was at the oporto on saturday 17 october - my friends and i had an absolutelly fantastic night. there was great live music provided by 'jimmy c & the blues dragons - playing some classy rockin' blues including some inspired covers by hendrix , the doors , stevie ray vaughan , zz top etc . i understand they're back next saturday (24th oct ). i noticed they're having a halloween party on saturday 31st oct - with a �50 prize for best outfit + great 70's / 80's tunes by dj 'peetlejuice' complete with halloween decorations , lights , pumpkins & smoke machine + free buffet / cider punch . sounds like the best night out to be had in the east end. make time and get yourselves down there - you won't be disappointed !

i recently went on a training course with the new owner of this establishment - what a thoroughly splendid chap he is . i have subsequently paid a visit to the pub and may i say what a fantastic place it is . the real ale , the food and the general conviviality of the place is outstanding . congratulations doug and smithy for a job well done , you've managed to turn a tired little drinking hole into a sparkling , shiny , splendid and magnificent pub in the heart of historic canterbury . nice one dudes !!!

i know this pub is right on top of the tube station , but do yourselves a favour - don't bother . walk down to the misty moon instead - seriously !

i've head on the east end grapevine , that there's a very popular local publican about to take over these premises. watch this space - it's gonna be very good indeed !
