The Pelham Arms, Lewes

I took my wife to the Pelham Arms for Valentines Day, and we had a fantastic meal. The home cured salmon was just about the best I've tasted, and the local fish stew was delicious. I finished with the sticky toffee pudding which was also excellent, but pretty much finished me off! My wife loved the south downs lamb she had. The service was attentive as well, and no complaints there. This pub went through a rocky patch after Jo left, but the new owners have done a great job putting it back on track. Maybe I'm just getting old, but I don't miss the wild party pub it used to be, and appreciate the warm family friendly feel to the place now.
