Deal is home to around 20,300 people (2021 census), a Kent seaside town long associated with one of the earliest events in recorded British history.
Where Caesar Is Said to Have Landed
Long-standing tradition holds that Julius Caesar's invasion fleet first came ashore on the open beach near Deal and Walmer in 55 BC, an event marked today by a concrete memorial on the seafront. The exact landing site has never been settled beyond doubt, and research published in recent years has pointed to a location further north near Pegwell Bay as an alternative candidate — but Deal's long association with the story remains part of how the town tells its own history.
What that history doesn't leave behind
This town's history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Deal shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online is more consistent — rather than a special trip to Dover or Canterbury, the full range comes straight to your door.
