First time I've been here. Friendly pub with three rooms and a front yard that overlooks the sea. Nice.

The usual stop-off before going to see Quantum of Solace. Fair few people in watching the football, and locals sat at the bar. Had my pint then had one of their single malts, of which they have loads.

Shepherd Neame - Master Brew Bitter3.70AcceptablePerfectly good pint of master brew. Malty with a little caramel and biscuit. Good enough.

Had half hour to spare before catching a movie so stopped in for a quick one. Quite busy with a good local feel to it. They have a fantastic range of whisky, I counted 29 single malts plus other blends. Shame the ale isn't up to the same standard.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Shepherd Neame - Master Brew Bitter3.70AcceptableThis started well with the normal biscuity caramel flavour, but then there was a bit of an unpleasant aftertaste. Did the job though.

Popped in before seeing a movie. Quite busy with all the locals engaged in proper pub conversation. Not the friendliest of welcomes from the barmaid but all in all it was pleasant enough.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Greene King - Morland Old Speckled Hen4.50AcceptableNothing special here, but as Old Speck goes, it was a perfectly drinkable pint.
