I had two very different experiences in this micropub. I first tried to visit at 9:30pm on a Saturday evening. The guy in charge clearly didn't like the look at me and stated that they were closed. My initial impression was how can a pub that closes at 9:30pm on a Saturday continue to survive. Undeterred, I returned at midday on Sunday to a completely different welcome. A different man was on hand to welcome us in and immediately offered to explain the ale and cider selection. What a difference 14½ hours makes! Ales on were Robinson's Dizzy Blonde, Westerham British Bulldog, Sharp's Sea Fury & Oakham Southern Cross. Ciders were Weston's Old Rosie, Lilley's Apple & Blackberry Cider, Mulled Cider & Somerset Scrumpy. Two very different experiences here. But, in spite of the unpredictable opening hours, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. blue_scrumpy - 13 Jan 2019 21:25 |
Friendly micro pub just off the High Street. All ales on were tried and all of good quality. pwilkins - 6 Jan 2016 12:24 |
