After a stroll around Horsham and a rest in the wonderful park they have there, we used our sat nav and went to The Fox pub at Small dole. It's about a 14mile trip but well worth it as it's a lively country pub. The staff gave us an extremely friendly welcome, and you get a good choice of beers as well. The food was excellent from the traditional scampi, to the mouthwatering burger, and of course a little extra with the bacon and stilton added. It was all absolutely delicious and well worth the journey. May we pass our thanks on to Jan and all the staff for making our visit so special. From Ray,Rosemary, and our dog Susie Table 21 today @ 12noon.

We came as a party of x4 this afternoon. Upon walking into the pub , well this had changed tremendously since we had been just prior to covid... nowhere to have a drink as all the tables were seated for diner's. To go in just for a pint... well a no go.And a Sunday roast was what we came for and to be told that at 1.15 pm they had run out of roasts was just awfull. No apologies, just a reply of"mad isn't it that we have run out, in the 20 odd years I've been here ,never happened before!!" The lady was not even wanting to hear what we had to say , just wanted us to pay and go. It just went over her head,soo blasé! One if our party has a walking aid and was getting knocked into left right and center,so not a disable friendly place. Shall not be returning

We had a table booked for 4 people on Sunday at 2.15 pm. We checked in at around 1.45 pm. Bought drinks at bar, awaiting our table. No where to sit, so as I use walking aids we sat outside for 15 mins as I was getting pushed & shoved in bar. When we went back inside & asked if our table was ready we were told it was given to someone else (who'd booked for 2.30pm) as they couldn't find us! It was only 2.05 pm at this point. We were told no Sunday roasts left! They'd actually ran out at 1.15pm (they start food at 12!). A nice Sunday roast is what we came out for to celebrate our birthdays. The only food available was that on the specials boards. But we were told they had plenty of roast potatoes which we could have with anything 🤣. Our food was nice, but not at all what we'd come out for. To be honest, for what was on the specials boards & the prices charged, I would have gone some place else (One of the deserts & meals had both gone off the board by the time we'd left). So, we just had one drink each & main meal & left. Upon leaving I asked why at the least there was not a sign on the chalk board outside stating "no Sunday roasts left" - I was told "I have no time to do that!" I also queried the fact that our table had initially been given to others that had booked for 2.30?! Nothing of what I'd said was taken in - it all just went right over the ladies head - she was not bothered or interested in listening. Apparently they'd never ran out of roasts like that before! Needless to say - four very disappointed customers whom will not be returning after that experience. Also, it is not a disabled friendly pub.

Outstanding British Pub atmosphere and staff making it as pleasant as they can. Food choices are very wide with specials too. All very big which is not to everyone's liking. They welcomed starter and pudding served as main and pudding without fuss. Busy and popular so best to book ahead IMO. If I were to change anything it would be more padding on the chairs... Well done to team and will go again.

I have eaten here a few times over the year, and everything I have had ( and seen on other tables ) is good, that's why I go there. BUT, do not have the S&K pud, it to me is a rip off, this last one had 1 small piece of kidney, a piece of grissle, an extra long piece of meat ( 2" ) held together by sinue and 2 small bits of meat. They do not have to make them like this for the price they charge. Even if they say it was a one off, I shall not take the risk again.

Visited for the first time a couple of weeks after after being unwell over xmas it was so lovely to get out and enjoy a good meal! The pub looks quite modern outside but inside it has a really classic pub feel to it filled with locals on a Friday evening which was great to see! We each had the TFI burgers and they were fab! HUGE mind! I couldnt finish mine but still had room for chocolate cake desert! Both courses were great, affordable compared to some pubs in Horsham at the moment and Lynn the manager/assuming owner, was a pure delight, helpful, welcoming and informative! Looking forward to our return and working out way through the very classic, very British but fresh and home cooked menu! p.s - chips were the best chunky chips ive had in years!

If you wonder whether to go there or to another pub for food in the area, I recommend the Fox because there, you cannot be disappointed.

The food was delicious,I ordered the roast and by far the best I’ve had,my husband had the lasagne which was equally as tasty. I had trifle as a dessert and it was presented so lovely I didn’t want to spoil it by eating it but glad I did as was full of fruit and custard. Will be booking a table again soon.

Nice enough pub, with a reasonable drinks selection and friendly staff. We visited for a family lunch (on recommendation) and the place is very geared up for food. However, the food is absolutely dreadful: over cooked, bland and (in the case of the bao buns that I had) inedibly dry. Seems very popular, for reasons unknown to this visitor.

Unfortunately we felt on this occasion the food really was not up to the usual standard - whitebait over cooked - chips not their usual crispy delicious standard - but everyone has an off day and we said it would not deter us from returning HOWEVER we found out as we were leaving that after 14 years of trading the Orchard is due to close at the end of September 😔 So sad as , as a family some who are no longer with us it was always are “go to” place for a good quality home cooked meal . So what ever the owners plans are for the future we wish them good luck 😋
