Black Horse, Monks Hortonback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Now serving purely local ales, regularly from the Whitstable Brewery, Hop Fuzz from West Hythe and Gadds from Ramsgate. Moretti, the Italian lager is always available and every third Friday hosts an Italian evening, 3 courses and half a bottle of wine for a very reasonable £19.95 per person. Would reccomend

Very welcoming and friendly staff. A little disappointing to find only London Pride and Greene King IPA available but the Pride was nicely kept. We sat outside on a lovely sunny day and the setting was very tranquil indeed.
I'd definitely come back to try the food and it was great to see the increasingly rare bar billiards table in the corner

The Black Horse in Monks Horton (or Broad Street on some maps) is a nice country pub in this part of Kent. We popped in briefly whilst walking locally and enjoyed the beer on offer and a chance to play the Bar Billiards there which is always worthy a fun game.

An excellent pub that serves the best real ale for miles. For those who care, the barrels are kept in a cold room behind the bar and the beer served straight from the barrels (gravity) rather than through the more usual, none to clean, pipe system. The landlord is working to provide excellent food. It may be slightly uneven in quality but more hit than miss. Prices are not unusually high or low. With 20% vat and just about everything weighted against the landlord making a profit, I think the food is very reasonably priced. The sunset over the downs, watched from the terrace with a perfectly cool pint of Harveys or Incubus, is one of the finest views in Kent. This pub needs to be supported and the locals need to get off their collective behinds and go there. The landlord is, contrary to one of the posts above, charming. Just for the record, i am not connected with this business in any way, but I speak as I find.

Dropped by off the North Downs Way. Pricey food, supercilious landlord and bizarre layout. What's behind the manky old curtain that is drawn across most of the bar?
|
A pleasant enough country pub somewhat off the beaten track, with ciders and perrys on tap along with the beer. The food looked good, albeit a tad pricey. But I suppose in this life you get what you pay for.
