| Went for lunch there yesterday. Despite the cold and the snow it was pretty much full. During the day it concentrates on food and I have to say they do it rather well. Their fish and chips were near faultless and the steak pie was very good. As you would expect, the ale was very well kept and the pub interior has been refurbished and redecorated without losing its character. Downsides? I suspect the focus on catering means that if you just want a pint or three, finding somewhere to sit might be a challenge and the wait for the food to arrive was too long (35 mins). Nevertheless, it's another great addition to Westerham Brewerys small but perfectly formed portfolio of pubs. Gramsci - 23 Feb 2013 13:18 |
| My first visit since it was taken over by Westerham brewery. As expected, all Westerham ales on including Spirit of Kent, British bulldog, Finchcocks, Grasshopper & 1965. Spirit of Kent was easily the best in my opinion, they offer a "Tray" of ales (3x1/3rd pints for £3.40) so you can easily try several. The pub has been refurbished and was warm & welcoming on a cold December lunchtime. The menu, hmmm, a bit pretentious for me! Went looking for sausage & mash or pie & chips and found pigeon breast with pomegranate salad & "Le Rustique camembert tart with walnut cous cous": You what? The prices were not outrageous but we chickened out and went for baguettes which were fine. The place was quite full with a lot of reserved tables so hopefully they'll make a go of it. alan_From_SAWW - 1 Dec 2012 16:03 |
| This pub is well worth the trek. Went there on Tuesday and was immediately impressed by the lovely feel to it and the setting. The staff were lovely, really friendly, nice and helpful. Food was fantastic, top notch, good size portions.. this chef deserves 10 stars for his cooking skills. The food is much better here than in many good restaurants I've been to up town. Atmosphere is very warm and welcoming, a pub you can really relax in and enjoy a wonderful evening. Everyone was extremely friendly and the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home, they couldn't have been more helpful and friendly than they were. It really is a beautiful pub in every way, best I've been to in years. I spotted a very well known celeb in there having dinner too....well chuffed to have found such a gorgeous pub and will def be back soon!!! peterjohnnson - 19 Oct 2012 09:09 |
| Both Spirit of Kent and Finchcock's in good form. Very helpful staff who allowed us to eat inside with the dog and provided water bowl. Sunday roasts were well prepared with good quality meat and were generously served (around £11). Plenty of seating outside. Open plan layout slightly gives the feel of more of a restaurant than a pub. Overall I was impressed and the pub is a definite alternative to the very good Royal Oak at Staffhurst Wood. spoinge - 27 Aug 2012 10:01 |
| Following the news that this pub had been given a total renovation and was also owned now by the Westerham Brewery, we thought we'd give it a try. Very impressed we were too. Three hand pumps, one session, one premium and one strong - seems like common sense to me but why doesn't everybody do this? There were a few lagers and the like too...........and a strawberry beer (WTF??). The food was excellent - not particularly cheap but the prices seemed right for the quality - the haddock and chips was spot on. The service was very good and very friendly, the decor bright & cheery, and the loos had been done very well too. There are one or two bits of decorating to finish, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this and we will be returning before long. We all concluded it would make a great place to stop for a quick pint and a bit of lunch after a walk or cycle ride on the Chart. Congratulations!! tlucas644 - 18 Apr 2012 07:45 |
