The Pilot sits within one of the most unique settings in the country, the shingle desert of Dungeness. The sea is a stone’s throw away and views extend to the White Cliffs and France.

This busy family friendly pub is renowned for its fish and chips but also a wide range of other freshly-cooked dishes. National nature reserve, RSPB bird sanctuary Dungeness nuclear power station are nearby.

Please note:

Due to persistent abuse of our hospitality, the maximum stay in our car park is three hours, unless specifically agreed with The Pilot Management, all offenders will incur a £200 fine. The car park is monitored by 24 hour ANPR CCTV and all number plates are logged with number plate recognition. Parking monitoring and enforcement is managed by ANPR Parking Control.

Information for this venue is provided by the Ashford Folkestone & Romney Marsh Branch of CAMRA
