Jimboby1234............You say you have used the Gate for about 5 years, yet you are only 22 ?????

I guess under age drinking should be added to the list........Not doing to well are we.lol.

Seems funny that the last two comments were made by folks that joined this site the same day as they posted them, and that both were made about the gate. What's on offer for positive feedback, 1 pint, or is it a massive 2 pints........So obvious, and proves the points that others have made.

I am very surprised to hear such negative reviews about this pub and those who drink in there. I think they are mostly without merit, but obviously people are entitled to their opinions. I have been drinking at the Kingston gate for around 5 years now and have never had a bad experience there apart from being knocked out at poker occasionally. One thing though about the DJ on new years eve (from someone who was there) the DJ finished earlier than what appears to have been negotiated leaving a rather high spirited bunch to be left without any music. It actually put a downer on the night in my personal opinion.
All in all, friendly and attentive staff who have done their best to accommodate any needs I have had.
Reasonably priced and well cooked food.
Good Guinness.

A friendly and community type atmosphere.

i have recently re visited the kingston gate after a while, which i must say i found the landlady and staff very friendly. i will be using this pub more often. prices are reasonable and location is good as its just outside kingston.

Nice that you have responded Susan, it would have been even nicer if you had addressed the issues that people have raised here instead of making the wild assumption that everyone who has given you a bad review must be a trouble maker that you have barred. I think these reviews are a true reflection, I have only tried your pub 4 or 5 times and have not found it to be a place where you could go for a quiet drink with the wife....it IS intimidating in there. Someone raised the issue of drug dealing, I know for a fact that some that have been caught dealing and taking drugs in my local pub are now using your pub, so it would be wise to check the loo's on a regular basis.
Excuses won't get you good reviews......cleaning out druggies and louts will.
