Visited this place for a pint while exploring this beautiful town. Atmosphere was nice but not service. Staff were disappeared on counter so waited to be served. Plenty of seatings inside and outdoor. I grab my drink and sit out to enjoy. Btw they offer live music every Friday and Saturday from morning which is good if you are fancy.

Una situación muy inusual. Estoy seguro que fue un mal sueño. Tal vez en otro momento todo salga bien, pero mi grupo no volverá a averiguarlo.

Qué servicial personal dando consejos sobre las opciones de menú. Teníamos las patatas fritas con halloumi y pimientos - compartir una porción era más que suficiente entre nosotros. Bien presentado y un lugar agradable y acogedor para descansar un rato y refrescarse. Volveremos, gracias a todos.

This is supposedly a Hall and Woodhouse pub but the beers from this brewery are rarely available. The pumps are there but not the beers. Now the weather is colder customers are greeted to a cold public house. No fire, no heating, no H&W beers on pump. Consider is this somewhere you choose to spend your money?

Visitamos aquí temprano una tarde entre semana después de ir de compras. Al pasar por el cercano pub Green King en busca de un pub mejor con mejor cerveza nos topamos con The Fountain. El servicio en el bar era amable. Las opciones de cerveza disponibles no eran tan buenas, pero la pinta de tejón era lo suficientemente sabrosa como para lavar un paquete de papas fritas. Nos sentamos en el asiento de la ventana delantera, pero había sofás y un fuego real más dentro del bar que parecía un poco más acogedor. Lo suficientemente decente pub no le importaría visitar de nuevo.

Apparently the oldest pub in Chichester, a Hall and Woodhouse pub so Badger beer. The Tanglefoot is superb and all the ales are kept well. Great staff and a very interesting, historic building

Service and staff was good and all. Lovely old pub. One big theme though, dirty glass, dirty carpet and dirty tables. Place could do with a deep clean. If it was clean, it would be a 5 star review.

3 rd August 24 . Este es un buen pub, sin embargo, nuestra visita fue arruinada por el mal servicio al cliente. Entramos y cuando fui a pedir la señora dijo, oh, tengo que ir, volveré en un minuto. Luego me dejaron 10 minutos esperando. Finalmente reapareció y me sirvió. 25 minutos después, fui a buscar una segunda ronda y me hicieron esperar durante 10 minutos mientras ella trataba con un grupo de clientes que se agitaban indecisos sobre qué pedir. Entonces como era mi turno ella dijo, una vez más, oh tengo que ir de nuevo. Esperé 5 minutos y me rendí. Conclusión, buen pub pero mala gestión.

Normally a good pub but recently gone downhill with drug users in the toilets not the place to go to now. Staff are not helpful - one needs to go on a customer service course! ( streaked hair!) so rude accused us of pushing in when we’d been queuing for 15 mins ! Sad used to like going here not anymore !

One of the cozier spots in Chichester for a pint, they have some nice seating (especially the sofas) and good music, and the bartender who chatted to us about early 00s pop punk was really friendly!

Came here with my partner last Friday evening for a couple of drinks. This was the first time here in around 15 years and still has the same great vibe. Even had a live band and decent atmosphere. Couldn’t stay long as was driving. Nevertheless thoroughly enjoyed it and we will be back for sure!!

Absolutely disappointed. Had to wait ages for a member of staff to appear at the bar. Had to wait ages for our burger and chips so yes i had to order another 2 beers while waiting for our food. No central heating as the radiators weren't on as broken. The power points also not working had to ask bar staff if there was anywhere I could charge my phone and she replied yes but in the kitchen! Eventually the landlady appeared. My god did she look rough. Looked like she had been dragged through a hedge backwards she looked that scruffy. Her hair looked like it never seen a come or brush. Put it this way I've been better pubs than the fountain. I won't be returning as I don't like the pub! It's awful

Left Chichester after uni over 8 years ago and this place pretty much sums up why I was so glad to leave. Terrible beers and miserable staff who ID’d a group of over 30s. Embarrassing. Classic Chichester. Classic waste of time in a persistently ageist city. Vile

The burger reminded me of lady Melissandra from Game of Thrones. It looked beautiful, saucy and sight of it got the juices flowing. One bite and the only image which remains is of the red witch when she takes off the necklace; old, stale and bitter. Service was friendly tho.

Great town pub, I didn't stay but a colleague did and reported a clean, tidy and comfortable room. Good selection of Lagers, Barrel beers, Craft beers Ciders available, well stocked Spirits, all areas covered with alternatives available. Clean tidy bar, lovely old floorboard s and a fire on. Dog friendly, TV's with a selection of sports channels. It was a Monday night visit so not full , I think it's probably very popular on the weekends.
