A very quaint little pub very handily located if you are staying in the nearby Travelodge, but well worth seeking out if you are just exploring the many pubs Canterbury has to offer. The management definitely like their twinkly lights on strings as the place is filled with them (prob a bit too many for my liking) but it does add. A certain charm in the dark evenings. Definitely one I would go back to!
Lovely little pub with great food and friendly staff. We happened to stay near here, but we’re too late for food the first day (the kitchen closes at 8pm). It’s a nice but smallish pub with a warm friendly feel. However what really impressed me was the food - I ordered the chicken skewers. Three skewers with big chunks of delicious succulent chicken, plentiful chips and a big salad (I asked for no coleslaw). Mine was under 16 pounds which was very good value for money. Well worth a visit.
Always a friendly atmosphere from this pub (with a large variety of gins which is always a bonus!). Staff are so accommodating and welcoming- shout out to Jess for making our games nights run smoothly! Great to see a pub that prefers cash payments too!
Nice pub away from the hustle and bustle of Canterbury High Street. It's definitely worth looking out. Good food and a good range of beers, all served in a nicely appointed bar.
What a fantastic pub. All round pleasant experience, food was excellent with really good sized portions too, service good and not rushed at all. Absolutely happy to recommend this wonderful pub for a grand meal out.
Great food and atmosphere. Staff are very friendly. My only issue was , despite sitting near the front of the pub, I could still strongly smell the smoke coming in from the garden. It was lovely to see how dog friendly the place is.
Came here to warm up yesterday after a different pub didn't;t put their heating on. What a gem of a place, warm, welcoming, cosy with a real fire. Had the hot rum punch and it was delicious. Staff were lovely. Can't wait to return.

Absolute gem of a pub in Canterbury. Hidden away but fantastic selection of beers and loads of gin choices. No rip off prices and super friendly bar staff. Loved the place.
My wife and I made this our local watering hole on a recent visit to Canterbury.
Within walking distance of the town centre (and our hotel) it offers a good place to relax and wind down after a days outing exploring the historic city.
Good traditional pub atmosphere.
Comfortable leather seats.
Helpful, friendly staff.
Good selection of beers on tap and has a gin theme with a many blends to choose from.
Generous quantities, basic, wholesome pub grub at reasonable prices.
No parking.
I’m pretty picky when it comes to pubs and so I’m pleased to say I had a very enjoyable visit to this fabulous venue, situated in one of Canterbury’s prettiest lanes, not far from the City Centre, with a beautiful beer garden out the back. Enjoyed the Timothy Taylor’s Golden Best ale on cask, served in a jug and in superb condition at just the right temperature for a warm day. The food was frankly very impressive: really chunky Ham, 2 Eggs, very tasty Chips and Salad in a large portion and cooked to perfection. All for a reasonable price given the current times and with efficient service. Recommended.
