The Eagle Tavern is bare, dull, drab, mundane and a little depressing. The white wash walls and scruffy flooring hardly elevated the experience. Clientele within seemed basic in intelligence and the music (well, ‘dance’) was too loud for a Friday afternoon. However, the outdoor area seemed spending and well kept. I didn’t venture out there, but staring out through the window was certainly preferable to making contact with the unruly crowd sat at a nearby table. One solitary ale was on offer, but this is a lager pub. The toilets are a bit of a trek down a staircase, but were pleasingly clean. Weather permitting, I’d perhaps visit for the garden, but with our weather, well lets just say, Friday (8th Feb) will probably prove to be my sole visit.

I've only ever been on Sundays where the (free)jazz feature the best names in the country. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic,even if you're not that keen on jazz as there are some real characters, both on and off stage! The beer is pretty good too. Nice beer garden outside with decking backing onto the city walls.

This is a very good pub if you like sunday lunchtime jazz all ages congregate here then ,the Bombadier is consistantly good at night it reverts to a kids pub noisy and souless.

Rather uninspiring single room pub situated on the high street. 3 Real Ales - Bombardier, Speckled Hen and Young’s Special but didn't taste too good. A colleague complained that lagers were a bit warm. Beer Garden looked OK with good views of part of the old City Walls and drinking outside is probably preferable to sitting in the rather boring interior. Apart from a few local pictures on the wall, there is little to divert the attention away from the bare floor, plain windows and hideous cabinet housing the large TV screen that seems to dominate the room. There is a jukebox but volume tends to be a bit high. They do advertise live jazz and this is probably the best time to visit if you have to visit at all. In a delightful city such as Rochester, there are many far better pubs within spewing distance.
