Cosy 16th century country inn.

13/01/2025: New landlords took over the pub, so the information on this webpage may be out of date.

A cosy, unspoilt 16th century country inn with original bar and hops hanging from the beams. The etched windows indicate Rigden Brewery's previous ownership of the pub.

From the main bar you have access to a sports/games room, with pool, darts and sports TV, and there's a large conservatory/restaurant at the rear. Behind the bar there's a small function room. To the rear of the pub there's a patio and beer garden.

Cask ales feature Shep's Master Brew and a guest ale, typically from a Kent brewery.

The menu features traditional, home-made pub fare, a roast on Sunday and take-away fish & chips.

Plenty of events keep the pub busy. Gastro-themed evenings; monthly live music; curry and quiz evenings and a wine, prosecco and live music festival in August.

Although the pub is not fully-disabled friendly there is ramped access to the restaurant and lower bar area and a disabled toilet.

Walkers and dogs are welcome.
