I haven't checked my Beer in the Evening account for ages but the first message I read was from Dawsons who has told me to f&ck off for not writing a nice review about his pub. I sincerely hope that he is no longer there because if he is I will NEVER go back, my review was not rude or abusive so if he contacts me again I will report him.

Visited the Flight Tavern for the first time last weekend - our kids love looking at planes so we wanted to take them to Gatwick but you can't do that now in the airport itself as they've closed the viewing gallery. We had a good time - the food was plentiful and freshly cooked and good value at 2 main meals for £10. Kids menu was OK but not quite a good value. Good choice of lagers and local ale. Overall standard of the pub though was OK but it does need some investment - loos are a bit run down and the overall decor needs updating plus the bouncy castle that is advertised as being available each weekend was not inflated. However I think with some TLC this could be a little gem - I could imagine it being really popular in the summer as the garden is excellent - and the landlady seemed really nice and helpful. We'll definitely come back soon and it does have great views of the planes taking off!

Beer garden always seems full as you drive past, and must admit its pleasant sitting out there with a glass of cider on a hot sunny day.

Called into this pub as I was booked into the close Travelodge. After the walk of death down an un-lit B Road I eventually made it to the pub.

Recently taken over as the previous owners went bankrupt (strange given previous comments !!). The pub is a large well maintained pub with what should be a fab beer garden in the summer. I sampled the Spitfire and the Doombar, the doom tasted fine but was flat as with all southern ales.

The food looked and tasted good, but whats it all about having your burger served on a wooden board ?? had to ask for a plate (cold) so that i could eat my supper !"! saying all that it was nice and defo home made so no corporate crap !! if this pub could attract customers and keep them then i reckon it could be half decent, nothing worse than a decent pub only a quarter full. Worth a visit I reckon in the summer time when hopefully the visa machine will be working !! oh and do anything to avoid the walk of death back to the Travelodge !!
