Welcome to The Moody Mare, nestled on the edge of Mereworth woods where we offer a variety of settings for everyone to enjoy.
Be it the classic country pub bar with real ale direct from the cask, the cosy restaurant, the lodge or the stunning heated Tipi's set in our private paddock.
Privately owned for twenty plus years and having evolved from classic English restaurant, Rosette tasting menus, full A la carte we have now settled on classic gastropub fayre.
Using our own Dry agers we age all of our red meats and pork, working with seasonal game and providing seafood dishes from an experienced team of chefs.
We hope to welcome you soon to the last remaining freehouse of five that used to be in and around the village.

I have driven past this public house on several occasions but have never specifically driven here for a visit. So on this occasion it was planned that we would have lunch here and sample some of its ales. From the very moment we entered the premises, we were warmly greeted by Jennifer and allocated a table, as we intended to have something to eat. They have a wide menu selection and I chose the mussels as a main course. The meals were served up in a timely fashion and I have to say they are probably the tastiest mussels that I have ever eaten. We were waited on in a very professional and pleasant manner by Jennifer, Angela and Paul, and they all made us very welcome and comfortable , checking on us now and then to see if we wanted any more drinks and of course, pudding! Our visit was most enjoyable and pleasant and we will definitely be coming back again and I will have no hesitation in recommending this pub/restaurant to my family and friends. What a hidden jewel! You must pop in if ever you’re passing. You won’t be disappointed!!!
Lovely place to go anytime, had lunch in this lovely country pub. I live in London and there are no country pubs like this. Nice ambience with the fairy lights and Christmas tree. Service was warm and friendly , we didn't have to wait long for them to take our orders and the food was nice.
We booked for our work Christmas party choosing from the Christmas menu. We sat in the tipi area which was beautifully decorated, lovely and warm and the tables weren’t too close together. Food was delicious and plentiful, we even requested a small menu change for one person which was done for us. The staff were rushed off their feet but we never felt forgotten and everyone thoroughly enjoyed our evening complementing the manager and passing on our thanks to the chef for the food, in particular the amazing roast potatoes! We would definitely book here again.
I was a bit wary as I saw a few reviews about food not being great/bad service but I could not disagree more! The staff were so lovely and attentive and the atmosphere was exactly what you’d expect of a quaint country pub. It felt very cosy and tucked away. The food was traditional and delicious, especially the mushroom lasagne (vegetarian options were exciting and different!). The portions were very generous.
Food is amazing, service was brilliant, look forward to returning
