The Spyglass and Kettle in Medway

Been to this pub a few times and highly recommend food Annette was so professional, friendly and nothing was s problem in fact all staff members are excellent

Absolutely amazing pub. Annette is lovely as are all the staff. Good is cracking and atmosphere is great! Would definetly reccomend coming here

Great food, nice table for all 8 of us, food was great, hot and all served together. Fantastic service especially Annette she was lovely!

Food was lovely we all chose different things and all of us enjoyed it!! Annette was very attentive despite being rushed off her feet!! Would definitely recommend!!

I often eat and drink here with my friends, and we always receive a really warm welcome from the staff, particularly Nettie. The food is tasty and good value for money, and always a good atmosphere. Wednesday night quiz nights are good fun, and I also love live music nights.

Brilliant pub, we eat here often, food is extremely tasty and great value. Would definitely recommend to eat here, we often wait around 30 minutes for food sometimes comes quicker than expected, but haven't got a bad thing to say about the spyglass and kettle.

Nice welcoming pub,all the staff are friendly and the food is fantastic.

This establishment is a great place for a lunch or a after work drinks Staff are friendly and great service and atmosphere

Didn't eat here, just went in for a beer. Lacked a bit of atmosphere, not many people in, unlike the Saucer used to be on a Saturday evening. Smiley bar staff though.

We went there on Sunday 6th October and we were absolutely disappointed with the food it was well overcooked and out of 6 of us only 1 person ate it due to being hungry all it was dry and hard we left saying we would never go back

Poor on everything except the beer.. Cleaned my plate the 15 chips etc because we were hungry , left pub still hungry. went home and raided the fridge. This was one we wish we had avoided , the cost/portion size we were ripped off . Don't worry owners we won't be back you lifted more than enough of our money.

Good honest food, friendly bar staff, great place to catch up with family

Good community atmosphere with weekly craft group 🙂

Had a big family meal for my daughters birthday and I can't fault the service we had from kyia and the kitchen team for the hospitality we was a group of 19 of us at very short notice and the pub was really busy. So I'd like to thank the staff for the hard work they put in. Me and my family will definitely return

Brilliant Pub .sports mad one end of the pub and nice restaurant the other. Sweet staff . 5☆

Came here for lunch and meet up with in-laws, we booked an earlier table, we arrived and went to bar, lent on it and when I pulled my forearms away I thought I was going to tear my skin away the surface was that sticky, the barmaid who gave the impression she didn’t want to be there got our wine bottle order wrong twice claiming all she heard was “pinot Grigio “ not piñon Grigio rose” , what twice!? Went to table and for god’s sake also sticky, I don’t know what they use to clean but it must be a mixture of water and glue, no surface, if cleaned properly should leave a sticky residue, it’s not difficult! I have to say that for the price point the food was fine, service needs a lot of attention. The exterior of the premises needs an overhaul , rotten and unpainted windows just show a shoddy service and lack of care, in the days where it’s difficult running a public house you should, at the very least make it look attractive to potential new customers, but no it was a we don’t care attitude, and get some staff who actually want to work and please customers, not look at you as if you are asking for too much, it’s a drink and food, not exactly difficult, but it clearly was for the bar staff Will not be going back unless I have to to meet the in-laws Sort it out please

The pub Smells really bad and service was rubbish they seemed like they didn’t want us there. Tables wasn’t cleared. And they was sticky

Great food, always hot and well cooked. Comfortable seating and friendly staff. I havent given it 5 stars as I've visited a few times this summer and the ladies toilet seats are all broken and not secure, which is dangerous and unsafe. How long can simple fixes take.

great pub. great service. great atmosphere 👍

I have had such an an amazing experience at the spyglass, Aila’s customer service is incredible, I can’t fault her at all, she remembered our drink order andshe had such great chat with us the whole night, will definitely come back if all the servers are like her.

I’ve come with a very dear friend mine and Alia has made me and my friend Sarah feel so welcome has been amazing! Well. We had such an outstanding experience due to your team and will be recommending to all our friends!!

Very friendly, lovely staff, we love bringing our children here. In the kids words this is better then 10/10 it's 1000! It's banging!

Absolute Stars Excellent evening at The Spy tonight, an engagement party for 40 plus people. Understandably busy for a Saturday night, plus there was another band in the other bar, staff ensured all punters were served in a timely manner. Can only sincerely thank Kyia and Cameron. You were both brilliant. We had ordered food to come out at a specific time, and the chef, Ryan, ensured it all happened as planned. It was a very busy evening for the team, but they were all superb. We can't fault the evening. Absolute Stars!. All of them. Thank you all for making our evening special.

Had a family engagement party there last night. Great food and atmosphere. Staff friendly.

I arrived at the Spyglass yesterday and was greeted promptly Via the bar staff Rachel, and could not be more helpful. Food was great and served Via Kyia. Both were polite and friendly I will definitely re visit this venue and recommend to my friends.

We ordered food and it took almost 2 hours to arrive because they "lost our order". We ended up leaving with our food in little bags because they refused to give a refund. The prices may be cheap but thats because they a very few staff and no service.

Just had a really lovely lunch here today 7-8-24 great food couldnt fault it one bit my 9 yr old ate a large cod meal, great food great service

The food is so hot it could give an arsonist third degree burns but other than that it was good

Visited the pub today because of the £5 burgers, which were so much better than expected. It was extremely busy when we arrived, yet the staff thrived despite the large amount of food and drink orders. We also didn't wait too long for food, and when it came we weren't disappointed. Will be visiting again!

come like an hour before you're hungry 😂it's a cute place with really good prices. the food was good but not worth the waiting. worst tomato I've ever had tho haha

Decent if you just want a quiet pint with your friends however the customer service is far from good. It’s almost like it’s a chore to be served, once you are served it is fine. PS - I saw a rat behind the kitchen while i was in the pub garden.

absolutely fantastic service throughout the time there, especially as this was a work meal so quite a few of us there and england was playing so the staff definitely had a lot going on that night. excellent menu variety and really tasty food. they have food deals on during the week aswell and for a good price. would highly recommend spyglass and kettle and will definitely be going again

Great meal great environment and great service and a great atmosphere during the England match will highly recommend to family and friends

I recently met up here with some friends from work for dinner and drinks while watching the Euros, and it was fantastic. The atmosphere was lively, making it a great spot for an evening out. The menu had a variety of options at affordable prices, so everyone found something they liked. Thank you to the staff who did an amazing job accommodating our group of 10+ people and handled all our requests perfectly. I would highly recommend this place to friends and family… Definitely worth a visit!

Lovely staff, the ladies there were spot on and were very quick to take orders and get food and drink out despite it being very busy with the England match on , great atmosphere and definitely worth the visit

Fantastic food and great service easy located. Has all the correct stuff you would expect from a pub. Nice garden. Very friendly staff

Food came out after waiting 45+ minutes not the first time this has happened the food was not as good as other green king pubs it was warm but not hot the onion rings where soggy and had to wait for mine to be brought out after my burger arrived

Good pub, good food well priced, helpful staff.

Amazing stuff, amazing food! Honestly would recommend coming back here. Tilly and mel are the loveliest people with the best service.

Fantastic service and atmosphere. We hired the sports bar for a private event and it was perfectly catered for and enjoyed by all. Thank you!

Came to watch the football had a great time. Food was served hot and quickly. Diane and Charlie kept my glass filled up. Thanks everyone! Will deffo be back.

I bring my Mum to the Spyglass most Thursdays. The food is lovely and very affordable. My Mum has 2 courses for just £5.99! The staff really do go the extra mile. Highly recommend.

Local and friendly pub. The staff are welcoming and there are lots of well-organised events taking place during the week and at different times of the year. The kitchen puts out some very tasty food and the bar is always well stocked with favourites. Televisions are conveniently situated for viewing major sports tournaments and there is a real family and friends atmosphere. Would rate this as one of the best GK pubs in Medway and more low key and personalised rather than Cricketers Rainham. The bar staff always make you feel very welcome and have time for conversation and get drinks orders right.

Great friendly pub with very cheerful and helpful staff we quiz every Wednesday love this venue so cosy with great atmosphere. Manager is also very helpful making sure we're booked into for the quizzes every week From Gemma kemp and James

Charlie top guy,well worth promoting

The bar staff were super friendly and according. Great pub for sports and atmosphere

Staff were amazing, food was plenty, was there for a family wake.

Place was dirty and tables sticky

Food is OK, service is shambles. First and last time

The food was really nice. There was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it.

Lately every time we come for Wednesday quiz night there is a huge delay in food, tonight being 1.5hrs. Nobody told us there was a wait on food until we asked 45 mins after ordering. Staff don’t seem fussed and are quite rude. After this happening for the 5th time I don’t think I will bother coming again sadly as it seems to have gone really downhill. They say they are understaffed but when the pub is less than half empty and there are four employees on front house this shocks me. Management need a big re-think and to get a lot of improvements done, especially when food has just about been edible lately and with children’s orders coming out with about 5 chips on the plate which is disappointing.

Absolutely brilliant pub. Real good food and staff and Mel the manger run a very nice clean organised pub

We came in for lunch on a Monday afternoon. It was very quiet. We ordered food through the app, and drinks at the bar as some were not included in the app menu. When we approached the bar to ask a question about the menu, two members of staff blankly walked away when being approached. After waiting for around 30 mins we asked for an update on our food twice. When it arrived after 45 mins we were only then told there was a delay on all food being served, but no real explanation or apology was given. The food was mostly edible, but wouldn’t say it was enjoyable at all. It obviously was reheated, but still had time for some elements to go cold again. While I understand there was a known delay, the overall attitude and approach from all of the staff we encountered was disappointing. They didn’t seem interested, and were un phased by the low quality of their food and their service today. If I ever visit again, I very much hope for a vast improvement on todays’ experience, as the beautiful setting offers so much potential for a nice afternoon.

popped in just before 5 pm today had a lovely meal Isla barmaid was lovely and helpful

Bar was a bit slow at times but other than that a really good pub with reasonable priced beer

A nice young man called Camron served me on the bar he was a very polite and friendly gentleman, would highly recommend coming here Thank you for making my night a successful one

Camron was fantastic and very entertaining. Excellent service. The food and drinks were lovely and would definitely come back!

We come here every Wednesday for quiz night and cheap food. We always get a nice warm welcome from Annette. She is a credit to the pub.

Outstanding service and atmosphere, always friendly staff happy to help. Charlie will always go that extra mile to make your visit a pleasurable one and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend.

Only popped in for a beer all ok looks like a nice pub

A nice pub, with good food deals especially for senior citizens. Well worth a visit

A big group of 9 adults and 6 children of us came for a drink, lunch and desserts. The service was quick and the food was lovely, everybody including the children cleared their plates. Reasonably priced and friendly staff.

This pub is situated in Wigmore near Rainham, Kent. It has a large car park with spaces for wheelchair users and good access. Inside there are two defined areas, one for dining and the other for mostly drinkers. There are TVs situated throughout showing sports but this is not intrusive. There is a good range of drinks and some very competitive prices in cocktails and shots. Food wise, there are various menus including one for kids and a special seniors menu where you can get a two course meal for just £5.49. On the main menu there is also a section of "pub classics" where you can get 2 meals for £11.49. There is a similar offer on their Sunday roast. The pub has a nice vibe, friendly etc. The lady behind the bar was friendly,lively and had a good rapport with everyone. They really needed someone to help her as she was run off her feet. Our food came up in good time and was hot and well cooked. We were checked upon so they knew when we were ready for our next course. All in all a pleasant experience and I would be happy to go back.

Lovely staff. Very jolly and talkative!

Lovely catch up with the girls tonight. Friendly staff at the Spyglass and the food was amazing as always! This place never lets us down Thank you

Great staff ! Great drinks ! Sports bar with darts and 2 pool tables! Plenty of food to choose from on the menu with great service

Amazing service especially from bar staff Aila , would highly recommend

Great pub, great staff, friendly atmosphere plus it shows sport!

Manager went above and beyond for us with a big family dinner, thank you so much. Lovely food, great service.

Came here with the family for lunch and was a very welcoming friendly place food was great and well priced. Staff were brilliant.

Lovely staff, good food - great local pub ! I’ve been a returning customer many times and will continue to visit!!!!!!!!

Rude Staff, Take ages to serve you drinks and blatantly ignore you. Food is nice, but poorly presented with little effort.

Was in here on the Sunday, had a great time, staff were brilliant as usual. Love coming in here, can’t speak highly enough of the place.

Booked the room with Pool Tables as we had a booking of 20 people, children and adults. Ordered food, came out within 15 minutes of ordering. Cheap food and drink. Kids were entertained, being able to play pool and adults equally entertained as the football was on the tv. Lovely bite to eat out!

We attended a birthday meal here Sunday, there was a large number of us the service was spot on and food was outstanding. I definitely be going back

Sunday lunch was great and service was fantastic, all sport was on too all day, was brilliant fun with friends

Great food and service, we went for a family birthday and manager was really accommodating - would highly recommend.

Hired the sports bar for small gathering Such a great sized space and very reasonably priced Catering was lovely too Will definitely be using it again for a function

Good customer service with smile, nothing was too much trouble. Good food

Waited 75 minutes to get our order and it was terrible chips hard peas like bullets scampi …I think….my advice "…………stay clear

A venue usually needs to be pretty special to get 5 🌟 from me, however although the meal was good the customer service was excellent. It was certainly service with a smile. Every member of staff that I spoke to were polite and cheery. Food is very good value for money and tasty. There is live music every so often and all in all a good atmosphere.

We visited as a large group today for an early Christmas lunch. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Definitely recommend!

Not eaten here. Went to the Avenue Reunion. Excellent

A very nice pub with great food. Always busy at peak times so plan ahead.

Nice family pub good value for money food and drinks and dog friendly in the bar seating area.

Always good pub food, service and friendly staff. Never had a bad experience.

We were here for a private party. Had a lovely time, the staff were lovely apart from one who shouted at us when we asked for a pot of tea as she didn't have any clean cups or teapots. She brought a pot over once she had managed to wash up! The drinks were very good with a fantastic choice. The food was excellent and very reasonable The area we was in was cold but the manager gave us an electric heater. The radiator was disconnected. Greene king need to rectify this. Overall a very enjoyable evening. The beauty & The Beast shots were delicious 😋.

Came here a few weeks ago for a little bite and game of pool with my partner, was a lovely place with beautiful food. The staff was also amazing, met bartender called Charlie there who helped us out with the pool table and joined in with our banter, he has great spirit and character. All the staff was polite, over all was a great pleaseure and certainly will be returning in future :) Thank you Charlie and team for a enjoyable time.

We recently visited as a party of 18 whilst our son and partner was over from Australia. Couldn’t fault the food or service, had many a bad experience with other restaurants! Thank you so much and will be returning

Had a great first visit at this local hidden gem. The food was above average for a chain pub and the service in general was amazing. The staff were friendly and made me feel welcome. The pool table and darts board looked brand new. Will definitely be visiting again. Great atmosphere! Great food! Great staff! Thanks all

Busy pub . Good choice of beers/ Ciders . Food looked ok . Gluten Free beer £10 per pint ( bottled ). A big negative.

Charlie (the bar person) made my experience extra special! Took my drinks over to my table for me. Overheard him giving an elderly couple some advice on saving money when they order wine. What a guy! I would have him working for me just based on my experience of him. let's have more like him in this industry Linda Potter

Absolutely the WORST lunch out EVER!!! Just after ordering lunch for us plus Mum and 98 year old Dad at a reserved table and they filled the place with a queue of people wanting tickets for a future event - we have just eaten our meals surrounded by masses of people through the restaurant, noise levels off the scale and service trying to battle through the crowds. Haven't been here since my children were small and will never be coming back again!!!!

Haven't eaten here yet. However, we are very quickly becoming regulars. Mel is a superstar. You need a star rating just for her!!! We were here the last 2 weekends in a row and we don't usually go out. However we had such a good time here, we made a point to come back a second week in a row. This weekend there was a live band, after seeing the Facebook post, I wasn't too bothered, but boy was I wrong. They were fantastic, the atmosphere was electric. All I am waiting for now is a bit of karaoke ;) 110% recommend.

Went for the quiz, ordered food but it didn't arrive until the kitchen had been chased 3 times. Quiz was great though.

Friendly staff and food was amazing. Will definitely be coming back.

Gammon is excellent, Mel in the kitchen was great and aila and Annette on the bar were lovely also!

Came at 4:30 for an early dinner, only to find kitchen closed between 4 and 6pm. But in your website it says open! Thanks for ruining our 1st evening out for a long time. Totally disappointed..

Ordered food and waited an hour and a half. Turns out sometimes they just forget to actually prepare the food got a refund and left. Bar persons are very nice though.
