The Dovecote, Capel

The Dovecote offers a good range of beers, always in first class condition, served and kept by the very amiable and efficient barman Charlie. The food is always varied and good, and served in generous portions. Shelly is a superb landlady and cook! Friendly service from all the lovely staff, except, sorry to say the "milk-tray-man", the landlord Nick! Besides Nick, it is a truly lovely pub and used to be our favourite local!

The Halfway House, Brenchley

Excellent non tied pub run by very friendly attentive staff, always serving excellent, well kept real ales from local and further a field breweries. Always busy with lots of pleasant & sociable locals, which create a great atmosphere. The food is always good and the regular theme nights are well worth booking, the food is varied with good portions, and always of good quality. Nothing is too much trouble for the chef, he is very accommodating, we have arrived after we thought the kitchen had closed, and he assured us there was no problem with ordering. The real fire is always welcoming in the cooler months. The two beer festivals on the bank holidays are well worth attending. Our absolute favourite pub in the area, a real find!
