New social gaming and sports bar to open in Medway

Expect large screens showing a wide range of sport, interactive darts, retro gaming consoles and new menu




 A brand new sports and social gaming bar has opened in Chatham’s Maritime Marina.

Expect multiple large screens showing a wide range of sport, interactive darts, retro gaming consoles in booths and a lively programme of DJs and live bands throughout the week.

The space itself has been brought to life by renowned London graffiti artist James Titchner, whose striking tags and murals create a bold and unique backdrop, complemented by a bespoke resin bar top celebrating iconic sporting moments and memorabilia.

The lively revamp is matched with a new food offer which includes indulgent dirty burgers, mucky fries and spice bags, alongside wings, pizzas, lighter bites and a kids’ menu. Behind the bespoke bar, there’s an extensive range of beers, from well-known favourites to regional craft brews, with the site’s very own Sin Bin Dockside Lager taking centre stage, as well as a great selection of cocktails.


The venue, formerly known as Pier Five Bar and Kitchen, is owned by Shepherd Neame.

Ed Cornwell, Shepherd Neame’s Head of Hotel Operations and Retail Innovation, said: “We’re very excited to announce the opening of Sin Bin, a fresh, new venture for Shepherd Neame that isn’t just a sports bar – it’s an all sports bar and will be popular with fans of football, rugby, boxing, motor racing, women’s sports and more - if it’s sport, we’ll be showing it!

“We’ve also got three retro games consols in our dining booths, so you can brush up on your Mario Karting and GoldenEye skills. There will also be Sunday night quizzes, bottomless brunches on Saturdays and exciting offers on food and drinks. We look forward to welcoming you down to Chatham’s Maritime Marina for the full experience.”

The new team is led by General Manager Rachel Webb, who has moved from Shepherd Neame’s riverside pub, The Boathouse in Yalding, alongside Head Chef Dan Archer and Deputy Manager Sophie Myers.

An official launch event will be held on Tuesday, March 31, featuring local sporting stars. You can find Sin Bin at Dock Head Road, Chatham Maritime, and it will be open from noon to 11pm, Monday to Thursday; noon to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays and noon to 10pm on Sundays.
