Racist staff working at the pub. Just because my accent wasn’t British when asked to clarify why the beer was hot I was told it was a beer and I should get over it and if I had a problem to go and speak with someone. Unacceptable behaviour, shocking. Never going back

We joined on Sunday for a roast which was lovely. I had the vegetarian option and even though the staff member wasn’t aware of what was on the menu or vegetarian options she found out and provided me with suggestions. Very much like the bowls of vegetables separate to the roast! One of the best roast I have ever had with amazing service! Beautiful pub with a great location

I cannot praise this place highly enough. Wonderful welcome. I was on my own and it wasn't a problem. Everyone extremely friendly. The fish and chips was amazing - succulent fish in the tastiest crispiest batter ever. Chips were excellent too. Whatever you are doing in Tonbridge - make sure you visit - you won't be disappointed.

What a great little pub?! I visited with my husband and 3 excited kids. Welcomed by the very polite young lady at the bar and offered menus as we walked in. She also waved us good bye as we left. I couldn’t see a kids menu, if there is one my kids just grabbed the adult menu, but the staff were very welcoming and catered the food to the kids tastes. The food was amazing! The bar manager and chef came out to collect our plates after and I thanked him personally. I had a vegetarian option which was delicious. My kids all had burgers which were obviously home made. Husband had the fish which was served with a generous portion of tartar sauce. The food is all locally sourced and the salad in the burgers was perfectly fresh. My mushroom burger was very tasty with just the right ‘crunch’ on the outside. The chips are the best I’ve tasted and just how I like them, thick, crispy and fluffy inside. The atmosphere is really calming. The pub feels like a local friendly pub. The TVs had sports on but at a nice level of volume. They have a small selection of fruit machines. The toilets are clean and tidy. The whole place was spotless! The floor pristine and a faint smell of wood cleaner. All the little plants had been cleaned. I couldn’t see a speck of dust! I love the original features mixed with modern led lights creating the perfect ambiance. I really felt like I’d morphed to somewhere else, a sleepy village pub. The beer garden is a decent size and has views looking over to the castle with an area under cover for shade. Maybe pop in a pay them a visit? There’s a pub quiz every Sunday night at 8.30pm which I might pop along to in the near future.

Complete transformation from the old pub I knew, and much for the better. The lounge bar area is very popular, but there's quieter seated area to the left. Two beers on when we visited St Austells Tribute and Harvey's, but they seem to have a good gin menu. One one bar staff on when we went on a Friday early evening, perhaps needed more. The decor is nice, tasteful and sparkling loos (always a good sign). I've walked passed this many a time, and will probably call in more often.
