| Probably the cleanest pub I've ever been in, everything just gleams. Well kept Harveys, a very pretty pub, a lovely open fire, really quite nice. nelly0164 - 8 May 2012 17:41 |
| Lovely old classic pub building with nooks & crannies everywhere. Adnams, London pride & Harveys on, I tried the Adnams and Harveys & they were both good. Food was reasonably priced and everyone enjoyed it, I had "wild boar sausages" which were excellent. Bunch of right grumpy locals barricading the bar but I can put up with that. alan_From_SAWW - 16 Oct 2011 16:50 |
| We arrived bedraggled out of the rain and our group group of 8 was welcomed warmly. We enjoyed a range of food (at reasonable prices) which sustained us for our onward journey. Very pleased given the reviews below. roryfear - 18 Aug 2011 13:48 |
| Pros: Beautiful low-beamed building. Log fires. Polite , efficient and (mostly) friendly service. Nice Harveys on tap. Cons: Food is frankly poor to average. Roast beef was rubbery, fish and chips looked like they'd been cooked, left and then reheated. Would agree with the previous comments about freezer-fare. Could have done better myself with very little effort. Such a nice atmosphere in the pub, I really wanted to like it. Can't score it more highly due to the very disappointing food. I will return one day, but not to eat. Sussex_Man - 28 Dec 2009 11:19 |
| A beautiful, low-ceilinged 17century barn pub, serving food. We visited on a lovely sunny spring day, and the pub had just the right level of custom - plenty of tables available outside, but a good 40-50 people dotted about drinking and eating. We arrived at about 2pm, and walked up to the bar. We were the only customers waiting to be served, and there was nobody behind the bar. After a short time, the barmaid/landlady appeared from the restaurant, and proceeded to tour the tables collecting glasses. She walked past us, and then went outside and continued collecting glasses there, before wandering back inside, past us again, into the kitchen. After another minute or so, she reappeared, and then took a seat with her friends and started chatting! She must have seen us, but for some reason decided not to bother serving us for about five minutes. When we finally were served, the lemonade was completely flat and tasted very odd. She also asked us in a very offhand way "You aren't hoping to eat, are you, because the restaurant's shut". We weren't intending to eat, but to shut the restaurant at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon is pretty odd, especially as the food serving hours on the board behind her suggested that service should still be going on for a little while yet. In summary - a pleasant enough building, but the service was pretty woeful, and the quality of the drink very much lacking. llykstw - 29 Apr 2009 15:56 |
