Your true English country pub… not too fancy and wonderfully authentic!Had a great lunch there today, good food, lovely staff and great ambience, what’s not to like!We also loved the fact that they had sandwiches available at lunchtimes, if that’s what you fancy as opposed to a full meal, although the sandwiches were hearty too… desserts were delicious and just the right sized serving… ???Thank you again, we will be back for sure, and thank you for laughing with us!! ?

Tucked away, peaceful, family, English country pub. You know a place is a hit when your children wish to return when asked where we should go for dinner! Our girls were so well looked after, and we were thoroughly taken care of. Delicious food, obviously (from the comment above) fantastic service and we are looking forward to return soon! Thank you to The Stag.

I have had two fabulous dinners recently at the Stag, super service, super food, fabulous views towards the Downs. We enjoyed seeing hounds there on Boxing Day, what an unexpected treat. Extremely hospitable, we will be back, thank you. …

Awesome little dog friendly pub. Only stopped for a welcome drink after the dogs had a fab run around Petworth park but will definitely be back.

Lovely country pub, nice drinking and seperate eating area. Food was good all around but the burger looked pretty average, not worth £16. Apart from that though a really nice experience. Would go again.

This is a proper country pub! Big inglenook fire, cozy little bar room, nice restaurant area. Good food at reasonable prices in a beautiful village. Love it!

Brilliant pub and fantastically well managed. A true West Sussex pub that has a high quality selection of drinks along with a great kitchen which serves fresh local sustainable produce. 10/10, everyone is welcome here no where you’ve traveled from.

A superb catch up with so many friends at the annual Boxing Day trail hunt meet. Everywhere I turned there were locals enjoying a drink and supporting their rural pub. Everyone was welcomed by this quaint, friendly establishment and I thank them for hosting the meet. We will be back for dinner very soon.

Fantastic country pub. Attended the Boxing Day meet which was a fabulous display of trail hunting within the law, a chance to meet friends and make new ones in a wonderful rural community. The staff were lovely and made for a great day. Will certainly return.

Busy Boxing Day annual Boxing Day legal trail hunt. Visitors from far and wide all ages all pleasant and great weather Doug M I don’t know what pub you were at but there was no violence or threatening behaviour!!. Everyone I met or spoke to was friendly and courteous!! Maybe your view would change if you visited the pub they do a nice vegan burger have tried it !!

I entered this pub on Boxind Day and I was horrified to discover they were hosting a fox hunt. Fox hunters are cruel criminals who torture wildlife. Surely no respectable pub should welcome these shameful relicts from the past?
