Some one else has used the term hidden gem to describe this pub. Absolutely right.

It was a nice sunny day and we enjoyed the view across the channel. The landlady chatted with us about various aspects of the pub trade.

17:00 visit. A short bus ride from nearby Hythe found me visiting lovely Sandgate, a very pleasant seaside town. Again, not been here since early childhood. The pub itself was excellant, a "hidden gem" I was told, and so it was, and well worth finding. An ex Shep's house by all accounts and some very good ales on too. Nice crowd in and a friendly landlord.

An excellent evening, four real ales on, and at very reasonable prices too. Buses run close by at ten minute intervals during the day so I will definitely be back. Unfortunately I forgot to make a note of all the beers that were available.

This pub is now a Free House, and has changed its name slightly to Earl of Clarendon. Little has changed inside, and I had a good chat with the new landlord.

The pub is found in Sandgate, Kent, CT20 3DH.
The pub is located on the steep slopes above the sea front in Brewers Hill. Your thirst will replace your loss of puff as you arrive. 2 roomed local with 4 handpumps in the right hand bar. Enjoy sea views in clement weather by sitting out on the tables on the now pedestrianised pathway at the front. Once called the Clarendon Inn and has, in the past been a Mackeson, Whitbread and Shepherd Neame house.
We have visited this pub 18 times, seen 40 different beers and tried 22 of them.
