Welcome
The Ypres Castle Inn, known locally as 'The Wipers', has been providing hospitality to visitors and residents of Rye for centuries. Built originally in 1640, and added to in Victorian times, the Inn has a warm and friendly atmosphere, and is built in the local weather boarded style, with colorful and interesting art and furnishings inside.
The Inn benefits from having the only garden of any Pub in the citadel area of Rye, offering outdoor eating and relaxation during the warmer months. From the garden there are delightful views of The Ypres Tower, Romney Marshes and the River Rother, with its working fishing fleet just metres away, which provides most of the seafood offered in the restaurant, including the famous Rye Bay Scallop. In addition there is a private dining area for parties up to 24, or marquee facilities can be provided in the garden for larger events.
The Pub prides itself on its ever changing menu incorporating mostly local products, including Winchelsea Pork, Romney Marsh Lamb, Rye Bay caught seafood and Ham cooked in local Cider. Our regularly changing menus can be downloaded from our Menu page, but it should be noted that in the Summer and particularly at weekends booking is advisable.
