A friendly and traditional town-centre pub, which gets very busy at weekends and is a good place to watch sport on Sky or TNT. Colourful hanging baskets add to its charm in summer. Pictures of Whitstable hang in the bar. A local Kentish beer is always served. Sunday roasts are served 12-5, booking advised. Live music plays on Thursday evenings (March to December). Meat raffle on Sundays, music quiz on first Wednesday each month.
