The Bridge Inn in Horsham

Very hostile to young families with young children. The manager/owner clearly doesn’t want young children in her pub and our party actually left very upset by her comments. We had 4x toddlers with us as it was a family meet up and whilst we did you very best to clean up what was on the floor, the manager said it was ‘the most mess she had ever seen in her life’. It was essentially the remininants of a few squashed carrots and peas. All I can say is, I think she has had a very sheltered life if that’s the most mess she had ever seen. I am all for being respectful to hospitality staff, but without a mop and bucket this was the best we could possibly do. No nappy changing facilities. Food was below average.

Very good and filling meal with attentive service.

Stopped by spontaneously on Easter Sunday after a long walk in the area. Despite it being a very busy day, the staff were lovely and offered us a table for 2 inside. The weather was good so we sat outside and enjoyed fish and chips and the most delicious Ploughman's I've had for sometime. The staff were lovely, cheerful and helpful. No wonder this place is so popular.

Called up last minute for a table on Good Friday and managed to secure the last available one. Our first time eating inside and the Bridge Inn doesn’t disappoint. A beautiful setting both inside and out. Welcoming and friendly staff. A wonderful atmosphere and ambiance. The extensive menu offers something for every palate. Chose the sharing baked Camembert to start, with the macaroni cheese and pancetta ham for myself and the Lebanese stew for my lady. The food is incredible. It is meticulously and freshly prepared, wonderfully presented and perfectly cooked. I cannot recommend The Bridge Inn enough. If you can’t take a date, take a mate. We will be back again very soon.

Had fish and chips, superb. Would definitely recommend.

The food was excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful , can't wait to go back

We had a thoroughly enjoyable lunch at this pub. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful even allowing us to eat earlier than we had booked. The food was excellent and far exceeded my expectations. The perfect ploughman’s, delicious steak pie and fabulous sticky toffee pudding and bread and butter pudding. My husband was extremely happy as plenty of custard for once !! I would thoroughly recommend this pub if you are in the area . Great ambience and decor in the pub too .

Such brilliant friendly service and the most welcome, delicious Sunday roast on a wet and cold February weekend. Beautifully cooked and generous supply of vegetables, very good value. Thank you!

Top notch pub food, cosy atmosphere and lovely staff. The lunch menu was excellent, and the chips were fantastic.

Amazing food! The owner dave is very accommodating and extremely polite, would recommend to everybody

Really nice food, lovely staff. Nice setting. Not bad value for money, £15/£16 a dish.

Delicious food, lovely service & great space. For years I've driven straight past this pub - so very glad a friend suggested a meal there as it is a real gem. Can't wait to revisit.

We live locally and this is such a fabulous country pub, the staff, food & atmosphere are always exceptional! Very beautiful interior, always a log fire lit! After multiple visits we cannot recommend this establishment highly enough! Thank you Tash, Dave and staff for consistently providing such a wonderful experience x

We had often driven past but today decided to go for lunch. Wow, what a place! Lovely interior and simply fabulous food. I had macaroni cheese and it was creamy and delicious. My husband had chicken from the specials menu and said the sauce was divine. But the chocolate brownie was to die for! The best I’ve eaten in years. Brilliant service too, and my husband who walks with two sticks was treated like royalty. 10/10!

Nice place, but my main course was awful. It cost £62.75 for the 2 of us. Very expensive for what it was. Disappointed.

Excellent pub, excellent food, excellent staff, highly recommended

It's actually at Amberley, near the museum and station...well worth a visit.

Amazing food, had a great late lunch here, they were able to accommodate 5 people at short notice and the food was brilliant. Great service. Will be back for more in the sunshine

We met a local couple in St Michael's Churchyard and they recommended the Bridge Inn as serving good pub food. I feel they had downplayed the food and ambience as we found it superb. We arrived promptly at 12 noon and were welcomed in by a glowing fire and were seated nearby on a table for two. We enjoyed some lovely food, drinks and service. We would heartily recommend this dining experience and venue but you do need to book to avoid disappointment. We were lucky - I hope that you are too. December 29th 2023.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful experience at The Bridge Inn on New Year's Day! The roast was absolutely delicious—definitely one of the best we've had, with generous portions that left us satisfied. The roast potatoes were a standout! The staff were efficient and friendly, adding to the pleasant atmosphere. And the homemade crumble was a delightful treat to finish off the meal. Thank you to the team for a lovely dining experience!

Excellent, traditional pub beside the Arun River in Amberley. Beautiful decor inside, staff and friendly and attentive. Food was absolutely divine and reasonably priced for a county pub. Great selection of ale and wine, within walking distance of the amberley working museum so an ideal spot for food after a day out.

4 of us visited for dinner on November 29th & were not disappointed 😊👍. Well served by Emily throughout. Until next time.. 👍👍👍

Visited on the evening of November 29th. Warmly greeted by staff at the bar, then shown to our table by Emily who afforded us friendly service throughout the evening 👍👍.. 2 of the party of 4 had never dined with you before & as such were ready to be tempted by the varied menu 😊.. We all decided to go for 3 courses & it's safe to say, we all enjoyed everything that was placed in front of us. We plan to return in the not too distant future..😊👍

Good beer. Outstanding food, excellent service. Top marks

Nice service, but food was poor. Battered cod was tasteless, garden peas, not mushy. I had an upset belly for two days after eating here.

Excellent pub. Great food, service and atmosphere.

We enjoyed a great Sunday lunch at this lovely pub. The menu offered excellent choices at reasonable prices. The food was of a really good quality. The service was also very good. We will definitely return.

Food and service are really great. Roasts were amazing. Really fancied coffee after the meal to be told only milk was available with no alternative. Just left two of us disappointed 😞 Please stock alternatives as this was a letdown after such a lovely experience.

Wir waren vor ein paar Jahren bereits Gast in diesem Pub und sehr zufrieden. Daher sind wir auf unserer Reise mittags gezielt dorthin gefahren. Obwohl wir keinen Tisch reserviert hatten wurde unserer Familie von fünf Personen schnell eine Sitzmöglichkeit hergerichtet. Wir haben nur kleine Gerichte verzehrt, waren aber sehr zufrieden. Bestimmt kommen wir wieder hierhin.

Go here regularly, never disappoints

Netter uriger Pup. Habe hier spontan ein Mittagessen eingenommen. Wir kamen ohne Reservierung mit fünf Personen und es wurden uns sofort zwei Tische zusammengestellt. Das Essen war lecker, die Bedienung freundlich und die Atmosphäre typisch für einen britischen Pup.

We had a family meal here while out for a walk. Food came in a reasonable time and a decent size and price. Sometimes had difficulty catching the eye of staff. Draught beer and cider includes Stowford Press, Neck Oil and Proper Job which went down well. I had a halloumi burger which had a lovely amount of halloumi and it wasn't chewy but soft, great mix with pesto and peppers. Husband had steak and kidney suet pudding which was a favourite and the rest of the table had scampi (great big fat chips that were crispy and soft inside) and then mackerel pate and prawn cocktail (starters so they could justify dessert). The st Clements cheesecake was full of citrus but no orange and very creamy, otherwise didn't pack much flavour Toilets clean and well looked after

Enjoyed excellent service and lovely food today the dog friendly pub is not to be missed. Today had the lamb burger from the specials board best pub grub I've tasted in years we will be back soon well done total delight 👌

Didn't have any food so can't comment on that but lovely place and great staff. Very friendly.

Had a leisurely lunch and drinks at this pub. The location is great and the service was as it should be.' There was a good choice of beers and dink, as well as a varied menu. OUr food was really tasty. Look forward to returning

Great service from the whole team at the Bridge Inn. we were in Sussex for the motor racing at Goodwood. we had a meal & drinks on 3 occasions over the weekend. all the staff and the food was top quality. highly recommended. will be going again next year.

We ate here whilst visiting friends, and would like to say the food, staff and hosts were really friendly and helpful. Great menu, food was plentiful and very tasty. The place feels very homely and would certainly recommend

Have been to the Bridge Inn for dinner the last 3 days and it gas been the best meals out we have had in donkeys years. The food was first class. Always hot, served by very friendly and polite staff. They very helpful and accommodating. The Sunday roast was one of the best I have ever had out. Thank you all very much.

Fabulous menu with lots of choice. Excellent & friendly service. My pub of choice in this area, will go back again soon.

Ate here after cycling SDW from Winchester - very friendly staff and good food.

Nice pub ,lovely staff ,great food .....A good evening out The food here is always good Get out here for lunch and have the ploughman's 👍👍👍

Amazing food and service will definitely be going back

Happened across this pub on our random travels through the English countryside. Stopped in for lunch and we were really happy with the food and service. The drinks selection was excellent as well, so all in all, a great lunch stop - highly recommended.

A pleasant place and friendly efficient service. Didn't eat but menu looked OK. Will go again...

Love this little pub used to go when I was younger went back for a visit and was the same, amazing staff, helpful and kind. Would visit again.

Great pub. Turned up late on Sunday lunchtime and they still had space, even came and offered us space inside, as it was a bit miserable outside but we wanted the fresh air. Great food and service. Lovely inside too.

Visited several times, staff are super friendly. The food is served in good portions and is equally delicious.

The food was amazing! Tasty halloumi burger with a decent side salad and sweet potato fries and a very good Mac and cheese also served with bread and salad! Service was good!

Delicious meal,staff were fantastic and couldn't have made the evening better, thank you so much and will definitely be back

We went for dinner recently for our wedding anniversary. We had an excellent meal, excellent service and very good house wine and a gluten free menu was available! Amazing! I completely agree with another recent reviewer where we have several indifferent meals and terrible service in other local pubs. Thank goodness for The Bridge!

Again as it's been nearly a year since we last had lunch there,after a trip around Arundel before hand we then went on to the Bridge inn. This is a lovely warm and very friendly place and so quaint,and we were made welcome on our arrival. We were shown to our table,drinks ordered and served, our food order taken, it was nice to soak up the atmosphere whilst we waited. Our meal was then served to us and again were not disappointed, I had one of the chefs specials, a mouthwatering fish pie,and Rosemary had the macaroni cheese which she enjoyed immensely. It was a throughly enjoyable meal. May we pass on our thanks to the staff at the Bridge Inn for the warm welcome and our lovely lunch From Ray, Rosemary, and our dog Susie

Don’t go as often as we should. This is a good honest boozer with good pub grub. It has no pretensions to be anything else and why should it. Nicely kept, and a good range of beer. Friendly staff. Competitively priced. Cannot think of what else you would want from a pub.

Once again great food and service at The Bridge Inn. Lovely food served in beautiful surroundings by a very friendly team

Of the two village pubs in Amberley/Houghton this pub probably edges it in terms of the quality of the food and the service. It’s hard to beat sitting outside on a warm summer’s evening. It’s visited by lots of walkers which speaks for itself. The pub inside is very traditional but I think this is a real summer pub with a good menu.

Wanted to comment on the customer service at this pub which was very good and was a welcome change to what we often receive elsewhere which is poor and disinterested. We received a warm welcome and all the staff treated us promptly and efficiently . It was also nice to find that the menu advertised online was the menu on offer on the day in situ . We had a lovely relaxed lunch.

My wife and I visited the Bridge Inn for date night, after many months of passing it and saying we wanted to give it a try. All in all, I’m very pleased we did. The service was unintrusive, food was delicious and location beautiful. Would definitely recommend.

What a delightful place to have lunch - great ambience & location, very tasteful decor, warm welcome, excellent service, reasonable prices and really good food. What more could you wish for?

Great plougman's and next to the train station

Didnt eat here but the food looks delicious lovely Garden and parking on site.

Brilliant little gem. Relaxed atmosphere, delicious food and reasonably priced. Menu is a typical pub menu with enough interesting options to make it a bit exciting. Halloumi fritters with honey and Greek yoghurt are to die for! Lovely staff. Will be back.

Stopped for a cheeky sunny weekend ploughman's and was most impressed!! Good selection on the menu, friendly efficient staff and lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommended if you're in the area. Will be back to try a burger or the chicken, palma ham and cheese pasta 👍

Great food. Got a good seat outside in the sun. Going back for Sunday lunch

We came to dine here twice while staying at the Riverside Lodges just over the road. The food and service was flawless, the portions were generous and all our meals were fresh and delicious! We had the beef burger, halloumi brioche, stuffed chicken pasta and...

We came to dine here twice while staying at the Riverside Lodges just over the road. The food and service was flawless, the portions were generous and all our meals were fresh and delicious! We had the beef burger, halloumi brioche, stuffed chicken pasta and sea bass, plus some starters. The food and drinks are very good value for the price you pay. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We look forward to visiting again soon!

After a walk round Amberley, my friend and I called in at The Bridge Inn for lunch. We sat in the garden as had dogs with us, which was a lovely enclosed, sunny area. We were very warmly welcomed and looked after immediately. Really great...

Delicious food, a warm, friendly welcome and excellent service. I was most impressed and hope to be back soon.

Stopped here for lunch while walking the SDW. Food/Beer/Service/Atmosphere were 1st class. FOOD TIMES Wednesday and Thursday: 12 to 2.30pm, 6pm - 8:30pm Friday and Saturday: All day from 12 to 8.30pm Sunday: 12 to 4pm Bank Holidays: 12 to 3pm

I had the pleasure of finding the bridge inn on my way through Amberley on the south downs way. A beautiful traditional pub with a lovely garden to enjoy a cold beer and a lovely meal. All the the staff, without exception were so nice, friendly, helpful. The burger I had was delicious. I could happily have stayed all day:)

I went with friends to this wonderful pub to spend a Sunday afternoon, thoroughly enjoying the food, service, the company, and the music. I felt that it’s high time I left a review, having been a regular attendee on the music Sunday afternoons once a...

Stopped off here on our way back from Weald & Downland Museum. Really lovely food and great service from very friendly staff. Would recommend.

Have visited the Bridge several times and have never been disappointed. Friendly and helpful service and welcoming to dogs. The beer is unfailingly excellent, as is the food. Best to book if you're planning to eat at the weekend.

Great stop on the South downs route. Stopped here for lunch after crunching some miles on the bikes, fantastic Ploughman's and great service, had Beavertown on tap which was an added bonus. Would certainly recommend and look forward to going back.

Still and excellent pub for atmosphere, service, dining and real ales. St Austel Proper Job, Langham Hip-hop and Harvey's best bitter were on, all beers I like. Not cheap though.

Excellent food and staff would highly recommend the Sunday lunch, best to book early as very popular

We called in after a long day cycling from Winchester on our way to Steyning, but due to lack of daylight we called in for food and a drink. We were very warmly welcomed by Natasha and staff. We ordered food, which was amazing. Natasha...

Always a joy to stop off here. The food is always excellent. Have stopped many times and never been disappointed. All the staff here are absolutely wonderful, always smiley and happy which sadly can be hard to find these days. The food is of the...

Lovely food, great service. What more do you need?

Wir waren spontan am Abend hier. Das Essen hat allen sehr gut geschmeckt, der Service war super (schnell und freundlich) und das Ambiente sehr nett. Neben einer gut sortierten Karte gab es auch ein Kids-Menu. Toll! Vielen Dank!

This is a lovely pub, great food and friendly staff. We stopped here on the way down to Chichester for the Easter weekend. This pub is a must if in Amberley.

Tried phoning this pub, but no reply at around 1pm when one would have thought they would be open. 8 of us were looking to lunch, but could only email them so gave up, as lunch required that day

This was a great experience. Not having visited the Bridge Inn for years I was so pleased to receive such a warm, courteous greeting from all the staff. As for the food it was wonderful. Hot, well cooked and simply delicious and if you're thinking...

Great atmosphere, lovely staff and good food 👌

Nice cosy pub very friendly staff

Great food, lovely homely atmosphere, and super friendly staff. Would most definitely recommend.

Popped in for a spontaneous lunch and drink- really welcoming, professional staff, tasty ploughmans and a nice cold pint. Spotlessly clean, roaring fire...perfect for a quiet lunch. Thanks.

Lovely, friendly pub; perfectly kept ales; lovely lunches. We had cod and chips; scampi and the fish pie - absolutley no complaints there: proper dill and capers in the pie, lovely tartare with the cod - and our friend with the scampi seemed perfectly happy....

Excellent friendly pub, catered for a large group with a couple of dogs (we did book first). Food was really lovely with great menu choice. Would definitely recommend. We loved it.

Went in with my wife early one Sunday afternoon and had the best lamb roast I've ever had from a pub. The meat, the veg and the roast potatoes were amazing. We even had extra potatoes gravy on the side, so much food and so delicious. Well worth a visit any day of the week, but especially Sunday 😁

Nice original pub, beautiful open fire ❣️. And to add to it, There was a chess table ❣️ good refreshments and game👍

Had a very nice meal here with the daughter and our dogs, needs to be booked in advance

Really really great pub, the staff were so so lovely and helpful, and this macaroni cheese was amazing, exactly what I wanted and really really tasty, the perfect stop over!

Lovely pub- looks attractive inside and they had a fire going which is always nice in an old pub. We were well looked after by the landlady. The food was piping hot & looked and tasted great. You can walk along the road and into...

Once again a lovely meal in this dog friendly country pub. Piping hot food on nice hot plates. Very friendly staff always make us feel welcome, can’t praise it enough!

Lovely friendly country pub in picturesque area serving delicious food. We had the fish and chips and it was huge! Very helpful staff. Dog friendly too. Enjoyed our visit

Sunday roast was ok but really disappointed with the parking. Anyone with a disabled person with them needs to be aware of the small car park. There is a large car park, unoccupied on a Sunday but not allowed to park there. Staff very helpful.

Lovely pub very friendly, great food xx

Gorgeous food, lovely staff, pleasant surroundings, found by accident but will definitely go back.

1st visit - we’ll be back! Randomly dropped in as hungry after day out in Arundel. Warm welcome, nice fire, brilliant service, great menu - teens to OAP please. Even my mother in law loved it! Lovely Christmas feel - magic.

Well worth a visit, warm and welcoming.

Stopped in after a walk on the downs. Lovely bet and a baguette to reward my efforts. My friends had the macaroni chees Wroxham I was told was fab. A lovely welcoming pub, with an ambience to keep you. Definitely one of my favourite pubs.
