Access is via a little long and winding country lane (famous for an appearance on top gear a few years hence) the drive to this pub can quite simply turn into a natural history lesson itself. I have seen on this drive marsh harriers, a barn owl, a tawny owl and numerous other marsh birds. Once you reach the pub the view out to the eastury is breathtaking and on a winters evening sitting in the pub looking at the cold scene outside makes the pub feel even warmer. Serving traditional pub food (deep fried camembert anyone?) it is simply yet exceptionally tasty. Very well priced and plenty of tables so you need not book. The sunday roast is especially worth a nice drive out for. Go and investigate, you won't be disappointed

The place was completely laid back, and quiet. With the remote location, every care from the outside world just left us. We were led to this huge table. The seat in the back was all pillows and comfort. The wife went straight to it. There's no sense posting what was on the tasting menu. Both because it's been a while before posting the review, and when you go it will be different. That said, the thing that this restaurant brought that is so rare when the word Michelin is brought up, is that this food is pure. It's the primary ingredient with subtle enhancements. Nothing is covered up. It was a leisurely meal. We got back to central London and just relaxed in the glow.

I think it speaks highly enough for the bread that we made the four hour return trip just to eat it again!! The surroundings still shock me, and you would certainly never pull over if you hadn't heard about this place beforehand. We went for a good walk around the local area to build up an appetite before lunch and the bleakness of the place is quite astounding. That said, it's very peaceful and you do get to see a lot of wildlife throughout the nature reserve. Anyway, back to lunch! When we arrived we perused the menu on the chalkboards and were asked to place our order at the bar. I'm always happy to do this, even in Michelin star establishments, but it did strike me as a little strange that we weren't even shown to our table at this point! The menu specialises in local produce and it's no surprise that it's heavily weighted with fish given the pub's proximity to the sea. I chose the slipsole to start and the lamb for main, and my boyfriend went for the pork terrine followed by the ox cheek. I had a glass of New Zealand Savignon Blanc with my starter and we shared a half bottle of red with our mains. The long awaited bread came to start. Just as good as we remembered and we gobbled it down quickly. We were offered a top up but declined as we didn't want to spoil our appetites for the main event. Starters came - my slipsole was served very simply with just a touch of seaweed butter, but it was cooked to perfection and tasted divine. M's pork terrine came with toast, mustard and gherkins, with some small pieces of pork crackling on the side. A great combination of flavours and textures. My lamb dish came in two parts - loin that was cooked quite rare and had a beautiful fresh flavour, and a slow cooked portion with deeper richer flavours. This was served with potato dauphinoise and a really interesting cabbage leaf that I have never come across before. M's ox cheek was rich and delicious, with wonderfully creamy mash. We shared puddings - a chocolate mouse with salted caramel and milk sorbet, and a gypsy tart - a dish local to this area which is made with evaporated milk and muscavado sugar and cooked on a really low heat. Both were delicious, and provided a huge sugar rush at the end of the meal. We finished with tea, coffee and truffles and left absolutely stuffed, but contented. The staff were equally friendly on this occasion, and we would definitely make the trip again. Next time the tasting menu!

The food here is a cut above the usual pub grub and is more a gastro pub, with a proper chef and all fresh food, meals range from about £7 to £16 for the fillet (which is VERY nice) Steaks would appear to be a speciality as they are really good but they do have a good range on the menu and usually a good few specials on the board. Beer is good if a little limited (it IS a Shepherd & Neame pub after all) Has a large garden which is nice in the summer, parking is limited and on busy nights you will have to park along the road but it no major problem.
