RateBeer Brew Tour Guide's Comments
400 year old farm building or hunting lodge that was converted to a pub at some point in its history. Very hard to find and easy to miss, the pub lies not too far from the ancient walking route to Canterbury, the Pilgrims Way. There are six keg taps serving stout, cider, etc, but there are also 6 ever changing cask ales arranged according to strength - the regulars will often just ask for a "Number 3" or "Number 4". The family mix farming with running the pub, and the food served will often be their own produce, including the beef. Michelle is in charge of the beers and gives the casks plenty of time to settle before tapping. The quality and range of beers, plus the quality of the food and the warm, laid back rural atmosphere make this pub well worth the effort of seeking out.

This place is a very long way from anything, and a hard ride on a bike... after almost giving up the search and turning home, this place appeared between to farm sheds. I was the only person there at 3pm on a tuesday... They only had 4 casks going, all blonde ales which was ok I guess. The place smelt a little cheesy so I drank outside. Didnt eat, the landlord was very nice and the beers extreemly cheap. Worth the journey. | | SilkTork (55), Rochester, England | | January 28, 2004 [ Updated July 20, 2004 ]
A great country pub serving a genuine rural community. It looks like what it is - an old, scruffy farm building. There’s no public transport, so if you want to over-indulge then you either have to walk or get a taxi. |
