Never a bad meal there..... Outside areas in the summer are second to none, great atmosphere and great location

·

One of the best burgers we had in Canterbury. The place has a cozy and traditional vibe! Can't wait to go back.

·

A finer experience than you'd expect from a place so out of the way. While we didn't get to try the food, the busyness spoke well.

Very unimpressed. Made a food booking through the website for 8:30pm and when we arrived they had decided to stop doing food because it was quiet, leaving us having to find somewhere else at the last minute. No call and no message sent. Customer experience isn't at the centre of this pub's motivation.

I had heard on the grapevine that The Old Coach & Horses Sunday roast was the stuff of legend, so I finally got myself booked in for a lazy Sunday packed with meat, gravy and beer. What more could you possibly want?Settling in quickly in the quaint upstairs interior, we ordered swiftly, but it wasn’t an easy choice.Personally, I went for the Chicken, which if I’m being honest was a bit off piste for me as an avid red meat eater. But you know what? I fancied it, and if it was going to be anything like The Old Coach & Horses outrageously tasty food on their menu I knew I was going to be in for a ride.And let me tell you, it lived up to expectations. Perfectly tender and full of flavour this roast was juicy and as far away from your mums dry roast chicken.

Simply wow! Wanted to book this place for Sunday lunch but they were understandably fully booked, so we couldn’t believe our luck when they had tables available on Saturday evening after we’d walked around Canterbury for an hour struggling to find somewhere good for dinner!The restaurant is really lovely. They have a great indoor area, and 3 different outdoor areas which are amazing! The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and we even made a friend, Charlie, the pub dog, who hung out with us during our meal! We’re big dog lovers, though the waiters were really diligent in asking everyone if they were okay with him which I thought was really nice.All in all an fantastic meal, highly recommend!

Great pub with a great Sunday roast. Staff was friendly and professional. The pub is dog friendly and it shows, half of the customers in the garden area had a dog and the staff new how to deal with dogs. Our puppy enjoyed their garden areas as well. Would definitely go again.

·

Really good garden, plenty of space with some covered for bad weather but plenty in the sun. Staff were fantastic, looked after us really well, didn't wait to get food ordered or more rounds, all were in good spirits which added to the great atmosphere. Food was tasty, starters were lovely but if you are ordering the roast you'll need a big stomach the main is massive! Halloumi fries are a must

·

The starters here were superb, and incredibly generous - check the baked camembert cheese! The roast was also cooked to perfection, we had lamb and butternut squash. The dishes had a nice level of green leaves in it (something I tend to miss in most pub roasts)

Current owner has just taken out a lease on this place 7 weeks so he is still trying out new things. Menu is limited but the quality is very good. Drink selection especially beers is limited but if there is the demand owner will expand. Car parking is limited so you end up parking on road outside. Service is prompt and you won't get clobbered with a service charge aka tax.
