The Napier, Sheerness

A Victorian former sea front hotel dating from around 1858, currently a freehouse. As you enter the foyer there are two doors with the words 'Restaurant' and 'Public Bar', though the latter has tables laid for diners, while the former is a drinking bar; apparently this does change every so often depending on what dinner bookings they have. There is also a small garden, largely dominated by the two pub dogs, a GSD and a Rottweiler, though we were told they sometimes have a hot tub in there. The Public Bar also has tv screens and a feature fireplace. There was only one ale on, London Pride, which was well past its best and not that enjoyable. A decent enough local, and maybe worth visiting for one of their special events or for lunch, but I wouldn't include on a crawl.
