I've been to Rye many times, but didn't realize this place was tucked away by the castle. A must for cask ale and craft ale lovers. A great atmosphere in a traditional style pub, with a decent beer garden opposite. I drank Kent Brewery Prohibition, which was lovely, but plenty of choice.

What a pub this is! Been to Rye twice and each time the Ypres has been the highlight of the visit! No food, just wonderful beer and a superbly chilled old pub atmosphere. I could sit in that bar all day. Lovely beer garden too under the shadows of the castle and with views. A shout out to the young chap behind the bàr too, really friendly and knows his beers! Real ale and craft beer heaven!

Such a lovely, historic spot a stones throw from the cute shops of Rye. There's a fantastic selection of beers and non-alcoholic options including lots of local brews. The space is full of cosy, warm corners to settle down in. When the weather is nice they also have a big beer garden across the way with some lovely views of the town. Well worth a visit.

Love popping in here when we come to Rye. Always a great selection of well kept beers. Friendly welcome and lovely feel to the place. We will be popping in next month too & after we get married 🥰

This 5 stars is a lot to do with the English Pet Nat we drank there - spectacular, and wasn't expecting to find natural wine here. They don't do hot food which was a shame for us but the cheese and charcuterie was delicious and did the job

Situated below Ypres Castle & Gun Gardens is The Ypres Castle Pub. Known as Vipers to us locals. A old rustic pub with a wood fire and great selection of craft ales and beers both local and further a field., Sicilian wine on tap, Prosecco by the glass. The star of the show is ROTHAUS an absolute beautiful pint from Germany or try it in a litre size. Food is crisps or local cheese board or local meat board both reasonably priced and generous portions.The venue at the moment is only open Thursday to Sunday. A large beer garden with views over the Marsh. Dog friendly and friendly helpful staff. Well worth a visit. As I said before a old rustic pub with the wood fire going now. Really cozy, dog friendly as I mentioned before. The ROTHAUS is a permanent one on as well as Ypres Castle bitter. A new lovely pint is FLOC and Geoff the landlord is going to see about getting it as a permanent one on tap. Still only open Thursday to Sunday and bank Holidays. But well worth a visit. Water and Canine snacks outside the main entrance help yourself. During the holiday period the pub is now open Tuesday to Sunday just shut on Monday.

Great traditional 'wet' pub with great beers and wine. Lively bar and a satisfying wood fire. Bar snacks (heffty pork pies). Large beer garden. It's definitely my kind of pub.

Stumbled into this lovely little country pub on a beautiful day in Rye. Fantastic selection of beers and ciders, many from Sussex but lots from around the world. Beautiful beer garden, cozy fire, what more could you ask for?

My favourite pub in Rye. Very atmospheric with dark lighting and candles by the castle. The Ypres Castle Inn is a traditional English pub. It is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, and is known for its friendly atmosphere, good food, and wide selection of beers. The pub is housed in a Grade II listed building that dates back to the 16th century. It has a large, open bar area with a fireplace, and several smaller rooms and snugs.
