The pub offers a great range of (mostly local) beers and ciders, including Ramsgate, Northdown and Five Point. Sensitively redesigned and very welcoming. The pub is named after a train that ran on the London Chatham Dover Railway which in turn was named after a somewhat famous bard. All cask ales are £3.50 a pint on Sundays and Mondays. Card Payments only.
