Excellent food, and lovely service. We ate in the restaurant on a Sunday. The food arrived quickly; it looked beautifully presented and was cooked perfectly. One of the best roasts I have eaten in Sussex.

We had a dog and my mum is in a wheelchair and everyone was very attentive. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcome and the service was excellent, especially Holly - perfect level of service. Thank you!

We had a great time and all enjoyed our meals. There were 8 of us for a birthday dinner, there were no long waits and no issues that I remember! My only gripe was the paltry amount of custard given with my Apple Crumble.

Food great but service on this occasion not so good. 4 adults (2 60+ ) plus mother and 21 year old. 21 year old served cider by one waitress without question. 2nd time different waitress insisted on ID which he didnt have -so wouldnt serve it. disappointing experience. May not be back quite so soon
