I didn't stay just popped in for Sunday lunch and it was fantastic. The lunches looked huge so the host offered me a child's size lunch and it was still enormous for me. It was delicious. I had the chicken breast and all the Sunday trimmings cooked to perfection. The only downside was that the gravy was a little too salty for me. I don't cook with salt these days so I may be biased.
Yes there are plastic cloths on the tables, but we didn't need a reservation and everything was very clean and well presented.
I would definitely recommend the food and the service. It is also dog friendly which us very useful for us.
The locals in the bar were also friendly and welcoming.
Great local pub, though it's a Harvey's so not the best ale selection. The menu is standard "pub-grub" but the dishes are deliciously decadent and generous. The Royal Oak Burger is probably the best burger I've ever had, the chips are unbelievably good. The Chef is a lovely Lady who is as mad as a box of frogs.
I was passing by and came by chance to have a sandwich, but ended up having very good lunch.
Lovely place with nice people. Friendly staff.
Thank you Katie! The Chef is very good, burger
was amazing.
The chef does his own souses, he can give you
as hot as you like, but be careful.
Lovely, cosy little pub with a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and pleasant. Dogs are welcome which makes for an even more pleasant addition. The prices are average for a Sussex pub and the drinks selections are great. The food is INCREDIBLE! The portions are massive and the quality is amazing. I love coming here! Would certainly recommend it for a nice relaxing drink or a meal out!
What a find!
Best roast lunch I've had so far in Britain.
Walking in we were a bit worried by the plastic table cloths and the lack of customers but you must just ignore that and order anyway! The food was top notch, all of it! The pork, beef, the chicken all generous portions and some very good trimmings including some Mediterranean roasted veggies "on the house" that went great with my Pork and the rotisserie chicken especially.
Service was good, prompt and attentive.
Presentation was nowhere near as good as some of the pics I've seen on other reviews but I assume that this is due to the Sunday roast menu dishes.
Maybe as a testimony to the quality of the food Nobody even had the time to snap a pic...we just dug in and polished off the plates!
Great food on a very crazy Sunday there where 10 of us eating and a male chef Come and presented our food witch looked amazing and tasted even better. I will definitely be coming back. Me and my family had a really nice afternoon. Great food even better staff as they all worked together. I hope the chef and the young boy cooking are proud. Thank you
Visited many times and have never been disappointed with Sunday lunch! Sometimes you may wait a while if the kitchen is busy - but everything is home cooked. We always bring our lovely and well behaved German shepherd with us and the staff have always made him welcome. Looking forward to our next visit.
Superb pub food offering, one of the best ham (ham, egg and chips) I have ever tasted, due to the proprietors smoking and roasting their own meats. (Ribs were also recommended) the soup of the day (butternut squash) was also great. Pleasant surroundings and warm friendly staff (& dog/cat) despite the outside looking uninviting, the food makes up for it. Recommended.
