After a day of exploring Dover Castle and walking through Biggin Street, we decided to dine at this…read more popular and recommended pub. A perfect place to rest and recount our adventures for the day. There were quite a few diners in, and the space seemed a lot larger once inside, with a bar and several rooms to accommodate small and large parties. We were seated near a party of 10! Service was friendly and leisurely, which we welcomed. Only one staff was taking and distributing orders and he advised of the delay in service. The food was delicious and had we more time in town, would likely have dined in again.

This place is fantastic, easy walk from Dover Castle and just so happens to be Dovers oldest pub. The menu for lunch is small, feels like it's because they want to do things right. The fish and chips- highly recommend. However unless you are starving I recommend you split it with a friend. When we arrived we were immediately greeted, service was excellent. For families like us, they do have high chairs. They will take your order if you sit inside. There's also an outdoor garden however you need to come to the counter to order. Same with drinks. Each room has a lot of history. Take one look around and there's a lot going on. Apparently this location used to be a part of monastery and has evolved over the years now to a great pub. Each dish we enjoyed, the vegetarian linguine was fresh, chips were delicious and the fish was wonderful. If you're cruising in and need a place for a good meal not too far from the port or to Dover Castle- I recommend you swing on in. Highly casual so you can come as is or for special occasion.

The fish was fresh and tasty and the veg was some of the freshest I've had in a restaurant. My wife didn't care for the sauce on her salmon, but I thought it tasted fine. Service was good, though there was some confusion when an order for lemonade yielded a lemon-lime soda, a la 7up. The table next to us ordered beef stew, chicken hunter, and a cottage pie and said it was all delicious (we thought it looked pretty good too). Overall, a nice dinner out.

It is so dull and devoid of any atmosphere it makes Starbucks look like Betty's tea rooms in Harrogate. Avoid like the plague Unless that is ,your television is broken and you are so bored that you need to watch a 3 metre flatscreen TV and avoid most human interaction in the company of a chubby disinterested member of staff keeping a keen eye on the cricket.....

A can of Diet Coke, and a regular coke with the sandwich was only £4 (what a great deal). People getting off the train were walking right by this place and heading for town, and they were missing out on some great food. Too bad they're closed on Sunday, or I would be going back for another great breakfast sandwich. Jolly good mate!
