conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it the perfect spot to pop in for a quick pint and catch a match. There are plenty of TVs strategically placed around the pub, ensuring that you won't miss any of the action. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in.

Barman made me feel really uncomfortable! Went here with the family, immediately as we walked into the outside area, barman walks in and says "no under 18's after 5pm because they get a bit rowdy" - We laugh this off (as we were all over 18) and we get our drinks, the ladies at the pub were really nice, we order drinks, I give one of them my ID and it's all good. We go back into the outside area and place my drink down and go to the toilet, as I'm walking past the bar, the barman is staring at me as I walk past, which made me feel really uncomfortable and discriminated against (considering the comment he made when we walked in), I had an England shirt on and I have a baby face (I'm 22), which probably made him think "young England fan, he's gonna start trouble", hence the inferiority complex. This is such a shame because the pub itself is really nice and the other staff in there were really nice and helpful, it's just a shame that this one person ruined my experience here a bit and safe to say, this puts me off coming back here, at least for a while. I get that rules are rules, and people have to be ID'd for a reason these days, but blatant discrimination against younger people because "they get rowdy" is totally unacceptable.

Uno de los empleados se rió con ellos.Aquí no hay servicio al cliente ni atención para el bienestar, sugiero que todos eviten este lugar a toda costa. (Esto sucedió hace una semana y todavía estamos esperando una disculpa)

Says it all in the title really. Been coming to this pub for years but the last 3 visits have been appalling. We finished off here for my hen do on Saturday to be faced with a miserable, rude and abusive barman. As you can imagine a group of 18 of us spent a hell of a lot of money here. One round of shots came to £74 put it that way!! Brought it to the attention of the ‘manager’ who also presented with a lack of interest or professionalism. Had 3 further big nights out planned here for the summer - definitely not now! Would rather spend my money and time elsewhere! A bit of advice... please, thank you and a bit of banter go hand in hand when providing a service! Shape up!

Hemos pasado un día en Canterbury y la oferta en restauración es variada, pero pasábamos por delante de este y nos gustó. La verdad es que fue una grata sorpresa. El menú es bueno. Tuvimos que pedir en la barra pero luego te sirven la comida en mesa. El plato de fish and chips es enorme y está bien cocinado, acompañado con berros, patatas fritas (de las de verdad), guisantes y salsa tártara a parte. El menú infantil sin embargo es muy básico y de poca calidad. El precio es el habitual en este tipo de restaurantes. Recomendable.

Frankly this is a lager pub (brewery chain owned). Ales are bland s**t & scream. However I still use the place as a convenient pub to meet friends and have something basic and filling to eat. Neither the beer or the food are great but there are so few pubs in central Canterbury, this is the kind of place with fake medieval decor (somewhere behind all that plastic pastiche there is a genuine ancient building) that one is left with. Basically it's this kind of place or Wetherspoons. Few real pubs left, but those there are you will find in back-streets, or in St Dunstan's. Sad state of affairs.

I was served a Mojito which quite frankly was disgusting. It was bitter and the mint was black and wilting. When I mentioned this to the barmaid she said they had run out of sugar syrup so had made it with brown sugar which was just sitting on the bottom of the glass. We asked for our money back or for another drink as we could not drink these. When miraculously a bottle of sugar syrup appeared. This made no difference to an already inferior drink. We asked for our money back and was told this is how we make it. Both myself and friend said No it is not how a mojiyo should taste. She said we are not a cocktail bar. I said then don't advertise cocktails if you cannot make them properly. Her customer service was zero. She was rude and did not care at all. I asked to speak to tbe manager and was told she was the supervisor. Well i say to the manager if you put this rude, incompetent girl in charge of your pub you are going to lose a lot of custom. I will never frequent this pub again. I wikk also advise anyone else to give it a miss. Go to Bramleys over the road. Supberb customer service and an extremely nice mojito.
