The Blue Pelican

Japanese-inspired dining on Deal seafront.

Based on a Japanese Izakaya - a word which means ‘stay-drink-place’ - the tradition combines the atmosphere of a laid-back bar with small expertly-put-together plates of food. The menu changes seasonally with a weekly specials board and a set menu which is available for Wednesday and Thursday dinner, and Thursday and Friday lunch.

• Book a table with a sea view or sit at the kitchen counter where you can watch the chefs. 
• There is a private dining room upstairs which is available for groups of 6-10 people. Please message the restaurant to discuss before booking.
• The Cellar Bar is open for drinks and small plates on Friday and Saturday evenings - there is no need to book here. 

The Blue Pelican sometimes hosts guest chefs - please see their website and keep an eye on their social media for details.
