Four of us met up here for a meal and an unwise mix of grape and grain! Not overly busy but the service was excellent with attentive friendly staff made it an enjoyable experience.
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Unexpectedly good therefore all my SBB expectations met. |

Mid evening the bar was very busy with many practicing their false loud laughter and that's not including the screeching women. Welcome to Ashford!
Goacher's - Fine Light Ale | 3.70 | | First pint was sour but in fairness to the barmaid the barrel was changed and a few pints were pulled off to ensure my final enjoyment. |
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Not quite the Harvey's expectations as rather toffeeish. |

Very busy on a Bank Holiday Sunday lunchtime.A large group of us met for a meal in the restaurant. I was impressed with the little bar at the front, but was unable to tarry.
Goacher's - Fine Light Ale | 3.70 | | In stalwart journeyman condition. |
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

Early evening. My wife suggested it. Not my usual type of pub but very well done out, mainly as a diner. The front bar had a good feel to it, candle lit tables, a (probably fake) wood burner and a very smart red brick herringbone floor.
Goacher's - Fine Light Ale | 3.70 | | Not very lively. |
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

Mid to late afternoon and busier than expected, my first visit here after hearing glowing reports about the place so brought a friend for a meal and she was most impressed. We had time after for a drink in the bar before our bus back into town.
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | | I tentatively ordered a pint of this despite being stuffed full of food but it was so delicious it went down surprisingly well. All my Harvey's expectations satisfied. |

We were booked here for a family meal in the restaurant so I arrived early to have a couple of pints in the bar beforehand. Very busy for a Tuesday evening but staff were attentive.
Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Red Top | 3.80 | | A bit too cold for my liking. |

Lunchtime visit on day two. I think this place will fill a much needed gap in the local market. Very professionally run. I had a look at some of the menus and can't wait to eat here.
