See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

A micropub converted from its most recent use as an estate agency. Varied selection of real ales, usually including at least one from Kent, and ciders / perries sold on gravity dispense from a largish multi-tier stillage in a temperature-controlled cellar room. Tasting flights are available on request. There is also an extensive range of malt whiskies and usually 4 keg beers. High tables and bench seating (some incorporating wood from church pews) line the floor space in the front room, the layout having been revised a couple of times as social distancing rules changed during the pandemic. There is a small heated courtyard and smoking area at the back and a smaller enclosed room with low seating. Food is limited to pub snacks. Regular events include games nights with a variety of games of varying levels of tradition, a monthly quiz on the third Wednesday and whisky tastings. There is a charity fine for talking on mobile phones within the building. CAMRA local branch Pub of the Year 2022 and 2024.
