• Gastro Pub • Tenterden

Booked 7 times today

The Ferry Inn is a serendipitous country public house with welcoming staff, character rooms, candlelight, open fires, real ales, popular foods and fantastic sunsets. A 17th Century former smugglers haunt-- this is a pretty little pub in a lovely marshland setting with tables and benches on the front terrace and in the back alongside the riverbank. Inside it's very easygoing and chatty. The main bar has hop-draped painted beams, a green dado, and stools against the bar where they serve a beer called Oxney Ale specially brewed for the pub by Westerham Brewery. To the right is a cosy eating area with wheelback chairs-- ideal for a banquette with friends around a few long tables.

On entering the Radnor Arms we were greeted warmly, shown to our table and presented with a well curated menu. The ambience was relaxing and our waiting staff were very attentive and friendly. The dishes chosen were delicious, especially the Lemongrass Laksa & Basque cheesecake. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back.

Our evening at The Ferry was lovely. The food was exceptional, staff were attentive ,helpful ,friendly and knowledgeable. We sat in the bar end and with hindsight , may have chosen the restaurant end , just because 2 of our party are quite deaf and found the proximity of other diners a little noisy. It in no way detracted from the cosy and welcoming atmosphere and we will be returning to this Isle of Oxney gem.
