Restaurants in Haywards Heath

Miller & Carter Haywards Heath

Amazing food, service and great value for money!! Brads service was outstanding! Will defiantly return and recommend to others! The best place in town in my opinion!

Elite Bar Kitchen

Very nice food, I had a combination of lamb shish and kofta. Both meats were very nice, the shish was especially well flavoured. I really enjoyed the side salad too! And homemade Ayran. All very good, thank you. I will return!

Red Lion Handcross

Have been here for drinks over recent months but not eaten here for a long time. I had the cheeseburger and it was delicious, the cheese was amazing. A bit of garnish would have been nice. My friend had the chicken burger and said she really enjoyed it.
The only reason I've given a 4 for atmosphere was we went on a Saturday lunchtime and the table for 2 we were seated at was great for us but the lady at the table already seated made a comment of 'why have they put them next to us', which left a bit of an atmosphere but we ignored her!
Definitely visit and eat here again, and will be back for evenings drinks with my friend.
Just remember to enter your car registration so you don't get charged for parking!

Sam's Fish Bar Restaurant

Excellent food, and great service. Staff so friendly and helpful. We even came in very late and near closing time and Sef and Ali still cooked us our lovely food that all tasted gorgeous. Thank you and we'll be back again soon

The Red Lion

Came here on the off chance when coffee shop round the corner closed early. Friendly and welcoming, great deserts, good coffee. Lots of space so relaxing even when busy. Would definitely come back.

The Bolney Stage

This pub is a gem and well worth a visit (many visits in fact). Firstly, the staff are excellent and we had the pleasure of being served by Posh Bob who made our lunch an even better experience… he’s a true asset to the team here. The Sunday roast was great and a good portion too, well worth the money. There’s plenty of outdoor seating and also indoor too, but would recommend booking when possible as this place gets busy. Will most definitely be back again soon!

Peckish Cafe

Found this place whilst on a trip last month. The welcome, the speed of service and the excellent breakfast comfortably exceeded my expectations. Would definitely come here again if I happen to be in the area.

We had a superb evening! The food was fantastic and the service second to none. The refurb is outstanding, absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to go back next month for my birthday.

Mr chippy

Liam and the team turn out the best fresh fish and chips from their takeaway. Always excellent service. They know all their regular customers and their orders. So friendly and efficient.

Bolney Wine Estate

We have just had the most amazing wine tasting tour at Bolney Wine Estate. The wines were fabulous and our tour guide very knowledgeable and so enthusiastic. The food pairings were done with local cheeses utterly delicious and the meze sharing platters were super. The whole afternoon could not be faulted in any way. Thankyou.

Agra classic indian cuisine

Amazing food at Agra Indian Takeaway! The flavors are incredible—truly a must-try spot. The service is top-notch too. Bari, the receptionist, was incredibly helpful, and kind making the experience even better. He's also very good looking, big bonus ;) Highly recommend this place!

Harvester Beech Hurst Haywards Heath

Had a lovely meal with fantastic service by a lovely gentleman called Luke, very friendly and extremely professional only to be told at the end of the evening that he's new to the team...very impressed..food was delicious as always, never disappoints, highly recommend.

La Campana (Spanish Tapas Bar)

A little gem in Haywards Heath. Highly recommend. Great service not only do they do a wide fire of Tapas but they also do à la carte menu and the best steak I’ve ever had.

The Talbot

They accepted a last minute booking albeit they were fully booked and it was the old crocs race. We were asked politely if we could please have the table back by 4pm which was no issue at 1.30. We were shows our table immediately and orders taken. The Pork Belly was fantastic, the vegetables the right texture and lots of variety. It’s rare that as a fussy eater I finish my main course. The waiting staff were polite and nothing was too much trouble, even when we asked for some extra potatoes and gravy for my husband to take home with his left overs. A perfect Sunday lunch, thank you Talbot

Burrell Arms

The Burrell Arms never disappoints! Always consistent, friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are attentive without being intrusive, and it’s clear they really care about making guests feel at home. Great place to relax with a drink or enjoy a meal – we’ll keep coming back.

The China Brasserie

Took my girlfriend here for our one year anniversary. Great food and the atmosphere was great. Customer service was perfect and the lady Charlotte was even kind enough to give us some desert for our anniversary. Would definitely recommend.

The Farmers

Gathered for family celebrations. Group of 10. Varied meal choices.
Possibly one disappointment was with the £45 Farmers BBQ blow out. Some of meat was cold, dry and quite fatty. Frys with skins on tasted lovely but were tepid, to the point of being cold.

Spice Village

Always my go to Indian! Always eaten in, not had a take away.I went here for my birthday meal last night and it was a table of 8, the service was amazing, all food came at the same time - of course tasted amazing as always!They were happy to bring out a birthday cake, gave us a free spirit of choice at the end.Would recommend this place to anyone who loves an authentic curry. (Chicken Bhuna is incredible)Thank you to all the staff as Spice Village for making my birthday even better last night.

180 Degrees Bar & Kitchen

The perfect venue for Brunch on a lovely sunny Sunday, we were lucky enough to be able to sit outside overlooking the beautiful South Downs
Great service and a good selection of dishes on offer for vegetarian and meat eaters
I had Eggs Royal which were cooked perfectly
Although it was very busy it didn't affect the service and we didn't wait very long for the food
will definitely be returning

Tamasha Lindfield

This was an experience the setting on the lake in the village of Lindfield was lovely but you step inside and the decor is very strange leather booths very nice marble floors low ceiling fish tank in the wall not what you expect at all the food was amazing and great service i think for atmosphere i would have prefered a more oldie worldie interior like the village

Kashmir Balti

Absolutely amazing ? as an Indian food lover l can highly recommend, surpassed all other restaurants in the area for quality and value. Will most definitely use again

WOLFOX BROADWAY

Gorgeous Cafe, friendly staff and delicious brunches, catering also for vegan and gluten free diets! Ive had the vegan breakfast gluten free twice now!

Coffee is also v good

Pancakes look fantastic from what i have seen and there is always a lovely selection of cakes and treats on display!

Canton Kitchen Hayward’s Heath

We ordered here a few days ago and loved it.Food- The food was brilliant, all of it tasted really good. Perfect place to get ChineseService- The staff are all friendly, we got it to order and the delivery was around 30 mins which is really fast. I would prefer to wait and get something tasty than a rushed item that tastes bad. But this place did both.My other half and I forgot to order a few things so we also went for a collection. The staff were really nice and very efficient. They got the extra items done in 5-10 mins which was nice.We will order from here again. The place also has a nice 5 Star Food Hygiene rating which is great to see.

Nizam Indian Restaurant

We just had a wonderful family Sunday lunch at Nizam. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly, the set menu with plenty of choices on it was very good value. The food, as always, was delicious and authentically Indian. Also it is a real bonus to be able to take your own wine as this keeps the cost down. All in all a great experience. We will be back.

Balti House

We went sunday lunch time for the off menu, eat as much as you'd like buffet. (we live approx 20miles away and were out for the day) this was an impromptu visit. Wow the food was the best I've tasted in an Indian restaurant for a very long time. I've an oil, butter and ghee intolerance and my meal was cooked to perfection. Hubby had 3 very large crisp bahgees, I had chicken tikka both served with salad, we then had chicken shashlik, a prawn madras, garlic rice, orkra and a light and fluffy garlic nan for our mains. M0y shashlik was fresh and cooked to perfection, hubbys madras was the best hes eaten for years ( he has at least a curry a week). Everything was perfection in our eyes.
Negatives were very few and quite petty, youre charged extra for pompadoms and chutneys ( we should have read the menu, our fault). Also theres a 10% service charge added to the bill, but the service was impeccable so we would of actually left more.
It was £25.90 plus £3 for hubbys prawns extra £6.60 for pompadoms and chutney.
We will defo be back, perhaps in the evening.
If you are in the area do your self a favour pop into this resturant you will not be disappointed.

The Snowdrop Inn

Cosy pub but with a higher quality restaurant feel. Not many vegan options for main dishes and vegan burger was fine but average. Vegan starter wasn’t available. Child friendly and really lovely staff.

Pizza Express

We went for an early dinner today, there was 4 of us with two kids. We called ahead and our table was ready with the high chairs by the time we got over. We got lucky the place was a bit quiet and we beat the dinner rush.
Pizza was good
We got a side of Mac and cheese for the kids, good flavour for the kids, the adults
Found it a bit bland
Overall service was great

Zizzi - Haywards Heath

We were celebrating Mother’s Day and a 75th birthday. Angus made it a very special occasion! ?

Dietary restrictions: Very helpful with allergies

Kid-friendliness: Great colouring and very accommodating

The Witch Inn

I attended this establishment with some colleagues today, the venue was to say the least impressive. We ordered muscles, and a fish of the day this was exquisite and favoured by others. The wine selection was very satisfactory, Hillary was particularly impressed with the red. All together an impressive pub in the heart of Lindfield . May I add the staff were very attentive and the landlord was a pleasure to meet.

The Green Man

I ate here with my family for an impromptu, late lunch. My teenagers chose adult burgers, which the loved and looked delicious. The server quickly dealt with the error in one of our meals. Service throughout was excellent, friendly yet professional. Spot on! I’d definitely recommend this pub for food quality, choice and service.

The Bent Arms

I popped by with less than 30 mins left on my break.

The manager was ever so kind and gave her staff permission for my food to be taken out and the service was nothing short of amazing.

I ordered the “Beef Medallion” which comes with chips, salad and peppercorn and it was very delicious.

Deffo looking forward to going back and try other items on the menu.

The Half Moon

What a bunch of absolute legends the owner and the people of this little village are, we were doing a 180km bike ride from Toddington to Brighton and on our last 21 miles left we had a stop and these guys pulled through with drinks and food to keep us going, I would highly recommend, lekker man.

The Cowdray Arms

What a fabulous evening we had at Cowdray Arms. The chicken wings are some of the best I have ever had and the coleslaw with them was amazing. I had the beef wellington that was fabulous and such a generous portion. My pops had the calves liver special that was out of this world.
Can’t recommend this place enough.
Brilliant work from the staff and the chef.

The Stand Up Inn - Indigo Pub Company

If you are nearby this is a great place to try. Thai food was excellent, but it remains a proper pub serving nice local ales and all the other fizzy pops that lager drinkers need.

The Half Moon Inn Balcombe

The Half Moon in Balcombe is a charming pub in a lovely village.
It’s the only pub in Balcombe, and it really feels like the heart of the community. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the people there are incredibly friendly. I had the fish and chips, and it was delicious. The pub itself is gorgeous, with a traditional feel and a relaxing outdoor space. Looking forward to going back again soon!

The White Harte

This lovely little pub is a real gem. It's got everything you could want from a village pub: Friendly, good drinks, lovely Thai food, games room, outside space and a little garden. Highly recommend a visit.

Flinders Coffee

The re-fit has done wonders for this place. Before it felt far too cramped. Now the dining area feels more spacious, comfortable and light. I had the English breakfast. While I usually prefer larger format full englishes, I have to give credit where credits due: every element of this breakfast tasted exceptionally fresh and high quality. The coffee was also delicious. The service was cheerful and friendly. Our visit was a great treat all round.

Fine Baps

10/10 - Enjoyed a granary bap with chicken and bacon, absolutely delicious- Crisps, drinks and cookies all to compliment, what a fantastic lunch spot and reasonably priced. 10/10, will certainly be back!

Peking Chef

Delicious food, no waiting to collect, friendly service, complimentary prawn crackers and situated in a quaint village. Excellent value for money too. Cannot fault, highly recommend!

Domino's Pizza - Haywards Heath

The pizza was nice. Customer service was satisfactory. The pizza was ready in less than 10 minutes and was nice and hot. Enjoyed the pizza should have given a 5 star but the place doesn't have enough parking space and difficult to get in to the space available considering the location and traffic. Taking 1 star because i had to use another shops parking space to collect the pizza and the shopkeeper was not happy about it. Luckily the pizza was ready while arriving and saved further trouble.

JO.CO Cafe

This place is amazing ? a little spot in a nice town, service very polite and friendly, the menù rich of different options with fresh juices, the portion big with a right price also 10% discount if you pay in cash.
So what are you waiting for?! Take your car grab your dog and try a nice Portuguese ?? cotardo.

Orange Square

There is little doubt that the Kitchen at the OS produces food of a quality that would rival many a popular restaurant, anywhere. The weekly specials are always innovative and delicious, using seasonal produce. They deserve every plaudit they receive.

Ardingly Café

A must go for me whenever I’m in the area. Cosy little cafe, food is good and fresh, and their coffee is the best in the area. Love their marmite mushroom and streaky bacon french toast. They serve very good full breakfast too

Go Gourmet

The best place to buy a sandwich in the Haywards Heath area. My recommendation would be a simple egg mayo on brown bread with as much salad as they can squeeze in. Delicious, fresh, great value and excellent customer service.

Tory's Café in the Park

Tory’s Cafe is underrated! We’ve been here several times now for food and coffee and have never been let down. The food is amazing (the best superfood salad!), the coffee is great and the staff are all so lovely and welcoming. It’s a lovely set up with both a nice indoor and outdoor area. We love this place and highly recommend if you’re in the area!

The Victory Inn

Proper village green pub . Sometimes with cricket being played on the green while you sup your drinks outside. Limited spaces at the pub but easy parking along the road. Friendly staff .

Sussex Kebab House

Great place. Been going here for years and never had a bad kebab or burger. A bit cheaper than Ephesus but easily as good in my opinion. Parking outside is possible in the spaces on the road. Otherwise, after 6pm park in the car park nearby for free and walk through the cut through by the Chinese place.

The Lockhart Tavern

I've been here a few times, and each visit has been an absolute delight! I celebrated Father's Day here and indulged in their incredible cheese board and mouthwatering wings – both were a hit! I can’t wait to come back for a casual drink and some tempting small plates. The atmosphere is fantastic, with beautifully curated decor and an open pass kitchen that adds to the vibrant energy! I highly recommend starting off with the cheese board – it's a must-try! Can't wait for my next visit!

Tom’s Food

This place has been on my radar for ages and I made it there at last yesterday - had a bowl with a couple of salads, which were both delicious (and great value) and a really good flat white - love the design, we were in the cosy back room, and our waitress was really sweet and friendly. If I lived nearer I’d be hear a lot

Panda Town

The food here is absolutely delicious! Everything is fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared.Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the service is quick and friendly Definitely one of my favourites..From Cat ? ??

Curry Inn

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Curry inn and I was thoroughly impressed by both the quality of the cuisine and the level of service. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and rich in authentic Indian flavors.

Washingtons Fish & Chips

Ordered large cod and chips plus jumbo battered sausage and mushy peas via Deliveroo. Arrived quickly and couldn’t fault the food. Nice and hot and when they say large cod they mean it. Batter on cod and jumbo sausage very crispy and not too greasy and the chips were well cooked. Lovely mushy peas. Well recommended.

The Farmers Pub & Food

The Farmers is one of the last proper pubs in the local area! A great selection of beers on offer, 2 pool tables, darts, kareoke, and really good food! The staff and management are very welcoming and friendly, especially Sam who always provides amazing service with a lovely smile! A really great atmosphere ??

The Ardingly Inn

Excellent service, large hospitable village pub. Only pub in centre of village. Friendly locals and very kindly staff. All year round Badger beer on tap, with seasonal offerings. Much overlooked for more glitzy contemporaries. Needs more Patrons. Come support it or it will close.

The Bay Tree

One of my all time favourite cafes. Lovely staff, brilliant food and drinks. Always friendly. Not dog friendly inside, but you can take your dog in to order and then go outside or the marquee to sit.

COOK Haywards Heath

We had a toasted panini which was lovely but the star of the show was the festive sandwich which was utterly amazing. I struggled to finish it as it had so much filling but I was determined to. It had the perfect combination and the stuffing had little crispy edges that made it even more authentic. We had a danish pastry to complete our lunch and they were delicious. The service was friendly and helpful from arrival to departure we couldn’t fault anything. Excellent coffee and high quality hot chocolate. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

Bella’s Pantry

Ali’s Kebab

I ordered my food by phone and when I arrived the food was ready and hot. The quality of food was excellent, my order was mix chicken and lamb shish kebab. Honestly the chicken one was the best I’ve had so far.
