Christmas Time in

Tunbridge Wells

Time to Celebrate

Our pretty pub, in the heart of Royal Tunbridge Wells, is the best place to celebrate Christmas 2024.

There’s no place better on Planet Earth (or possibly the universe) to indulge in some festive tomfoolery. With beautifully decorated spaces, buzzing vibes, totally toast-able wines (the fancy kind) and all your favourite festive foods galore.

This Christmas you are spoilt for choice with our private party spaces and delicious dining packages– all spot-on for hosting large (or small) get-togethers.

If you’re already dreaming of those tempting Christmas eats, feast your eyes on our super-stuffed Christmas food menus (jam-packed with all traditional treats ) and our Christmas Sharing Boards (perfect for those casual drinks & nibbles parties).

T's and C's

Festive Food

From seasonal salty nibbles, to more traditional treats, our kitchen team cook up a storm at Christmas time. Oozey Camemberts with plenty of bread for dipping, piles of crisp roast potatoes and gallons of gravy. Christmas is that oh-go-on-then time of the year and we’re here for it.

Christmas Drinks

Cheers-able occasions are around every corner at Christmas time. Winter cocktails, hot mulled wine, and that ultimate kick-the-party-off glass of bubbly. We’ve got a bucket-load of choice when it comes to drinks – whatever tickles your tinsel.

Party Time

Christmas drinks with the girls, the office knees-up, plus those post-work pints (after joyfully clicking on the ‘Out of Office’) and big family feasts. There’s a million-and-one reasons to come together to celebrate this Christmas.

Christmas Events

It’s that bottle-popping time of year. And you don’t need a reason to pop into your favourite Tunbridge Wells pub. But, with Christmas quizzes, festive feast-ing and an epic New Year’s Eve party, you’re going to have a calendar packed with unmissable Christmas events.

Party in The Orangery

This part of the pub really comes alive at Christmas time. Private cocktail bar, adorable twinkly lights, classic Christmas decorations, plus heaters, fluffy blankets (perfect for cosy-ing up under).

Exclusive hire for up to 100 guests standing / 70 seated.

Fay, Dec 2023

We have just finished our (belated) work Christmas Meal at The White Bear. The food was excellent and the service by Connor and his team was fantastic. We were a party of 20, so had pre-booked. It was easy to organise and the whole team there were extremely helpful.

Bec, Jan 2024

We had an amazing experience as a table of four on Christmas day. The food and service were both exceptional, such a lot of food for the price. The atmosphere in the whole pub was great and we had a wonderful time.
