We’re looking for a special new operator to take on our much-loved Victorian pub in one of Faversham’s most prominent locations after an extensive refurbishment – The Railway Hotel 🍻

The hotel in Preston Street has been welcoming customers since the 1850s and has recently undergone a sympathetic refurbishment, with improvements including a refreshed centrepiece bar, new furniture, redecorated interiors and renovated flooring.

Its six guest rooms have also been redecorated and its striking entrance lobby reflects the building’s historic significance while ensuring it retains a welcoming feel.

Outside, there’s an extensive courtyard beer garden, which is often buzzing with live music, and an outside bar.

There is also a restaurant area and kitchen, capable of serving up to 70 covers, as well as private accommodation.

The Railway Hotel is currently under brewery management while we find the right licensee. They could sign up on a Partnership agreement, which is a tenancy with enhanced support.

Dan Sidders, our Head of Tenanted Business Partnerships, said: “The Railway represents a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious and hands-on publican, with strong food, drink and accommodation experience and a clear vision for marketing, events and community engagement, to make their mark in Faversham.”

Get in touch with our Tenancy Recruitment Team on 01795 542132 or [email protected].

To celebrate National Beer Day, we're showcasing one of our favourite annual traditions - our Home Brew Challenge.

Each year, our brewery and pub teams are invited to create their own beer using a home-brewing kit we supply and design a label to match, all for the chance to win the coveted Home Brew Challenge trophy. 🏆

This year saw 16 entries, packed with creativity, bold flavours… and a few questionable ones too! 👀 Plus the odd keg explosion along the way!

Congratulations to our Customer Services Team, who took the crown with ‘Roobarb & Flustard’. We're looking forward to doing it all again next year! 🍻

🍸 Happy World Gin Day! 🍸

To celebrate, we're raising a glass to one of the all-time great gin cocktails - the Negroni! 🍊

Bold, bittersweet and beautifully balanced, our Negroni is made with Copper Rivet Distillery Dockyard Gin, a contemporary take on traditional naval gin. With citrus and floral notes, gentle spice, and a smooth finish, it's a gin that works wonderfully in this classic cocktail.

Crafted in Chatham from locally grown grain and a carefully selected blend of botanicals, Dockyard Gin delivers exceptional depth and character in every sip. ⚓

We're really pleased to partner with Copper Rivet and showcase a fantastic local gin that we're proud to serve.

Watch our reel to learn how to make a Negroni at home, or if you’d rather, enjoy one in our pubs!
