Our 3 Dining Rooms offer our guests three distinctly different dining atmospheres:
The David Armstrong Room | on your left upon entering the Fife 'n Drum, offers a dining experience that is casual by day, but more dramatic by night. With its high ceilings, large fireplace, brick and wood paneled decor, this room is used for lunch and dinner each day. The walls are hung with the prints of the late local artist, David Armstrong, many of them featuring iconic citizens of Kent, both past and present. At night, owner Dolph Traymon enhances the dining experience and plays piano at the piano bar.
The Eric Sloane Room | is located just to the right as you walk in to the restaurant. The elegant ambiance of the room is the more formal side of the Fife 'n Drum. The walls are decorated with signed Artist Proofs by the late New England artist, Eric Sloane. The beamed low ceiling dining room, a construction style typical of the early 1900's, is now used mostly for private parties, meetings, and holiday dinners. Small Weddings, Private Parties, Bridal Showers, Baby Showers, Conferences, Private Luncheons, and Dinners are usually accommodated in this room.
The Glass Room | is located on the south side of the building, is perfect for lunch, dinner, or small private parties. The fireplace in the winter, makes it cozy & warm.
Gift Certificates...great choice, simple decision, perfect for holiday gifts, birthdays, or anniversaries.
