The First and Last, Maidstone

What acracking little pub,and I do mean little! Most unexpected in this area which is a desert for decent drinking establishments.Nice and clean,pleasant welcoming atmosphere and exc. beer as shown by a fairly recent Cask Marque award.Always on tap are T.T landlord,Adnams ordinary and Black Sheep- all in superb condition.This week Hopback Summer Lightning was the guest ale.. The Landlord,s policy is to have a guest beer once every 2 or 3 weeks.A testament to the pub is that a pub of this size can sustain 3 or 4 beers .Toilets nice and clean and regulars most friendly.Everything a small back street pub should be.All power to the landlord and landlady!!

Nice atmosphere Landlord doing an excellent job with Harveys beers-all of them.Particularly good on Sun.p.m.when live music washes the Harveys down a treat.Others say the food is really good too at a reasonable price.V.pleasant place to spend the odd pint or 6 !!!!

Well,the F&L's 1st. birthday,and what a year its been. Beer (T.Taylors,Black Sheep and Adnams) all on top form -all the time- as the recently awarded Casque Marque will testify.Great Live music occasionally a v. popular quiz every other Thursday and a lovely group of friendly regulars.All the ingredients of exactly what a back street boozer should be.The ladies also seem to enjoy the v. pleasant wine on offer served in v. nice wine glasses!!!May the next year be as good as the first.Its been a pleasure
