First visit for many a year and pleased that this wonderful pub stir remains unchanged, full of character a good pint of Master Brew and excellent Bangers n Mash.
Shepherd Neame - Master Brew Bitter | 3.70 | | In a world full of over hopped, DDH, unfined Mango infused citrus IPAs at 9.5% and all that nonsense etc... this was excellent and exactly what I wanted a nice dry hoppy ale with a nice malt finish. In other words, a pint of Bitter. |

Probably the best Sheps pub one can visit, retaining a proper oldy worldy feel with the smell of a coal fire to add to the atmosphere. We sat in the front bar with another customer discussing the music of Dusty Springfield and Petula Clark.
Shepherd Neame - Bishops Finger | 5.00 | | I've not seen this in a Sheps pub for ages and it didn't disappoint. |

We sat in one of the little snugs and enjoyed the wonderful surroundings but hated being forced to listen to Heart FM on the pub's radio.

On a long bike ride from Broadstairs to Faversham and this was our first stop-off after finding out we couldn't get on a brewery tour. Love the character of the place, just a shame the beer is so mundane.
Shepherd Neame - Whitstable Bay Premium Ale | 4.10 | | If forced to criticise this beer I'd say it was a tad too sweet but it was actually pretty enjoyable. |

Evening - latish. Sat in the iconic small front bar.
Shepherd Neame - Mild | 3.50 | | Nutty. Brewed, I understand, on the main brewery plant |

Evening trip with a local. Very welcoming and cosy in the back bar.
Shepherd Neame - Double Stout | 4.00 | | Tasting notes describe as a magnificent example of a classic double stout delivering a velvety-smooth palate of dry, burnt flavours - complemented by roast, cocoa and coffee notes. Black, creamy and delicious. I felt initial euphoria in the glass subsided a little as pint went down |
