Theakstons best on gas. Then usual lagers. Staff friendly. Lots of banter going on around the pub so seems popular.
Had a wonderful Sunday lunch here! The staff are incredibly friendly, decor is stunning and the roast dinner did not disappoint! Kids pasta portion was huge too and so good! There is a garden area if you want outdoor dining. A two minute walk from the beachfront, definitely worth a visit if you are on holiday in Herne Bay x
It was welcoming and warm on a cold Christmas Eve but can be quite noisy as expected when quiet. We came for a drink while waiting for takeaway and there was such a mixture of different people, young and older, families and couples, groups of friends. There’s bar games out back which were popular, especially with the young party kids. Bar service was friendly and efficient with plenty of beers on tap and other drinks available.
Great selection of beers here which was the best thing about the pub. I was really pleased to see Murphy's which I haven't seen in many places at all. The service was inexplicably slow when I popped in and I am not really sure why. Pricing for beer is ok.
On arrival to what appears to be just another pub on a corner you are met with a fresh and modern interior. It's no micropub but the bar area is a bit of a squeeze they serve local ales, larger and stouts as you would hope and a large selection of spirits, prices for a drink are as reasonable as any other good pub. I went as part of a party of 6. We were shown through to a restaurant area at the rear that was warm and as welcoming as the main bar area. My 1st and only grumble is that they have bench seats which are far too low for table. The menu & food. The menu is select it had a couple of options per dietary style (vegetarian, fish and meat) I sampled the delights of the confit of duck spring rolls which were packed full of meat and flavour and presented in an appealing way. For mains I had tried jack fruit, not because I was trying to be a trendy vegan but as it sounded amazing, (which it was)a large portion was presented that again was packed full of flavour and something of a rarity extremely filling. Desert selection is again refined to about 8 dishes catering for most tastes, I had some sorbets which were very nice and refreshing. We were lucky as there was entertainment provided by means of a band called 6 shades of grey, very good band which we could hear on the restaurant area without it being intrusive to the conversation. Overall amazing food, friendly staff and atmosphere, limited menu that's worth reading before you go to check you would eat some thing.
