"We have eaten in this pub many times over the last 10 years when it was a Free House, it has always been a gem and a pleasure until now, it has been taken over by Shepherd Neame brewery, they certainly know how to ruin a previously good pub. Staff were friendly and attentive but lacking knowledge in food. The meals we ordered were over priced, poor quality, the smoked salmon fillet looked like something from Tesco, the veg wasn't present and the meal was tasteless, the scampi was all batter, fries average and no tartar sauce as they had run out, £19 for the salmon, £16 for the scampi, such a pity! We won't be eating here again. They're trading on the beautiful location of pub on a beach, apart from that it has nothing else to offer."

Cosy and friendly pub with really lovely owners. They lit the log fire to dry my coat after a wet hike.

Lovely staff, service was impeccable. 10/10 would recommend to a friend. Waiting staff were excellent and efficient and food was good too. View menu

Beyond hideous pricing for two glasses of post-mix Coca Cola amounting to £8.00 topped off by charmless and inattentive customer service. Appalling all in all.

Disappointing. Plougams small pickles, bland cheese and ham and some sort of terrine? 2 small quarters of bread, no butter, £16. Plus, burger and small amount of chips, poor value. Loved the location though.

We’ve been going here off and on for years. Always a beautiful spot with nice staff and very average food. Todays fish and chips Ea the best thing I’ve ever eaten here. We’ll be coming here a lot more as we’re about to move to Deal. Reading these reviews I can understand that a lot of people don’t like the changes. But from my experience today, it’s good and will hopefully go from strength to strength in the coming months. View menu

I recently worked near this restaurant and it was always busy with customers either dining or stopping in for a drink. There is ample parking available, although it is better to access by car from North Road rather than South Road. The prices for food were on the higher side, but that is to be expected given its location. I would not recommend this restaurant for wheelchair users due to the shingle and pebbles outside, but it is dog-friendly.

Have lived in Deal many many years the Zetland up until this last year used to produce good quality meals . Now it has gone down hill drastically. Cheap ingredients fast food type with restaurant prices in a pub . Too much fish on the menu they used to cater for everyone. A lot of local people support this place during the quieter seasons but if they want to continue they need to sort their menu and standard of food out . We’ve been 3 times since the new proprietor has taken over and won’t be returning or recommend until their reviews improve Sorry . The positive points are the friendly staff, the cleanliness and location next to the Beach beverages good and averagely priced.
