Bishops Finger

Faversham brewery Shepherd Neame runs this rather splendid, sleek and varnished boozer on a quiet crescent near Smithfield Market. It once had a Smithfield 375 telephone number, hence the sign inside mixed in with brewery publicity and paraphernalia. The titular BF, Master Brew, Spitfire and Porter are kept company on tap by the usual SN options of Holsten Export and Oranjeboom. There is an informal bar menu downstairs and a larger a la carte offering in the upstairs room, which has splendid views of the market.
