Will Larter left this review about The Thomas Tallis
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.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Thomas Tallis Alehouse
Compact two-room alehouse, with surprisingly light decor but (still appropriate) furniture and decor. No counter, so just ask for your chosen beverage from the chalk board and it gets brought direct from the cellar. Westerham God's Wallop (£3.60) and Sail from the Ashford-based G2 Brewing were the cask beers that day, supplemented by 12 craft keg offerings. What really stood out from my first visit here on a winter's lunchtime was the friendly welcome as warm as the glow from the log fire in the side room.
