The Dering Arms, Pluckley

Stopped by for a quick pint midst a country walk. Beautiful historical hunting lodge. Tables outside to enjoy the weather. Friendly staff & clientele & does a decent pint of ale. Hot spot for classic car watching.

Black Horse, Pluckley

Diabolical. Surly staff. Empty beer glasses left all over the place with no effort to clean them up at all. Asked for an orange squash and was given an orange juice (out of the tap and was disgusting) and subsequntly informed to pay �3. When I enquired ''How much?'' I was told ''It's the countryside'' as if that gives them a right to offer a Mayfair premium, hauty service, the right to rip you off and give you drinks you didn't even order! If you're in the area. Go to the Dering arms insteady where you'll fine fabulous sevice in a charming, historical situation.
