| Been here three times now since the start of the year and each time it’s got progressively worse. While the menu is interesting, the homemade soup very good, the rest is below par and the service a joke. Long waits as standard and food rarely comes out at the same time if you are in a group. It's often cold when it does. You also feel like you are made to wait just long enough to have to order another drink to go with your meal. Ask for ketchup or vinegar and you get a communal bottle - not very hygienic! As for price, some items are OK, but others are a bit excessive. Greek salad with half a baguette for £8.50… guessing it was flown in from Greece and the price reflects its airfare! The staff are friendly enough, but not very switched on. Last time we visited the landlady and barmaid both cleaned the same table within a minute or two of one another! Not the worst pub in the world, but put off enough that I won’t be going back any time soon. blueclarkson - 3 May 2012 20:01 |
| Shepherd Neame house set in a lovely location. Tried the Masterbrew & Spitfire both of which were very good. Food was very good but the system was a bit odd ... we were a large group of walkers and we booked in advance saying most people would be having sandwiches / soups type of meals. As a result, they wouldn't let the one or two people who wanted order a roast dinner. Apart from that they were very well organized and helpful. They've got a nice cat too. alan_From_SAWW - 22 Jan 2012 16:49 |
| Mr Miles is a tad harsh.I had a lovely lunch up there today a couple of Tonbridge Ales. Lovely sunny day and a super location. The sandwich was lovely and crusty and a decent side salad. More importantly the beer was as clear as a bell and in tip top condition. Not seen the Rustic too often but its worth a quaff or two anytime. Sessionmaster - 11 Jan 2012 20:53 |
| Lovely location & without doubt a lot has been done to upgrade the menu choice. Thats fine if you want main meals.Regrettably not the case with the boring poor value sandwiches that are served on awful White or brown supermarket steamed bread.For £5 a time lets see some decent wholemeal / granary on the menu along with a choice of hot baguettes.Thats what the competition is providing.Suggest new owners take a trip up the road to the Chaser Inn ."Lessons need to be learned" robertmiles - 2 Nov 2011 22:23 |
| Enjoyed a very pleasant lunch indeed here yesterday. Helen, the landlady I gather, is charming and the food we had delicious with very well kept beer. We shall defiantly return and bring our friends and hopefully snuggle up by one of the fires if it ever turns cold. PeterHam - 12 Oct 2011 14:44 |
