Queen Street Tap will be the new name of the Hole in the Roof in Deal.

Stonegate Pub Company, who previously denied taking over the pub and music venue as a Slug and Lettuce or Yates’, have announced today that they will be moving in.

However they will be taking a more independent approach giving it a unique name with a focus on craft beers, cocktails and street food.

The pub chain has pledged to fork out £400,000 on renovating the building and create 25 new jobs.

Previous staff will also return as part of the deal.
