Best people watching spot in the old town. Good well kept beers and Thatchers Gold now on draft for those hot summer days. Made the decision to relocate here easier.

Visited September 2011 Evening

Hassle free visit where we drank shorts outside on the cobbles whilst being entertained by a Bob Dylan busker! Friendly staff and the inside has an all round good feel to it. 7/10

Well described by Roger B ... loved the huge old fireplaces in this pub.

Sadly as with nearly all Shepherd Neame pubs, they only have Wrongbow Cider and Oranjeboom Lager.

Worth a visit.

This decent little Shepherd Neame pub, situated in the heart of the picturesque old town, is probably overlooked by most visitors due to its location opposite the more alluring Olde Pump House. The interior consists of various semi-knocked through rooms surround a central bar and has a bit of a scruffy feel but the bare floors, sooty fireplaces and random furniture do give it a bit of character to lift it above some of its more mundane neigbours. 4 pumps all operational; Spitfire, Master Brew, Bishops Finger and Whitstable Bay bringing up the numbers, a bit pricey but decent enough quality. Background music is a bit louder than most but it has to be said whoever was chucking coins in the jukebox when I was there made a pretty decent and eclectic choice. There is also live music so it’s not generally a place for peace and quiet. If the interior is too shabby for your tastes, the limited outside seating is great for people watching and trying to guess whether Ye Olde Pump House is really as old as it looks.

Had many good nights here when I lived in the area. One of the better old town pubs. Beer was usually good and when the fire got going it was great though everyone would end up coming out smelling of wood smoke. Much better than the Pump House !
