My partner and I had Saturday lunch here and had a fabulous time. Every single course was perfect!! We chose the tasting menu and (even with a couple of extra dietary requirements) neither of us encountered any misstep. If we had to pick favourites, the mushroom canapé, all elements of the duck main and the 'mango cheesecake' dessert were truly outstanding. Thank you to the chefs and whole team for creating such a wonderful experience

I'll start by saying that I can be disappointed by many hospitality/restaurants. Not this time. Really wonderful food, the beef main course was faultless, the other dishes excellent. All dishes served to Michelin star quality, accompanied by a reasonably priced wine selection. Very relaxed atmosphere, no over attentive service, great village to explore. Beautiful food, very tasty, well presented in a lovely environment. Whats not to love? Highly recommended.

Once again an enjoyable meal at the Fig Tree. The service was good with just the right amount of time between courses. Chef was very happy to adjust my main course as I have an allergic reaction to scallops. Having owned a house in a wine growing region of France for 10 years we both opted for English wines which compared very well against their gallic counterparts. My one small gripe was that with my coffee it would have been nice to have a petit four or chocolate as an accompaniment. This is pretty standard in restaurants these days especially ones that possibly aspire to a Michelin star. As I said, "it's the little things that matter".

World class fare for a fair price. We thoroughly enjoyed my birthday lunch today, washed down with a cheeky red for a lazy afternoon of mild insobriety. Of particular note were the complementary hors d'oeuvres, bursting with flavour and texture to set the stage for what was to come. The onion and thyme bread with homemade butter was outstanding, and my starter of heritage beetroot tart marginally trumped the lamb main owing to its simple decadence. The atmosphere was not important since we were alone for most of the meal. Bonus! Loved it all.

We are visiting from Florida and my aunt and uncle took us here for lunch. THE FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. Our party of five people agreed it was some of the best food we’ve eaten, including internationally. Not one thing on any of our plates was a misstep. This is no exaggeration. If you are on the fence about eating here, do yourself a favor and just go. You will not regret it. Thank you for wonderful dining experience.

On a quiet dank Wednesday night we turned up for the first time since the pandemic began. How lovely to get such a beautiful meal and such warm efficient service. The chef did not once lose sight of his clean tasty elegant vibe. It was the very definition of a treat. All our dietary quirks were catered for and no-one felt that they were getting a worse deal than the others. I can wholeheartedly endorse the Orange Abbey Cocktail in fact we could have endorsed it several times over but wisely decided to stay sober enough to appreciate the cooking.

I was lucky enough to be invited to a work event where we booked the entire restaurant for 32 members of staff for a 7 course tasting menu with wine flight. Immediately impressive, The Fig Tree is a pretty restaurant on the High Street in Hurst which feels warm and welcoming to visit. We were greeted with sparkling wine which was topped up by the wonderful owners and paired with exquisite canapes. We then sat for a leisurely dinner where each and every course was delectable in flavour and beautiful to look at. As a pescatarian I was well catered for and each wine serve worked well with each course. The cheese coure was generous shared between four with local cheeses and biscuits and the dessert wines were the best I'd ever tasted. The staff were incredibly attentive while not being over bearing and I will definitely be returning for a more intimate affair with one or two friends as it had such a lovely atmosphere.

We have previously eaten here for lunch, so decided to try the evening tasting menu and certainly was not disappointed, absolutely tremendous. Service was great, good pace of courses and the wine pairing was really well paired with the food. Staff were all knowledgeable about the wine and food and whilst they were full, we were still made to feel as if we were the only ones they were serving, which is a great skill. We have experienced many tasting menus across the world and usually there’s at least one course where you feel you would have happily not eaten, but not this time, every course was extremely good, we also added the cheese course, which was a great move too. Exceptional experience, shocked they do not have a Michelin star. We have already booked to go back.

My fist visit to the Fig Tree three years ago made a huge impression - and now, my third visit may be my last.I’ve struggled greatly with how to rate the experience because - make no mistake - the food is really, really good. But you shouldn’t leave a three course lunch hungry. The tininess of the portions smacks of meanness, that no amount of “ooh, that’s tasty” makes up for. It makes the place FEEL like it’s about the money more than it is about the food. I’d rather pay more and be fed properly. This is a shame when the food is so good. I hope this is seen as constructive as the Fig Tree could be on the cusp of something really special…but this wasn’t quite it.

A simple tasting menu in theory but each mouthful is delicious, interesting flavours and combinations that work so well. Very accommodating of individual quirks, adjusting the menu for pescatarians with no fuss at all.

Went to the Fig Tree last night with my wife and two friends as they re-opened their doors post Covid 19 lockdown. What an absolute treat. Food first class and Covid 19 measures in place reassuringly positive, which in no way affected the ambience. But lets get back to the food !! The menu comprised 6 courses each finely balanced with the other. All of the courses were a delectable delight, that said the Sussex Wagyu of beef and the South Coast turbot were just beyond compare. Michelin quality without breaking the bank! Well done Fig Tree we will be back.

I decided to write a review of last Saturday's takeaway as the food was outstanding and very good value. I had a generous portion of gazpacho soup, followed by the Moroccan spiced lamb and a cheesecake dessert. It's fair to say that takeaways of the quality on offer here are rare. The main course required 20 minutes heating. This is made clear on the takeaway menu. In fact, this is fine as it means the food can be refrigerated at home and eaten a little later. I look forward to my next trip to either collect or eat there when the restaurant reopens.

What a treat, we had a ‘takeaway’ from the Fig Tree this evening. It was the most delicious meal and very easy to finish off in the oven. We’re both so full up. 3 courses for £20 is such amazing value for such a good quality tasty dinner. Thank you Very much, looking for award to seeing what’s on the menu for next week!!

Really enjoyed our takeaway last Friday. It was to celebrate my wife's birthday and it was great to be able to enjoy The Fig Trees superb cuisine even in these difficult times. Our meal was ready and waiting when we arrived and although some heating up is required when you get home we were provided with some very simple cooking instructions so everything was ready to eat in next to no time. We are great fans of this restaurant and have been regular dinners since James and Jodie opened. Many thanks to you both.

Michelin quality food for the price of a pub meal! As good as Paul Ainsworth’s starred restaurant in padstow. A lovely couple with great staff. Seriously the best restaurant in Sussex if you want to impress or be impressed. The first place I will go to when this lockdown ends

This restaurant normally serves michelin quality, fine dining food in a lovely understated restaurant in Hurst. But today we sampled their takeaway menu designed for these unprecedented times when sitting in a restaurant is too dangerous. Divine pheasant croquettes, stunning lasagne and top end fish pie. Michelin quality comfort food. Amazing. I could have been at the original Ivy Restaurant - it was that good, if not better. Thankyou guys for yet another fabulous meal. We will be back. Stay safe and see you soon.

Wow! What an incredible find! We are so happy that we came across this place and were blown away by the whole experience! The venue, the incredible food and drink, and warm and friendly welcome were all outstanding. We were a group of 5 friends who had gone for a belated Christmas meal out, and it was like we had our own private dining experience. Rich and Paul were amazing hosts, and the 6 course dinner with accompanying wine flight was beautifully presented, all explained really well and tasted incredible! It was lovely to chat about the food with Rich after the meal and hear about their wonderful plans for this stunning venue. We are definitely excited to return and enjoy some of the other wonderful experiences this amazing place has to offer! Thank you Rich and Paul!
