Early Tuesday evening. Only 3 other customers in, this place could take well over a hundred.

| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 | | In good condition- but I was offered up a pint with a head of about 1.5 inches. “Some people like it like that” the barmen said - I had it topped up by another inch. |

The pub is found in Capel-le-Ferne, Kent, CT18 7JJ.
Large roadside house in New Dover Road on the Folkestone to Dover road. Plenty of history here. According to the excellent Kent Pub History website http://www.dover-kent.com/Valiant-Sailor-Capel.html “Originally called the "Jolly Sailor" this pub changed name some time after 1819.” Done out in a corporate style. Spacious U shape layout around the bar with a pool table on one side and a restaurant layout in the rest. Closed in late October 2025 - reason unknown.
We have visited this pub once, seen 1 beer and tried it.
