The pub is set at one end of the scenic cobbled High Street, which leads to the River Medway and a historic castle. There are usually four guest beers on offer, plus cider and perry, and a good range of European bottled beers. The pub is well known for its food, which ranges from home-cooked pub fare to a la carte. This village local was the 2016 branch Pub of the Year, the fifth time that it had won.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
At the top end of the lovely cobbled street leading down to the Medway, this is an attractive late C19 or very early C20 structure, brick-built with some tile hanging. It still has three separate rooms and a traditional ambience. On the corner is the public bar, modestly fitted out with its old counter with diagonally-boarded panels (now painted), mirrored bar-back, and wainscoting. Beyond is another small room but this has no features of particular interest. On the High Street side is largest of the three rooms, the restaurant where, again, there are no interesting old features apart from the simple brick fireplace (the counter is quite modern). Excellent range of real ale and cider.
