I do worry about this pub. For the first time visitor Alan does not make you feel very welcome. First time for a couple of visits when beer has been in good condition too. For the flagship Goachers pub it should sing, not grumble that there are customers. Still happy memories here.

Almost perfect condition but in the butter toffee mode rather than light and citrus. Good mouth feel but i would guess some toffee biscuit malt here. Hop has tingle but less orange tangerine notes
In Wyatt Street, one of three Goacher's tied pubs. Décor has not been updated for some time, but that adds to the joy of this quiet pub. Light, Mild and Stout on regularly. If you like Goacher's, then come here. Also, if you like a quiet pub with no airs or graces that serves well crafted beers then this is your place. The long standing licensee of nearly 37 years (Alan) left in late February 2015 bringing a phase of the pub to an end. Pub closed for a week then re-opened under new tenants, Matt and Gina who were themselves replaced by Alex and Polly in February 2018. The 3 original handpumps have now become 4. Secluded rear garden. Local CAMRA branch Pub of the Year 2016,
CAMRA West Kent Pub of the Year 2016, CAMRA Kent Pub of the Year 2016.
We have visited this pub 595 times, seen 11 different beers and tried them all.
