Last night we were honoured to be named Kent County Winner at the National Pub & Bar Awards 2026 thank you . Recognition like this is never about one person. It is the result of hundreds of little moments, every single day, delivered by an incredible team who genuinely care about what they do.

A huge thank you to every member of the Leicester Arms team for their hard work, commitment and passion. Special thanks to Tom Alexander Haacke our General Manager, for his leadership and dedication, and to Adam Turley and the kitchen team for consistently producing food that we’re incredibly proud of.

We’re also hugely grateful to our guests, locals and supporters who continue to choose us, recommend us and champion what we do.

This award belongs to all of you.

Here’s to continuing to raise the bar and proving that it’s the little things that make the large difference.
