Fantastic!! Great pub.

Nothing is very far from the centre in Faversham, as it isn't very big! Go and have some Kent's Best in the garden behind this pub and then go and look at the boats on the creek. Food was ok if unadventurous - maybe adventurous isn't what they want to be. It certainly satisified.

Went to this pub for lunch 12th May 2008 and found the manager and his wife very friendly - nothing too much trouble. The place was in the process of being redecorated inside, something that was being done in stages when the pub was closed - they'd just finished the undercoat at the time of our visit - so there was no backgound music which was nice. Had some excellent home made soup and nice spiced rock salmon all washed down with a pint of Master Brew. Only possible 'complaint' was that they don't heat the plates so the soup and the food cooled rather more wuickly than we might have liked. Absolutely no complaint about the ale though! Nice place.

Only a long way from the centre in comparison to the cluster of pubs around the central point - took me all of 3 minutes from the Bear ! Decent atmospheric Sheps bar in attractive part of town - beer OK-good.

Beer tends to be OK rather than excellent. A long way from the town but well worth walk.

Worth the stroll. Good pint of Kent's best.

Out of Faversham town centre, near the Creek, this feels like an abandoned pub. It seemed to have been taken over by a folksy, scruffy-bohemian, babba-cool crowd who welcome the scruffy-bohemian faded wood feel of the place. Drenched in church wax and incense with softly played AOR, this is a pub I warmed to the longer I remained. The four Sheps cask ales were in exceptional condition. A warm, atmospheric, scruffy pub. I loved it.

Visited 02 Oct 05. Apparently this is one of the original Shepherd Neame pubs. As such it is extremely quaint. The bar is tiny, and popular. The full range of real ale was available. We had Late Red, a seasonal brew, which was excellent.
The two chaps working the bar were very polite and efficient. One of them went out of his way to make sure that we got food, even though it was past serving time. A big thanks, and very much something of a plus. On balance we thought the food was good.
Go there.

Also if the Scouse chap at the bar would like to continue the friendly conversation he was having with us then call Lee on 07759 849617

This pub is an absolute gem. I visited last night with a friend as part of a Faversham crawl, and was amazed by the friendliness of both staff and locals alike, who made an effort to make conversation with us and make us feel welcome.
The whole range of Shepherd Neame's beers are available, and the food is exquisite. I recommend the salmon pasta (which I had) and the beef & mushroom stroganoff which looked superb - was my first choice but the girl on the table next to us was eating the last one!
Go there - you will not be disappointed!
