I came in here to have a pint whilst waiting for a fast train home, I ended up having a second pint and missing the train. I had a good chat with the barman about life in Romania and betting on horses.

| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | | I was wondering if this would be on form after reading Mr. Pirrip's report. Thankfully it was very good indeed. |

Evening visit in the search for some perfect Bass.

| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 |  | Oh my past experience of super Bass here was shattered. Vineous - tried to drink it but had to send it back. It was swapped for Draught Guinness with superb grace but left on sale. |

We had just walked up the zig zag path and deserved a pint (well two pints actually), we sat by the window and had a bar snack to accompany the ale.

I like this place, and as we had to pass it on the way to Folkestone Central Railway Station we popped in for a quick pint. A fairly quiet evening, and a comfortable place to enjoy a pint of Bass.

OK, so the bar was full of a coach party who were all very retired, and I had missed my train, but the Bass in here, just as a beer, is one of the best conditioned beers I have ever had. Just amazing.

| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | | Yes, it isn't too exciting in terms of flavours, but in terms of the temperature even on a run of 2 weeks really hot weather, and the condition, just marvellous. Served in oversize glasses as well, with my pint well over the pint line. Terrific stop for a pint in 10 mins. |

I decided to pop in here for a pint before catching a train from Folkestone Central. The Bass was so good that I had another one, and missed it.

Early Sunday evening, and fairly quiet. A most enjoyable, and relaxing visit chatting with friends and bar staff.

I had a cancelled train at Folkestone Central, so a five minute cycle ride got me here for a pint of Bass.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | | Brilliant condition, great drinking bitter, 8 pints of this could disappear over an evening and no mistake. |

Early evening, just a couple of regulars, and a Scotsman who returned his pint of Fosters because it was not in a proper lager glass, whatever that is.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | | Bass seems a bit sweeter than it used to, but this was very well kept. |
