Cons:

• "However the mattress was so soft it wasn't fit for two people and we are t particularly big - but that feeling you are rolling constantly toward your partner is frustrating."

Food & Drink

Pros:

• "The pork was tremendous!! Thick pork loin chop with a gammon croquettes."
• "The fish and chips are delicious, it has an appropriate size and of course I would recommend it."
• "Restaurant serves the standard selection of food. Steaks are to die for, so is the pie oh and the pizzas."
• "Good range of drinks."
• "The chef cooked the BEST short rib."
• "The food in this pub was really good. We ordered roasts (pork belly and pie roast) and both were cooked really well."

Cons:

• "Main negative is that it was overall quite pricey for fairly standard pub food, especially the kids meal at £8 with no drink or dessert included."
• "Just had the worst roast dinner. The potatoes were stale and inedible as were the puddings and veg."
• "However the lamb in my daughter and Is dish was chewy and completely unbeatable."
• "Overpriced, average food. 15 quid for a basic burger."
• "However the food is a total and utter rip off. £16 for a pulled pork burger and chips."
• "The food has gone up in price quite considerably and hasn't really gone up in quality to match."
• "The Sunday roasts are (in my opinion) seriously overpriced."

• "The Station Hotel provides a warm welcome to Hither Green and is a focal point for the local community."

Cons:

• "Used to be great, now caters almost exclusively to young families who feel it’s ok to let their kids run untended around the bar."
• "But, its usually filled with screaming children and loud families so I avoid it these days."
• "Needless to say, we won't be recommending and we won't be back! Over £100 for inedible food that made us sick?? No thanks!"
• "They had an order to table Q R code system which took 25 minutes to navigate and which was unnecessarily stressful."
• "Poorly maintained toilets."
• "Nice pub, nice decor. The service is appalling."
• "THIS PUB ALSO NO LONGER TAKES CASH PAYMENTS, so don't go there if you prefer to spend cash."
