The West End Tavern is a Pub and Restaurant set in a very picturesque area within the “Garden of England”, Kent. We are situated on the Goudhurst Road at the West End of Marden village located only a short drive from Maidstone, Tonbridge, and Tunbridge Wells.

Originally built in the 18th century, the West End Tavern Pub and Restaurant is located on the site of the Old Forge in Marden, where ale has been sold since the 1800s. The West End Tavern quickly became the most popular “beer house” among the local Kent Hop Pickers in the 1940s to 1950s.

    We were staying locally and just wanted a nice easy meal out. The pub was very warm and welcoming, with a small but good choice of ale! The food choice was good, but best of all, it was served promptly, hot, and with hardly any added salt! We had been to a few pubs recently where the food is inedible due the amount of salt! Lovely to have the choice to add it if we want it, well done chef! Will definitely visit again when next in the area

    The food was very basic (Sunday Roast Beef with 3 mixes veg ) -- a little tasteless and to be honest I could have done better my self Value for money -- fair but would have paid more for a better meal
