On holiday in the area and on Saturday we had an evening meal at the Beaconsfield arms. The landlord and lady made us feel most welcome. This pub is a little gem. If i lived in the area, this would be my Local ! The service we had was brilliant. Our Drinks were cold and our meals were cooked to perfection and piping hot..All our food was freshly cooked and very generous in portions. We sat outside as the evening was hot. We enjoyed our meals so much in the relaxed atmosphere that we went back for our Sunday lunch. Again,our meals were freshly cooked and service was second to none...If your in the area and your thirsty or hungry.Give the Beaconsfield a try. I'm sure you wont be disappointed. You will receive a very warm welcome. The quality of food is top drawer. Hospitality at its finest.

Very impressed with quality of food. I had steak and kidney pudding which was full of meat and gravy and also very hot. Lots of vegetables which I love and mashed potatoes. Would definitely recommend. My husband had the curry which again was hot and tasty. Very good portions. The sticky toffee pudding was delicious with a good portion of custard. The staff were communicative and friendly. They had 3 lovely dogs behind the bar which were quiet and friendly. All in all I would highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

These guys are awesome. We turned up to a few locals at the bar having a cheeky pint and a friendly lady to sit and serve us the best fish n chips in what I can describe in a very long time. She offered us the food menu to look at and took our drinks and food order. Most of us ordered fish n chips. A few minutes later we could see the chef emerge from the kitchen with a bowl to pour some ale, I knew instantly he was making us fresh beer batter for our fish. Say no more, food cooked with love - Fish batter was crispy,cooked to perfection and tasted amazing with the homemade mushy peas and crispy chips served from what I believe is a husband and wife Team was just out of this world. I'd like to say a massive thank you, you made our adventure Into other pastures so much more comforting. We will see you again for roast dinner Sunday.

We are staying locally for a week’s holiday and have just had a wonderful roast dinner here with our dog Jack. The food was served lovely and hot, plenty of it and cooked so well. The chocolate brownie was the best I have ever had. My husband chose the sticky toffee pudding and he said it was so light and tasty. Coupled with the very pleasant girls at the bar and the very welcoming landlady, we are looking forward to another dinner later this week. Thank you so much, we’ve had a most enjoyable experience.

What a lovely pub and landlord and Landlady! We had our regular swim at a nearby pool but didn't have anywhere to go to after for a meal together as most pubs stopped doing food by the time we were able to get dry. But this lovely landlord, who is also the chef agreed to do our meals a bit after time and what a fab meal we all had the famous pie, mash and veg all cooked to perfection with lashings of nice gravy and a pie crammed full of meat!! They had stoked the fire and sat us on nearby table to warm giving us all a lovely cheery welcome as we came in from the cold. I'm taking my hubbie and son back soon for pie and mash and we will be able to bring our dog too ...can't wait!!

During our celebration weekend with all of our family of 19 at nearby Horham we ate Sunday lunch here. The table for our large group was set up in a private area away from the main bar area which allowed us to enjoy ourselves without disturbing others. The welcome was perfect with bunting decorations and a surprise bottle of Cava supplied to us by the Landlord. It was dog friendly, which was a requirement, as we had a well behaved dog with us and behind the bar were 2 other large but very well behaved dogs. Fortunately we went straight into the main Roast which comprised a choice of Beef, Pork and Turkey or a mix, numerous fresh vegetables, big Yorkshire puddings and lovely roast potatoes. The ample supply of gravy had a lovely flavour. A nice surprise were plates of Pork scratchings supplied as a starter. A variety of home made sweets were offered and taken up by most of us who had room. Being a real ale drinker, a good supply of local ales were available and those I tried were in perfect condition Service was excellent including keeping our glasses refreshed throughout. The cost was very reasonable and everybody when leaving felt they had a fulfilling meal. Well done to everybody at the Beaconsfield Arms and if we are ever in the area again another visit will be necessary

We felt like valued customers because they took an interest in us, and provided a good service. They changed the TV channel for us, fed our dog, and helped us find a local hotel after we were let down by one we had previously booked.
