| They have 2 pumps but only one was on. Had the Robinsons Dizzy blond at £3.20 a pint. The food served seems to be plentyfull but not served all day. Kingsdown is a small place to wonder around and busses run about every hour from Dover. markos - 3 Jun 2011 23:03 |
| Second stop of the evening - again GrahamA gets it right! The Castle Eden was was served up in fine fettle, by a smiling young lady in equally fine fettle! The menu looked good, and the food also looked good - all home made fare by the look of it. Carnivores and Vegetarian alike are catered for - Someone on a nearby table had a Vegetable Korma which looked most appetising - fair praise from a dyed-in-the-wool red meat eater. Definitely good, solid pub grub taher than gastro! The lighting was rather bright, but at least it meant you could see what you're drinking. Lots of old photographs and pictures decorate the walls, so with the bright lighting, it means you don't have to squint if you're a myopic old fart like me! The King's Head has the edge, but the Risng Sun is certainly worth a visit, and as such gets 6/10. If you're going down to the Zetland Arms ( out of the door, turn sharp right down the side of the pub ) take a torch if it's dark. It's an unmade road with "sleeping policemen", potholes and other trip hazards. There are no street lamps on the approach to The Zetland Arms. 5thearlofwimbourne - 13 Sep 2006 11:44 |
| Only popped in to buy some beer to take away but the pub seemed pleasant. The Castle Eden bitter was certainly tasty. There is a beer garden out the back and I believe food is available most of the time - although we didn't try it. GrahamA - 4 Sep 2006 08:16 |
| used to here as a kid with the family, great sea side location, some let me know what its like 15 years on ? Dominic - 2 Jul 2004 04:55 |
| Family run, quite small, great food, nice friendly atmosphere. Skittles out the back, dart board, 1 min walk from the sea. Golfers haven. Ade - 11 Jul 2003 15:26 |
