Our Story

A pub that
feels like home

โœฆ

Named after King George himself, The George Inn stands at the heart of Newnham on the edge of the beautiful Kent Downs. Step through our red door into a world of low oak beams, drying hops, flickering firelight, and the kind of warm welcome only a proper English country pub can offer.

We take honest pride in time-honoured recipes, the finest Kentish ingredients, and the hospitality that keeps our regulars coming back week after week. Whether it's a leisurely Sunday roast or a midweek supper โ€” you'll always find your place here.

A Royal Heritage

Named after
the King

โœฆ

The George Inn takes its name from King George himself โ€” a proud nod to our place in the long history of this ancient corner of Kent. Pubs bearing the Royal name were places of community, comfort, and good cheer.

Today we carry that heritage forward โ€” in the hops that hang from our beams, the Shepherd Neame ales that flow from our taps, and the spirit of welcome that greets every soul who steps through our door.
