The Brenchley, Maidstone town centre

Located in the centre of the county town, Maidstone's newest pub has built up a reputation for it's busy beer garden since opening in 2013.

Formerly the Natwest and Kentish Bank building, this social hub has an extensive south-facing beer garden which proves a great spot to enjoy a pint and get some sun.Easy to find, at Maidstone's Jubilee Square, on the High Street, this pub offers good food and real beers, with four regular ales on tap, and space for two guest beers.

The architecture of the building's original features has been restored, showing the huge oak columns and panels, along with a central glass dome inside.The beer garden is largely covered, with a second bar located between two decking areas, meaning guests won't have to travel far to get the next round.
