Since 1862 this traditional back-street two-terrace pub has been its local community hub. Family owned since 1967, Richard took the helm in 2004 earning 17 GBG entries since. Local musicians, the Leaky Bladders play Thursday 7.15 & Sun 4.30. Darts Friday. Needle craft 2nd-4th Wednesday evenings.
One pale beer from Kent Brewery is always available. Biddenden or Kingswood cider on gravity behind the bar.
Located a short walk from the harbour and just 60m from Tram Road via a pedestrian crossing over the disused railway track. The saloon is unused, so enter directly into the bar. Government surplus Bakelite tables support drinks and a traditional gas fire keeps cold at bay. Opening hours may vary, often stays open after hours, check if making a special visit.
