Not the Call Boy anymore. Now called Liquorice and has had major refurbishment. One to leave off the your pub crawls of Gravesend ....real ale ? forget it.

The subtext of Sports Bar should give away a few clues as to what you should expect here; multi Screens, fruit machines, pool table and, er, not much else to be honest. A month or so ago we walked in and turned straight back round thanks to the noise and less than savoury mouthpieces inside. At least we had the place pretty much to ourselves yesterday afternoon. Despite being a Shephered Neame pub, there are no ales, just 2 redundant hand pumps and a selection of kegs. The interior is bland, the music rubbish and only the delightful barmaid and scared dog were worthy of any praise. My colleague tells me it was good here once. How times change.

Not a place for a quiet pint, The Call Boy in Gravesend is a tatty Shepard Neame pub situated a short walk from the main high street. I paid a visit today (Jan 12th) and whilst I found it to be okay enough on the whole, I must admit to finding it a little uncomfortable. The few customers in there were a scruffy and rather vocal bunch and there were a couple of kids running around too. The piped in music was decent, yet it was a little loud and the place is in desperate need of a good clean. There are better pubs nearby and I�d bypass here because of it.
