Truely disgusted at the Pippins poor customer service, hubby's birthday yesterday and he had a message to his iPhone saying get a free drink we went to claim it but because we couldn't print off they wouldn't redeem. Really in this day and age, if they need a paper copy send it through the pos,t not everyone has a printer.. Needless to say we went elsewhere ..

I've recently had 2 evenings at this pub and found the staff and "boss" to be most warming and nice. Even to the point of letting me raid the jukebox, with my tunes, no questions asked just a giggle. top pub xx

Excellent service ,makes you feel you are wanted and valued. Food well cooked ,and very tasty. Pleasant surourndings and cosy. Very busy on Saturdays...best to book in advance.

Fabulous! Lovely fish .

Visited today for first time. Service was slow, roast was under cooked and lukewarm, nearby table had same problem.. Very loud music during meal.

My husband went to Papas for the fist time tonight for a take away of 2 skate wings and chips. After unwrapping the meal and seeing what it looked like he took he straight back and complained. After a heated conversation he was given his money back. It looked disgusting. Needless to say we wont be going back again.

My friend and I recently visited your Inn for lunch. The food was excellent (ploughman's) and the staff very friendly - made us feel very welcome. We will certainly be visiting again.

My husband and I, with our witnesses, had a wonderful post secret wedding lunch at the Mulberry Tree. All was perfect, including the weather. (Don't know how you managed to arrange that!) You made our special day even more special. Thank you so very much.

Very unclean in restaurant with odd and dirty cutlery in pots on tables and food scraps on floor, dirty windows, sticky tables and one of waitresses wiped her nose on tea towel used for serving food.Staff however polite and food ok.

opening hours and do we need to book in advance

Lovely 'pub-grub'. Convenient location with easy parking- although usually quite busy. Good atmosphere and reasonably priced food, excellent quality and friendly service... couldn't ask much more!

Disgusting behaviour from this pub - my 17 year old daughter received threatening behaviour from one of their stall for querying late table on mother's day at 3.00 pm - I am still trying to ring them to complain at 6.40pm and they are refusing to answer their phone even though I have been ringing them since 3.30pm.

Four of us ate at this restaurant last Saturday and every course was tasteless and or badly prepared. I would guess that the Scallops and the plaice were frozen rather than fresh. Service was poor for a restaurant charging nearly £50 a head for three courses. White wine was chilled to such a low temp we had to wait for it to warm before drinking and the look on the owner face when I asked for the red to be decanted was a dream although she did say of course Sir through almost gritted teeth. Considering a lot of Michelin star restaurants charge just £10 more I can not understand how an establishment like this is still in business. I serve better food than this in my own home on a daily basis

Great fun family restaurant at amazing value. The genuinely friendly happy staff really made our night something to remember! Gem of a restaurant.

Great value for money highly recommend its such a fun family friendly restaurant with genuinely happy and welcoming staff.

My family and I took my Mum to The Pippin for her birthday and we had a fabulous time. The staff were really friendly and made us feel so welcome. We were allowed to decorate the table and surrounding area with confetti and balloons before my Mum arrived and our Mum's meal was even given to us for free because of it being her birthday. We felt relaxed, unrushed and the food was gorgeous. It's my favourite venue in Kent.

the grub was blooming lovely and very good value for money! The staff were friendly and i would definitely go back.

I have eaten at the Mulberry Tree on several occasions and I have never been disappointed. The set menu offer during the week is excellent value for money and the standard menu always has a great selection of classic and more novel dishes. Very friendly and attentive staff, good wine list and relaxed atmosphere.
