The Brooksteed

Under new ownership since 2017, The Brooksteed is a small wet led pub specialising in real ales, craft beers, ciders, wines and selected spirits. Now under new ownership we will still focus on quality ales and other traditional drinks in a quiet atmosphere that promotes conversation and socialising. The drinks we provide you are of top quality with an emphasis on but limited to local . Ales, ciders and perry are be served direct from the cask in our purpose-built cool room which is visible from the seating area. Craft beers direct from our taps. We’re able to advise on what the drinks are like, to suit your preferred taste. Dogs are welcome as are well behaved owners.

Anchored Micro Pub

Reviewed By 117davidgyahoo

Popped in with 3 mates for a drink. Stayed for a few. Nice range of ale and cider, also sells spicy pork scratchings. Lots of bits and bobs to check out, the landlord Nigel knows his beer and always happy to help with your selection. They change regularly, so won’t recommend anything!! Try the “spitfire seat”... Don’t go to a typical pub, try this gem.

The Georgi Fin Micropub

Reviewed By ryanw957 - Worthing, United Kingdom

Worthing's latest Micropub is the best one yet! All the staff are very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable, they really know their ale which helps. I visit regularly and there is always a superb variety of local and regional ales, as well as a choice of delightful ciders and excellent wines available. They also have a selection of fine European beers and have recently started doing additional keg beers for added choice. The pub has a pleasant atmosphere, a traditional feel but with modern decor, and is a great place to have a chat with your beer. You must try the pies when you visit (there is usually a vegetarian option too) or the pork pies, both of which are delicious. The pub provides a cheeseboard and cured meat selection every Sunday from midday too. They even offer takeaway beer if needed! Probably the best pub in Worthing.

Arundel Jailhouse

One of Sussex's most unique, intimate and cosy live entertainment venues. Located in the historic Arundel Town Hall prison cells guests are greeted with a friendly welcome and fully licensed bar. Arundel Jailhouse hosts a wide variety of event including live music, live blues, comedy and murder mystery dinners. A great evening out with friends and if you're lucky enough you can get yourself one of their unique "VIP" cell booths! Arundel Jailhouse is also available for private and corporate hire.

Reviewed By Reb0310

Amazing off the street venue and private hire available,lots packed in and on for evening entertainment throughout the year and feel good night out for us adults as well as ghost walks through the day, with lots of laughs GUARANTEED! So much effort is put in by everyone involved and the content... Staff are lovely, accommodating too, where else can you get to do a murder mystery in a jailhouse or go to an 80s disco or the jailhouse screamers comedy night? It's different and quaint with actual cells, love Arundel, love the jailhouse when I visit family and friends and definately will be back in 2020 ????

Welcome to The Crown Inn Cootham, we are a family run pub located in the Sussex countryside village of Cootham. The 500 year old Crown Inn oozes charm and character. Enjoy a table by our large cosy fireplace, crooked beams, a warm welcome and a fluffy pub dog all await you. We serve freshly prepared home cooked traditional pub food, real cask ales and a selection of larger and cider on draught. We also offer a great spirit selection including the latest trends in flavoured Gin,Rum and Vodka. We pride ourselves on our friendly and attentive service, come see for yourselves.

Reviewed By firecrest100

given the current problems the inn has changed to offering take-away menu. You telephone with your order (see the menu online) and are given a time slot (one every ten minutes to facilitate social distancing). I ordered the Hunter Chicken and my partner the salmon in pink peppercorn sauce. Both have been excellent. They are served in a cardboard box that was sufficient to keep it hot for the drive home. Cannot fault the food or service.

The Limeburners

We are a beautiful, 400 year old, traditional country pub in Billingshurst with a camp site situated out the back.

Reviewed By beachc0mber2 - Sirmione, Italy

We received a warm welcome on arrival from Lisa, who made us laugh and added to our experience with her friendly manner & humour. The food was fantastic, we had starters, main & dessert. We had booked dinner at another pub on the following night but had to come back to the limeburners for the atmosphere. Rob the owner is very friendly and again a great sense of humour made us feel like we were locals.We will be back !!

Wheatsheaf Bognor Regis

Our pub is at the heart of the local community, a place where families can relax together and enjoy some pub grub, we have a kids menu and a golden years menu for those with a smaller appetite. Food is not all we do at The Wheatsheaf, we have regular charity fundraisers including our summer fun day, Christmas hamper raffle and much more. Still not convinced our bar area, away from the restaurant has a big projector screen to watch all the best sporting action, we hold various entertainment nights, live music, discos etc. Pop in, say hello, enjoy a drink and make some friends along the way.

Brewery Shades

Reviewed By Cheekynix - Crawley, United Kingdom

Traditional proper English Pub, beams, ghost and loads of Character, great history as it used to be a !5th century gaol.. Wonderful walk back in time in Crawley which is quite a new town, but on the historical High Street which has some lovely old buildings, definitely a good place to explore if in the area, wonderful staff, they will make you feel welcome and tell you all about the place, at least try the homemade scotch eggs if your trying the main meals, you won t be sorry.. And any of the ten real ales is woth a go but they are happy to give tasters...result...
