The Rum Puncheon Gravesend in Gravesham

Great pub Excellent beer Food not ordered

Although slightly biased I really like this place, it’s busy enough and has a varied clientele. Drinks are as you’d expect but the Neck Oil is sublime, probably the best I’ve drunk anywhere, and I’ve drunk a lot of the stuff. It’s one of those places that has you coming back time and again

A lovely team and friendly environment. We had a great family event here. Spread over two room and with an amazing buffet spread. With a garden that backs onto the river theres a definite summer vibe here.

Great pub friendly helpful staff very nice atmosphere good selection of beers etc will be going there again

A great Pub with a great selection of beers

Friendly staff, great atmosphere and good range of gins and beers 🍻

Nice pub in Gravesend Kent. I was visiting a few old friends and they went to the rum punch. Very nice pint of beer and the staff very friendly making me feel welcome.. 👍👍

Renovated Georgian traditional pub. Range of real ales.

Vinyl Richie Sunday afternoons are fab!

Went to the Sunday Soul session,, was a great afternoon and night...many dancing and some chilled out on the patio area...🎧🎶🎶👍👍

No longer serve food so unable to comment. Lovely place to visit, staff helpful and attentive. Nice place to chill and unwind Definitely deserves a visit

Building up trade since reopening on Xmas Eve

There isn't any food at The Rum Puncheon Gravesend, Kent!x♥️

What a beautiful, friendly, welcoming venue. Family birthday party fully staffed and catered for in well proportioned rooms and balcony with wonderful views of the River. I had such a wonderful time. Thank you, and, as Arnie says, "I'll be back."

Went on Sunday bank holiday weekend soul music DJ playing. Great atmosphere was packed out. Has garden so did get table

Lovely little pub with a quaint beer garden. Great atmosphere. Nice place for a get together with friends.

Nice pub, great function room upstairs

After attending a wedding there last year, we hired the upstairs function room for a big family birthday party last week and can't fault it. Beautifully decorated function rooms, fabulous food and friendly, helpful staff. Highly recommended.

Very friendly staff and great service would definitely go back

Friendly staff and very efficient

Totally fabulous pub, really. I've probably been here a fair few times now, the first time being springtime 2022 and the last was 2 weeks back. Always made welcome here, great choice of really well prepared & well kept beers. And you can always have a conversation without having to busy your lungs shouting. Highly recommend.

Nice atmosphere. Upper bar area and event space looks good.

Another wonderful evening. Staff are great. Atmosphere is so welcoming

Great staff great atmosphere great garden great drinks must be one of the best pubs in Gravesend!!

Great pub, hidden in Gravesend. Excellent staff and brilliant service

Excellent evening, attentive staff and good prices

We booked the Rum Puncheon for our wedding party and we had simply the best day. From start to finish, Jacqui and her team were just brilliant - supportive and intent on ensuring that our reception was exactly how we wanted it. Nothing was too much trouble. So many of our guests have commented on how beautiful the venue is, as well as the high-quality service, attention to detail and the most amazing food. If you are looking for a great venue, overlooking the Thames then you need to look no further. Simply wonderful. Thank you so much!

Brilliant pub by the river fantastic bar staff

Lovely pub, good atmosphere and great beer selection 👌

Fantastic pub great atmosphere, friendly staff and great prices. I would highly recommend.

I never went in there I was just around there but I've heard it's very nice

Great little pub, friendly staff and atmosphere, they introduced me to Lowenbrau larger very nice, they had a band play on Friday 23 Aprill who are brilliant . Can't wait to go there again..

Lovely pub, staff amazing. Absolutely gorgeous decor

Quite a smart pub considering the location. It doesn't seem to attract the standard Gravesend clientele. Nicely decorated and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. The bar lady was very nice. Background music could be a little better but that's my only gripe.

Nice quiet pub very friendly staff.

Lovely pub, excellent bar staff, great range of drinks, nice vibe in the pub, mixed bag of customers age wise, all very friendly.

Fun nights, great staff, decent prices

Welcoming and lovely seasonal mulled wine.

Friendly service great selection of Ales.

Great day, fabulous atmosphere. Octoberfest theme day we had an amazing time. Xx

Lovely atmosphere and friendly people. Beautifully decorated. LOVE the chandeliers :-)

A fantastic place to have a drink

A good friendly pub. That sits by the Thames. Good choice of ales. Well worth a visit.

What a gem in Gravesend! I've driven past this building and never popped in until yesterday. A humming hive , such a warm welcome by the lovely staff... Clean spacious toilets ( important for us girls) and the decor is not something you'd expect for a bar in Gravesend. Despite there being a big birthday party in there we had plenty choice of tables to sit at and a garden over looking the river. They have a function room upstairs (just being redecorated for a wedding) so we didn't see that but if it is anything like the bar area then with their upper terrace view over the river you'd be sure to have a glass of something lovely with a nice relaxing view to accompany. By far the nicest bar we've been in for a while all due to the whole package and the wonderful bar team there. We will definately pay the Rum Puncheon again, well worth a visit after a long walk along the canal from Higham to Gravesend.

Good beer here , got myself some neck oil

Nice little place will be going back

Friendly staff, quick service, lovely ambience.

Beautiful venue and very friendly staff

Beer had a funny taste, nice deco and staff.

A small group of us booked 2 tables for a few birthday beers - the staff were extremely welcoming and everything was "Covid secure" and well organised. Surprisingly, it was the first time we've been to this pub, but will definitely be visiting again.

Friendly little pub, staff are welcoming. Can be a bit cold in the beer garden as the wind comes straight of the river.

Great little pub on the river. We visited when only outdoor seating was open due to lockdown and the staff were helpful. Looking forward to visiting again when back to 'normal. Food smelled lush!

Lovely quirky pub, with a great garden and fantastic staff 😁

Hi think you need to say you take card as says cash only kind regards Paul

Went here 10 years ago, I think. From what I can remember it was a fab day drinking in the garden. Great location for a bar, right on the river. Walked past it the other day, made me miss it, so I took a picture from the outside looking up.

Friendly staff. Good selection of beers and lager. Fantastic location on the River front with an open log burning fire place

Friendly no nonsense pub. Liked it

Attended a 50th birthday party on there function room. A hood time was had by all!

Nice atmosphere and good selection of wines. Good value with competitive pint prices.

Went there after a long break as they had gone downhill in food quality,but I am glad to say that this is no longer the case the food was great, but drinks prices are high I had a whisky and mixer and the charge for the mixer was £1.20 which made the payment for roast and desert with a soft drink to over £52

Can't quite say why, but I liked this place. The beer was excellent and the locals, including the bar staff were very friendly. Well worth a visit.

Good outside area on river front

Made a first visit yesterday. Charming Thameside pub, pleasant aromas from their kitchen! Will definitely be returning😀

Staff very friendly..food outstanding..

Very nice food and staff . Something missing from atmosphere, maybe some soft music

No food and not very welcoming, parking only in public car parks. Outside furniture badly needed updating.

Great pub with a basic but pleasant beer garden. It's quieter than other pubs in the area so you're much more likely to get a table for a summer evening drink.

Nice seats outside with views of the river and friendly locals

Staff are helpful and food is delicious will definitely go again.

Great little pub just as you get off the ferry, great staff with a lovely atmosphere

Have visited the Rum Puncheon in Gravesend a few times now, but this Sunday was the best! As it was the launch of their roast dinners! WOW! A Beautiful hot home made roast it was indeed! I have been to many restaurants for roasts which have been either microwaved or left under hot lights, but this roast dinner totally exceeded my expectations! I seriously couldn’t have done any better making it myself at home! We will definitely be back! Thank you to the staff who were so lovely! .. I can thoroughly recommend the Rum Puncheon for good atmosphere, friendly welcoming staff and excellent food :)

Best riverside pub in Gravesend

Great selection of beers and ciders fantastic prises

Nice riverside pub. Good for a quick ale

A great riverside pub with a friendly atmosphere, I often enjoy a pint of beer from the varied selection available and a pizza, freshly made and hot from the oven.

Really nice atmosphere, friendly bar staff and a good Guinness.

Beautiful.If you want a sophisticated classy atmosphere...this is the place.Owners are welcoming and friendly.Highly recommend.

Just popped into this pub what a lovely place and the new owners are so friendly and easy to get on with and serve a range of well kept beers well recommended

Nice pint, good pizza and nice surroundings

Nice place, friendly environment

Excellent service today, great selection of ales along with the fine weather we had a great lunchtime.

They advertise some good beers but none were available, no bottled alternatives either. The function room upstairs had several lightbulbs that were either missing or not working and also a broken toilet seat. Great potential though...

Lovely Pub with friendly staff and a great selection of Gins and Beers! Would recommend having a drink anytime here!

First time at Rum Puncheon last night and loved it, Great G&T’s in beautiful cut crystal glasses and paper straws - will definately be returning :-)

Hardly ever open now and such a shame Gravesend has lost one of its few decent pubs. Update. Massively improved now with new owners. March 2018.

New owners very friendly.enjoy sitting in the garden in the summer.garden is going to be there next project. My grandsons love going there

Nice place if you fancy somewhere a little quieter than the town centre, but closes really early, even at weekends.

Doesn't seem to be open any more.

Used to be a really great pub with a fantastic selection of beers but we went the other weekend and they had nothing except one lager and one beer and one wine (only available by the glass). Apparently this is now a regular feature. It's a shame.

Its a gem ! Brill staff and food ! If u enjoy quality food ! Like home cooking and not expensive ! As a customer our prayers and thoughts are with Mel the owner for his daughter !

This place is empty don't know how are still open and running went here for lunch had a a burger the onion rings with burn and hard the bum was flipping pink I just wanted a burger not a hard thing to make is it. The Ales are often off and tastes like vinegar poor quality of stock if you want a good pub take a coulpe of more steps up the road and go to The Three Daws

Heard this was a great pub. Got there to find Guinness and 1 lager on. All the pumps had glasses over them and the Guinness tasted terrible. Wouldn't recommend it

Great enviroment and everyone even staff seemed to be enjoying theirselves.

Very quiet and lots of character

It's a fantastic pub with fantastic staff!

Used to be one of the best pubs in Gravesend. On the evidence of last night not any more. Don't know if they'd had delivery issues, but there was only one real ale on tap and the fridges were almost empty. In fairness the one ale available was OK, hence two stars rather than one. Friend I was with asked for disaronno and coke. The "disaronno" was clearly not proper disaronno but some cheap imitation, while the draught coke had something wrong with it meaning it just tasted like carbonated water. That drink was replaced on request with one using bottled coke, but on examination the bottle of coke was past its sell by date. So sad that this pub has come to this.

A great little pub, nice atmosphere.

Lovely atmosphere. Bit expensive.

Real Ale with some excellent local beers, good variety of tasty food. Good atmosphere, a real Gravesend gem on the waterfront.

Good laid-back (often quiet) local with wide range of ales, lagers, wines and usually some decent jazz or blues as background music.
