The Four Candles

The Four Candles is Britain's Smallest Brewpub (not the smallest pub, not the smallest brewery - just the smallest proper micropub that is also a proper microbrewery. We sell an ever-changing selection of our own beers as well as a small range of Biddenden wines, ciders and fruit juices. Ashmore cheese, Kentish pork pies and Black Country pork scratchings. Or a cup of tea or coffee if you insist. No bar, no till, no TV, no piped music. And no lager (as we're not able to make that). Just conversation and good company. We're open every evening and all day Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.

I was recommended to visit this bar and it did not disappoint. On my own but was made to feel very welcome by the girl serving the drinks and indeed the customers who were in the bar. Great beer

Stayed in Dover for a couple of nights with a mate and we loved this gem of a micropub, Keith and Debbie could not have been more friendly or welcoming and the beer was top notch and very reasonably priced. Great place to have a proper conversation and unwind and the choice of drinks available very impressive. So glad we found this haven, near to the railway station. Can't wait to return. Thank you both. Mick & Martin

Breakwater Brewery & Taproom

Reviewed By laurakL2709TY - London, United Kingdom

Dovers best brewery/pub by a mile! Their ales and ciders are amazing and so tasty (I would highly recommend their honeydew melon cider or elderflower). The pizzas are incredible too - made in a stone oven and many to choose from.

I had brought this tour for my partners birthday. We were both a bit sceptical on our journey to the brewery, but we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Jenny our tour guide was charming and informative and was able to answer any questions. We were able to try a selection of beers and ales I would definitely recommend this tour to friends/ family and anyone who enjoys a good beer or ale.
