76 /100 Whitstable Oyster Fishery Co (Restaurant) HORSEBRIDGE ROAD An excellent restaurant with a decent beer selection. A few things on keg, around 10+ beers in cans. Nice local offering. The seafood is great here, fairly pricy but I think the quality just about warrants it. A good place for a meal and a beer in Whitstable. |
56 /100 Ship Centurion (Bar) 111 HIGH STREET, Looks nice from the outside but nothing special inside. It serves mainly macro keg beers with a small selection of widely available cask beers. A little rowdy. Not my kind of pub. |
64 /100 Peter Cushing (JDW) (Bar) 16–18 OXFORD STREET Beautiful building. A former cinema I believe. Nicely decorated. Sadly not much on the beer front. I expected some local ales but there were none, just the standard Spoons Doom Bar and Ruddles etc. Nice place but the manager needs to bring in something local and different to make it appealing. |
62 /100 Offy (Beer Store) 5 HIGH STREET A decent off license with a solid beer selection from mainly local breweries. Worth a visit if you need to stock up on your Kent beers! |
64 /100 Handsome Sam (Bar) 3 CANTERBURY ROAD A super little micro pub in the town centre. Lots of wood with seating for around 25. Dogs welcome. They have four gravity cask ales and a small bottle selection. Friendly and helpful service. Really liked it in here. It’s a shame my time was limited. |
80 /100 PEARSONS COTTAGES, SEA WALL An awesome, newly opened bar on the seafront at Whitstable. Lots of wood and brick. Very tastefully decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. They have up to 14 taps, most of which are from the greatly improving Whitstable brewery and around 80 bottles and cans from around the UK, plus a handful from Belgium. Working WiFi. A must-visit bar for anyone in Whitstable. Actually a must-visit bar for anyone in Kent for that matter! Can’t wait to return. |
70 /100 Offy (Beer Store) 5 HIGH STREET Visited on Saturday 12/10/19.
Decent enough offie on the Main Street.
A good 40 to 50 beers and nearly all from Kent both old and new leaning with BA beers from Time and Tide amongst the trad bitters.
You’ll be sure to secure a few ticks here. |
76 /100 Twelve Taps (Bar) 102 HIGH STREET Visited on Saturday afternoon, 12/10/19.
Located on the High Street, 17 doors down from the Black Dog, the Twelve Taps is a keg only micro pub with gin and wine tossed in allied to a decent canned beer selection in the fridge.
Single room bar that probably seats 50 or so when full the walls and ceilings are adorned with tap badges and a display of underwear !
Mixture of high bench along the back wall and low table seating on the inside.
The place was less than half full on arrival at 1500 but by the time we left an hour later it was packed.
Thirds available and tasting flights will save you money over individual beers.
Selection on tap was a-typical on my visit as they had a Buxton brewery TTO on.
10 Buxton beers plus a Hammerton imperial stout and lost & grounded pils formed the 12 taps.
Service was prompt and friendly.
Overall a great little craft focussed micropub. |
74 /100 Offy (Beer Store) 5 HIGH STREET Modern off-license with a focus on quality over the usual mass-market rubbish. Big emphasis on good independent wines, lots of local / regional beer and cider, some international craft options in the fridge. Even a sweet section. Seemed to be quite popular on our visit, and justly so. The kind of offy every town should have.

52 /100 Forge (Restaurant) WHITSTABLE FISHERMAN’S HUTS, SEA WALL A shack on Whitstable beach serving oysters, donuts, fish and chips and some very good beer. Its served out of polypins and the pint of IPA that I had (no idea of the brewery) was very good. They do say that the beer has to be drunk in their little fenced in area, but the chap I was with and I smuggled them out and onto the beach where our respective wives were waiting and monitoring the children. The food looks excellent, huge portions of fish and chips and the oysters are shucked in front of you. In fact, they are shucked slightly round the corner from the serving hatch, but they have a CCTV camera installed so you can make sure it is done properly. Service was poor, but the young man serving us explained that they were a man down on the day, so they are forgiven for that. If you are in Whitstable I recommend a visit. |
70 /100 Offy (Beer Store) 5 HIGH STREET An OK off licence. Nice range of beers, though nothing spectacular. Some regional stuff, a few of the more prominent London brewers, some random US breweries, a few ciders. Good prices. Service is friendly enough. Certainly not a destination on its own, but a good option for the town. |
64 /100 Hotel Continental (Bar) 29 BEACH WALK Owned by the same group that owns the Whitstable Brewery. A small bar/cafe on the sea front serving 6 Whitstable beers on tap plus several bottles. Great service, solid wifi and good food too. |
78 /100 Twelve Taps (Bar) 102 HIGH STREET An awesome, recently opened, craft beer pub in the centre of Whitstable. As the name suggests, they have 12 taps with a good selection of local Kent brewed beers and the reminder from the rest of the U.K. and around the world. A really nice place with a nice warm feel to it. They serve 1/3 pint flights, priced on the alcohol content. Friendly service and solid wifi. A really superb place and well worth a visit. I will return, just not sure when! |
78 /100 Twelve Taps (Bar) 102 HIGH STREET Whitstable’s Craft alehouse, opened March 2016. Visited on 7th May, at the end of a crawl. A friendly, town-centre craft keg house featuring beers from UK micros. A low ceilinged intimate narrow pub with a small beer garden at the rear. Friendly staff and chilled, relaxed drinkers. I enjoyed my pint of Magic Rock Salty Kiss, sadly time was running out otherwise I would have stayed for a couple more. Flights are available. This is a great addition to Whitstable’s beer circuit, and deserves to succeed. It is completely different from the German-styled Ship Centurion across the road, but equally pleasant and welcoming. Beware it is closed on Mondays except bank holidays. Enjoy! |
72 /100 Ship Centurion (Bar) 111 HIGH STREET, Visited this traditional, welcoming pub on 7th May 2016. This is a pleasant town centre house with a German theme to it. Indeed this theme runs through the food menu, the keg beer range, the illuminated signage and events for locals which include trips to Germany. Staff were very friendly behind the bar, and my pint of Time and Tide Ship Centurion was superb. The cask ale range is micros to medium sized breweries from southern and eastern England. I was not in the pub long enough to survey or sample the German range. Small screen TVs showing sports. It was an early Saturday evening and the pub was fairly busy but not heaving. All in all a very pleasant pub and well worth visiting while in town. Also handy for the Twelve Taps over the road. |
64 /100 Whitstable Oyster Fishery Co (Restaurant) HORSEBRIDGE ROAD This fish restaurant is housed in a great building that might of been a warehouse at some point. Lost of exposed bricks. Service has always been ok. They have Whitstable brewery ale available. Food its ok, nothing special but not bad. Worth a visit. |
64 /100 Whitstable Oyster Fishery Co (Restaurant) HORSEBRIDGE ROAD Love the oyster stout and the location but other than that i find the selection weak |
