Three Daws in Strood

Ah, the Three Daws – it's one of those pubs that just draws you in with its rich history from the 1400s, right there on the riverside in Gravesend. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the food is a real highlight; think tasty, locally sourced options that hit the spot without costing a fortune, like those mouthwatering chicken skewers or a hearty pie that folks rave about. Pair that with a solid lineup of real ales and wines, and you've got the makings of a proper good night out. The events are another winner – whether it's a quiz night on Tuesdays or catching a live band, there's always something on to liven things up. And let's not forget the outdoor seating; it's ideal for whiling away an afternoon with a drink in hand, taking in those lovely river views. On the downside, if you're planning to bring your dog along, you might run into issues since they only have a small spot inside for them, which could mean you're stuck outside if it's busy. Plus, the inside decor isn't anything flashy, so it might not wow you straight away, but once you're settled with a drink and some grub, it all comes together nicely. All in all, it's a welcoming spot that's earned its high marks for good reason, and I'd say it's well worth popping in for a relaxed evening – just keep those little niggles in mind for the full picture.
