The Dirty Habit

A child and dog friendly pub serving food with WiFi and a garden in Maidstone.

Details

The Dirty Habit is a beautiful 11th Century pub situated in the picturesque Kentish village of Hollingbourne. Set on The Pilgrims Way in a designated area of natural beauty, with many walks and bike rides from the pub, it has been used by pilgrims on their way to Canterbury for centuries. It is reputed that King James II stayed at the inn whilst on his way to France via Canterbury and Dover. Full of period charm and character we have undertaken a complete restoration of the building, keeping the unique period features intact. We offer a varied selection of freshly prepared food all day every day, both traditional English as well as continental specialties using local suppliers whenever possible to support the local farming community. For those special occasions we can offer a private dining service in a beautiful period room 'The Monks Corner' with oak beams to the apex and an inglenook fireplace to set it all off.

	Ball Puller	4	Musket Brewery
The epitome of a premier Kentish Bitter. Tasting Notes: Admire its captivating colour, before the aroma of finest hops entices you to savour the smoothness and lingering after taste, leaving you wanting more of this most excellent beer!
	Sharp's Doom Bar Amber Ale	4.0	Sharp's Brewery Ltd
Doom Bar is a perfectly balanced beer combining subtle yet complex flavours, Doom Bar is both satisfying and deliciously moreish. Tasting Notes: “The aroma of Doom Bar combines an accomplished balance of spicy resinous hop, inviting sweet malt and delicate roasted notes. The mouth feel is a perfectly balanced and complex blend of succulent dried fruit, lightly roasted malty notes and a subtle yet assertive bitterness. The bitterness remains into the finish with dry fruity notes which implore the drinker to go back for more.” Stuart Howe, Head Brewer.
