| Closed. Traded for some time as the re named 'Blean Tavern' now closed. Up for auction and future uncertain. ridleyman - 17 Aug 2019 10:06 |
| Country pub on a busy road on the edge of Blean. Decent place. Proper pub area and a separate room for diners - though people can and do eat in the pub area if a less formal ambiance is preferred. Big and pleasant enough beer garden, though there's rather a lot of noise from the road. Thre casks - Doom, Master and Pride. The Master was a little flabby. Pleasant service and with enough customers to give the place some life, though not to feel overcrowded. All in all it's what you'd expect of a pub, and it ticks the boxes without being particularly special. Nothing really stands out, and with the indifferent quality of the beer, and traffic noise in the garden, it has some minus points, but it's a place I wouldn't object to stopping at again, and adds up to perhaps being just above average.

| An opportunistic stop-off here yesterday to top out something of a marathonial jaunt round some of Kent's finest. Sadly, although perfectly pleasant and endowed with some positive points, the H & H wasn't a stand-out pub compared to some of its peers. A solid local by the look of it, with a good welcome from the licensee. Around 4 cask ales featured; the Sharp's Honey was in good form and a welcome alternative to the dreadfully ubiquitous and banal Doom Bar. Decor and atmosphere-wise, things seemed a little tired and unexceptional, but nothing offensive. Perhaps room for improvement, but still worth a look in the meantime. TWG - 24 Jul 2011 18:09 |
| Relatively well refurbed one roomed roadside local. Tried a pint of Gadds Little Cracker which was an excellent pint - followed it with a pint of Gadds Dark Conspiracy (a porter) which was another good pint. There is a frequent bus service stopping outside (number 4 from Canterbury, number 6 to Canterbury). anonymous - 17 Dec 2010 12:30 |
