About us

Heart Of The Country

Bursting with character, The Coach has recently been fully refurbished with a brand new restaurant, large garden & relaxing bar area; serving traditional Kentish cask ale, distinctive international lagers and Kentish wines by the glass.

The History of The Coach

The Beginning

Formally known as The Coach & Horses, it has been a much-loved pub in Hacklinge for nearly 50 years.

Due to the location between Deal & Sandwich, it has for many years been referred to as the "Halfway House."

Surrounded by rolling fields & countryside, we're ideally located only a short drive from Sandwich, Deal Town Centre, Seafront & Pier.
