Traditional Hospitality at The White Rabbit

Of all the pubs in Maidstone, The White Rabbit is surely the best place to make the most of our weather (come rain or shine) - with a delicious meal, a thirst quenching drink and the cherished company of family and friends. Soak up the warmest of welcomes and explore some of the most popular pub food menus in Kent. Try one of our hugely satisfying seasonal dishes with a glass of fine wine or sample a rewarding pint of our regularly changing and highly quaffable cask-conditioned real ales.

A Little Pub History

Built in 1797 as a reaction to the threat of Napoleon, the White Rabbit occupies what used to be the officer's quarters of the Invicta Barracks. By 1813, the barracks along the Sandling Road were used to train the cavalry's young horses and twenty years later they became the Army Riding School.

Charming Local Accommodation

Our 12 bedroom Innkeeper's Lodge opened in 2005, and since then we have attracted locals and travellers visiting Kent's capital town as well as diners and drinkers from Maidstone and nearby Tovil, Weavering and Bearstead. We regularly welcome business and leisure travellers who enjoy some of the best accommodation in Kent.

Around The Area

Dating from 1796, our colonial-style pub was bought from the National Trust and is a copy of the old American White House. Today our guests find our large, attractive gardens part of its appeal.
