    One of two Nice village pubs. Adequate garden but there are better if that's important to you. On Fridays has a visiting Pizza van which offers fab take-away pizzas at reasonable prices.

    Very small food portions. Large meal was just 1 sausage more than a small. Not worth the price difference. We had about 10 beans. Food is decent though last time some chips were raw. The building is very cold inside. They use some cleaning chemicals at the bar which burns your throat and eyes. Edit. 6 months on no better.. Broken toilet seat in ladies cut the back of my legs. Reported to the barmaid who said toilets were not her responsibility. No sorry or offer if 1ST aid. Pub up the road packed at lunchtime. This one now almost empty.

    Fantastic friendly little pub. Got stuck in the village for a couple of hours with the kids and couldn't have been made more welcome. Great pint of Whitstable Bay and the oxtail crisps are great !

    Great countryside pub. Very welcoming owners and the beer garden is beautiful. Try The Woodman's burger it's top notch 😊😊 I highly recommend for a nice meal or a drink with friends.

    Visited today very welcoming pub but the food selected Chilli Con Carne was sadly tasteless - ingredients needs to be revisited

    Lovely welcome. Just popped in for a bit as we went for a wander. Ended up having lunch (well we ordered 2 starters to share). Just a good pub…the way I like pubs to feel.

    A group of us had a wonderful Sunday lunch today at The Woodman. Alice was very welcoming and attentive. Food was delicious. I recommend this lovely warm friendly pub.

  • 5/5 Rosemary G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great pub. You can buy a freshly baked pizza cooked outside and eat it in the pub - perfect! Every Friday.

    Had a lovely charity evening at the pub, let down by the awful food, not just a one off as four of us at our table had equally poor food.

  • 5/5 Karen S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very welcoming. Enjoyed lunch of fish and chips. Will return in the summer to make use of the garden

  • 4/5 Mikey C. 4 years ago on Google
    It's a great place in many ways. A local that tries to make everyone welcome and I like that. Small but big enough and in summer great to sit outside. Food is well above average and they try to put on some variety. Book if you want to eat though generally you will be fine. As with most locals there is the local faction blocking the bar area but I guess they rely on guys like that to keep them going

    Great pub, amazing owners and all in all great experience. The food is freshly prepared by a very well experienced chef who goes above and beyond to get every detail to specification.
