Lovely old English pub with oak panelling and beams tiled and wood-block flooring. The walls are decorated with pictures of the pub's namesake and related artefacts and a framed history of the pub by the bar. Quirky restaurant at the rear of the pub and beyond that an attractive garden. Not longer operated by Shepherd Neame. The pub's website states that opening hours and food hours are "Please note that opening times are subject to change without notice" so suggest call ahead if travelling far.
