Very disappointing. We asked for no fish, but was still served salmon. The filling options were lazy. Waiters not attentive, had to wait 30 minutes for a refill of tea, and the same for an extra pot of jam. Massively lacked the luxury feel! No finishing touches that you'd expect at an afternoon tea . Service was extremely poor! Wouldn't recommend. Shame we spent £60 here!

Very good. Beautiful place to eat. The afternoon tea was lovely and had far to much to eat and needed a 'doggybag'. However on a Sunday roast was a bit disappointed as was asked how we liked the beef and we said rare, it came out well done. Bit pointless asking. Would still recommend though.

Food was excellent and the ambience was lovely. The staff were very professional and catered for every need. I had called the reception earlier in the day to request a dessert with special message to be written on it… and it was done perfectly. So thankyou all for that! Also couldn’t get over how good the value for money was here

I know you see a lot of reviews claiming they've just had the best roast ever, but this was actually the best roast I've had. Me and the Mrs go all over Sussex trying roasts and this place is in 1st place. The staff were friendly and approachable, the setting is beautiful and the food is delicious and full of flavour. Highly recommended.

My wife and I came here for lunch yesterday. We were very disappointed. The service was slow to non existent. It wasn't a very busy restaurant but even so attracting attention from staff was very difficult. Service was very slow. There were at least four different waiting staff going back and forth but no one looked in our direction or seemed interested in us. My lunch was fine and I had no complaint with it. My wife ordered a quiche which was burnt on top. She was offered a replacement and chose something different. I eventually caught someones eye and got the bill, sadly no one came to the table so I walked up to the service point in order to pay. I did mention that the service was poor and the waitress said that they had been busy with a conference next door. (No apology) I was very sorry to have inconvenienced them with our custom. Obviously we know our place from now on and it won't be here. If you have a conference and a restaurant open at the same time perhaps adequate staffing of both is a good idea. I see from a previous review that slow service was a source of irritation. Hopefully management will take the hint and address the problem. This was our first and last visit. First impressions do count.

High expectations for dinner for my husbands 70th birthday. We waited over 45minutes to get warm bread, it arrived cold, sent back and finally after approx one hour had warm bread,butter olives etc. Starters came 15 minutes later. Main course arrived again after a considerable time and beefburger was luke warm, chips ultra crispy and obviously from a packet (my quess would be the same supplier as McDonalds). Sent back but husband and friend had eaten their dinner before a replacement sent. I didn't want to be eating alone so the evening ended with me very cross. Why was there such a problem??? Our guess is the kitchen couldn't cope as they also had a 15+ person birthday party in the restaurant who took priority over other dinners. Expensive, poor quality food and unheated plates. Food left to stand too long before being brought to customers. Complained to the manager as we were leaving,he took our details and promised to look into complaint and ring me within a couple of days after he had spoken to his team. Surprise , surprise I am still waiting for the phone call 11 days later. This restaurant should be ashamed of themselves. My husband's 70th birthday was ruined and to add insult to injury I was so hungry on returning home I had to cook!

I was amazed at the quality value and imagination of the set lunch menu. The smoked salmon starter was a delight, the braised beef main absolutely perfect and a very fine creme brulee with, and I love it, a top like really hard. Delightful service. Certainly has become a VERY important eating place near Henfield. If you havn't tried it go as soon as possible you will not be disappointed.

This was a totally wonderful experience, with attentive service in a glorious location - on the restaurant terrace. There were five of us, and we ranged across a selection of starters and mains. All were absolutely first class - definitely Bib Gourmand standard. There was a tie for starter of the day between a deconstructed prawn cocktail with crispy prawns, and the baked baby camembert. The portions are generous so we were all able to sample them, as we were the mains of an amazing pork dish, a sumptuous chowder and perfectly cooked duck. I don't have the right sort of memory for the proper names of all the dishes, but all five of us enjoyed our choices, and the tastings we had of each others. This is really fine dining, at modest prices, in a lovely setting with great service. We glimpsed the afternoon tea service on the way out: we'll be back for that.

The first thing that you note about this restaurant is it’s location, being part of the Wickwoods Country Club, then when you drive there you note it’s rural setting and the smart building, and then when you arrive inside the restaurant you cannot fail to notice the huge glass roof that provides such a light and airy ambience in which to dine. When making the reservation for my daughter and her partner, and my partner and myself, I did specify that I wanted a table in the main part of the restaurant, rather that patio which was under canvas. We were not disappointed: indeed we marvelled at the tasteful illumination of the glass roof, and the quality of the tables and settings underneath.We studied the menu taking our time to choose the right plates, and the right wine. We ordered a bottle of the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc which was £23.50 (this is a price that we regularly pay for wine and within our budget range), my partner and I were the only ones drinking wine, as my daughter was driving, and her partner was abstaining. During the meal we ordered another round of drinks and my partner and I had a glass each of the same wine.Starters: My daughter - Panko Breaded Squid, Chilli Jam My daughter’s partner - Sourdough, Ciabatta, Sundried Tomato Focaccia, Rosemary Oil, BalsamicMy partner - Baked Baby Camembert, Chutney, Chargrilled SourdoughMyself - Tempura Prawns, Asian Salad, Soy, CorianderAll were excellent, but I can only tell you more about my plate: the three tender and hot prawns with perfect light and crispy batter, and the very small and crunchy Asian salad were both delicious. With mains to follow including sides, I didn’t expect to need more than this small plate to start.Mains: My daughter’s partner - 8oz Trenchmore Farm Beef Burger and bun (the Chilli Jam, Tomato, Gherkin, Baby Gem Lettuce were ALL REMOVED). To that very basic burger, Bacon and Cheddar Cheese were then added, this was served with fries.The rest of us each chose the Pan Fried Sea Bass, Roasted Tenderstem, Lemon and Olive Tomato Salsa, and Orzo Pasta.Sides: a portion of Chunky Chips and a portion of Seasonal Green Vegetables.Whilst we waited we sat and chatted, it was good to soak-up the atmosphere and enjoy the occasion. Then the main plates were served; I would say at this point that the quantity of food on the plate was a lot less than we would normally serve at home, or be served with at some other restaurants.* Those awaiting sides were sure that they would arrive soon, but it quickly became obvious that there was an issue. We signalled another waiter and asked him to investigate, and he disappeared off and then our waitress reappeared after a couple of minutes. Our waitress apologetically advised that the sides had been missed from the order, and that the kitchen was now preparing our sides and they would be ready in “About five minutes”. The three of us had already started eating our fish: as it was ready to eat and would have not been improved by letting it get cold. I must admit I was annoyed and when questioned whether the sides were still required my initial reaction was to cancel mine: as half of my meal had already been eaten. My annoyance got the better of me and I pointed out to the waitress that I would have finished my meal by the time the sides were served. My daughter decided she would have her chunky chips, so I decided that I would have my green veg side which I intended to share with my partner.By the time the missing sides appeared I had indeed finished my main and my partner had her last mouthful to finish, so my partner and I ate the veg side on its own. The tenderstem broccoli and asparagus were particularly good, cooked to absolute perfection and the side was steaming hot. Although much enjoyed it would have definitely been better if served with the main plates. The chunky chips were equally excellent, and we all had a few of these as finger food.The waitress had offered to strike the sides from the bill, which I said was not necessary, but indeed they were the first two entries on the itemised bill which we paid including the 12.5% service charge. The waitress was obviously mortified that the mistake had been made and I will, say for my part, that I should have been less visibly annoyed, and more understanding of what was a simple mistake. So it is apologies from me for making the waitress feel worse than she already did.Having eaten the mains and sides I decided dessert was in order, so I ordered a Peach Panna Cotta. To be honest the meal to that point had not sated my appetite, but others were too full to have dessert and settled for coffees instead. My desert was very good indeed; very refreshing with a boule of peach ice cream to top it off.Despite the mishap it was a really good meal in a superb setting. *Sometimes quantity is less important than the quality and the taste of the food, and to be fair what I had was absolutely gorgeous (others were of similar minds I’m sure).

Overall it was good but there are some aspects which could be better. The quality of the cakes was fabulous it was the savoury that lets it down. Firstly there is not enough savoury to balance it out. A couple of sandwiches and some little buns and crackers with a very nice truffle mayonnaise. There is no meat option for the sandwiches, a nice beef and horseradish would be good. Perhaps they could add in a sausage roll or similar or change one of the scones to a savoury one. Also, the Prosecco or champagne option which is more expensive is instead of tea which seems odd - should be in addition.For now I probably wouldn’t have afternoon tea there again unless the menu changes.

We joined one of the festive meal evenings that was accompanied by a pianist who had a varied repertoire. Christmas hymns and songs and a gentle version of some pop classics. Very relaxing. Our meal was very good. The watercress soup was smooth and tasty and my partner had smoked salmon which he enjoyed. I had sea bass for main and my partner had the turkey. Both were very good and were followed by a home made cheesecake and some apple crumble. Then coffee and mince pie. Pity we couldn't dance the calories away but it was an enjoyable evening. We were not rushed and service was attentive.

We have eaten here twice in recent weeks and have been really impressed on both visits. We had a formal lunch which was outstanding and then last night had a ‘substantial meal” in the bar area. This was only £6.00 per person so we were expecting a light snack. However, we were really impressed by both the quality and quantity of the food that we received. The service was also excellent, but this was no surprise as the staff at Wickwoods are always superb. Thanks to all and Merry Christmas.

Top it all gravy on tap what more could you want.Deserts as divine in all aspects and the various beers accompany the food perfectly. Then you can just look skyward in the restaurant and watch the clouds roll along.Seating is just right your not squashed in tables are well placed whether a large party or simply just two.Highly recommended in all aspects venue, food and price.

The venue was like driving into the forest in the middle of no where then you find this Gold Mine.You park the car and smell of food hits you in best possible way !! OK missed main reception ending up in Country Club. Didn't matter staff were polite and helpful pointing us in right direction through the club.The restaurant was perfect well spaced tables made you feel you weren't on top of each other if a large party of six or just two of you.Staff attention to detail was just right you were in control from start to finish. They did not mind at all of your pace fast or slow.I went for the roast beef perfectly cooked melted in your mouth. As for the veg accompanying the beef perfectly cooked to the right texture and the bonus Gravy on tap especially if you flood the plate as I do. So you can't go wrong in any aspect nothing was a problem.You can sit back look to the sky watch the world go by or simply watch the trees move in the breeze with 360 degree view available that's why its called the GlassHouse.The beers available compliment the food just right then there is the pudding yum yum yum.Planning a revisit at a later date but if in the area would recommend a visit even if its just Sunday Roast Value for money great food,quantities of food on the plate were just right.....the plate was clean in the end!!

We were both working on the 14th, and they were fully booked, so we visited the day before. I could not rate the service any higher, and as a waitress myself, that’s high praise!Thank you to all the staff who made it such a fantastic night. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by every member of staff. There is just the right amount of attention to “leave you alone” time which we both noticed as we felt we had enough time to talk and have a good night, but also knew someone would be there is we wanted something.The free Valentines dessert was also a massive plus!Can’t fault this place.

Four of us had dinner at the Glass House recently and were very disappointed with the service and the food quality. We arrived early and the restaurant wasn’t ready for us. The waitress seemed unable to find our booking. The head waiter asked us to wait in the bar where we ordered a drink. While the server in the bar was new, not her fault, it took 10 minutes to arrange a tab and 4 drinks. We were then called to the table where the wine glasses were whisked away. Orders were take including wine and then we waited and waited and waited. We had to chase our wine order and the the return of the glasses as the starters arrived. The wine was placed on the table for us to pour. The main course arrived then a steak knife had to be found for one of us. My lamb was so chewy it was almost inedible. I left most of it. The waiter and head waiter took the feedback well but their recovery message kept changing. Eventually the chef agreed the lamb was sub standard and it was taken off the bill and I was offered a desert for free which I declined. We asked for coffee and then chased the waiter for the bill. A very underwhelming night.

We had an excellent lunch in this 'glass house' which is actually a huge glass conservatory/ orangery with tons of natural light, fabulous plants and excellent service.

We came for my birthday and chose to come for Sunday lunch. The glass house is a lovely room with a great atmosphere. 5/6 of us had the roast beef it was so good. The Yorkshire was massive, the gravy just right, the potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. The meat was cooked really well too. Service was great will be back very soon!

I found this gem of a restaurant on trip advisor,it had good reviews so I thought I’d give it a go. Right from asking at reception where the restaurant was we were made to feel welcome and special.The waiting staff saw us to our table and was so knowable about the menu and wine list, I asked for cocktails which they don’t generally do but he made me a lovely gin and elderflower drink with orange slices in it. The menu was the Sunday menu,we had starter of asparagus and quails eggs with a lovage sauce and ham hock nuggets with some sort of jus, they were both really fab, then we had roast beef and roast chicken,these meals were amazing,perfect roasties and plenty of veg,the portion sizes were very generous,the beef was a little pink,just how I like it and the chicken was moist and tasty.for desert we had a cheese board and a clotted cream parfait with a strawberry soft creamy mouse type dessert with sliced crunchy strawberries and fresh strawberries too. It all was sooo fabulous. The service was excellent,very attentive but not annoyingly so. The surrounding area was beautiful relaxing and romantic. I’m so pleased we found this hidden gem,we will definitely be back. They look like they do amazing cream teas too!.

I have included comments on this restaurant in my review of Wickwoods Country Club, Hotel & Spa. Food well prepared and served in a terrace restaurant looking out over the hotel gardens and woods. Service excellent.

This was a first visit for us with friends who love this place. It's part of Wickwoods country club and spa. Ambiance is wonderful, modern tasteful decor. Food was excellent and not too pricey. Beautifully presented. and service was very good. Would certainly recommend and go again.

We booked this restaurant for a 21st birthday meal and called to make a reservation in advance, unfortunately they didn't have any available space at time we wanted due to another two large parties that had already booked. We were told by the lady over the phone that it wasn't a problem and they would still be able to still serve us the Sunday lunch menu at a later time (4.00) which is when afternoon tea is served.

Came here for my daughters birthday and thoroughly enjoyed it. The four of us sat on the terrace under a huge pArasol and enjoyed the garden view. The service was attentive and the food was good. The best thing was the peaceful, relaxing environment, we felt as though we were on holiday. The staff could’ve been a little more experienced, they didn’t know what an Aperol spritz was, and we were charged for 6 meals instead of 4 (which was rectified when mentioned) but they were polite and attentive. We will definitely return.

We booked a table for Sunday lunch to celebrate a baby shower with family and friends. The staff were efficient and friendly making everything easy. We preordered our meals and place cards were provided reminding us of our choices. The table was beautifully set and the staff very welcoming. All meals arrived together and were first class. A number of the party had not been before and were most impressed and pleased to know that you did not have to be a member to enjoy such a wonderful meal in such a beautiful place. They will be returning and I booked another table for another occasion as we left. That says it all.

We have been to The Glass House a number of times and have never been disappointed. The relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, lovely surroundings and great food. This time it was for my girlfriends birthday and we had the added benefit of some live music which was on that night. Would recommend and will be back again soon!

Popped in here last night and had an unexpected quick meal. The surroundings are very impressive. Must be even better on a lovely day. If I had one complaint about the decor , it's the artificial ferns!!!!. Sometimes less is better.

Great Sunday lunch but let down by poorly cooked roast potatoes which for me is the best part of the meal. For something so easy to cook I cannot understand why a master chef finalist cannot make a tradition crispy roast potato!

My Mother in law and myself had lunch here as part of a series of 80th birthday treats for her. After a pampering in the country clubs excellent spa we were well looked after over lunch. The lunch menu offers a good choice, and I had a very generous portion of smoked salmon on my starter. The staff were very attentive and brought my mother in law an extra birthday pudding as a surprise. It was a wet day but overlooking the lovely gardens was great. the restaurant was busy and my only slight criticism is that it is very loud in The Glasshouse when busy, and you need to raise your voice to be heard when talking to your companions at the table. I will be back, to try the Sunday lunch I think.

I have been a member of Wickwoods Country Club for 28 years but rarely use the Glass House Restaurant these days. I took some friends there today for lunch and it was a superb experience. The food and quality of service were way above average and sitting under cover but in the open air on a warm Summer day made for a most enjoyable experience. Many thanks to all concerned. Although this is a Members' Club, the Glass House Restaurant is open to all.
