The only remaining pub in the town centre since the conversion of the Victoria at the other end of the High Street to a pizza restaurant, the Woolpack is a brick and tile building with a large porch over the main entrance. From that entrance there is a single bar with a lounge to the left and an open area with a glass-fronted log burner to the right. To the rear there is a restaurant adjacent to a terraced open air dining area under a permanent canopy. Excellent home-made food is available from noon every day, featuring daily specials plus roasts on Sunday, and breakfast is served on some days. Children are allowed in the pub, but when it is busy on Friday and Saturday evenings this will only be when eating as a family away from the bar. There are monthly afternoon jazz sessions and sometimes live bands or open mic nights. Music of some sort will be present either weekly or fortnightly, more frequently in the summer than the winter. Terrestrially televised sporting events are occasionally shown on TV. There are two disabled parking space as you enter the car park and three car charging points in the main part of the car park at the back. There will be one or two guest beers from either Shepherd Neame or a Surrey brewery such as Hogs Back, Pilgrim or Surrey Hills. Shepherd Neame Bishops Finger will usually be one of the guests in the winter. An annual beer festival is usually held over the August bank holiday. It was named Shepherd Neame Pub of the Year in 2011.
