Furlongs, Faversham

This is a newly opened micropub, about which there's little to add to ETA's review. Essentially it's small (as a micropub has to be) but perfectly formed. My companion and I had pints of Canterbury Ales Manderina Barbara, but they also had on three other ales, plus a draft cider, which can be seen in the uploaded photo. This is actually quite good by micropub standards. As I recall pints were in the region of £3.20 or so. The only real minus for me was the absence of any traditional furnishings. Indeed there were no furnishings at which drinkers could face each other; it's all side by side here. Nonetheless, this place is definitely worth a punt if you're in Faversham.

This former small high street fishmonger’s opened as a micro in December 2014. It consists of a single small room, decorated and furnished in untreated wood, Spartan wooden seating arrangements, with no luxuries apart from WiFi. It is dog-friendly. There is no Shepherd and Neame on offer, which makes it a rare gem in Faversham. There were 4 ales on handpumps, alongside a selection of Kentish wine. I had a pint of Canterbury Ales’s Merchant, a mild stout which was in absolutely perfect condition, a beautiful pint even to one who doesn’t normally drink stout. The barman was knowledgeable and friendly, but sadly I got cornered by CAMRA’s Duty Bore so had to drink more Merchant to transcend the experience. A truly excellent pub, which offers a CAMRA discount, to which I shall certainly return.
