Revisited as forgotten, it still is right at the top of our list for somewhere to eat and meet up. Gorgeous food from a very sensible menu. Something for everyone and anyone. This is real home cooking at its best, oh yes, Harvey's and a good selection of well presented beers. Friendly welcome to our booked table along with perfect service.

Stopped off here on spec for Sunday lunch. It was very busy and we hadn't booked but fortunately they were able to fit us in. We had the roast lamb and our friend the Sussex Smokie. It was all delicious and piping hot. Excellent service and a lovely open fire in the bar. Well worth a visit and obviously a popular

Absolutely lovely traditional pub to visit. Great welcome, cosy vibes and a roaring fire, what more could you want? Well, I had probably one of the best burgers I've had in my life! Can definitely recommend the venison burger and chips. The wife and I had a Stilton and mushroom starter which was sublime. The only issue was had was....no room for desert! We'll be back soon to remedy this for sure.

Lovely mid week meal out with the friends. Varied menu choices and quality

WOW! What an amazing FOH greeting, an absolute top notch menu, fantastic variety. All 3 of my courses were totally on point, superbly dished up & served, compliments to the chef, food was out of this world. 10 out of 10. I would also like to say a huge thank you to Claire & the rest of the staff. Highly, highly recommend.

We booked a last minute early evening meal with family members. Hadn’t been for several years (last visit was to the lovely garden but this was a winter’s night) and it was good to return. There was a warm welcome, great service and delicious food thank you. Mmmmmm.

Lovely staff but poor food. Linguine that was so overcooked it had almost turned to mush and was really very unpleasant and almost inedible. Carrot, coriander and orange soup that was definitely not! It was green and tasted of celery so presumably was actually vegetable soup. This was okay. Both were accompanied by white ciabatta type bread (garlic with the pasta) which was toasted and not very nice. The speed at which food was coming out made it clear nothing was freshly prepared and the microwave must have been working overtime.

The building is cosy and comfortable and the staff are welcoming and efficient, but the food. Oh dear! I hope the chef was having a day off before Christmas and it was not the normal standard. I had the liver and the other meal was the Sussex Smokie. The liver was a big lump of undercooked pig’s liver with lumpy mashed potatoes. It was not pleasant The Smokie consisted of 3 fingers of fish in a watery sauce. It was not pleasant. This used to be a favourite pub of mine, but I will wait before I try it again
