We cycled here with a thunderstorm straight ahead of us. The pub was empty except for the staff. It was friendly as always and a short lived power cut caused by the storm made it even more enjoyable.

The pub is found in Staple, Kent, CT3 1LE.

A really old pub in Barnsole Road. The kind of pub you could imagine walking into after a hard day working as a farmhand and having a pint of Fremlins (RIP). It has 3 rooms: 1 is a public bar that's got a large TV, pool table etc. another is the dining room and the 3rd is the saloon bar. The pub used to be a brewery. Friendly enough and fairly busy for the middle of nowhere.

We have visited this pub 12 times, seen 13 different beers and tried 10 of them.
