Evening. Open later than it used to be. Good conversation at the pulpit including with 3 beer and cider loving German fellows, Dad and 2 sons who I initially thought were Dutch. The landlord explained afterwards that they had mainly spoken Plattdeutsch but that the 2 sons spoke High German when speaking together.

Evening. Poor timing after a Barfrestone visit. Arrived at 2140 at the very moment the lights were switched off, the key turned in the front door as the Guvs left. My fault for guessing it might have the extra hour or so on Friday and Saturday as so many Micropubs do.

This pub opened on Tuesday 12 August and this was my first visit here. It is run by Peter and Kathryn Garstin who I know from their time running Blakes of Dover, Peter told me of another micropub opening that evening at Barfreston and also told me that the Arlington micropub in Dover is expected to open at the end of this month.
Prices here are very reasonable with beers under 4% being priced at £2.60 and those between 4.1 and 4.9% being priced at £2.80 per pint.
| Oakham - Bishops Farewell | 4.60 | | |
| RCH - Pitchfork | 4.30 | | Very good indeed. |
| RCH - East St Cream (was East Street Cream) | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
