FAQ's

Where are we?
We are in a little village called Stalisfield which is 20 minutes away from all the local towns, Faversham, Ashford, Maidstone, Canterbury, Sittingbourne. We like to say we are in the middle of nowhere but the middle of everywhere – a great meeting point in Kent.
Are we dog friendly?
Yes we have dog friendly areas of the pub – just let us know when you book. We have water bowls and biscuits for our 4 legged friends too!
Is there parking?
Yes there’s plenty of parking in the pub car park.
Can I charge my electric car?
Yes – we have 2 charging stations, just pop into the pub and we’ll activate the charging point for you.
Do you have non-alcoholic drinks available?
Yes we have a good range of non-alcoholic drinks for those not drinking – we are in the middle of nowhere after all! As well as the usual stuff we’ve got lagers, ale, cider, gins, nozeco and mocktails to boot!
Are you child friendly?
Yes we have a kids menu – designed buy our own child! We have colouring pages, games, puzzles and in the garden we have swings and a slide, little guests will be just as busy as the big ones!
Can you eat outside?
Yes we have 8 tables on our patio area at the front of the pub so you can enjoy the summer vibe and views to the coast – weather permitting!
What is the vibe at the pub?
Well we are a pub but Richards cooking is amazing so the food is really good quality, the pub classic menu boasts all of your traditional pub items, burgers, fish and chips, steak etc but they are all great quality, often with a twist but keep their authenticity, the blackboard of specials is the super pretty food, packed with attention to detail and flavours!
Is all the food made on site?
Fundamentally yes, we make our own bread, burger buns, sauces, chutneys, pesto’s, desserts, ice creams, sorbets but honestly there’s normally about 3 things on the menu at anytime that aren’t but that’s because we’ve found someone who does it better than us – but it’ll only be an element of the dish – ie Richard found this amazing lady who makes the best crumpets ever & there’s a great bakery for sourdough bread in Chatham but everything else on the dish is all his!
Are there local walks?
Yes – we are in an area of outstanding natural beauty, you simply must take in the natural beauty around you, we’ve got maps and wellies so there’s no excuses!
Can I hire the whole pub?
Yes – we offer exclusives dates throughout the year – give us a call to check what dates we can do.

Do you take big tables for birthdays and other celebrations?
Yes we can accommodate larger tables for parties to celebrate birthdays or anniversaries.
Do I have to book a table?
Whilst you don’t have to book a table to eat we would strongly encourage you to do so as we find it so sad when people leave with empty tummies!
Do you have open fires?
Yes during the ‘snugglier’ months we have up to 2 open fires for you to enjoy – make sure you ask when you book as they are always the first tables to be booked!

Are our bedrooms child friendly?
All our suites have a sofabed that can accommodate 2 younger children or a bigger one – they even have a larger TV than the grown ups in their own ‘bedroom’ area. Plus we have a kids menu – designed by our own child! We have colouring pages, games, puzzles and in the garden we have swings and a slide, little guests will be just as busy as the big ones!
