Much as described below, this is a really good ale house with a warm welcome and a great, convivial atmosphere. It's also convenient for Canterbury West Station so provides a useful break for a rail journey. The ale selection was a bit lacklustre on this occasion, but what was there was well kept and enjoyable - Doombar and Landlord, plus Old Rosie on draft. I'd be very happy to come back and include in a crawl.

Good Beer Guide 2019 Entry and easily the best of the beer from the four establishments visited on our mini break.
TT Landlord in tip top condition - and topped up from a little half glass after pulling. Nice touch!
Seemed very popular with diners.
Quirky interior - plenty of car related metallic adverts and little Michelin men balanced on the dado rails.
Nice experience.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Dolphin
Attractive alehouse-style pub / restaurant, with the main bar at the front and the dining area further back. Furnished and decorated in a mix of the traditional and modern styles, but the blend seems to work quite well. Three real ales - Doom Bar, Landlord and the local Hopdaemon Red (£4.10) - and a mulled cider from four of five handpumps. Overall, whilst I did have a slight query about the way my beer was served, the barman handled this appropriately, and I found the place to have a pleasant and convivial atmosphere on a Sunday lunchtime.
