Handy for local bus routes this locals' pub lies just inside the Kent border from Crayford. The landlord is a keen supporter of real ale and cider. The pub hosts various sporting teams, including two mens' football teams and three ladies' hockey teams. The large garden to the rear is home to bat and trap during the summer. The pub has live music most weekends and holds a beer festival twice yearly. Copious amounts of bar nibbles feature every Sunday.

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