The Tudor Rose in Medway

Great service by Soph and Jo enhanced by tasty food, and a cosy traditional pub in a quaint setting. The ladies made extra effort to chat to our children and make them feel special. Alongside the broad menu and specials, there's also a full vegitarian and vegan menu, kids options, and light lunch choices.

Found this little gem by complete accident one Sunday afternoon. The service by the young waitresses is superb, they cannot do enough for you and I felt like nothing was a problem. Had the fish and chips which was a good sized portion and the most delicious homemade baileys cheesecake. Would definitely return.

Big shout out to Soph it was so busy and she gave 100% customer service. Food was great, good value for money and very tasty

Great service at this traditional village pub. Great venue to visit after a river or woodland walk nearby

Excellent Sunday Lunch, reasonably priced. Excellent service. Landlady most welcoming and friendly as were all the staff. Great atmosphere and surroundings. Highly recommended.

Tudor Rose is a quaint old traditional pub in the ancient village of Upnor on the Medway estuary with good food, a good selection of draft beer and friendly staff. What else could you ask for?

Always a lovely friendly place to go. Soph is amazing, funny and friendly. Food and specials are great! Would recommend

A hidden gem...we've been 4 times the summer and it's such a great little pub...amazing food, staff super friendly, music is great and the garden is a lovely space with ducks! Definitely recommend and will be a firm favourite of ours.

This is a smashing pub, and the food was good overall,

Lovely old pub, good pints. Well worth repeat visits.

Beautiful area and pub. Lovely garden and space in the summer months, ducks wondering around the garden while sipping away on a beer. Staff always friendly and the food (quite pricey) is always fresh and on point.

Second visit to this charming pub in a month. We were a party of six this time and all our meals came out together and were piping hot. Food was tasty, menu and special boards gave a good choice, added bonus was the lovely presentation. The staff were very attentive and sweet, highly recommend and we will be back xx

This pub continues to be the standard bearer for the Medway Towns. Great atmosphere in a fabulous setting full of history and charm. The roast was first class and the beer just right. Served by staff who are clearly passionate about finding that fine balance between professional and friendly.

Lovely garden. Staff so helpful

Really friendly service from Soph and Jo. Garden is a delight with Alabama and Clarence the ducks! Food excellent. Thank you!

Went to the Tudor Rose with my father in law one Saturday. We didn’t book and turned up just before the kitchen closed which was a shame but the staff were very nice and told us light bites would be available shortly. They came out with the menus as soon as we could order and the food came out quickly and was very good. We spent quite a few hours there and really enjoyed it. Amazing location, pretty pub, big beer garden, highly recommended.

Booked a table for 4 for my wife's birthday, with our kids, turned up and they said they not got the booking. We had proof of the call on the mobile. The older dark haired bar maid was very dismissive and not at all apologetic about their mistake, and did not offer to sort something out. Literally the worse customer service we've ever experienced in the local area.

I had a meal at the Tudor Rose last Wednesday evening. I had a steak and stout pie with a selection of veg. The pie was one of the nicest I have had.

Great spot for food in a lovely area. The meal was lovely in the garden and Ash our waitress was very accommodating. Would definitely recommend

Small friendly pub with large garden Fish and chips great

Booked a mid week table at the Tudor to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The food and service were excellent. Had a couple of drinks at the bar and Ashley took us through to our table that they had decorated which was a really nice touch. Food was really good, I had the prawn cocktail to start & Nicky had Halloumi both lovely. For main I fancied the fish and chips and it was lovely and really good size. Nicky had the fish which she said was excellent. Throughout the evening Ashley checked we were ok for drinks and if anything we needed. Had a lovely evening, shame the sun didn’t fancy making an appearance as would have been nice to sit in the lovely garden.

Lovely friendly service, great ambience, fantastic food, quaint setting, a gem in the middle of the chaos of Chatham, Strood and Rochester. Very close to Upnor Castle. We will definitely go back again.

My third time visiting and the food has never dissapointed. My inlaws love coming here. A very pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. Staff always friendly and helpful.

Rudest staff I've ever come across in a pub! Especially near an attraction. I went in the pub around 2:45 (website says kitchen closes at 3) and asked if I could order a baguette. The barmaid told me the kitchen was shut so I couldn't order. I was on my own and wasn't looking for hot food, so I couldn't see the issue. I didn't say anything to her and waited for her to take my drink order instead. She walked out of the bar area out the back and just left me standing at the bar for a good 5 minutes, so I left and went to the Kings Arms. Staff much more friendly and amiable

Popped in for some lunch as my brother said it’s really nice. We took my mum and had fish n chips, she had ham, egg n chips! Food was very nice and filled us all up. Very clean and tidy and staff were very friendly and attentive without being over the top. Definitely will be back Thank you

Easily my favourite Pub in the world, The Tudor Rose is so much more than just a Pub and restaurant, it’s an institution. This last Saturday they advertised a “bottomless brunch” and, by gosh, did we get what we were promised, and then some! With the most incredible service and energy, Mark & Linda, the evergreen owners, were the finest hosts. Then Ashley, Jo and Holly literally sprinted from table to table in their fully booked garden, to make sure that every single patron’s glasses never ran empty. Ever! Add to that the most delectable charcuterie platters, cheeses, cold meats, biscuits and garnish and the guests were simply spoilt. Never closed, always something special, and served with love and passion, this is a destination Pub that you need to book in your schedule!

Best service I’ve had in long time. Roasts typically have something that lets them down but this was truly delicious. Also the staff were brilliant, warm to my 5yr old and very friendly. Would recommend!

Had a lovely lunch in the garden today . Never even knew they had a garden such a little gem. The service was perfect as was the food and wine.

A typical pub and a warm welcome!

Nice little pub with friendly service!

Great local pup wonderful atmosphere with great service and fantastic staff good choice of meal's

3 adults and a 2 year old. Lunch superb as was the friendly efficient service. Lovely garden with ducks roaming freely. Will definitely be back.

Great pub, lovely atmosphere, great food, garden (with ducks😀)and friendly staff, highly recommended , regularly visited here when lived locally.

A cold damp Monday afternoon ,after a recommendation from our Son ,we met for lunch. Quite busy already shows its popularity. Good choice upon menu . Food very good ,well cooked and very tasty. Very good beer selections. The circa 17th century décor delightful , large garden area to rear. Despite living within Medway my wife and I had never visited before but will now return. Adjacent to Upnor Castle the nearest FREE parking is approx. 100 yards away via a cobbled slope. Can imagine it would be very busy in good weather. Lovely view of the river Medway too.

Extremely rude staff. The waitress was very unfriendly and made us feel very unwelcome. The beer I was offered was warm and she refused to let us try another one when it was mentioned. I'm utterly surprised by the attitude of the staff of such a famous place.

Great lunch here very good service and good wine 😀

Great food and service. Defo going again

Went for dinner at the Tudor Rose to celebrate my graduation on Friday 22nd. I went with my husband and my parents and we were all equally impressed with our meal choices. Two of us had the Tudor burger which was cooked perfectly and had the best chips I’ve ever had, my mum had the homemade steak and ale pie (delicious-we all had a try) and my dad had the sea bass which he said was the best he’d had. Everything was cooked perfectly, the staff and the owners were attentive but didn’t interrupt us and were lovely and polite and great to chat with when we had a drink at the bar. We had two puddings, a crumble and the bread and butter pudding. It was all spot on and really reasonably priced too. It can’t wait to come back and particularly in the warmer weather because the garden is beautiful and the pub is in such a lovely setting. What a little gem 💎

Three of us booked for Sunday 25th Feb, we all enjoyed a baked camembert starter, roast dinners, desserts and drinks, served promptly and efficiently, the food was great and we had a wonderful time catching up as friends. Great little pub, very busy with happy diners, will be visiting again soon! Thank you 🙏

A lovely little pub beside the river. Last minute booking for Sunday lunch, The Tudor Rose did not disappoint! I had the roast beef with all the trimmings and a side order of cheesy leeks, the veg was absolutely lovely, tasted home made and not mass produced. My husband had a mixed roast board and enjoyed his just as much. The 2 ladies that served us were very friendly and attentive asking us several times if everything was ok. Will definitely return

Good food .need to book a table as very busy on Sunday, they take £5 deposit .thats when I realised we were at the wrong tutor rose but the staff was very helpful and squeeze us in . Thank you 😊

Love this little hidden gem. Staff are so welcoming, food is good quality and portions sizes are good with a great selection of beers, ales, wines and spirits. Thoroughly recommend this place!!

This is a tranquil spot for a family stop in Medway lovely staff dogs are welcome woff . We had a lovely meal and nothing was too much . If your lucky enough to see the ducks out back amazing public house

Great Sunday lunch. I booked Sunday lunch for me and my wife, Fabulous service, Our food arrived very efficiently after ordering and was superb. We were very well looked after, Going back next Sunday.

A cosy pub very much in the old style, small rooms narrow passages, but lovely staff and guests. Situated in a narrow cobbled street. If you like history there is nothing not to like

Thank you. A perfect Inn. I found good company and ate very well.

Very good food. Good vegetarian options.

Great location, great service great food. Staff amazing and friendly..

An amazing meal at an amazing place. Staff super friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit. Will be going back very soon. Oh dog friendly also..

Been to the Tudor Rose on a number of occasions, latest a week ago. It has a friendly atmosphere and the food is always cooked to perfection, the staff just goes that little bit extra in making it an enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend this pub for any family occasions.

Visited on 31st December for a birthday meal. An adult and childs chicken roast was ordered plus two seafood platters and a prawn ploughman's. Expected really nice food from the description but it was really disappointing and not a great experience for a costly birthday treat. Shame as I have visited in the summer and ordered from the lunch menu. The food and service was much better then.

Cosy little pub with fantastic service and selection, we made an unannounced visit on New Years Eve and were greeted with a smile and escorted to a lovely little table, drinks ordered placed and menus provided. We were lucking the roasts were available with great portion size and quality products, somehow we even found room for dessert! Fantastic find and we will be back in 2024 to sample more fantastic food and brilliant service

Lovely cosy pub, friendly staff and good food. If you have accessibility issues you might struggle, but apart from that it’s a great place.

Fabulous meal on Christmas Day! Food was delicious! Brilliant atmosphere, 3 course meal, with Bucks Fizz. A choice of mains, we had the traditional Turkey which was beautiful, loads of veg all really tasty. Great portion size, took some meat home for the dogs so they were happy. Brilliant lunch and the all the staff made it a fantastic day.

We had our Christmas meal today and it was lovely. The food was great, the staff lovely as ever and I would definitely go back for an Xmas meal again if you will have me lol Merry Christmas to all the staff at the Tudor Rose x

What a great dog friendly pub, we didn't get the chance to try the food but it looked amazing. Great large fireplaces to keep you warm, really quirky layout with various rooms, The staff were really nice and friendly even though they were really busy nothing was too much trouble.

We booked the back room for 15 people to celebrate my sons 30th The landlords Mark and Linda were brilliant, from the moment the guests arrived, everyone was made so welcome. The staff helped in putting up the banners, balloons and delivery of the Birthday cake, which considering was a very busy Sunday afternoon for them, was amazing. The Sunday roasts were excellent and delivered at the same time for all 15 of us ! Thank you.

We booked Sunday lunch for a family birthday celebration. Fabulous service, a very varied menu catering for all individual requirements. Our food arrived very efficiently after ordering and was superb. We were very well looked after, checking if we wanted drinks, any sauces with meal.. a lovely touch for my daughter was the surprise of a plated pudding with a candle and writing which was so nice. Thank you Linda and Mark and all the staff for a truly enjoyable and yummy lunch..we will definitely be back.

Great food great pints Service topped both..... Joanne (( Canadian Lindsay )) made the visit fantastic best pub visit on this trip SEE YOU IN MAY !! Cheers Nick Holden

Very good for an outdoor meal - great food and a charming garden.

Very good for an outdoor meal - great food and a beautiful garden. The friendly ducks are a charming addition!

Historic, atmospheric pub. Delicious, generously portioned lunch. Friendly, welcoming staff and patrons. Convenient carpark nearby. The pub is on a cobbled street featuring interesting architecture. Upnor Castle and river close by. I am looking forward to dining at the Tudor Rose again.

Fabulous food and excellent service, have been there several times and look forward to many more visits - so good 😊

This wonderful pub fits will within this delightful small village. The local home's display a past history. The lunch was excellent the bar staff were very friendly. The decor was very stylish as just before Halloween. Will certainly return 👌

My favourite pub near my parents home. Always loved this place but since Mark and his team have been in charge it just gets better and better. Lovely dog friendly staff, great pints of whitstable lager and an awesome pie. Definitely recommend. I found out today vaping is against the rules so busted the geese in the lovely garden which wasn’t so bad.

Had lunch here with my mother, the service was second to none, parking is a bit of a pain, but well worth it, the food was well cooked and excellent portions, everyone was friendly and helpful, we will be returning.

Beautiful C17th, atmospheric pub, hospitable & friendly staff. Good food plus treats for the dog. Really enjoyed it. Thank you! Will return to visit Upnor Castle (Didn’t see rooms so can’t comment)

Great local place. Lovely food and friendly staff. Dog friendly with a deceptively large beer garden. Well kept secret and best to book for n advance of you want food.

Lovely country pub with a warm homely feel and a cosy fire to sit next too. Staff are friendly and attentive and the food is excellent

Excellent service and great food as always Polite and friendly staff. Nice ambiance, characterful building. Lovely garden. Clean.

Came for food this afternoon with friends . Amazing food and great environment for all ages. Very helpful staff .

We booked for our family of eleven, four of which were young grandchildren. From the moment we walked in, we felt comfortable. We were greeted with a smile from the barman who offered us a drink straight away. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the table...

A lovely lunch with friends here. The food was great, reasonably priced and served by charming staff. Nothing was too much trouble. We sat outside which was lovely in the sunshine . We will definitely return to this pub in this pretty village.

We've eaten in a number of places in Medway... It is without doubt the best meal we've had to date... Thank you Tudor Rose

Had Sunday lunch, it was excellent, if you value quantity over quality then you will be disappointed, that's not to say portions are small they are not. Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding,roast potatoes, broccoli, carrots, peas, red cabbage and gravy all cooked beautifully. Rhubarb crumble with fresh cream for dessert, again beautiful. Table staff excellent, unobtrusive yet attentive. Prices very reasonable given todays financial circumstances. Plenty of outdoor seating including covered and open plus heating when conditions required. Would and do thoroughly recommend.

A truly beautiful hidden gem. We attended a pagen wedding here and it was so relaxed and lovely in the garden. Through the wedding the staff all came and watched which I thought was a lovely touch. There is plenty of seating it's very relaxed clean and staff were all lovely definitely recommend and will be back

This place is without doubt one of the best pubs in Medway... We are real foodie's and have eaten in many places around Medway, paid far more than we did today....

Nice relaxed place.. everyone, including the staff, was really friendly. Will hopefully visit again..

Amazing quirky pub . Food was wonderful and service brilliant. Beautiful setting . From the moment we walked in the staff could not do enough , helpful and really friendly. This little pub is a unique and such a find . Lovely chilled atmosphere, amazing...
