Great pub and great food. Absolutely lovely. The only thing the pub lacks is a slightly larger carpark, but that’s easier said than done.

Great pub. Very warm welcome and excellent service thoughout. Delicious food and very generous portions. Just wish they hadn't had the radiators on in May - it was a bit too toasty! We'll definitely be back though.

We had a delightful dinner at the crown! My main meal was a chickenless pie and it was lovely, very good options for vegetarians. Big portions, could do with some more choice on the kids menu. We had an attentive and charismatic waiter, very helpful. For pudding I had a chocolate fondant which was delicious, but too big as it was very rich. We all really enjoyed dinner and I'm sure we will return!

What can I say….. The Crown never fails to impress but today’s Christmas menu was utterly delicious and hands down the best chocolate fondant I’ve ever eaten. Everything we had was totally delicious and the portions were very generous! The pub itself is wonderfully cosy and the staff are always so welcoming and friendly, and the beautiful log fires are just stunning. If you’re looking for somewhere for a special lunch this place is absolutely the one.

We visited with the family on a Fri evening. Despite being very busy the service and food was fantastic, with the a buzzy atmosphere throughout. A few of our group chose the fish platter to share and this was a great option, with plenty of tasty choices. The menu was extensive and nothing too much trouble for the staff. High recommended and we will certainly be returning soon.

We were very staunch supporters of The Crown but due I think to staff shortages, the offering both in service and food really went down. On one occasion, 35 minutes just to get drinks. We therefore stayed clear until today, a Monday. Normally pubs struggle with Mondays but there were quite a few customers. There was only one staff member (Sam) tending the bar and restaurant but he did very well, kept on apologising which was not necessary. He advised that it was a short-menu due to staff shortage but all our choices were there. When the food arrived, it was piping hot and the quality excellent. The portion size was also very good and we left full and very satisfied. I do hope this is a return for The Crown to the top league.

We are regulars here and always enjoy the food and the personalised service, however this evening was beyond disappointing. On arrival there was a power cut, obviously this was completely unavoidable and nothing to do with the pub itself. Lyndsey, the owners partner, was incredibly frosty and clearly stressed and was quite rude when I asked why she had not called us to say there was an issue. He response was, ‘ We had bigger issues’ Having let this go, the power came back and we enjoyed our dinner. Not the usual 5star but still nice. When we paid, we left a very reasonable tip as we had totally appreciated that they had had a difficult evening. I decided to mention to the older gent that I had been disappointed at the start of the night but they had turned the night around. His reaction was awful, he took it as a personal attack and was beyond rude. Lyndsay was as dismissive. When they eventually got Phil out to chat with us it was like they just did not give a damn about loyalty. Sad to say we will never return and i wish we had not left a tip at all. Am happy for the pub that they obviously have so much business they can throw away regulars!

We are regular customers at the Crown and always have excellent food and service. So when my 80th birthday came round this October we decided to have a celebration there with a buffet for 35 guests. Not used it for this before. Well the spread and the service was outstanding with all my guests saying how great the food and the service was - all in a lovely 17th century pub. We booked the main restaurant area just for us so we were nicely separated from the main bar and it worked a treat. A truly memorable occasion. Thank you Lindsey and your team!!

Visited today whilst staying in a nearby hotel. We were greeted by two friendly young ladies who dealt with us professionally throughout our visit. The food was tasty , well presented , generously proportioned and reasonably priced. It is obviously popular with locals as it was filling up quite nicely by just 12.30. If I could make one suggestion is that to change the pictures on your website as it doesn’t do your establishment justice. I would certainly be a regular if I lived in the area. Keep it up folks and thank you.

Four of us came for Sunday Lunch today, on a wet and very windy lunchtime. We were sat at 12 midday and didn't leave until 3pm. Three of us had the Roast beef and one had the chicken. The food is just so so good! The portions are healthy and we were also given leeks in a cheese sauce at no extra cost. We all took our time and cleared our plates, which is a first for us. For dessert we had the cheese board which is enough for two people plus the sticky toffee pudding as well as ice cream and coffee. The staff did not rush us, although very busy and people had come and gone whilst we were there. If you are indecisive about where to go for your roast then look no further than the Crown as you will not be disappointed.

Went here with a group Sunday before last - had vegetable Wellington - delicious, no complaints at all. Went there the following Thursday with my sister as it was so nice on the Sunday. It was a disaster - vegetable Wellington pastry was soft and soggy, there was no broccoli as stated on menu, the peas were hard and the beans inedible. It would seem that it's pot luck which chef you get when you go.

I had been to this pub/restaurant a year or so ago and it had lost none of its charm and cosy, friendly atmosphere. There was seating outside and Inside the restaurant area was spotless and shining. They offered a good-sized menu with appetising dishes, both as standard main meals as well as sandwiches. These latter offered a good selection with generous portions. The cuisine is standard English pub food, obtained from local sources, and the service was prompt and efficient. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are available.

After driving past many times we decided it was time to try The Crown. We'd heard the food is good and it's fair to say it did not disappoint at all. Despite being next to a relatively busy road the beer garden at the bank feels quiet and secluded. The inside is full of character with plenty of seating. We were told there may be a bit of a wait for our food as there were two parties going on but we barely had to wait long at all. Both dishes were excellent quality with generous portions. Their menu is varied and there was at least 4 or 5 other options I wanted to go for. We've heard good things about their Sunday roasts, too, so we'll be back for that!

We arrived and waited at the bar for a while before ordering. There appeared to be only two members of staff serving at tables and doing the bar. We ordered food and were told 'we are so busy there will be a wait of 40 minutes', we were in no hurry so said ok. Looking around there was 2 tables at the bar occupied and 2 tables outside, but the restaurant looked busy. Surely these two staff were not doing all of this? It looked as if they were.

They opened early to allow us in and served us a superb lunch - two roast beef and two roast lamb meals with fluffy, light Yorkshire puddings, beautifully roasted potatoes and a mix of carrots, cabbage cauliflower, sugar snaps and broccoli in a thick tasty gravy. We strugged to finish this but then managed delicious possett, pannacotta and ice cream desserts. The service was immaculate and we were absolutedly delighted with the meal, staff and surroundings.

This was a birthday lunch so wanted it to be good and the food did not disappoint us although the service was a bit slow despite it not being very busy. Decided on mains and deserts as portions were good size. The pulled pork was tender but too much BBQ sauce overpowered the meat flavour which unfortunately spoilt it. The fries were terrific as dry and crispy. Fish pie also got the thumbs up.The vanilla creme brûlée was enormous as almost the size of dinner plate lovely !

This visit was a quick stop off as picking family up from Gatwick airport on Saturday very early. I had already checked the reviews on TA to also discover that the pub was dog friendly. Therefore a double result. A note to all travellers if your staying at a Travel Lodge and they say the pub is about 6 mins away. Check as to which Travel Lodge your staying at, as we were 15 mins away ♀️. As I now know that there are 2... Never mind as we were greeted by friendly staff and a very quiet relaxed cat in a box on the bar. Choice of 2 menus as we had our dog we were in the bar area. Food was delicious . Service was quick we were so hungry I forgot to take any pictures. My partner chose the mussels in cider & bacon which were delicious. Highly recommended, would visit again if we were in the area.

We went to The Crown, Turners Hill for lunch on our way home from the Ardingly Antiques Fair. We ordered a Shared Seafood platter for two and took our seats in a most pleasant outdoor area overlooking the countryside. After nearly half an hour wait we were not particularly impressed, but when our lunch did turn up it was magnificent! Piles of smoked salmon, a delicious fish pate, garlic King prawns on skewers, a mountain of Whitebait, a small crusty brown loaf each, three sauces/dips and piles of salad. We soon forgot the wait because the food more than made up for it. We shall return!

Regardless, we were served very quickly and although out of sight around th3 corner, Molly and Andy kept checking on us for drinks and food orders. The food was piping hot, the sharing Seafood Sampler was great value for money and the deserts.... superb. Our taste buds are so lucky to have The Crown on our doorstep - sadly it doesn’t do much for my wasteline.

Met friends at The Crown this week. Always a sure bet, nice atmosphere good service. I had Ceasar Salad, I think probably the best one I can remember. Really good. Will be back soon

Very delightful place. Very warm, cosy and welcoming. A bar and restaurant that's spacious, couple, group or family orientated!

Stopped in for dinner at random on a day trip. The menu is extensive and has a lot of choice. We chose burgers, which were the impressively huge & tasty. The chicken pie & kids meals were also tasty. The kids chicken nuggets weren’t made from typical processed chicken but tenderloins. Lovely staff and nice atmosphere. A beer garden to enjoy in good weather.

My coffee experience failed at the first hurdle. £4.95 for a flat white. A coffee that could be "enjoyed" over looking a dusty car park, or from a hard looking interior with no atmosphere whatsoever. This is just nonsense. From two previous experiences I had looked forward to sitting on the balcony overlooking the vineyard. What a let down. I believe it is a legal requirement for traders to display prices. Then is none on show for consumers to make an informed decision.

The witch is a lovely pub with good food and great staff. I celebrated my birthday there recently. Everyone was very welcoming and patient, with 17 of us procrastinating over what to have. There were some nice vegan options for myself and my partner and everyone enjoyed there meals. 5 stars 🌟

Popped in here for a bacon and sausage baguette. Was very disappointed in the baguette. I expected more in it for the money I paid. Which with a coke was over 7 pound and all I got was 1 sausage and one and a bit rasher of bacon. Not value for money in my opinion.

Just paid £4.40 for a pint of apple juice poured straight from the carton. When enquired further I was told in a one word answer inflation from the bar keep. After a second look at the menu apple juice doesn't have a price nor labeled on the menu. Just make sure you enquire the price before ordering anything.
