[[Kake]], [[Ewan]], [[Sarah]], and others visited on a Wednesday early evening in March 2015. Three of the four handpumps were on, all with Shepherd Neame ales: Whitstable Bay, Master Brew, and the seasonal Early Bird. A pint of Early Bird and a glass (slightly less than a pint) of lime and soda came to £5.80. |
Staff are friendly and efficient. |

Food is served lunchtimes and afternoons only (on our March 2015 visit they started removing menus from the tables around 6pm). It's fairly standard pub food from a short menu <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/16860095342/sizes/l photo of menu as of March 2015]</small>, though they also do daily specials. |
Accessibility: Main bar is up a very small step from the street, but the door way is probably too narrow for a wheelchair. Bogs involve steep stairs. |
