Rather quiet for my lunchtime visit with my wife. The place was pleasantly decorated for St Patrick's Day. Food was as good as ever and staff friendly as usual.

Fairly quiet this Tuesday lunchtime (we normally come on Wednesdays) but as friendly as ever. Another great meal for myself, my wife and my friends. Was told by the Landlord that he was soon to put on a Hook Norton ale.

The pub is found in Brook, Kent, TN25 5PG.
Allegedly built in 1609 this is an ancient house located in The Street. In 1804, the house was given the title the "Honest Miller", the significance of which dates back to the Saxons when a miller cheated the Romans by giving them a short measure. His ears were cut off as a penance and warning to others. After this millers not wishing to fall into the same category as their luckless and earless colleague hung a sign stating they were "Honest Millers". The pub has had many owners over the years. 3 handpumps on the bar counter.
We have visited this pub 86 times, seen 36 different beers and tried 28 of them.
