Ex-Truman house on main road at east end of town near fort gardens. Formerly the British Tar, this 200 year old pub maintains a friendly, lively atmosphere and acknowledges links with local history by displaying photographs of the areas past. A vibrant community pub, now one bar, it divides nicely into a games/TV area and a quieter section for conversation. A new function room by the garden is spacious and has a bar. Dogs are thoroughly welcome.

The pub will close early if there are no customers. Other real ales are sold from time to time.

Information for this venue is provided by the Gravesend & Darent Valley Branch Branch of CAMRA
