Please call us to book a table or reserve one of our four double bedrooms for B&B. When booking by e-mail at short notice, please phone to check we have your booking as mail sometimes comes in to us whilst we are working in the kitchen, bar or restaurant and can occasionally be missed. The Dering Arms can be found in the small village of Pluckley, near to Ashford.
Reservations
Report
Unlike some restaurants and coaching Inns we're actively involved with the running of the restaurant and the B&B rooms. If you rely on an email booking, particularly at the last minute, you may find that we are in the kitchen or the restaurant when it comes into the office, so we don't get to see it in time.
Club Room
Report
As well as being warm and relaxing the Club Room at the Dering Arms is the largest room in the Lodge and is used for club gatherings and dinners as well as a really comfortable place for friends to meet. It even has a piano for the musically minded!
At the opposite end to the restaurant, the Club Room can be either a convivial and relaxing place for friends or small groups to meet, or it can be the venue for more formal Club gatherings and dinners.It has a lovely warm atmosphere and when suitably laid out can seat up to 30 for a formal dinner.

Dining
Report
There's something for everyone at The Dering Arms; A superb a la carte fish menu for more formal meals and blackboard specials that change regularly. Delicious local delicacies to tempt your palate. Whilst we specialise in award-winning seafood there's plenty of choice for non seafood lovers. We love a culinary challege.

The wine cellar at The Dering Arms is renowned for its quality and variety. It's no accident. Many happy hours have been spent discovering rare vintages in partnership with the very best wine merchants and seeking out mystery bin ends and dusty old ports at auction.
It takes a certain dedication and much hard work for a wine cellar like that of The Dering Arms to be laid down and the enthusiasm with which it has been developed shows in the quality and rarity of wines kept in its cellars.Most don't appear on any other pub's wine list. Ideally, decide what you would like to eat and then select a wine to suit.
