Mid evening visit until the last orders bell. Business ticking over but there was talk of the previous night being rammed. Bit of a walk from the station as Station Road relates to the location of the original Swanley Junction railway station. £4 pp a bit more than your usual Kent Micropub.

The pub is found in Swanley, Kent, BR8 8ET.

Micropub which opened in June 2018 in one half of a converted public WC building (the other half being a taxi office) in Station Road (note NOT Station Approach). Originally a small one roomed house with a bar counter and 4 handpumps. Cider/perry is served on gravity dispense from a rear room. Tiled floor, part of which has an inlay of old bottle tops, and basically furnished with bench seats and high stools at low and high tables. Potentially large outside seating area which could more than double the pub’s capacity. Unisex toilet. In summer 2023 obtained the other half of the former pub toilets building and extended into it for extra seating and toilet facilities.

We have visited this pub once, seen 3 different beers and tried 2 of them.
