Located in the village area of town, the Compasses is acknowledged to be the oldest in Tunbridge Wells dating from the early 17th century. Two separate bars are characterised by wooden flooring, beams, open fireplaces and a wood burner. The main bar has sectioned-off spaces for seating and dining and a quieter snug is found beyond. A sunny front terrace and a verdant rear garden are available for the warmer months. Weekly quizzes and live music entertainment are detailed on their website.
