebration three-course set
menu at £20 (lunch) and £25 (dinner) for the new year.
