Very nice pub, this. Not a huge selection of ales but the Adnams Southwold was very good and the food decent. The landlady was very friendly and chatty and the surroundings are lovely. It's basically in the middle of a wood so I would imagine would be a great place to start and finish a nice walk.

Wonderful, traditional pub with a really friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Only had St Austell Tribute ( a little lacklustre) and Proper Job (lovely!) when we were there but the food was exceptional. We had the Sunday Roast in there and the portions were absolutely enormous - to the point where I felt really guilty about the amount of vegetables we had to leave. No fewer than 6 different ones in 2 separate dishes between 3 of us. We were back later in the week for the 'normal' lunch menu and that was all beautifully cooked and presented as well. The landlord / landlady were very friendly and welcoming and there is a lovely old pub dog - a Corgi/Rottweiler cross (ouch - that must have hurt !!). A pub that deserves to do well, especially as it's a up against a fair amount of local competition for such a small town.

Lovely pub in every aspect as far as I can see. It's obviously geared up for the food and if our experience is anything to go by, it will do extremely well. Bar snacks were all outstanding quality and reasonably priced. The main menu, as you'd expect, is a bit more pricy but what was served on other tables looked great. It's a Shepperd Neame pub so you get the usual offerings - which gets a bit boring if you've live in Kent for a while - but there were a couple of other choices when we were there and the Goldings was lovely. A bit out of the way for me but I'd definitely make a special trip for the food alone.
