A real ale oasis for over 30 years, the Will Adams serves two to three guest ales along with cider and perry, including Westons Old Rosie which does not meet CAMRA's definition of real cider. Pete welcomes both home and away fans on Gillingham FC home games, typically opening early and getting very busy. Will Adams was a mariner born in Gillingham who opened up Japan to the West and became a Samurai, this being the theme of the mural on the pub's walls. It is open evenings and weekend lunchtimes. Generally 2 changing beers Monday to Friday but may be more on Saturdays during Gillingham FC home football matches, during which from 3-4.45 the pub is closed. Owners took over in 1993, great little back street pub just 10 minutes walk from the railway station. Being listed in the 2024 Good Beer Guide the pub celebrated 30 continuous years of inclusion.
