| The pub is wonderfully located by the river Stour in Wye. Great for a drink in the sun whilst watching the day go past. Unfortunately we made the big mistake of ordering food! I started with deep fried camembert. I know it’s meant to be ‘deep fried’ but this tasted like it had been submerged in old oil for about a month, my husband had the pate which wasn’t any better. We then both ordered the lasagne, which was extremely oily, with hardly any meat, some of the pasta was not cooked and the cheese was OTT. Usually I do not mind a mediocre meal, but this was way below average. The toilets are definitely in need of an update. We got talking to the couple on the next door table and they had found their meal equally as disappointing. We all agreed that we will NEVER eat there again, but for a drink it was adequate. Such a shame because if the food was up to scratch they could make a bomb there! lucylou1 - 12 Jul 2010 11:44 |
| A bit of a harvester feel to it. More a dining than a drinking establishment though there are a few unset tables for drinkers to occupy. Three ales on, two standards and Hopdaemon's Skrimshanker - which was a nice enough pint. On wet days smokers can shelter under one of the two (evil) gazebos in the garden and watch the swans on the river. Handy for the station. Snarling_Mallard - 9 May 2010 09:56 |
| Popped in for some food whilst in the area recently. The Tickled Trout has a great location by the river with a large outdoor seating area, but unfortunately it wasn't warm enough to sit outside. Friendly service from the pub staff. The food was OK. I enjoyed what I had but it just didn't have the polish of other pub food I've had elsewhere. I don't want that to sound bad, as there certainly wasn't any problem with the food. Beer-wise, several handpumps on. I had a couple of pints of Ringwood Bitter which was tasting good. I'd say this pub is definitely worth a visit. Paulaner - 6 May 2010 22:57 |
| The final stop in our day on the Stour Valley Walk was perhaps the most rewarding. I’ve been past this pub countless times, and might even been inside it when I think it was called something else. Situated by the bridge over the Stour and next to the station, I’d often dismissed it as a tourist trap. It advertises itself as a “Kentish Pub”, and generally lives up to that claim. Inside, it’s all open studwork and unplastered bricks. For a Saturday evening it was disconcertingly quiet-a few groups eating, but hardly busy.The staff were very friendly, and the food was very good value: the fish ‘n’ chips that most of us had would have dented the Rye Bay fishing quota. I was very pleased to see Hopdaemon Skrimshander IPA available: I’m very fond of this beer, but rarely see it on draught. I was a bit worried as it poured cloudy, but happily it settled and dropped clear by the time I sat down to enjoy it. Hops to the forefront- currants- with a grainy follow through. Also available were Youngs Bitter, Hopback Summer Lightening, Timothy Taylor Landlord and Greene King IPA, together with the usual fizzies. We liked this pub, and would come again.8/10 wittenden - 27 Mar 2010 22:36 |
