Came across this place as the Sat Nav took us to the Station Road West car park and this is the first place we passed. Greeted by friendly staff & given the option to eat in the rear garden. (Nicely shaded with Skysports on tv). Ordered our drinks then staff took our order. As shown in pics, we ordered 1/4 kilo of wings (comes in 1/4, 1/2 or 1 kilo) which tasted Southern fried, Vegan burger with Smug Veg loaded fries (soya burger with carrot & cougette, fries had smashed avocado, sliced chillies & a sweet sauce) & Streaking Pig buger (cheese, salt beef, bacon) with Messy Cow fries (Chilli, jalepenos & cheese). The Messy Cow fries do have a nice heat to them. The burgers were nice & juicy & the wings cooked perfectly. The wait for the food was around 10 mins (all other customers looked to be drinking only in the heat). No vegan option for dessert so only 2 of us has some, ice cream trio & a nice sticky toffee with custard. Would recommend if...

Awful service! My friend went to the bar and bought 2 drinks and 10mins later while we were sitting by the front window having a nice chat we noticed what looked like one of the Proclaimers waiting to talk to us - he mentioned there had been an error at the bar with our order, so i thought ok, how much do you owe us then? To our surprise he said that my friend owed the staff member 80p? I replied - sorry pal, your mistake not ours in a calm manner, he replied no need to be aggressive upon which i replied - you would know if it i was aggressive, he walked off. I always thought that a member of staff should only acknowledge a mistake on their part if they have short changed a customer and not the other way round? Hey ho what do i know? won't be drinking there again - £5.35 for a btl of Old...

Do not go here in the morning. We went on Tuesday morning looking for coffee and an early lunch. No coffee or any hot drinks. We should have left when we heard this.

I feel they specialise in drinks. Serving lunch is not their string

The service was incredibly slow. The serving staff seemed to be very inexperienced, we asked a lady if they could make Bellinis, she went to check and never reappeared, the guy forgot my side order We were also given the Bill seconds after we received our food. Makes me think they have zero confidence in their food The only redeeming thing was the burger. It was not bad, but definitely not worth the long wait.

There are so many great places in Canterbury. Rather visit the others...

Canterbury is the kind of place that’s primed for a pub crawl. And yet, locals and visitors alike tend to find a favourite and stick to it – like the Bishops Finger. The Bishops Finger is head and shoulders above the competition, one of the area’s most in-favour drinking holes thanks to a huge range of craft ales and great accompanying grub. In summer, the doors are flung open and punters spill on to the street. Staff are enthusiastic and eager to ensure if you have a great time. It’s small enough and busy enough to encourage table reservations.

It’s an ok pub , quite noisy when there is a match on. Food was fair. Fish and chips were ok but the pie was as if it was reheated as if it was forgotten from lunchtime. Sausages were a bit weird regarding taste. Also , not very kids friendly pub
