Rex Waller

It’s with a very heavy heart I announce the passing of Rex Waller – Uncle Rex – a very longtime customer, a dear friend and a true gentleman. Rex had his first pint in The Unicorn in mid May 1944 just before shipping off to join the flotilla for the D-Day invasions, he mentioned this many times as he thought he may not return, but return he did and frequented the pub on and off ever since. Rex always had a kind word and sound advice, he will be sorely missed but always remembered. Rest in peace Rex. We will have a large Highland Park in your memory, sir.



Pub of the Year 2014 – Winner!

We’ve done it again!

We are proud to say that we have once again been named CAMRA Pub of the Year 2014 for the Canterbury, Herne Bay and Whitstable area.

We were lucky enough to be named winners in 2006 and were awarded joint Bronze last year and are really glad to be back in the top spot again.

We like to think it’s down to our focus on local suppliers for our food and our well crafted, well kept local ales. We are lucky to have a ‘guest pump’ which means we have an ever changing catalogue of ale from local suppliers of our choice!
