Great pub, helpful, lovely owners and staff - they took over a couple of years ago. Nice selection of beers. Dog and childfriendly, nothing too much trouble.
Food was delicious, and beautifully made/cooked. Prawns tasted so fresh they must have been caught that morning.
Lovely old, clean and spacious interior, plenty of atmosphere and tables and lovely back garden with outdoor seating.
Just off the A22, great spot for lunch. A short walk to Westbere Marshes. Will definitely be back.

Visited for the first time in about a year and a half and the new owners have done a good job on this place. Great food, a great pint of Harveys, friendly people and the sun was even shining (guess that's not a given). Bags of character - will go back.

This pub is such a lovely find!! It's tucked away in the prettiest of villages and it feels like you step back in time taking the turn off from the A28. We were looking for a quick stop pint somewhere we hadn't been before, but ended up having a fabulous Sunday roast beef too. If we hadn't had a huge late fry up for breakfast we would have sample the whole menu, that's how good it looked. The staff were most welcoming and we will definitely be back for more, this time with an empty stomach!

This is a lovely little pub in a beautiful village. It has been deserted each time we have been, which seems a little odd. The food was worth the wait...(we did wait some time considering we were the only ones there when ordering). It seems a shame that not more people use it.

We love this pub - great food, good beer and wine and the atmosphere is lovely. A real gem for both locals and visitors alike!

Many years ago, this one of the classic pubs of Kent. A one room local with a large table in the centre of the pub and beer fdrawn straight from the barrel. Now it is yet annother bland foodie pub with little character and no identity. Disappointing.

Bearing in mind it�s a free house and also bearing in mind 99% of the pubs in the county seem to be Shepherd Neame which sell nothing but Masterbrew, why is this chosen as one of the ales?
Perhaps the bar staff are new, but should it really take fifteen minutes to come up with five drinks and three bags of crisps when the pub is deserted?
Oh dear, that sounds so negative, doesn�t it? It�s a good pub � I�d certainly go again, but it�s a carbon copy of every other �standard country pub� you�ll ever see � there�s nothing to make it stand out from the crowd.

this is a nice old pub but we did not notice any of the friendly welcomes that others have mentioned (maybe they don't like yanks). beautiful view from the beer garden.
|
this place is a gem-amazingly friendly barmaid-occasionally dresses in serving wench gear-made to feel totally at home.

Does Patsy Kensit still drink there? It's slightly of the beaten track, but "in my parish" as it were. I, too, have not visited for about twenty years, so somewhat overdue for a visit.

I'm really glad to see the Yew Tree is still going strong. I had temporary "brain fade" trying to remember the name (it's been 31 years since I was last there), but I recalled something of local legend that placed Dick Turpin in this venerable establishment. The Law had tracked him there, and his subsequent escape involved jumping from one of the upstairs windows.
As I recall, they have outdoor seating at the rear that opens on a wonderful garden -- hope it's still in use.

My dream pub, good beer, good food, real olde as in the name. Friendliest welcome and great service from the "serving wenches"
|
Excellent real ales, good food, excellent service, and the perfect setting to relax
