Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Punch & Judy
Locally famous as the previous home of 'coffin man' (the former landlord who staged a publicity stunt against the pub owners, Enterprise). The place was then partially refurbished, and the whole atmosphere improved. Compact, 'L'-shaped layout with a range of seating in four small areas on three levels, with the rear decking garden back down a couple of steps. Various events advertised. Disappointingly, just Harvey's (£5.65 with a packet of peanuts) available from the handpumps were working on this visit.

Steve C left this review about The Punch & Judy
The Punch and Judy is at three levels with the main bar area and seating being at street level. There is then a step up to a rear serving area, a couple of high tables and a dartboard. Another step up then leads to the rear of the pub that feels like a dining area with condiments on every table. My visit was late on a recent Friday evening when the kitchen was shut so I did not see any menus. I spotted a plasma screen that was off and I didn’t see any live sport advertised, but I did note that there is a quiz every Wednesday. Out the back is a decked area with a picnic table and some café style seating.
The bar is stocked with a standard draught range and the four hand pumps were drawing Harveys’ Best (x2), Marston’s Help for Heroes and Tonbridge Brewery’s Rustic. I found the service to be very friendly and would have no problem returning here.
