Regional Manager's Thoughts

The new publicans must have a good food background and ability to engage with the international guest as well as the local regulars. A great social media presence is essential along with a great marketing plan. The pub has won several awards in 2022 so it is already a well-established business. The signed swimmers’ walls have attracted international and celebrity guests. Combined with great food, a selection of good wines, ales, craft beers, quality lagers and a fantastic service, these features have raised the White Horse to become the premium go to pub in Dover.

Surrounding Area

Dover is a town and major ferry port in Kent. The pub is located in an area that attracts many tourists and is surrounded by guest houses as well as private residential houses and offices.
