Rude door staff on multiple occasions. Aggressively told I couldn’t wear a cap - it’s 2024 guys, caps aren’t the problem…stop this outdated enforcement and focus on the real issues in your bar, other than my hairline. AVOID.

Tried this place again yesterday for a pint as it had taken an upturn under the new manager Jade but was told she had to leave suddenly and it showed. Place was a mess, wet tables and empty glasses and a bad vibe generally about the place. Made things even worse by having a £5 burger from out the front and my guts have been a mess since.

What a place - I came to Rochester to visit a friend and she recommended this place; we went last night (Friday) and I’m still buzzing now! There’s a DJ, plenty of good vibes and the staff are amazing! We were part of a group and the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. The place is under new management and you can tell Jade (new manager) is putting her all into the place. She personally introduced herself and moved some tables around so we could all have a seat even though it was busy. Perfect location, right next to Rochester Castle. Reasonably priced drinks. Actually considering staying in Rochester another night so we can come back for the live band on Sunday! Big thanks to Jade & co for an amazing weekend away.

Really looking forward to coming back here, with my dog Murray again! popped in by chance sunday, what friendly, cheerful bar staff! perfect pint of Guinness, lovely comfortable atmosphere. I had to leave before the live singer was on but was told they are every Sunday so will definitely come back, the manager gave Murray doggy treats and was making a fuss of him, very dog friendly pub! cheers.

Very friendly staff, but considering they weren't opening until 2pm yesterday, the bar was filthy with straws and fruit on the bar from the night before. The bar was sticky so clearly hadn't been cleaned, the table we sat at was dirty and sticky as well

Not a bad spot for a pint or three . Quite crowded when we visited but didn't have to wait long for service

So the doorman of this place let's in very young, underdressed girls, but then tells older people it's too packed to come in. Blatant discrimination and inappropriate behaviour. When pointed out, said doorman shrugs his shoulders... three emails later to the pub and still no reply or contact so they too must think this is acceptable !

I like this pub. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. But like a lot of Wetherspoon pubs the tables were not cleaned enough. But always busy with a lot of tables to clean. So the staff are working hard. Maybe it's needs more staff. The last couple of times we went in there we cleared the table ourselves.

No roast potatoes on roast lamb, don’t think my 30% off mains voucher was properly applied as it cost £40.58 for two mains (roast and chicken burger), a pepsi and a coffee!

Whilst the pub is nice and the staff manage it well during a busy rush, the toilets always have some scum doing drugs of sort. Always bound to be trouble. Also, does anyone like the bands? I find them too loud and irritating.

On the 17th December i went for a Xmas meal with my brother, father and 10 year old nephew s i was visiting from Italy. When we arrived, we were informed that there was a limited menu on offer due to supply issues, something that had we known before would probably caused us to book elsewhere. However, after looking at the menu before being seated, we all decided there was something we could eat. We all selected burgers after asking the waiter the difference between the 2 that were offered (with no description at all) on the paper menu....burger is a safe choice, right? Wrong!!! Service was very slow but we can handle a wait but what was not acceptable was the poor excuse for a hamburger we were all served! For £17 we were served a hamburger with a single tiny and tasteless piece of meat inside which surely was the cheapest piece of meat that could be sourced, the quality was truly terrible and for £17, quite frankly, robbery! My nephews burger was selected from the child's menu which included a starter and also dessert for £9.....his burger was actually exactly the same as the one we adults were served!! Now, i don't expect Michelin star food at a Beefeater but i do expect something with quality relative to the cost which was a total failure in this instance....based on this experience, i would never go again for free, let alone pay for a piece of meat that a starving dog would refuse to eat!! As we exited we mentioned to the waiter it was the worst meal we had ever had and he was not too interested, i dare say because it is normal service now?!?!? In hindsight, we should have asked to speak to a manger/supervisor and showed them the food before we ate it, no normal person would agree that what we were served was worth more than £5 let alone £17!! We could have honestly eaten a better burger and chips from the local kebab shop and not suffered this poor excuse for a meal. TERRIBLE, cannot even supply something as simple as a decent burger, we spent nearly £100 including our drinks and could literally have purchased better quality ingredients from Tesco for £10 and eaten something tasty and decent.....burger not only miniscule but very dry and tasteless and the sesame bun was also burned too on my own, worst meal ever!!
