Evening visit. Had a peek as the almost completed stone paved rear garden, nicely secluded and spacious and already half of it is in use.

Just after 4pm opening time. A few in already - I like the seating here - up high and facing each other across the walkway - conducive to conversation. I was offered the 10p a pint CAMRA discount without asking. Very good value.

| Four Candles - NZ Double Hop | 4.50 | | Nice but didn’t live up to the hoppiness the name suggested. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 7 | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - East Kent India Pale Ale | 6.50 | Not Tried | On my bike - so reluctantly had to pass on this. |

Steady stream of customers with plenty of banter.
Nice to see this Micropub has resisted to go down the keg road, still only cask available and just as it should be.

Just after the 3pm opening time and I’m 5th customer. Last visited here soon after it had just opened so was still very much work in progress, over 3 years on and bar a lick of paint and a few pictures on the walls, not much has changed but that is no bad thing as the ambiance in here this afternoon was wonderful with banter flying around I could have stayed here till closing time 👍

The pub is found in Faversham, Kent, ME13 8NS.
Faversham's first Micropub, at the Market Place end of Preston Street, which opened on 18th December 2014 having previously been open for a short while as a pop-up during the town's Hop Festival in the autumn. Shop conversion from a wet fish shop. Small oblong room, sparsely decorated, with large central skylight. High wall mounted benches provide the seating at high tables. Small bar counter in the far left hand corner is equipped with 6 wall mounted handpumps and 1 on the counter top for the real ale and cider dispense. Unisex toilet at the back. Lost the apostrophe in its name with recent new signage!
We have visited this pub 74 times, seen 196 different beers and tried 102 of them.
