Went in the other night I had words with the landlord who is a rude man.
As I was leaving I asked him why the toilets were covered in urine his answer was he hasn’t been there he has been upstairs.
He thinks that toilets don’t need to be inspected or cleaned through the day.
He simply told me that if I don’t like it don’t go back.
Put a complaint into Shepheard Neame who don’t care about the GRDP rules and gave him my email address.
HOW UNPROFESSIONAL.
And to make it worse I then got an email from the landlord telling me that the floor wasn’t covered in urine it was damp.
Very strange that the sink is at the other end of the toilet.
No ales on sale for weeks apparently.
I drank Hurlamens I have had bad stomach since.
I’m not going to be going back until the pub is sorted out.

I grew up in Rainham and the Mackland was a favourite of my Dad (Gerry Murphy) and, when I was older, me too. There was an owl in a cage on the bar years ago. The owners (Jan and her hubby) were always lovely. Beer was always good. Loos were terrible which, of course means great pub. One of very few local pubs left in the world worth saving. If you live near station road, hi and have a pint when they open

Popped in whilst the football was on Liverpool Vs Real Madrid !!
ordered a pint of Masterbrew…...truly awful!
could not understand how it was so bad with so many fans were in there drinking.

My family which consited of my mum, partner and our two small children popped into the Mackland arms as we had a 45 minute wait for a train just up the road in Rainham. Inside the pub it's quite cosy, with regular looking customers sitting on their stools, but this was quite a different experience than a normal pub like this. The friendly barman was very pleasant and welcoming, and even gave my 4 year old a pound coin for sweets. Fellow customers were also just as friendly asking about our plans for the day and talking to our children about an upcoming exciting Christmas period!
I'd visited the pub before and thought it was good, but the latter experience has really pleased me and earned a 5 star review due to the nice atmosphere and warm welcome!

The macklands is a great pub, and the prices are more than reasonable. Our shepherds pie was ten minutes late, but the manager was more than apologetic
