Saint Johns Yard Bar & Restaurant

Lovely!
Great beer garden, with really friendly staff. Burgers were tasty and reasonably priced for big portions, only issue is that they weren’t pink and juicy as stated on the menu, so a little disappointing in that respect.
But the duck burger and the spicy one were both tasty, nice skinny fries too. Fab sun trap!

At the moment this place appears back to its crazy high standards when it opened, look at this meal , so impressed

Thanks for a amazing meal

Plenty of good beers, ciders and other alcoholic drinks. Menu has a good variety to choose from, we all had different burgers, all were excellent. Staff friendly and attentive. Cosy relaxed seating area in the garden.

Leo from the Smith and Western recommended this fab spot as a great burger bar.. He was not wrong!
The burgers were spot on.. I had the special which had this lush beer cheese sauce and amazing pepperoni and the other half had a burger called Vintage Sally which she wouldn't share so I assume was good.. the fries were also amazing and well cooked. The meal was well presented with a supply of mayo and ketchup which I didn't need to ask for which was nice surprise.
The restaurant/bar is well presented! I think if you want to get a table around 7pm booking seems to be very important.
We would never of found this place if it wasn't for Leo so you probably owe him a drink!

I've been recommended this place a few times now, and managed to get a chance to go here as I met up with some friends local to the area.

Indoor and outdoor seating available, due to the weather we picked the garden. The garden is deceptively large, and caters largely to groups. The decor is lovely with lots of flowers and lights and gives it a really good vibe. Atmosphere was really good even for a weekday.

Service was really quick too, some of the drinks arrived before the order confirmation even came through.

I had the Vintage Sally burger which comes with bacon and chilli jam, and a serving of really nice chips. Also had a spicy chicken starter between us.

The spicy chicken starter catches you off guard as it's fairly hot to start with, but once you're used to it you'll keep going back for another.

The chips were just how I like them, crisp on the outside with a hint of salt, and fluffy on the inside. The burger was juicy and full of flavour as the chilli jam soaked into the bun. Definitely recommend having that one.

A nice pub with a modern angle just on the edge of Tunbridge Wells. Some of the best burgers in town and delicious sides. Great drinks selection and friendly staff. There's also a section you can book out for private functions, which is very nice for a casual family or work party.

One of the only downsides is there isn't a huge amount of seating inside, and not all of the outdoor seats have heating so it's not ideal in the winter.

It's such a shame... this used to be a great spot to pop in for a drink... now however, if you haven't booked in advance you have nowhere to sit or stand and made to feel unwelcome for wanting to be there and give them your money.

The food is very good, but please leave somewhere that can't be reserved for the few walk-ins that just want a pint!!

Oh, service with a smile wouldn't go a miss these days either!

Such a shame!

Really good burger and chips. Wasn't expecting much from the fries but they were really yummy and loads of them too. Burger very yummy. All table service with ordering on our phone. Very happy and would definitely come again.
