Working away from home as job I visit a lot of place for food so decided to come here. The bar staff were friendly and the locals greeted you and made the effort to have a chat. For food I ordered the lamb shank with veg and mashed potato, the lamb was seasoned perfectly with salt, cracked black pepper and thyme, it fell off the bone and melted in your mouth, the mash was creamy and smooth and the veg was cooked perfectly, I've been all over the UK and visited some lovely places and this is up there with best. Would highly recommend

Great venue with great staff who are always pleased to help and make sure you’re well fed and watered. Sunday roasts are one of the best in Ashford, if not Kent and the entertainment is second to none compared to other venues in the area.

They've made a really nice outdoor seating area, they have some under cover outdoor seating and sometimes have a bouncy castle up for kids.

First time visited as camping locally. Read reviews and appears to have changed hands back in 2017, now advertising home cooked food. On entering the language at the bar was rather fruity (swearing) however once seated was very cosy. Lots of fairy lights dotted around. Limited menu but something for everyone at reasonable prices. Good drinks selection and a lovely NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Its not waitress service, you order at the bar. Generous portions of which were lovely, however we were not offered a dessert menu so assume only starters and mains. Would not hesitate to return.
