Evening visit, we played some good oldies on the CD juke box, unfortunately the vinyl one is still out of order.

Early evening visit, and they were getting ready for bands playing later on. Regrettably the juke box appears to be out of order, a shame as it is a superb example of one of the bigger Rock Ola machines with some great vinyl on it. I hope they find someone suitable qualified to repair it at a sensible price.

Evening. Lively conversational barman and good to see 2 Kentish ales. Miffed that I was not prompted for the CAMRA discount, a lost customer focus opportunity in a tourist City with many casual customers.

Afternoon visit on my way back from the Canterbury Food & Drink Festival. The girl behind the bar was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about beer.

John said they had a killer jukebox in here and he was dead right. The first album on it was the Best of ACDC. Rock n Roll. Free wifi too! Used to come here a lot 20 years ago when it was the Three Compasses. Other than the beer line-up (which used to include Fremlins), the colour of the walls (now red) and the lack of seating (although I've a feeling the Three Compasses didn't have much seating either) it was much the same. Not sure I think much of the new pub name though.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Sharp's - Doom Bar4.00GoodHad to have 2 pints of this whilst we waited for our music to come on the jukebox.
