The Landlord & Landlady are very pleasant as are most of the locals. However, the female clientele who are obviously regulars are very clique and not at all friendly. Could turn the wine soar! Most odd. Shame � as it only takes one bad apple! Didn�t feel comfortable in the pub once the regular female trade arrived, not all of them, but the vast majority�

Nice pub, shame its in an estate. Moody looking staff and dodgy looking customers. good for kids in the summer. Beer ok, didnt try the food.
All in all, its a locals pub. Not a destination pub.

Beer not so good, stick to the bottles, food none exsistant when i went in there yet another chef given up, not the most friendly of pubs in the way of the staff, the garden and the pub are really nice oldy worldy looking, shame its in the middle of a housing estate though.

Attractive old building which must once have been out in the countryside but which now looks rather out of place in a housing estate on the outskirts of Tonbridge. Interesting picture of Thomas Wolsey on the pub sign. Two main rooms, with a curiously small bar shared between them, plus a more modern extension (although built in a sympathetic style). Two pool tables in different rooms. Reasonable-sized beer garden. Three handpumps, with Harveys and Doom Bar on (and other disused?).

I saw the ghost in here last Sunday - she really does exist. I had had 10 bottles of magners though.

Nice pub tucked away among houses close to the railway.
Beers ok and I didn't take much notice of what food was seerved.
The derivation of the name is quite interesting, but I will leave you to discover that!

A quiet and very historical (as in mind-your-head) pub tucked away where you wouldn't expect it. The beers on offer when I went in the summer were real ale but low strength and not particularly exciting, but the general ambiance is excellent.
