I have wanted to come to this pub since moving to Strood back in November. I was not let down. The pub is absolutely stunning. My favourite thing is to go in to a new pub and this pub is beautiful inside and out. I explained to the staff that I couldn’t have gluten and they were so accommodating. To eat out is really difficult and causes me a lot of anxiety and worry. All my worries were put to rest when the manager (I think) came and sat with me. He went through the menu. He offered a lot of recommendations and said he will make it work to suit my requirements. He took a lot of care and time to make sure I felt settled and happy when ordering. The food was incredible as well! I massively appreciated everything they did and it went above and beyond what I have experienced before. Will definitely be returning very soon! 1000/10!

Didn't eat so can't comment on food. It was really busy and the service was slow due to this. Wine had run out as well but again this can be put down to the level of customers. Band was playing which was a nice addition.

I have recently had my wife’s surprise 50th birthday party at the 3 crutches and Kyle and his team really pulled out the stops to make the event go really smoothly.
I highly recommend this venue for your special events including weddings , Birthdays and those sadder occasions like funeral wakes.
The food was excellent as was the welcome drinks , the staff made everyone very welcome and the bar area and dinning area was transformed into a dance area.

Good atmosphere,
Food was okay….
Had steak sandwich and was over done, poor example.
And the chips that came on another plate were so over done rock hard unlike the extras we added so I’m assuming I got some re-heated ones first.
Would have like to eat outside!
Drinks great and great service and staff
Will come back.
