Beautiful location just outside of the village of Chislet. Wonderful scenery with a stream with swans nearby. The food is nothing fancy but is home-cooked and very tasty. But its the beers, oh yes the wonderful well kept beers that stuck with me. Not even hand pumped, but taken straight out of the barrel. Pure nectar! Good old fashioned pub atmosphere with Quizzes, Runs, Dominoes and outside pastimes such as Soft ball, Rugby,cricket, & Walks.

BEEN MANY TIMES. THE FOOD IS ALWAYS GREAT (EVEN WHEN THORLEY TAVERNS TOOK OVER FOR A WHILE). TWICE WHEN HAVING A STEAK I WAS'NT GIVEN A STEAK KNIFE BUT DIDNT NEED IT! YOU COULD HAVE USED A BUTTER KNIFE. SEVERAL WELL KEPT BEERS INCLUDING GREEN KING & SPITFIRE. GOOD ATMOSHPERE. LOCATED NEAR THE HISTORIC MANSTON AIRPORT. NOT BEEN THERE? GO ASAP!

The Gate Inn, Chislet
I Can't agree more with the 5th Earl. Went there again recently and had a 'Gate Megga Grill'. Wonderful. A pity it can't be Lent all year! These lagers have a place, in Spain or Aussie, but you can't beat the great British beer. Nothing like in the world. All power to the Gate and other good pubs.
