user reviews of the Kendal Arms, Hove

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

I agree with regg3y - but this requires an update after nearly 1.5 years.

I like a pub to be a old school pub: just beer, darts, pool and bar snacks.

But with another the new management in nearly 2 years, this pub has gone from bad to worse: the beer (if any indeed) is absolutely below standard (do not even try the Amstel), so is the "food"- "things" that don't deserve to be called sandwich. The landlady is in a continously foul mood and definitely not friendly.

Most of the friendly regulars have gone elsewhere; so did I.

Shame, this used to be a very nice pub indeed...!

Harveys on tap (no surprises there!). Front room is dominated by pool tables, jukebox and quiz machine, and the rear by an impressive darts set up. Quite a big yard area for smokers which might catch a decent bit of sun when summer comes round.

The place has some honesty and integrity about it- an old school boozer for blokes. If you're looking for great ales and food this probably isn't the place for you..

Since Neil & Jean have left, The Kendal has gone down hill. Beer (if there is any) is below standard and most of the regulars have gone elsewhere.

They are just in the process of decorating and the place looks a lot better (it is a nice size/shape.layout with orgeous high ceilings). One side of the pub has the Bar billiards and the other has 3 (I think) pool/snooker tables; pool side is more popular with the locals than the bar billiards side.

Basic,locals style pub, always at least 1 real ale and good selection of keg beers and draft lagers. 2 pool tables and bar billiards. Regular competitions and darts teams. Friendly Landlord Neil and his wife Jean will nearly allways make you a sandwich. Good free nick-nacks on Sundays.
