Summary
A “good standard of food, pleasant environment and roaring log fire in the bar” sums up the appeal of this spruced-up village boozer from the Rocksalt group. (Mark Sargeant, the former Gordon Ramsay protégé who built Rocksalt over 12 years with his business partner Josh De Haan, announced his departure in November 2021.)
Summary
Ex-Ramsay chef Mark Sargeant’s Farrow-and-Balled village boozer combines “very friendly and engaging service with a well-expected yet deceptively simple menu” – and continues to score solid feedback and the odd out-and-out rave.

"Lovely gastropub in a pretty Kent village. Food is very good & beer well kept. "
