180 Degrees Bar & Kitchen in Mid Sussex

Lovely view. Quality of the food was good. Service was slow and the place was quiet when we arrived. My breakfast wasn't hot, eggs were cold. Very pricey. £16 for a full English that doesn't include black pudding, that was an extra £2 and I got 1 slice. Pot of tea also not included. Lovely view but I won't be returning any time soon.

We’ve been here several times before and unfortunately the same issue time and time again……..not enough staff on service! We came here for Mothers Day and yes the view is amazing but the experience left us disappointed. After being seated at our table, we had to ask the girl to take our drinks order after waiting what felt like an age! The menu said there was a 30 minute wait for food as it was cooked to order. Absolute tosh!! The food was not cooked to order (we waited about 50 minutes). Ours was mildly warm and the potatoes had been reheated several times! The food order that came was also incorrect with several items missing. We got served by a chap who they pulled from the kitchen as they were clearly under staffed - a theme on every visit here! The staff there were very nice but clearly run ragged! After experiencing this same issue on each of our visits, I felt compelled to review. This is a lovely venue, the view is incredible and the food is good but they are at least 3 staff short! We were sitting alongside tables who waited an age for their drinks order to be taken and then their food order to be taken. All the staff were running around in a panic and there seemed no organisation! It’s such a shame as if this place would sort the staffing shortage it would be a perfect venue. How long will a reputation last on just a view?!

Out with friends today for breakfast and thought we would try 180 degrees bar & kitchen, so glad we did. The food was excellent and the service also. Lovely location, superb view.

Quality food and lovely restaurant, service is a little slow but it is high quality food not rushed and the staff are great .. perfect for lunch , coffee or brunch on the terrace

Food and views are good. £15 for avo on toast is a bit steep. The decor seems disconnected, somewhere between a restaurant, sports bar and club house.

Great views and atmosphere but let down by inattentive/poor service. I asked for my egg to be well done and it came back really underdone. Also asked for bacon as a substitute for smoked salmon and was charged extra! The food is otherwise great but is very overpriced. It’s not an issue with the servers per se, who are all very friendly, it seems like it’s management not providing adequate training and maximising profit, coupled with a scary chef (the waitress looked terrified when I asked if I could have a well don egg).

We are on our way to Brighton to enjoy the evening... On the way my husband brought me to this restaurant (25 miles from Brighton) and about an hour away from London. To start with we had a cocktail - spicy chilli Margarita, which was to die for ... followed by some awesome starters and amazing mains. The customer service was just fabulous too - extremely helpful and welcoming. We are definitely coming back with our girls. Beautiful valentine's evening....

Amazing service - so kind & generous. Food was incredible and portion sizes were massive! Thank you, we will definitely be back

Have enjoyed a lovely family brunch this morning. Food was delicious, views wonderful and staff very accommodating, friendly and professional. Our first visit to 180°, will not be our last. Party of 7

Excellent restaurant with stunning views. Dog and child friendly. Great food.

Amazing views of Sussex country side, lovely food and service. The best roast in Sussex. We had a lunch for 30 today and food was delicious with brilliant service. Particularly Micheal. Thanks all

Great location, service and food. We always love it 180 Degrees Bar and Kitchen….and what a lovely view, breakfast, lunch and dinner + pizza and entertainment

First time visiting, came with a friend and did not read any reviews in advance, just came with an open mind. We had a beautiful evening, greeted by the owner had lovely drinks, food was amazing (had the pizza / pasta menu) just delicious. Then we took our drinks over to the sofas by the fire to finish off - perfect! Staff were all lovely, very warm and friendly. Atmosphere was great. Will definitely come back soon

Great spot, very warm and cozy and the service was spot on. Great view of the golf course. Very clean space that is well maintained

Lovely setting but the food is so over priced for average food. Since when has a burger been £21! London prices for a village setting.

"Absolutely loved this place! The breakfast was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The pancakes were fluffy, the coffee was perfect, and the service was outstanding. A cozy spot I’ll definitely return to!"

Airy but cozy venue. Great views. Staff were very attentive. Food and coffee was lovely. Parking got quite busy, so something to bare in mind.

Lovely view and might be a nice place but after two hours of waiting for food we had to leave starving, We can understand things go wrong in the kitchen sometimes but staff should keep you updated on the delays and not promise the food would arrive in ten minutes, only to wait another 45 minutes. Upon asking if the food would be much longer our waitress was immediately aggressive and rude and escalated the situation rather than offering any sort of apology. Turns out she was the owner. The situation was handled so badly that we were too uncomfortable to stay and wait any longer. I wish we had read the reviews before visiting as bad service seems to be a common theme. We will never return after being spoken to so badly by the owner . Avoid.

Pizzas are tasty and service good. Really busy on a busy lunch time Saturday but good atmosphere and nice views over the golf course.

We had the best time celebrating a family birthday at 180 Degrees! The service was brilliant and every dish was amazing! The special touch of a birthday dessert was so thoughtful as well, we’ll definitely be back!

Wonderful evening on a whim. Pizza and pasta both delicious (that's amazing from a half Italian). Fantastic service, good chat with waitress Lois and chef Daniel, both very lovely to speak to with lots of life experiences. Couldn't ask for more ps my 50th birthday stop off and the presented me with a brownie celebration cake - so lovely x

Very disappointing. The view was stunning but we won't be going back. We had 6-8 waitresses serve us from start to finish but I still had to try and get their attention to get a drinks refil, I had to go up to ask for the bill and no one asked us how our meal was or why I had left most of it when clearing our plates. Tables very tightly packed. Chicken was delicious but the roast potatoes weren't crunchy at all so they were left and don't really see finely chopped up cabbage and mashed carrot as vegetables to go with a roast, so they were left as well. The 2nd time ever we've never left a tip.

First time here and can’t fault it at all. Food was lovely (only the eggs were slightly over done) but most importantly the staff were amazing. Lovely friendly attentive. Myself and my daughter came for breakfast she had pancakes and I had the full English. Wasn’t cheap but to be honest the quality shows it’s not cheap ingredients. Will definitely be back.

A fantastic meal with exceptional customer service, particularly from Justina. From start to finish, the entire team was wonderful and made the brunch thoroughly enjoyable. Justina was incredibly endearing and helpful, making the occasion truly special. Thank you so much! We are already planning on returning in the New Year.

Had a company Christmas do here, the staff were excellent, friendly and attentive. It was raining and dark so I can't comment on the outside spaces but they looked great from what I could see, ample parking. The food was pizza and cheese and snacks so very nice and constantly bringing fresh pizza out all night. I would like to go back another time to see what it's like in the day time.

Lovely food, staff friendly. We sat near the wood burning fire which was beautifully decorated.

We popped into 180 Degrees for a quick coffee as we were passing and hadn't tried it before. What a great place. Lovely views. Excellent, hot coffee and really welcoming and friendly staff. We will be back.

Food here is amazing, we went for breakfast and shared both sweet and savoury meals and both were really nice! Restaurant also has stunning views over the golf course. Staff were also really friendly!

First time here and such a lovely place. Very friendly staff and an amazing pizza by the fire. Driving range was good value too. Highly recommended

Food was great, the service was fantastic. I would highly recommend the Sunday Roast. The food in general and the peaceful surroundings are a lovely way to spend time on the the weekend.

Brunching with the best of friends, reminiscing about old times and catching up over good food. The food was delicious—especially the steak frites, which were cooked to perfection, and the full English, which was hearty and full of flavour. If you’re visiting, I’d highly recommend opting for the hot chocolate with marshmallows. It was nice and busy, giving a great lunch atmosphere and the view was stunning. A perfect spot for a relaxing and indulgent brunch. I’ll definitely be back! 🌟

After dreadful service and a long wait for a Sunday lunch last year I tried again for lunch with a friend. Lots of staff around but no one that interested in serving. We had a table and ordered 2 sandwiches ( about £18!!!!!). One had a dried out overcooked breadcrumbed something that was supposed to be tenderloin pork which was awful, lots of staff hanging around but no one cleared our plates until I asked. I mentioned the overcooked tasteless pork and the lady took 50% off which was reasonable. Lovely views but staff need training and food needs to improve in m opinion

Gorgeous restaurant cafe bar. Great coffee and food with a warm fire and stunning scenery to boot!

Awesome food and drink. Great, happy atmosphere. Being friends and family really helped.

A lovely place but unfortunately they forgot all three side orders which was disappointing. They did refund and apologise.

Amazing breakfast to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Staff where extremely accommodating and friendly. We will be back !

We went for pizza last Friday evening and had to wait 50 minutes for our food to be served. During that time we felt ignored. After waiting 40 minutes I asked two bar staff how much longer we would have to wait, only for them to disappear and never answer me. The children became restless and hungry and we got the impression that the management and bar staff weren’t really that sorry or cared much. We gave feedback and their response was nonchalant to say the least. It isn’t acceptable to wait almost an hour for your food and to receive the excuse that they are ‘busy’. So, overall, a disappointing experience. Unfortunately, we won’t be eating there again even though we really like the place and go there often.

The 3 stars are purely because the food a delicious and the view is beautiful. Without that, it would have been 1 as the service is diabolical! We booked as a birthday treat for a friend. We knew it was pricey but expected quality. Initially, things went well. We were shown to a table and had only just sat down before a better table became free, so we were invited to move. The initial drink order was wrong, and my friend was brought a pint rather than a half. The waitress said she'd got it wrong but would only charge for the half (in fact the bill was for a pint!) We all ordered from the set 2 course menu, and asked for a side order of chips. We waited and waited and waited, and after chasing up our food were eventually given our main course. We reminded the waitress that we were waiting for chips, but they didn't come. We chased it up, they still didn't come. My friend finally went to the bar to chase it up again, and eventually they arrived, just as we were finishing our food!! We were asked if we wanted desserts even though we'd already ordered them, but ordered some coffees to have with them. The coffee arrived promptly, but there was no sign of our desserts. We waited, and waited and waited (can you see where I'm going with this?)... chased it up, and eventually, having finished our coffee, 3 lemon possets finally arrived. Bearing in mind they had come from a fridge and only needed to be put on a plate with a biscuit, there is no reason it should take sooooo long!! It had taken nearly 2 hours to serve and eat a 2 course lunch, which is ridiculous. The staff were perfectly nice, but it was as though the waitress who served us immediately forgot what we'd asked for the second she walked away from the table. It wasn't particularly busy and there were enough staff. As other people have said, we weren't at any point asked how our food was, we were just instantly forgotten and had to battle to get our meal! Prior to writing this review, I've scanned previous ones and noted that there are quite a lot of complaints in recent reviews about service compared to a year ago. A few have been responded to with an apology, and 'please contact me to discuss' response. A couple have an 'I can't find your booking' response and no apology (my friend booked so you won't find my booking either!). However, despite the apologies, the service clearly hasn't improved, so nothing has changed. It's a shame as the venue is lovely and the food was nice. For the price though, the service should be much much better. There will always be someone who's not happy, but I rarely complain and am fair in my reviews. It seems that the owners have no wish to improve the service despite the comments, and for that reason, I will also not be returning.

Shocking service. Shown to our table. No drinks menu, then asked what we would like to drink and had to ask for a menu. We then ordered food and drinks at the same time. 20 mins or so later food turns up before the drinks. We had to confirm missing items from our order that hadn’t be delivered. No one asked how the food was or if we wanted any extras with our main. Waited for our table to be cleared and wasn’t asked about desserts. We had to get the attention of another waitress for the desserts menu. When it was delivered we were handed two spoons, no napkins and at this point all our drinks were empty. We were tired of asking for things so didn’t bother asking for an extra round. When they eventually cleared the plates we then had to ask for the bill. When the card machine was brought over the tip option confused mother in law and obviously we didn’t want to leave a tip. Not once were we asked how things were going, however other tables seemed ‘more important, or connected to the club’ than ours. The food however was lovely, slightly cold but really tasty. However for the price I would have expected better service. For over £130 for the final bill of 3 drinks, 2 mains and 2 desserts, would have expected better service We had come for my partners birthday and the service put a damper on things. The view from the main dining room was lovely.

Gorgeous view. Food and service OK (we were made to feel that we were a bit of a nuisance for booking a table and service fairly slow with some items ordered missing. Maybe they were understaffed that day?). View is worth it.

Been a few times before and ok on all occasions. This time, again with family including a toddler, we were left to wait for our food (Sunday roast) for over one hour! The excuse being that there was a big private party upstairs. This is not acceptable and we should have been informed that there would be a longer wait that day. When complaining about the wait, we were given a small bowl of olives between six adults. Not perfect for the toddler!! Once the food was served it was a "mass cooked" roast with overcooked veg, etc. The pork belly that my son chose was unappetising as the fat was like jelly and not crisp. All in all a huge disappointment for the entire family.

Attentive efficient staff, great food and a lovely view

I visited recently, and thought that the food was delicious and the general atmosphere in the restaurant was lovely. Unfortunately, the level of service really let it down - the drinks and starter were forgotten (though later on the drinks were taken off the bill, and were not charged for the starter as it never arrived), no one checked on us during the mains, we had to ask for our plates to be cleared and we were not offered desserts or coffees, meaning we left shortly after. If this was improved, I would definitely visit again.

It's a very nice place, good food and exceptional service. And obviously you can't beat the view. 😜

Pouring with rain outside and welcomed by happy staff and a lovely open fire. For my birthday my partner and I were off too a good start. Seen to a table with q superb view, despite the weather. Fantastic Lindfield Coffee Works Coffee was served and breakfast ordered. A full English with a few extras for me and something with smoked salmon for my partner. The food was excellent and the portions very good. To my surprise birthday cake arrived and before I knew it every member of staff wished me happy birthday. A fantastic, classy and remarkably affordable venue for breakfast... even a special birthday breakfast.

This venue has a magic location, and I have visited several times in the last few months, both solo and with my partner. The coffees have been fine and the service ok. However, the attitude on arrival always feels a little less than welcoming, leaving the feeling that they are like this to everyone or they are picky about who they want to see at the club. We ate in the early days of the kitchen opening and it was a shocker, operationally things have certainly improved since then but the staff attitude remains.

As always friendly organised staff attentive to their patrons Brunch was delicious View and ambience wonderful Highly recommend a visit

Just wanted to say how kind the staff were today when my dad came in today and felt unwell, what a lovely bunch you are

Wet Sunday morning popped in for a cup of coffee, made to feel unwelcome wanting just that, allowed 30 mins to sit n drink the coffee whilst being it seemed clock watched. But the place has excellent views n good looking menu, my first visit, hope to attend and a quiet coffee enjoyed

Fantastic food, beautiful views and friendly staff - that about sums up 180 degrees! I went there with my family to celebrate my birthday on a Sunday lunch and the roast dinner was just perfect. I had the prime rib special and it was exactly how you want it to be. Make sure you save room for dessert too though. Only 1 criticism is the lack of child menu - they only have child size roast options. Other than that…….cannot fault it!

I took a friend for a birthday lunch today. We were welcomed warmly by the staff and seated in a great spot overlooking the fantastic view. The service was quick - especially when I mentioned I had to get to back to work within the hour. I had the tuna sandwich was cooked perfectly. I had told a member of staff (Eve) it was my friend's birthday that day and she made a wonderful effort to make the lunch even more special by bringing out a birthday dessert free of charge. My friend was incredibly touched and it topped off a perfect visit to this fabulous place. Thoroughly recommended.

Great Sunday roast, we tried the pork and vegetarian options and both were delicious

Excellent breakfast and pleasant helpful staff .Lovely views from the patio area.

What a find, neighbours recommended. Had breakfast on terrace in the sunshine, absolutely blissful. Staff so friendly, service excellent and food to die for . Thank you 180 degrees

Fantastic breakfast. Very tasty and staff were very welcoming. Will definitely go again 👍🏻 Views were brilliant and great location

We were seated on the terrace which has wonderful views. There was a wait before we were offered a drink so we ordered food at the same time. Two tables that we were aware of were served before us and had arrived after us, there may have been more that were out of view. 1 hour after arriving we thought our meal was approaching. It was given to the table next to us even though there were 3 people and only 2 meals. I'm not sure the new staff are aware of the table numbers.. I asked where our meal was and 10 mins later it arrived, bar the side dish which had been given to the table next to ours. We were not ever asked if everything was OK, if we wanted another drink etc and nothing was cleared from the table until we had left. Other tables had attentive service, perhaps they were members of the golf club and seen as higher priority. The food was nice but portions small. We didn't have a dessert(were not offered one anyway) and asked for the bill. The side dish was still on the bill. We were very much looking forward to our visit but left hungry, dissapointed and annoyed that we were mostly ignored.

We came for a business breakfast and were very lucky with the weather which made for a beautiful view! The food was delicious and the staff were so lovely, friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!

Alot of staff doing very little. The service was ridiculously slow. After ordering I waited 45mins for my drink. Very expensive good job I only managed to get 2 drinks in the almost 4hours I was there. Plenty of staff there so no excuses being at a hen party. Very poor

Really good food, great views across Scrase Valley. Can get busy, but it's worth the wait. Great Sunday lunch.

Delicious breakfast and staff that couldn't be more helpful. Can't wait to go back!

We’ve driven past here a lot as only live down the road and always said we’d pop in but was first time today and was very impressed !! Brunch was so good and the view from the outside seating area is unreal !! Staff all really friendly too so hoping to come back again :)

Good gluten free options and smoothies where MWAHHH tasty 😋 The view was outstanding and added a touch of brilliance to the outdoors dining area

Amazing!!! The food is delicious, and the staff are extremely attentive. I love the ambience, and on a sunny day those views will blow you away. Cannot recommend 180 degrees enough. Thanks to Nikki and all the team.

Great little restaurant. Staff are friendly and helpful and the food is very enjoyable. Would recommend 👍🏻

Fabulous celebration party followed by next day Sunday lunch. Thoroughly recommend the venue, staff and food.

Enjoyed a very delicious steak and chips at 180 degrees. We were sat in the loft for private dining, which is out of the way of the main restaurant, however, we had excellent service. We will be back. Thank you

This venue is beautiful but the service is very underwhelming and food is overpriced. I recently went to 180 degrees with friends for brunch and ordered the avocado with poached eggs which comes with smoked salmon. I'm currently pregnant so asked to not have the smoked salmon but to have bacon instead. The waitress told me she wasn't sure they could do that (which I thought was weird given bacon is on the menu on other dishes) and that she would have to ask the chef. She never came back to me about this but when my food was served it came with bacon (great!) however I was informed it would be at an additional cost (strange given smoked salmon is clearly more expensive than bacon but hey ho). I wouldn't have minded so much if I had been told this before the food came but the dish was expensive anyway and as I was only told when the food arrived I felt I had to have it and pay the extra. When ordering I also had to ask for my eggs to be well cooked (due to pregnancy) which again the waitress wasn't sure was possible, chef would need to approve (I'm sensing a difficult character in the kitchen). I said that was fine but if they weren't able to do it well cooked I wouldn't have the egg. Again, no word on whether the chef agreed to this until my food came out with a rather undercooked egg on top! Thankfully I put it on a side plate before opening it up and realising, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat the food at all. The food itself was tasty but the portions are tiny for the price. I eat out a lot and I would say these prices are higher than the average top spot in London let alone Sussex! Whilst the venue had great views and the ambience was good, there seems to be some issues with personnel/ service that make me reluctant to return.

Food was very good Staff were friendly and sharp

Update* 5* - revisited the next day. The food was amazing 👏. A place with stunning views and great food. I'd give 5* but one of our guests complained that the pheasant was dry. It's definitely worth coming.

Would really recommend this place. Great customer service & stunning view even on a miserable Friday morning. The food is excellent & fantastic quality, the coffee was also exceptional. Thanks for having us we will be back!

Food was good but the service was very slow even though there were plenty of staff and it wasn't busy.

Fabulous coffee at great prices and they recently introduced a Cortado which is extremely good. They also have a great breakfast menu and the bacon & egg sandwiches are excellent. I strongly recommend to come here and I’m sure you want be disappointed. 👍

Lovely brunch for Mother’s Day, lovely food and staff very friendly. Great views, will definitely be returning again.

A lovely Sunday morning breakfast , the service was great and pretty fast . Fabulous views especially when the sun is shining .

Had a lovely brunch. Quite busy so definitely book ahead.

A fantastic outlook but the service was slow, and a 40 minute wait for a burger with hungry children was not ideal. We felt £20 for a burger and a few chips was punchy. The manager tried to resolve matters with complimentary drinks but added them to the bill - most odd. If you’re due to be busy ensure staffing levels are up.

Lovely brunch which was well ❤️‍🩹 presented and beautifully cooked. Nice atmosphere in restaurant with lovely view. Staff friendly and helpful.

Delicious vegetarian breakfast and coffees for our family birthday. Such a lovely place and views, we will be back again.

Lovely food, staff helpful, but a little tricky to get their attention at times. Portions not huge, but good quality. Will return!

We had fun at their 90s night but it ended to early!!

Very friendly staff, great grub !! Dogs allowed too. Wonderful views from the balcony.Their all day breakfast is fab when available.

Exceeded our expectations. Venue is lovely, cozy with open fire and very welcoming. Views were wonderful from our table and the food was the icing on the cake! Catering staff do an amazing job at making your visit an absolute pleasure… Can’t wait to go back for a Sunday roast 😋

Lovely food lovely view great service particularly loved the vegetables and fabulous Yorkshire puddings one of the best Sunday roasts I have had. Thoroughly recommend.

We enjoyed a yummy brunch of mushroom bruscetta and avocado/bacon on sourdough with maple syrup. It was a bit misty outside today so the views were not so good. Inside was really busy with lots of mums and couples.

Beautiful, yummy foods, smiley and happy helpful staff . Here upstairs on a hen do brunch. Wonderful.

Loved this place ...perfect for a lazy lunch on a sunny day

Lovely staff, lovely food, lovely view… lovely! Had a recommendation from a friend and thought we’d give it a try… and we were not disappointed! We will be back!

Fab place. Food was great again and service was really good. They cater well for children and have areas for parties

Hadn’t been on a date for a little while with my partner and I had visited once before with a large group on New Year’s Eve for brunch and loved it. I just knew he would too. Amazing food, we had the pork cheek for starter (beautiful starter, amazing meat and sauce) and we had the chicken and pork roast. Both loved the roast; Hasn’t had a decent one in a while. I usually struggle with sensory issues & anxiety aswell and i felt very comfortable & the roasted vegetables i actually loved (I don’t usually like veg at all). The timing for the food was done well and staff seemed very friendly. Beautiful view even if it was typical grey January weather 😂. Defo coming back for valentines and in the summer especially for that view.

We visited for the first time for breakfast and had a lovely visit. The view from our table was beautiful overlooking the golf course and surrounding hills. Service was good and our food arrived promptly. It was delicious and our only negative comment would be that even though they weren't tiny portions, we could have eaten double. Given the price, a slightly bigger portion of the French toast especially would have been valued.

I looked online for local restaurant with cosy stylish interior and good food. My husband is a chef so always hard to impress. Husband ended up very impressed and said would definitely come back again.

As good, as always Compliments to the breakfast cook Although we always liked our breakfast there, you can feel the difference Will be back soon Ooo and the rest of the staff working together, they would do anything to make you feel warmly welcome in the freezing Thursday morning

Had brunch on New Years Eve which was perfect - fab atmosphere and the views a big bonus . Always enjoy our visits here

This place is STUNNING the most amazing views, food was lovely and staff were really friendly and helpful

Destination Boutique Restaurant Bar and Terrace. (From their website) Really felt that this is a golf club bar that is trying to be a little pretentious. It does have a great view, which is the major thing in its favour. The food was well presented...

Very tasty food. Unfortunately not all items available on menu. Starter and main delivered all at once.

Amazing lunch at 180 degrees, we had x2 sea bass which was perfectly cooked with crispy skin, venison which was tasty and tender and a Christmas dinner which was huge. Washed down with vino

Beautiful place with gorgeous views, went for my aunts birthday, and they were all very accommodating. Thank you!

Stunning views, food and service exceptional

Amazing breakfast. Staff friendly and service was quick. We took some cakes home , which were great.
