Just time for a quick pint before catching a train, very welcoming and chatty bar staff, definitely worth a repeat visit.

Mid afternoon, nice weather and plenty of people taking the opportunity of the riverside garden. Good selection of 4 ales being well sampled.

Got off the train from Canterbury and peered in the window to see, 1) Wife of Bath is on and, 2) they've ripped out the corner seating!
