Shepherd Neame Brewery Tour, Dinner and Gift
Although we had done the tour a few years ago we had forgotten a few things and there was some new information as they are now brewing a wider range of products. The meal was Beef cheek which was new one on us but it was a good size portion, well cooked and served. The staff on duty could not have been nicer and more helpful. The gift was a surprise as we were allowed to choose our own selection of beers to take home. Good night all round

Lovely evening
Great evening, well experienced guides and lovely food. Two things we would have liked to have seen would be an up to date book on the history of the brewery to date, including photos of the equipment old and new. Maybe postcards of old pub signs and pin badges. Martyn with a y was superb. Thank you

Brewery Tour
A very good evening. The main course was excellent. The dessert was nice but a little dry for me although the plate was left clean. All friendly on the tour and enjoyed by all.
