A traditional pub serving great food and award winning ales
Reviewed By DeeDee8057
We've eaten here before; my husband is devoted to Harvey's beer, so whenever we return to Sussex, this is where we aim for. However, I was really disappointed this time.On the plus side: the beer is wonderful, the service was OK, toilets spotless, nice surroundings;BUTThe food, although cooked on the premises (ie not boiled in the bag) wasn't hot. I had sausage, mash, vegetables and gravy; the sausages and mash were hot, the carrots OK, but the broccoli, kale and cabbage we stone cold! Really unacceptable.No-one came to check if our food was OK.Might well have to try somewhere else next time, which makes me very sad.

Visited recently and was pleasantly surprised by the food choices. Was reluctant to visit due to the many recent changes of owners etc but no complaints this time. Good choice of food, beers and the staff were welcoming.Nice to have the choice of some classic pub food. Worth a visit.
