Traditional city centre wood-panelled pub with an ever-changing range of local beers. The seating in front of the pub gives a superb view of Canterbury Cathedral, enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. The flint walls of the ancient King's School are opposite. Palace Street is part of the King's Mile and has many small independent shops.

The classic jukebox is well-known, and makes the pub a lively weekend location. The cosy atmosphere makes it a lunchtime favourite.

Information for this venue is provided by the Canterbury Herne Bay & Whitstable Branch of CAMRA
