The reason people might say this is a regulars pub is because it's actually a family pub, and therefore, thats what a lot of family pubs are like.
It is not a clicky pub at all and the regulars will treat you with respect and like any other customer if you decide to go there.
It is out of the town centre, and in a residentual area, so therefore you are not going to get the 1am closing time, which means it is a nice pub and you don't get any of the idiots in there, like other venues in the town centre.
The beer garden is far superior to any other offering pubs in the area may have. There is a very large undercover smoking area, and garden for children to play in (yes, again, it is a fmily pub).
The pub also offers Sky Sports and Setanta Sports.
The bar staff are friendly to everyone.
Great place to go, best in Burgess Hill!!!

This place I suppose has never been that great, unless you are in with the locals! Its one them pubs where if your face fits and your spending money, then you're accepted. If you Choose another boozer for a change and then go back there, you will be greeted by regular faces that almost scowl at the fact you dared go back! This really is the "clickiest" of all pubs I have ever been in!

If you do manage to a get a "regular" status, you will be treat to private parties, plenty of takeaways and friends that will last as long as your spending money there!

Its not a nice place and the bar staff are miserable as sin! It used to have good fun people behind the bar who had a laugh whilst working! Now its like a funeral gathering!! Oh well, I'm off to Barcena for a friendly beer!!

Unless you are a local you are made to feel very unwelcome, some staff even appear very surly.

We didnt stay and went to the Woolpack which is just one of the far superior pubs in Burgess Hill.

I guess the Brewery/owners will get it right eventually, lets hope so because it has great potential.

Nice clean recently refurbished pub with excellent outdoor smoking facilities and pool room.

However I do try and avoid drinking in here as it seems if you are not a regular you're not welcome. Bar staff miserable 90% of the time.

Still good, as i have mentioned before.

The recent re-fit took a bit of getting used to and I'm still not sure about it, but its a business and it needs numbers drinking to make money
Its clean, welcoming (and the loos have advanced 40 years in 6 months, hoorah!) and not a chav hole like so many others.

An underused garden which is now in very good shape.
