At The Ragged Trousers, we serve comforting, flavour-packed food in a relaxed and welcoming setting at the heart of The Pantiles.
We take pride in using only the finest ingredients from trusted local suppliers. Sankey’s Fishmongers, located just around the corner from us, supplies us with the freshest fish, while David Catt & Son, and Taywell provide exceptional local produce. All of our meat comes exclusively from Paley Farm in Goudhurst, ensuring every plate reflects the highest quality and the freshest flavours Kent has to offer.
