Claimed to be the oldest pub in Rye, this wonderful 15th century building, extended about 200 years later, is located amongst the cobbled streets of Rye. It has a dark wood interior and a bare wooden boarded floor and a small garden at the front. There are two handpumps on the bar counter and a limited food menu. Cask beers include house beers, one or other of Old Bell Bitter or Old Bell Pale have been on offer at different times, both from Laine Brewery. In addition the pub often does not adhere to its published opening hours.
