| This pub is great on a sunny summer's day. Take the kids and go for a swim. You can hire boats to paddle up the river and kids jump off the old railway bridge. It's a fun location. The beer is good and the food ok. The inside of the pub is lacking in atmosphere. It is very out of the way, so no passing trade. If you know where to find it you will return time and time again for a summer beer, but evenings are very quiet. flagship - 22 Aug 2007 10:31 |
| Lovely location - but you need to be there half an hour before it opens on Sunny weekend to get a table. And then que for a drink when it opens. JohnnyCrow - 6 Aug 2007 08:43 |
| Lovely setting by a river, and good fun for kids who want to play in the garden, but when we went, the food was poor. When we asked the owner (?) what was good on the menu, and he said 'well, the fish is excellent today', implying it was freshly caught - but when it arrived, it wasn't fresh, just battered and deep fried, served with frozen peas! A portion of bread was £3!! Won't be bothering again - spoilt for choice in Sussex for better country pubs that don't rely on location alone to pull in the punters. gibberal - 10 Jul 2007 11:17 |
| Went to this pub for lunch on a sunny Friday at the beginning of June. Idyllic surroundings - could have been the model for the Potwell Inn, where Mr Polly finished up. We ate excellent fish and chips and sausage and mash with Harveys in the riverside beer garden. Service was friendly and efficient, though admittedly the place was far from busy. Shall go back as soon as I get a chance. PhilipHoggetWood - 5 Jun 2007 19:26 |
| We went for sunday lunch here recently and thought the food was very average and very pricey. Sunday roast was poor with very toucgh meat. Poor veggie choices and service was also average. When we requested if we could have a side order of fries (as we were ordering a few fish and chip dinners) we were told chef wouldn't be able to do that. The waitress then came back and told us the chef was in a good mood and so we could have our fries after all! The other thing I didn't like was they took your credit card and just presented you with the card machine without showing you a breakdown of the bill - not standard practice. Lovely location and fantastic place for a drink on a nicve day but definitely would not eat there again. anonymous - 14 May 2007 19:48 |
