"The Old Jail in Biggin Hill is a truly charming traditional English pub that offers delicious food and a great variety of drinks. It features both indoor and outdoor seating, with a spacious garden that includes some play equipment for children. There is also a reasonably sized parking area; however, some mobile networks may experience poor reception, so you might need to walk down the road to find a signal. On chilly nights, the bar is particularly inviting with its warm open fire. The pub's name is likely derived from its history of occasionally housing prisoners during their journey from London to Maidstone, which used to take two days by horse and carriage."

This pub is incredibly disrespectful to its neighbors with the loud music it plays during the summer. Until this issue is addressed, I can't see it in any other light.

Fantastic “Inn” to visit. The food is exceptional especially the Steak. Lovely atmosphere. So many beautiful plates, pictures from the War years. It’s a must and cannot wait to go back.

I absolutely love this pub! It used to be my local hangout many years ago, so it was wonderful to come back and enjoy a pint here after such a long time. Not much has changed, which is a nice touch. I attended a quiz night, and it was great fun—plus, the staff were lovely. I definitely recommend it! View menu

We had an amazing Christmas lunch for our group of 18 this past Christmas, and I must thank Michael and the staff for making it so special. The food was outstanding, and the staff were attentive, welcoming us with Buck's Fizz upon arrival. The venue was warm and cozy, filled with festive decorations. Thank you for a lovely experience! Highly recommended—10/10!

I visited this pub again in September 2022, and the food was excellent. Unfortunately, on this visit, it was just mediocre. The halloumi burger and fries were lukewarm and not nearly as enjoyable as before. The Oreo cheesecake was served in a glass instead of as a slice, which threw off the proportions. I had hoped this place would become our go-to spot for special occasions, but now I'm not so certain.

"this is a great place Thai restaurant that we unfortunately do not visit as much as we want. it has been an established part of my hometown hornchurch and serves fantastic Thai cuisine for many years. I am now glad to say that on Saturday we had a opportunity to visit and again eating was full of all the aromes they expect from this style of food. on Saturday we have walked on our fifteen minute walk to the heart of the city where they find the restaurant. we entered and received the usual friendly reception before we took our places. While we looked at the menu, we ordered a beautiful bottle of maison bergon 2020 a delightful French sauvignon blanc, full of citrus fruits, apple and lemongras aromas. unusual for us we decided to choose a set menu. we chose the Bangkok menu with an additional Thai salad. this started with the prawn crackers and sweet chili diving sauce. the starter was a plate consisting of chickensatai, spring rolls, huh on toast, chicken strips prawn tempura, which was all fresh, hot and full of fabulous thai aromen. we followed this with our additional plate of the yum nuar a fabulous spicy salate of cut grilled sirloin, swirl, early swirl, coriander, lemon juice, fish sauce chili flock, which I would definitely recommend. we now went to the main courses that would be with ingwer in black bohnensoße, chicken green curry, sweet with egg noodles. thai jasmin reis. the aromen and choir again complicated themselves perfectly and made every dish absolutely delicious. to finish they can have either tee, coffee or a few pots vanilla ice cream. this brought our charming Thai lunch to the end, and we hope to do again in the near future. I would highly recommend a visit here as eating is fantastic and there is always a good friendly service. also it is a long established part of our community and should be supported. many thanks for our fabulous lunch and look forward to seeing them all again soon."
