Pub in Sevenoaks

“My Local pub, good to go there. Always made to feel welcome. The darts board and pool table are enjoyable!”

“Very nice pub with good atmosphere and great good value food. Brilliant barn at the back for performances. Also lots of parking and beer garden at the back”

“Rising Sun - Google For a long time this hidden gem was a secret for those on the know. It is difficult to get to and unfindable on TA. It used to be busy when Peter ran it but since he passed away his wife, Michelle, and daughter, Rachel, manage it as a quaint old skool country pub with real ales and ice cream with packaged bar snacks available too. Since Michelle's cohort was affected by the rise in retirement age she is due for her pension in 2026. Until then she has to make ends meet and is finding it hard in this economic climate with fewer patrons. This pub is well worth making the effort to visit. Just come for the atmosphere inside, garden outside and the occasional folk gigs. It keeps on disappearing on TA despite my reviewing it a few times before! It also gets confused with other (much more chic, expensive and flashy) pubs locally and I have reported the misplaced photos. Just go with your loved ones or friends. You will not be disappointed. Cycle or drive there. The boxed Westerham Ales are good though so mind the units. Look out for the rare chicken and cow breeds too!”

“Had a fantastic meal here with my partner after some friends recommended the restaurant. First time i have tried polish food and is was great! Excellent wine menu as well. We'll be back again soon.”

“Yes! Very kind and responsive folk and a hearty fish pie. Extra marks for not looking askance at our cycling attire:)”

“Had a Sunday lunch here a couple of weeks back. I had to have the all meats Sunday roast despite it being a hit summers day! It was fantastic. Meats were plenty full as were the roast potatoes which were cooked perfectly. Excellent value for money to. Drinks reasonably priced and a great selection. Definitely worth a visit.”

“Best fish and chips I’ve had. Light, thin and crispy batter all around, a beautiful large fillet of Haddock. I also liked that it wasn’t seasoned with salt allowing customers to season as they please with salt and pepper shakers provided.”

“Great food and great service! Would definitely come back!”

“Always a pleasure to frequent this gem! Hannah the bar manager always makes an effort to make me feel welcome and is a delight to talk to! The other bar staff are just as lovely and attentive. The food is good and atmosphere usually lively. Been a regular here for many years now and this new chapter for the pub is certainly its best yet!”

“A lovely local pub in the charming village of Shoreham. The service was great and I had a tasty half pint of Bigfoot from the local Stay Wild brewery. I’m not usually a fan of pale ale but this subtle and aromatic.”

“Spent 3 nights for boyfriends birthday. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The rooms are really nice, spacious, modern and clean. The restaurant is a little bit small but the food is great. The only downside is that the restaurant is abit under staffed, the restaurant is always quite busy at dinner time and we waited 30 minutes before the waiter came to take our drinks and food order. But I would still recommend this hotel.”

“Absolutely amazing! The place is beautiful and staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. I love that you get a lot of food as well for the price. Our waitress Sue was absolutely brilliant. Nothing was too much for her and she kept checking on us to see if we were OK. She's definitely an asset to the company Thank you Sue, we'll definitely be back.”

“Visited solo mid-week for business. A warm welcome from friendly hosts and a nice quiet stay. The room was very comfortable and clean, breakfast the following morning was delicious and I would return again if working in the area.”

“We came as a family of 5 plus a medium dog, all different generations, for a pre Christmas meal and it was exceptional. I have worked in hospitality for a decade and I can't understand why this doesn't have a higher review score. The food was the best I've had in a pub in years, the service was so personal and attentive without being imposing. We had a few dietary requirements that were accommodated with no bother at all. The atmosphere was lovely and overall we are just so thrilled to have such a wonderful pub in the village. The new management have really created such a cosy, welcoming vibe with really high standards of food and service. Thank you - highly recommend.”
