Advantages: Great food, nice staff, beautifully decorated pub Disadvantages: Not cheap and the Sunday menu is a little restricted
' surgery, several shops, a library, a chippie, a community centre and a village hall. Most remarkably we have not one but three pubs, all standing within staggering distance of one another on the same road.
Lest this all sound like a bit too much excitement for us country folk, I would have to say that our first impressions were that all three pubs were absolutely rubbish. That was until the George was bought by a new owner and underwent a massive and very expensive refurbishment almost a year ago.
It says a lot about how little interest we have in pubs that we hadn't been in until last month. I'd just taken a friend to visit our village jeweller (I didn't mention we had a jeweller, did I?) and as we left I suggested we go and have a drink in the pub before going home. The George was the nearest and had a nice outdoor terrace so we ...
Advantages: It's by possibly the best overall brewery around, it's relatively cheap Disadvantages: It's a mix of better Youngs beers, and the sum of the parts don;t make the whole, it's also exclusive to Sainsbury's, which means a 14 mile drive for me!
StGeorge ? patron saint of England. Symbol of English spirit, bravery in the face of adversity, stiff upper lip. What better personification of this great land to choose for a thoroughly English ale? And so we have Young?s StGeorge?s. Never heard of it? No, well neither have I!
Having seen this ale mentioned in the hallowed lists of ciao, I felt pangs of guilt that I hadn?t even heard of this ale. Even worse was that it was brewed by the fair hands of Young?s, whose Double Chocolate Stout, London Ale, Waggle Dance and Old Nick all feature regularly in my beer cupboard restocking (yes, I do have a cupboard just for beer!) The shame of it. Would people point and whisper behind my back if they knew I hadn?t heard of this ale? Would ciao members in their hundreds turn their backs on my ops, even those loyal few who know of my addictions ...
Advantages: good food and atmosphere Disadvantages: none
At the weekend we were visiting my brother in law who has just moved to Kent. Because he does not know the area very well, finding somewhere to have a nice pub lunch was always going to be a bit hit or miss, but very luckily, we stumbled across The GeorgeInn at Trottiscliffe which was a very welcome find.
It is tucked away in the small village of Trottiscliffe which is near West Malling. It has a very welcoming and old fashioned appearance from the outside and has ample car parking. Inside there are quite a few tables tucked away in lots of different areas which gives the inn quite a cosy feel to it. I am mainly going to be commenting on the food and the service but I did notice that it has quite a reputation for real ale which is good to know if you don't have to drive.
The pub is family run and everyone who worked there that we came ...
