Just along from the castle & to the rear of the cathedral, you can take some visual culture on board on the way. Central servery open to front and rear bars, two pumps at each side so don’t despair at the sight of Courage & Directors on entry, the rear bar offered Pride & local Nelson Spanker yesterday – I think they would benefit from double-clipping so as not to lose courage detractors, like me, at the doorway. Rear bar had 3 long narrow wooden tables, seating 6 a-piece, & a plasma was quietly showing the golf. The front bar had a bare-brick rustic style &, although I made a note that it felt slightly manufactured, I bow to RogerB’s observations re the age of the place. Patio to the rear sported white-painted cast iron tables & was busy in the sunshine.

This is a great summer pub. The beer garden is superb and well gardened. Ale is very good. An educated pub I would say.

What a gem! Having decided that Rochester was a convenient halfway point for my friend (Chestfield) and myself (Beckenham), this pub looked appealing on the website and was not too far from the station. And what a good choice it was! A lovely pint of Trafalgar Ale was matched by the superb Christmas lunch that was both plentiful and excellent value for money. A lovely warm, friendly pub with nice staff and locals, in the words of Arnie "I'll be back!"

After ignoring it for such a long time, I paid a couple of visits to this pub last year. You could hardly describe it as lively, but I remember it having a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. It’s one to visit on a weeknight or a Sunday afternoon.

Very picturesque weatherboarded Ye Olde Worlde pub just a few minute stroll from the main tourist area of Rochester. I’m not sure exactly how old this pub is but there is a list on the wall of all the innkeepers since 1549. The interior retains many of the characteristics for a pub of its age: low beamed ceilings, bare brickwork, timbered supports, old fireplaces, stoves etc. Well kept beers Courage Best & Directors - there may have been more the other side of the bar. Excellent food. It can be very popular so get in early for a seat. Good beer garden for summer months. Highly recommended.
