The Thomas Tallis, Canterbury

This bar-less micropub in an ancient building a couple of streets away from the cathedral is worth a visit just for being there: the beer is a bonus. My visit was towards the end of the evening, and having selected my half of Four Candles East Kent Bitter (from the three cask ales from that brewery - all the other beers were kegged) I found a seat and took advantage of the pub's wifi to keep abreast of the football scores on my mobile. The only two teams that could stop the Hatters being promoted both lost their matches, so I had a quiet celebration and found a special place in my memory for the Thomas Tallis.

Better than average micro pub by virtue of the fact its in a C15th building. No bar provides confusion to the unsuspecting - which we certainly were. Waiter service and the indication of what is on is on a chalk board that simply lists brewery, beer name and strength. No indication of style. Visit blogged at http://bit.ly/2NZ78v5
