Charming quintessential village pub, sitting next to the church and village green. Very good nicely presented food. Staff were excellent. Well worth a visit.

Sunday lunchtime at Noah’s Ark - first off, location is stunning. Sat on the village green, I can imagine in the summer it’s a great spot. Even on a wet Feb afternoon with its open fire it was welcoming. Food wise, it was ok. Menu was quite extensive with some lovely sounding starters and nibbles. A bit pricey though. Our table was mainly a combination of Sunday roasts and burgers and they were a bit hit and miss. Burgers were tasty although a little dry and fairly stingy on the sauces. The roasts were a decent size but the meat fatty and, ours at least, arrived blue and then over done after being sent back. Desserts were ok if not amazing and the service was polite, efficient and responsive. All in all, we had no regrets going to Noah’s Ark but equally no strong desire to go again.

Called in during a walk , without booking and were very lucky to get a table. staff friendly and attentive. We ate from both the bar menu and the main menu and both enjoyed the food. My husband rated the treacle tart as the best he had ever eaten!. Will return, and make sure we book to ensure a table.

We have been a few times really enjoyed the food I enjoyed fish and chips a really light batter with crispy chips my husband had a homemade Xmas pie which had a good pie crust filled with turkey stuffing and ham . Friendly professional service I would highly recommend this pub . Situation - idyllic English village we walked around the church which is worth a visit.

Lovely old country pub. We came here for lunch with friends and booked ahead. The staff were welcoming and friendly, but the service was incredibly slow, and the food was pretty disappointing. I had the crab cakes starter with a house salad. They were awful, frankly. There was no discernable crab meat in them, just a gummy paste rolled in breadcrumbs. The side salad was very unimaginative--lettuce, tomatoes, and spring onions with a boring vinaigrette. My husband and son had the burger, which they said was tasty, but overcooked. Lunch (one course each) for 6 with a couple of drinks each (two of us weren't drinking alcohol, and two people had only one drink each) was almost £200, which I thought was overpriced for the quality of the food.

The canapes and bowl food were excellent and the staff so friendly and professional, when serving the wonderful food and wines to all our guests. The planning with Tray, was super straight forward and she and all the staff went above and beyond, to help make our party such a success. Sending a huge thank you to the whole team!

We celebrated our anniversary here, having been recommended it by a friend, and it was wonderful. Friendly service, great selection of drinks and the most delicious food! Loved the scummy celeriac amuse-bouche, always appreciate this touch. We also enjoyed the cosy fires too on a blustery night. During our meal, an older couple came in and we noticed how the staff were really lovely and physically supported both of them into the dining room and to their table. It’s really heart warming to see people being supported and welcomed in this way. If you want proper, unpretentious but delicious food, in a cosy country pub with fabulous staff, then this is the place. Thank you to all the team x

The Noah's Ark graces the village green and cricket square of beautiful wealden village, Lurgashall. It is equally picturesque itself and offers a great atmosphere (more dining than pub tho' there were drinkers at the bar and quietly watching rugby on TV). Food is good standard gastro pub fare at the sort of prices you might expect to pay for such a beautiful location. BIggest issue we faced was finding a parking spot unthreatened by lusty six hitting from the cricketers. Dog friendly and welcoming. No reason not to return. I'm glad we found this lovely spot.

Excellent in every way. I noticed several reviews with three stars and want to comment on the service charge. The service was brilliant, friendly and very helpful. They even asked my wife on a scale of 1 to 10 how spicy she wanted her Virgin Mary drink - it was 6 and was extraordinarily good. The service charge was 10% on the bill and considering most restaurants now go for 12.5% very very good value. The ambiance was lovely but most important, the food was some of the best we have tasted for a long time. Yes, the sirloin was £30 but it was all excellent and precisely cooked to order. It was a special family meal for us and it was above expectations. It was our first visit and just from looking at the reviews online - congratulations to the chef and everybody at Noah’s Ark, we shall be back!!

The pub is lovely, the service was excellent and friendly, but there were zero vegan options. I had to create my own meal by customising a starter salad by removing the cheese, and adding a side of chips. I had asked for them to be brought on a plate together to make up my meal, but in the end I was given a tiny salad and chips in a bowl. Really disappointing. I eat out a lot in the UK and abroad and it’s almost unheard of now to find such an antiquated menu with nothing for vegans. Such a shame.

Popped into the Noah's Ark yesterday for an impromptu lunch. What a place- sat outside in early spring sun with a perfect pint. Really impressed by the menu and both of us had the ribeye which was superb- perfectly cooked, excellent flavour and a really good chmichuuri. It was the most beautiful day so we were happy outside (a few tables well placed to avoid any cool breeze) but the main dining room looked superb. Seems the perfect place for a family lunch, or to get stuck in on a long afternoon discussing important matters. Fabulous pub, really nice friendly staff and a place we'll definitely get back to soon.

The little warm mince pie with the bill was a nice generous touch. The gentleman who looked after us was very welcoming, friendly and didn't rush us at all. Although they are obviously adhering to Covid rules they have kept their lovely ambience, standard of food and it all felt very safe and relaxed. Plus it was at a very reasonable price too.

Covid security well run without being obtrusive. The waiting staff were genuinely cheeful & extra-helpful (emptying the ice bucket to help us keep cool).

Main points:-No vegetarian roast option, other than "you can have the vegetables and roast potatoes without the meat"-"Jersey new potatoes" to accompany the fish dish were old roasted new potatoes.-"Olives and tomatoes" with fish dish amounted to 2 or 3 of each.

Very narrow roads lead into the beautiful village Green of Lurgashall where you will find the Noahs Ark Inn. Good parking available. We were lucky enough to reserve the Private Dining Room which will take 12 people / 14 max which would be cosy. The Sunday lunch menu has something to suit everyone. We loved the addition of a childrens menu as well. The roast sirloin was cooked to perfection, tender with a delicious crispy yorkshire pudding and a nice range of fresh vegetables - not overcooked. Good selection of desserts finished off our lovely lunch. Attentive service throughout made this a memorable occasion for us all. Will definitely return.

Had arranged to meet friends here on a Friday lunchtime on a beautiful summers day. Arrived at 12-30 to find the outside tables virtually empty and inside deserted. Asked where we could have lunch and were told they were fully booked and run-off their feet. Fortunately our friends had booked a table . We were surprised to find that only another 5 people ateinside and there were 3 tables occupied outside. This used to be a fun, busy pub that enjoyed serving anyone who turned up. Nowadays it seems to be ‘No booking means no food’. We will not return and would not recommend anyone wanting a welcome to go there either.

With three family for a Saturday lunch we booked the last table near the door but also next to a radiator! We all had three courses which is rare for us, but sensible portions of real quality cooking made it an excellent and leisurely experience. The best hamburger I have tasted out of USA!We were offered a move into the restaurant proper but were happy where we were. Friendly efficient service and we shall return for sure. Well done and thank you .

When looking for a meeting point halfway to catch up with a friend visiting the UK from the USA, we came across the Noah's Ark Inn. Visited on a dreadful rainy day and the roads were a bit narrow and flooded but it was well worth the trip. Arriving at 11:30 we received a lovely, friendly welcome as we enjoyed tea and coffee on really comfy sofas by the fire. Before being seated at our table for lunch. An excellent variety of gluten free options for me as a coeliac, I chose the haddock and chips which was crispy, freshly cooked and hot. I hate when restaurants serve cold food. The rest of my party enjoyed the lunchtime steak and onion ciabatta with chips and the chicken wings starter and burger for my son. We were all delighted with our meals and the Noah's Ark Inn and staff. We travelled from Farnborough, Hampshire but will definitely return. Thanks for a lovely welcome and a delicious lunch 10/10

Lovely welcome, excellent service and tasty food - all in the most picturesque setting, characterful old inn on the village green. Sit next to the fire if you can.

I get that it's Michelin starred or whatever but the food is too fancy and overpriced. Pumpkin bisgue with seafood and chorizo was a basically a plate of soup. It was missing its advertised 'parmesan croute' - we asked for it, only to be served with a half piece of sliced granary with a bit of melted cheese on top. Hardly haute cuisine. Tandoori chicken with lentil and spinach salad, mango yogurt dressing - the chicken was moist but not very spicy, and the salad was WARM (thought that died out in the 90s) with the yogurt stirred through, so horribly curdled. Quite disgusting. You'd be better off sticking, as others in my party did, to plainer things like burger or beer battered fish and chips. The service was slow and at times snappy - when we asked where our ciabatta was we got a dusty answer about it being heated up - had they not got the oven on?? - and a requested pint of orange juice and soda we had to fetch from the bar. On the plus side, they understand gluten free and will explain what dishes on the menu are acceptable or can be adapted. But for what they charge, very disappointing

We were celebrating my daughter's 40th birthday with the family including 3 lively young children. We were given the most amazing welcome by Charlotte who was efficiency personified and endeared herself immediately to the children. Equally, Michael and Naz (hope spelled correctly) were fantastic. The atmosphere was relaxing and the food outstanding. Even to accomodating our wishes to bring in the surprise birthday cake alight with candles. The whole team at Noah's Ark made a special day even more so. Huge grateful thanks.

In deepest countryside, the Noahs Ark sits opposite a picturesque green and offers a great bar and a very pleasant dining room with first class food. We had a truffled venison carpaccio, which was perfectly prepared and generous. A main course of pumpkin bisque with seafood and octopus was delicate and gorgeous, another main of gnocchi with ceps and wild mushrooms was delicious and full of flavour. I had a home made burger with thick cut, crunchy chips and salad which was devoured very quickly. Desserts of pear tatin and raspberry sorbet were all excellent. We drank beer, but there is an excellent wine list. Lovely friendly service. We were accompanied by a 4 month old and a Border terrier, who were also made welcome!

I've been to The Noah's Ark Inn on more than one occassion and have not been disappointed. It's got bags of character and is located in the heart of the beautiful village. The service is freindly and the food was lovely.

It's totally worth it. Perfect dinning setting. Service and food faultless on our visit. Happy to test beer before ordering. Sgroppino at the end of the meal when there is no room for dessert - wonderfully refreshing.

The day we visited the pub we had a warm friendly welcome and the whole place resonated with a friendly atmosphere. The Noahs Ark is clearly an old pub but tastefully modernised with a small bar area, a larger separate room and a small room behind the bar which has a large inglenock fireplace and a log fire.

We were coming without announcement and found no place but by chance of retraction when we were leaving we were able to stay.

The menu, a delightful concoction of both classic and contemporary dishes and the staff are as delightful as a well-brewed cup of earl grey. In summary, a splendid sojourn that is positively worth a visit!

Another one to get a parking fine. I picked up a take-away and had a pint while waiting. To be fair the food was ok for what it was, and I would consider going back but having just received the £100 fine…….: I didn’t see any signs and certainly wasn’t warned when I went into the pub. Shocking behaviour!!! Is the pub on a share of profit scheme???
