Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Old Gate Inn
Historic Vintage Inn at the site of the former Dover Road toll-gate, created from an agglomeration of buildings of different ages and styles and still acting as a hotel as well as a pub / restaurant. Usual semi-traditional furniture and decor in the various seating / dining areas. Disappointingly, just Doom Bar (£3.80) available from the four handpumps.

Another visit to Canterbury Nov.2012.No rooms available,was dissapointed.Called in for a Lunchtime meal.Menu card changed,alot of Fish.No more Steak & Ale Pie,etc.Very dissapointed and noticed all wine glasses on all tables dirty (most probably Dish washer used).Also used tables were still not cleaned.Not again sorry to say.Surprised to see this lovely Pub still belongs to vintage inns.

Stayed here twice.Very cosy.Nice double bedroom.Old Coaching Inn with character & open fireplace.Very good menu card. Living in Germany since 13 years so buffet breakfast needs to be English breakfast which needs early morning kitchen staff unfortunately.
