Featured story

K Bar is in Keynes College on the University of Kent's Canterbury campus.

K Bar has a laid-back and welcoming vibe, perfect for relaxing with friends in the evening or between lectures.

The bar stocks a variety of premium lagers, craft ales, wines and liquors. But if you’re looking for something more adventurous than your average tipple, why not try one of K Bar’s popular cocktails? There’s both old favourites (mojito, anyone?) and signature blends to choose from.

Feeling hungry? K Bar has got you covered with our new bar snack menu. Fill up on delicious comfort foods like nachos, chicken wings & pizzas, and when the weather is right our courtyard garden is the perfect place to gather with friends and unwind over a freshly poured pint.
