A much-loved village pub in the most spectacular of settings.
Situated directly on Kingsdown Beach near Deal, The Zetland Arms is one of Kent's most iconic seaside pubs, serving great food, award-winning ales and a warm welcome since 1863.
Nestled among colourful beach huts with panoramic views across the English Channel, this historic beachfront pub enjoys one of the most spectacular settings on the Kent coast. With the White Cliffs as a backdrop and France visible on clear days, it's the perfect place to relax with a drink, enjoy a leisurely lunch or gather with friends and family by the sea.
A coastal treasure
Popular with both locals and visitors throughout the year, The Zetland Arms combines traditional pub hospitality with an unbeatable coastal location. Families are welcome, dogs are welcome throughout the pub, and a sheltered rear courtyard offers a sunny spot away from the sea breeze.
Whether you're visiting after a coastal walk, exploring the Kent coastline or simply looking for a pub with sea views, The Zetland Arms provides a memorable seaside dining and drinking experience.
Delicious food right by the sea
