he Wrotham Arms is just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Broadstairs's historic centre and the beautiful Viking Bay. Dating back to the 1800s, the Arms has always been a favourite with locals - friendly and comfortable, we have well-kept ales and a good lager selection. The spacious open plan bar also has a welcoming log fire in the winter. This is a great base for exploring the town, which is steeped in history and has strong connections with Charles Dickens. We've been offering accommodation since 1870, and our excellent value en-suite family and standard single or double rooms are available all year round. The Wrotham Arms is the premier live music venue in Broadstairs, with live music several nights a week as well as the occasional weekend afternoon. The pub is an official venue of the town's two annual music festivals, Broadstairs Folk Week in August and the Broadstairs Blues Bash in February. Check out our gig guide for upcoming events.
