Glad we made the effort to visit this place, after reading about it in More Tales from the Tap Room, it's a great pub. Bit of a walk from Folkestone, being just past the Sandgate Hotel, but worth the effort. It's quite a small Shepherd Neame pub, but cosy and friendly. Had four ales on (Best, Spitfire, Porter and something else) for me, and a good range of chocolate behind the bar that pleased Clare. Didn't investigate the menu properly, though it seems there was at least one vege option.
No pool table or music even, but they did have dominoes, which we played and played. Dominoes is the new darts, you'll all be into it soon.
Definitely going to visit again, and looking forward to trying it in the summer, when it's location and outside tables will really come into their own.
This is my website The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when I first moved to Folkestone in approximately 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years before that so I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and things, and I know it was a useful reference for those who were thinking of moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we knew it was about to become. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a fake paper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
