Alisdair Buchanan left this review about Five Pointed Star
Having been for a walk in the rain we thought we would pop into a traditional pub in West Malling for a drink and some food. The five pointed star popped to mind. We were expecting just good basic pub food.... What we got.... I ordered a sausage and bacon baguette, which arrived as a sausage baguette, when I pointed this out to the kitchen staff/cook/waiter he said ok and duly disappeared - only to return with the same thing saying "I don't know what you want me to do mate, it is written here as a sausage baguette!" I pointed out that I had ordered a sausage and bacon baguette and had been charged £1 extra. Off he went, then the bar lady came and said "Sorry darlin, I fought you ordered a jumbo! Gonna ave to charge ya an extra 80p!" So with the idea of not turning this into an argument about poor service I paid. The baguette turned up with barely one piece of bacon in it, the sausage was cheap and nasty, the bacon poor quality also, my girlfriend had a BLT which she said was greasy. The final straw was the hair in our food - Guess what at this point we left!! - DON'T DO IT - there are loads of places in West Malling that have good food and great staff this is not one of them!

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Five Pointed Star
A traditional Greene King town pub - fairly unpretentious, with a reasonably-priced bar menu. Four real ales on - Ruddles, Abbot, Old Speckled Hen and a respectable pint of IPA (and its not often you'll hear me say that) which went very well with my ham, egg and chips. No sign of the problem customers mentioned by some reviewers below.
