Pub of the Year 2020
This Ancient Boro', Tenterden
Reopened in July 2018 as an Ale House & Tapas Bar, This Ancient Boro’ was previously known as the Honeymoon Chinese Restaurant. Up until 1968, the site had, for many years, been a Whitbread Public House and known as This Ancient Boro’, therefore, having acquired the site in May 2018, it seemed only right that it should return to its former name.
