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 W
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.
The West End Tavern Pub and Restaurant is a Grade 2 listed building with original beams and fixtures, but has been extended allowing it to thrive as a country pub and restaurant. The West End Tavern Pub and Restaurant in Marden retains its unique character and all important atmosphere and ambience which makes it popular with families of all generations.
Marden is located centrally in Kent, making the West End Tavern an ideal country stop off for lunch, dinner or a refreshing drink. Only 8 miles from Maidstone and Tonbridge, and with Ashford, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells, Rye and Hastings, just a short distance away the West End Tavern is ideal for travelling to many landmarks of interest across the Kent countryside.

Fantastic food, quick service, friendly staff! Deffo a first choice for a Sunday roast!
Very nice pub and new management are great. All staff are very friendly are welcoming. Glad to call this our local
I’ve personally had a few meals in the West End and have always found the meals, service and customer service impeccable, and because of this I decided to treat my 4 year olds birthday dinner to this establishment, including 9 others of my family members. I can honestly say from all that ate and drunk in the West End we were overwhelmed with the service and treatment we all received so thank you Emma and Del for accommodating us and making our/my sons end of day beautiful ! Thank you once again for being genuine and caring publicans 👍 Top work to you both and I hope and trust your proud, as you should be 🙏💪
After having a very long day at work I decided to pop into the West End Tavern to have some good old pub grub. I chose the Cheese burger with chips and it was delicious and cooked to perfection. I would also like to add that the staff were really friendly and welcoming as well as being extremely sufficient and professional. I highly recommend this place and will certainly be eating more of this awesome and very reasonably priced food 👍
Nice pub, certainly seemed popular for lunch on our visit. Also has a good size outside space when the weather is warmer (although did also have a couple of outside heaters even if it isn't warm!) We had a few drinks and the staff seemed friendly - nice touch that they noticed us finishing a drink and offered to get more. Will come again another day and try food...!
