A short drive from the Kent Downs, The Plough Inn is a traditional country pub located in the charming setting of Norton. The building itself dates back to 1260 – inside exposed oak beams and an inglenook fireplace create a comfortable, cosy environment in which to enjoy a warming and indulgent winter meal, while the spacious garden area is popular during the summer months.
The food menu at The Plough Inn is focused on quality produce and exquisite flavours. You’ll find a selection of traditional British dishes, all prepared with care and cooked fresh to order. Why not stop by to refuel after a morning spent exploring the countryside? A choice of tasty sandwiches provides the perfect light lunch. The classic club sandwich – served on lightly toasted bread – is a firm favourite. If you’re looking for a heartier lunch you can’t go wrong with delicious mains such as one of the homemade short-crust pies with tasty fillings like steak and ale and rabbit.
Diners can choose from the main menu and the selection of specials. If you’re after something rich and satisfying, start with the warm roasted pear and goat’s cheese salad and follow with calf’s liver. The main of pheasant breast with mashed potato and buttery kale is perfectly executed, and the date-stuffed pork tenderloin with a rosemary and garlic crust is packed with flavour. A selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes is available on request. To finish, why not sample one of Carol’s delicious homemade desserts? To accompany your meal, order from the pub’s selection of real ale, cider and lager, or select a glass of your favourite wine.
On Sundays, The Plough Inn is bustling with foodies eager to sample the mouth-watering roast lunch. Most Sunday lunchtimes, live music also provides a relaxed overture to your meal.
