Good ales. Quality live music. The smoking area is very good too. Friendly local pub. A wonderful backstreet pub.

The Rifleman is one of the last good pubs left in Sevenoaks. Good ales, nice area in the back and front, friendly locals, dogs welcome and the only pub with a decent smoking area outside. There's also a lot of live music on and open mic nights.

In many respects, this Greene King house is rather better outside than in. It has a number of benches out front which are pleasant in the sunshine as the adjacent back street has little traffic. On the opposite side of the building, the raised decking offers a substantial covered area plus a separate smokers shelter. Lower down, there is also a basic beer garden with a few further benches. Inside, there is some plain furniture in each bar plus pool table, etc. in the larger back bar. Three real ales on - IPA, an excellent pint of the seasonal Morris Mayhem (£3.00) plus the Rev James as a guest. Overall, rather hidden away but worth a look if you are in the area.

A relatively appealing Greene King pub on the outskirts of Sevenoaks but more of a local’s pad than anything worth going out of the way for. I have been lured here a couple of times in the past year by my nephew who occasionally plays in a band that performs here although it really isn’t a place conducive to live music with cramped bars and poor sight lines. The front bar has a darts area and is generally inhabited with bar huggers. The rear bar is equally cramped but does have extended areas containing a pool table one way and bar billiards the other. Décor and furnishings are pretty standard with a few beamed ceilings, military pictures, a log fire (that belts out enough heat to make the place a bit of a sweatbox) and the old pub sign now displayed by the pool table. To the rear is an attractive rear garden with covered decked patio.

One huge bonus is that despite being a Greene King pub, it does offer a guest ale to supplement the 2 GK beers (my recent visit saw the excellent Davenport Highland Whisky Ale). Prices are reasonable, staff and customers quite welcoming and it is generally a pretty civilized place albeit off the beaten track to most people.
