We walked down from Birling as the Nevill Bull wasn't serving food, the was a large wedding reception on there but they were really friendly and still happy to serve us food. The menu was good and the food itself was similarly tasty. There was local ale available which we enjoyed, the staff were great with our kids and it was a really nice atmosphere in the pub.

I was leading a walk and we stopped for lunch here. When I made the arrangements they could not have been more accommodating. On the day there were 17 eating, the pub contacted me in the morning so I could preorder our food: I said we would arrive at 12.15 and would like to eat at 12.30. This worked perfectly as the pub is so efficient. All the food arrived together, there were a range of orders and everyone really enjoyed what they had. We could not fault it and will certainly visit again. This was quite exceptional service with delicious food. Thank you so much for making us so welcome and looking after us well. Can’t wait to visit again.

First time coming here for a proper dinner and I was very impressed. The staff were very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The meal was delivered in good time and all members of my family thoroughly enjoyed what they had. The veggie Mushroom Wellington was probably the nicest I've had in a pub or restaurant. I can't review the desserts though as the meal was so filling I couldn't eat any more. Nice pint of Harvey's ale with the meal.

Just had a wonderful Christmas lunch. All three courses were delicious and we all thoroughly enjoyed them. Would like to thank the two lovely ladies who served us, and also the chef who at very short notice provided me with a “take out” Christmas dinner for a member of my family. We have been here a few times for work lunches and will definitely be returning. Absolutely recommend.

We live local and love this pub, haven’t been in a while and took my parents here for lunch, sat in the pub side (which I love how cozy it is) and had the nicest lunch, some great veggie options, I normally go for mushroom chilli nachos but the vegetable lasagne was calling my name, and I’m glad I went with it, because it was lovely. Sometimes when you get given garlic bread with lasagne it can be very dry but you could tell it had been prepared in the kitchen and hadn’t skimped on the garlic butter! Thank you for a lovely lunch

Nice place and atmosphere, but they save money by serving consistently shy pints. We bought four. But estimated that we actually got about three and half.

Have been before and always had a great experience. Unfortunately tonight wasn’t one of them. Food was ok but service awful. Served by young lad who had no conversation at all. Didn’t appear to know what he meant to be doing He came to take our drinks order but never turned up for the food order so my husband had to go to the bar to order food which took ages. Wine was Luke warm so had to go to the bar again and to get ice cubes. Waited ages to pay and the man who eventually took payment was rude and aggressive. Garden needed attention, weeding etc and was v untidy Shame but won’t be going back

Lovely food, the service was good but we were rushed to get off of our table as the other party who reserved arrived! We cancelled any further drinks and a dessert, our table was originally reserved on the patio, yet, upon arrival we were ushered inside as the party before us wanted our table outside, I also requested a high chair for my child and this wasn’t added so he had to remain sat in his pram, the table we were on was jammed into a corner with little space, everything seemed rather rushed and we felt un-eased to relax and enjoy our lunch. Unsure on a return visit

Our second visit since COVID. It was for a lunch stop for a ramble, a circular walk from West Malling station. Foolishly I hadn't checked about table availability before my friend and I surveyed the walk the week before. Fortunately there was a beer festival being held both days that weekend so no bookings required. This was very well organised, with designated areas for beer and cider, and separately for food. Advance tickets were available too. 1 small moan - there was a great live band playing when we first arrived just before 1pm. However they went off after a few minutes and never returned while we were there. Never mind - the recorded music was good too. Food, drink and staff friendliness all great.

We had a wonderful 3 course meal at the Duke of Wellington for my friends birthday (group of 31) Food came out quickly but had time to eat in between courses, nothing felt rushed. The food was amazing, cooked to perfection. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The Duke is very cosy with open fires. Great for birthday functions too, many personal touches to make the day special. If you want a lovely village pub, excellent food, great service then the Duke of Wellington is the place to go in Ryarsh.

We went just after Christmas as a large family group. It was our first time. I thought every dish that came out was excellent, and there are some fussy members in our group. The atmosphere is cosy and relaxed, it is in a beautiful little village and it is a venue best enjoyed at leisure. The service was superb and friendly but the food did take some time to come out; not an issue for us, but might be for those in a hurry. Book well in advance and enjoy.

I can’t remember having such huge portions of great quality food! It was really tasty, but can I complain about it being too much?Here’s the thing... I’m sure the management know what they’re doing, but surely if the main course portions were a bit smaller, they’d sell more deserts? We really wanted deserts, but were too stuffed! Yes, I know, we didn’t have to eat it all (and we didn’t, but our dog loved the leftovers).Even the kids’ sausage and mash was huge!Anyway, give this place a try, but maybe Tapas is the way forward!

We had been recommended to try this restaurant and we were really looking forward to it but left us a bit disappointed. Only two front of house staff working on a Saturday evening, juggling running the bar and restaurant, both very pleasant people. We ordered a couple of tapas dishes to start with and the calamari was ok but pretty sure just heated from frozen, definitely did not taste home made or fresh. For mains we had fish and chips and the roast veg tart. Fish and chips were ok. The veg tart was tasty but served with a mountain of skinny fries and underdressed salad. A shame as the fries , to me, didn’t compliment the dish, again ok . Bread and butter pudding for dessert, the menu described as sherry soaked raising, with brioche bread baked in baileys infused custard. We asked for ice cream, it came flooded with cream, no big deal but the pudding had no taste of sherry or baileys. It appeared as a slice of white toasted bread in cream and that’s all we could taste, no taste of spices etc. Again nothing extremely bad, but looking at all the reviews, maybe the chef was off that evening? Based on our experience, I doubt we shall return, a shame.

Located in a little village this pub is ancient, charming, and is one of my favourite restaurants which we use frequently and often take guests. Local competition is hot and the Duke is one of the best.Parking can be a bit tight due to its popularity. There is a petanque piste and pleasant garden. Summer eating is enjoyable as there is a sheltered area at the rear but not at the front.The menu varies daily and a la carte interesting and seasonal. Portion sizes are very generous but doggy-bags are not a problem.Make allowances for service time because all the food is freshly prepared. The vegetables are done to a turn and never overcooked.The staff are attentive and helpful and all seem happy in their work.

We like to try a new place to eat every few weeks and were not disappointed. Upon entering we decided to dine in the bar area . For tall people like myself rember to duck as you go through the door . My partner had the mussels and I had the prawns as a starter and the chicken breast as a main . Mussels lovely and hot served in a garlic sauce still in the shell accompanied with skinny fries and crusty bread . I though I had ordered the wrong thing when that came out but my chicken was to die for . Well cooked but still lovely and moist crunchy vegetables and baby new potatoes with a lovely rich gravy . We will be back again even if it's just for me to have the mussels . And one final note the staff were so attentive . Food stopped at 2pm but the chef waited around until we finished to check if we wanted dessert .

Pleasant friendly pub with lovely staff serving. Great atmosphere. Nice decor. Visited with friends. Food was excellent. I had roast lamb, generous with meat and portions. Fab roast spuds, just like you have at home. My husband had chicken and ham pie and he said it was really tasty. That’s my meal sorted on next visit. A friend had burger, all home made and looked delicious. Good selection of beers and gin!

We went to the Duke for an Easter egg hunt on Saturday 20th April. Assuming it would be an egg hunt in the garden we were very pleasantly surprised to hear it was actually an organised walk with clues around the village! We came back to a buffet and an Easter egg for each of the children!! Fun!!

We visited the Duke of Wellington for the Easter Egg treasure hunt on Saturday. It was such a fun family day out exploring around the village and then relaxing at the pub. The kids absolutely loved all the questions in the hunt, the eggs and activities that kept them entertained.

On Saturday we attended the Easter Egg Hunt. Fabulous event, well organised and plenty of activities for the kids including arts and crafts, colouring and the Easter egg treasure hunt around the village. Food was lovely and lots of fab prizes in the raffle. Good family day out!

This place is everything you imagine of when thinking of a British pub. With a pedigree going back to 1516 the Duke of Wellington is well wortha visit

Having visited this pub/restaurant before I know the food is good. My daughter asked for a family meal so I gave her a selection of places to go locally, where the food is good. She picked here as she’s quite fussy but liked various items from the menu.

Went for dinner with an elderly relative on a Thursday when the resident live band was playing. We made sure we dined early enough to watch the bank too. Ordered the tapas as a starter then main courses and it was all AMAZING. One of the best meals out I have had for a long time and excellent value. Drinks are reasonably priced and the staff made suggestions which were accepted.

Greatest "local" pub for miles around. Really good atmosphere and friendly staff. Good selection of lagers and loads of guest ales. Great place for a Sunday roast and really good live bands every few weeks.

Completely appalling service by manager Chandler. Luck of professional approach and rude behaviour from this individual definitely are the reasons for most of one star ratings. We came as a group of friends having food and barely few drinks on Sunday afternoon hoping to have good time which was disappointing due to arrogant, rude and disrespectful comments from above mentioned Chandler ‘manager’. I’m pretty sure this guy knows nothing about management nor customer service approach. One the worst service ever encountered. Stay away if you can .

Had a really lovely evening. The Christmas menu was great. Cocktails yummy. Just a little hot in the booth seats.

This is an absolute marvellous place to visit it is great for kids family's couples. I went on the same day as last review(smoke)a couple of youngsters were told to leave so action was taken. Had you have stayed you would have seen. Other than this the staff have always been kind and polite and nothing to much of an issue. Food is limited on menu but what I've had has always been delicious prompt service. The marquee is a great asset to the pub for all party types and food catered for if needed. Great value.
