The Playa, Sheerness

This pub is in a nice seafront location where a quick hop across the road and down a grass slope will gain access to the pebbled beach. There are four picnic tables at the front of the pub and also a nicely kept beer garden at the rear which has more picnic tables. The inside of the pub is in two halves with the bar area to the left and some seating on the right which was being used by diners during my lunchtime visit. This is a freehouse and there were two hand pumps on the bar which were drawing Flowers IPA and Master Brew alongside a standard draught selection. I had an enjoyable pint of Guinness that was served by a friendly young barmaid. It was busy with an older crowd during my Saturday afternoon visit and Formula 1 was on the large flat screen, although I didn’t spot any Sky Sports advertisements. I thought that it was very pleasant in here and would have no problem popping back in again when next in the area.
