The Sun, Maidstone

Recently revisited after an absence of several years. Served by a vast barmaid in leopard print leggings, who was wearing a top cut low enough to reveal the tattoo on her boob. She had a baby tucked under one arm while she was serving beer.

At a table nearby, there was what seemed to be a 'mobile manicure service' where several tattooed women (including one who had a remarkable tattoo of a black eye) were having their nails done.

It was hard to work out which customers were drunk, and which were just a bit 'challenged'.

Shame, back in the late 90s, this was a good pub. Now it's worse than anything elseI've been in in Maidstone..

The Flower Pot, Maidstone

Further to my previous review in 2009, I have to update it. I was recently persuaded to go in there by a friend who had a complete disregard for my reservations.

I'm glad he did! i don't know if my previous experience was a one-off, but I've been there several times since and I've had a great time every time. No bad or odd behaviour, good quality lager (I appreciate it's a real ale pub, but their lager is very good as well), friendly people...

OK the location hasn't improved; its not the easiest to get to, but it's worth making the effort.

Churchills, Chatham

Now very sadly closed. Absolutely no point going into Chatham for anything at all now.
