There are plenty of solid wooden tables around the long room, stretching back to a decent sized beer garden out back. A very long bar dominates the room. There's a separate smaller room in front of the main entrance, where the toilets can be found. A large-screen TV stood in the corner of the room, behind some large leather couches, but it was turned off. Music was playing in the background, and was for the most part not too off-putting.
The beer was pretty good. The porter was £2.85 (April 2007).

On [[bob]]'s visit in April 2007, the beer was pretty good, and the porter was £2.85. In September 2008, despite having seven handpulls, only two were on (Spitfire and Whitstable Bay, the latter £3.05/pint), and one other was off (Cornish Buccaneer). They also have Oranjeboom and Holsten lagers, as well as a few others.
The food looked quite good and quite a few of the tables were pre-booked on a Sunday afternoon.

The food looked quite good and quite a few of the tables were pre-booked on a Sunday afternoon. On a visit in September 2008, our party tried the spicy bean burgers (£9), which they offer with a variety of toppings (there are four burgers and about eight toppings, to be mixed and matched) -- [[Ewan]]'s mushroom and caramelised onion burger was very tasty, as were Jo's and [[doop]]'s with mozzarella and onion. The fries on the side were not exactly chunky as advertised, but were hand-cut and of a very high quality.
Has a comedy night on Sundays.

[[Kake]] had a hefty steak (&pound;13) which came with a small salad <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2841723199/ photo]</small>, but more substantial sides (such as green beans) were priced separately at &pound;2.50 each. [[secretlondon]]'s mixed grill (also with the salad) was a bit cheaper at &pound;9, but not quite as good in quality as the steak <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2841713995/ photo]</small>.
NB As of September 2008 I'm not sure Shepherd Neame still own this place; see [http://www.hostmoreleisure.com/home.html Hostmore Leisure], who claim to run it. More investigation needed! --[[Kake]]
