The best restaurants serving British food in Gravesham South East

it wasn't delivered to my address!!! NO ORDER RECEIVED!!!

Sometimes you can walk into a pub or club for the first time, or even as a regular, and be met with miserable or even rude staff and those that are wrapped up in their own self-importance - but not here in The Rum Puncheon. I came in here today on recommendation from a friend called Simon who is a fire chief at Eltham. Sat for almost an hour talking with a lovely young lady behind the bar called Tess. What a credit to The Rum Puncheon she is, though she is leaving this Sunday. I'm sure she will be missed. There were two Ales on tap from Horsham's Dark Star, those being Hophead and Orbiter. I only had the hophead which was nice. With the explosion of Micro Pubs and tap Rooms though, I would like to see perhaps one or two locally produced Ales such as from Iron Pier who even brew a Pale Ale called West Street - ironic as that is where The Rum Puncheon is. That said, the two ales available here are two more than some places have that stick to their same ol same ol monotonous regular ale. I'll definitely be back base don conversation alone.

Had lunch here today with my family and was honestly blown away by the food. I’ve been a few times for a drink and live bands and always enjoyed it but the food today was incredible. Service was excellent too. It was nice and quiet also which was great for us as we were well looked after but it absolutely deserved to be busier. Will defo be back!

Absolutely disgusting. Dirty floors and tables. Miserable staff and no interaction and exceptionally slow service. As if that wasn't enough to put you off then came the food. The meat was full of fat and grissle, processed peas not garden peas and lumpy mash potato. No wonder you have to pay before getting your food because if you hadn't paid for it beforehand you would refuse to pay. Not worth anywhere near the cost. Will never return and will make sure I let people know how bad it is.
