Canterbury in Kent is a great place to go to the pub - over 60 pubs and bars all crammed into a small area. This independent site has been reviewing every bar in town since 1997, and we're inviting you to add to the discussion too. We're updating right now and should have the pubs up to date over autumn 2009 - the reviews will be back on their own page in the main site rather than in this forum - use the link below. And feel free to ask questions or make suggestions!
