The Gun Inn in Arun

The staff are really friendly, and the portion and quality of the is really good 👍

Lovely place will go back soon.

We were very happy with our visit to The Gun Inn, the food, service and atmosphere on Mother's Day. As it us near to our new home, we are sure we will be back.

Very nice oldy world pub. Mix of traditional and modern cuisine. Good portions and good quality all cooked to order. Been several times over the years and always been good.

Gone downhill of late, dirty menus, poor choice of food, which is over priced for what it is. Dark, poorly lit not romantic.... not impressed and wont be returning in a hurry.

My favourite pub in the whole world! Working in hospitality for a long time myself, I find I’m now very picky/ fussy when it comes to any pubs or restaurants I visit, but The Gun is simply the best. The staff are amazing, so attentive and friendly without being too much. The food is fabulous, has a real homey feel whilst still looking and tasting 10/10. And the actual pub itself is decorated beautifully, so cosy and inviting. We feel very lucky to call this our local and each visit is always as brilliant as the first. Thank you!

Excellent Sunday pub lunch, lovely private dining room for a larger group. Service was attentive, thank you.

We visited the Gun for a valentine weekend lunch having visited for drinks or a meal a couple of times before. What I love about this cozy, quirky village pub, beyond the great service, beautiful cooking and quality ingredients is its consistency. Always excellent!

Lovely atmosphere and super friendly staff, Just need a bigger mouth for the burgers!! See you again soon

Great Sunday roast....can get really busy so best to book

Great quirky little country pub, the pork belly was perfect, so good I went back to have it again.

A very nice querky pub, good service and had a very nice Sunday lunch.

One of the best roast dinners ever.

I rarely write reviews but our experience at the Gunn Inn was fabulous from start to finish. We received a really warm welcome on arrival, the landlady was exceptional, the Sunday roast the best roast I’ve had for a long time, I had the lamb, super generous portion, so tender and tasty, my wife had the pork, the cracking was to die for, the veggies were delicious with a really tasty gravy, service was brilliant, the sticky toffee pudding was very naughty but we couldn’t resist. Delicious! We will be back very soon. Highly recommended

We visited for a pre-Xmas family Sunday roast & everything was pretty much perfect. A beautiful old pub with a lovely, warm atmosphere, friendly service, excellent, generous & keenly-priced roasts & good wine. One of the best.

Top pub, as usual. My fave beer, Gun Barrel. Try it 🍺

An absolutely lovely pub. The staff were great and kind. The food was delicious too. Would definitely recommend to others. And will certainly visit again!

Now my local pub and I love the place. Great food, staff are lovely and it has a great 'old pub' atmosphere .

Such an amazing pub with amazing food. I would highly recommend going there and will be back soon.

I haven't frequented this establishment for a few years but my wife and I decided to try it for Sunday lunch about three weeks back, While booking a table the member of staff was very helpful in helping us choose an ideal table within the bar. The food was first rate,(compliments to the chef), beer & wine also very good. What really helped to make the visit was the friendliness and attentiveness (without being intrusive) of the staff. We returned yesterday for another Sunday lunch and again another enjoyable visit. A pub that retains it's old world charm without being pretentious. I/we will definitely be patronising this establishment more frequently. Big thank you to the Landlady and all her staff.

Just had an excellent roast beef lunch with pals. Beef was perfect and staff efficient and friendly, even though flat out busy.

Loved it! Quirky garden lovely log fire very cosy :)

Left it to the last minute for sunday lunch then remembered this pub, had one cancellation so managed to fit two of us in. Staff really welcoming, the atmosphere was lovely like stepping back in time in this beautiful old pub , had a table in the restaurant, one roast beef & one pork belly which we couldnt fault, a lovely selection of vegetables, followed by two Apple crumbles & custard complements to the chef. We will definatly be back soon. Thankyou.

We visited The Gun, as the kitchen was closed in the nearby pub we were heading to. What a result...The Gun was a great find. The food was excellent, the table servers were polite, efficient and friendly. Two large wines, two soft drinks and two lovely main meals for £60. Money well spent! Will definitely be back when next in the area.

This is our favourite pub, food is amazing, well cooked and presented and so tasty with a great menu and specials. All of the team are so welcoming and friendly. Its dog friendly too.

Sampled the steak pie tonight with buttered & crushed new potatoes, cabbage veg and a gravy. There was so much meat in the home made pie which was twice the size of a traditional one in tin foil. The pastry was lovely and it was just superb comfort food. It was all I could hope for and I was fill. Thanks.

I had Sunday lunch here with family & thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were friendly & welcoming. The service was prompt & we got our food extremely quickly. The roast was freshly cooked & delicious. I would have liked a bit more veg (which was a good selection - carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, swede, white & red cabbage). But maybe I'm just greedy!! I didn't have a dessert, but am told the cheesecake was lovely. The pub itself is a very old building, full of character & beautiful. I'd totally recommend a visit.

Went to the gun over the weekend and had the most amazing lamb kofta, really fresh and vibrant flavours! Super filling and beautifully presented. Will definitely be coming back 😊

We have had some good meals there in the past but the last one was truly awful... lamb something or other on a stick... padded out with piles of bread and a little salad. Following your response I need to add that we are aware of the title of the dish but what we were given was 2 very small hard bits of meat on sticks that broke.(I would hardly call them skewers) I have had this dish before in other places and it has been delicious. My sister had 3 pitta breads with hers and i had one GF very large plate sized pitta bread. The "salad" was tiny. It was not a good experience. In this instance very disappointing.

What a place!!! What a pub!!! Can’t recommend them enough!!! We will definitely go back for a day trip!!! Thank you so much.

What a lovely place, great atmosphere friendly staff, worth a visit one of the best pub's in the country

The best roast in Sussex by far!

Lovely pub in the heart of Findon village. The food is absolutely beautiful, a cut far above your usual pub fare, it is of a high standard restaurant quality. Staff are friendly and helpful and never seem rushed even during busy periods. The charm and character of the building and garden speaks for itself, I would highly recommend a visit!

Staying for a week in Findon visiting family in Worthing. Had a excellent meal. Food was hot and freshly cooked. I had the ribeye steak which was delicious and my husband had venison and ale pie which was also delicious. Service was excellent. Helpful staff. Will definitely visit next time we're here. Would highly recommend.

Have had a couple of great meals at this pub.

A very traditional old pub with a cosy exposed beam interior. The decor inside is very good with antique-style candles on the tables.

The Gun Inn is a lovely rural pub ,sadly we couldn't eat because they were busy. The chef felt he didn't have enough food. Which was strange.

For 2nd year running I hosted lunch for 8 people at The Gun - having driven from Cornwall. The weather allowed us to be seated in the garden. The food & service were outstanding. No member of staff could be singled out for praise because they were all equally patient and kind. This, despite it being a very busy Sunday lunch. It was a long way to go - but well worth the journey.

Had an excellent meal last night at the Italian evening. Great service even with the place packed! Will return for another themed night.

The Gun Inn, situated in the picturesque village of Findon, offers a fabulous menu, great hosts

Wonderful pub with 600 years of history. It has won the award for best pub in the UK. Truly a special place.

Enjoyed a delicious Sunday Lunch at this lovely old pub yesterday. We all had the Roast Beef and it was top notch! Everything cooked beautifully, generous portions of varied veggies, crispy roasties and oodles of rich gravy. The beef was thickly sliced, generous and delicious particularly topped with lovely horseradish sauce! Desserts were also lovely and I devoured my Raspberry Mess with relish. The pub was very busy (deservedly) but service was excellent. We were welcomed and served throughout with efficiency and lots of smiles. I can’t wait to go back for more!

Really lovely and friendly pub. Was made to feel like a regular from the moment we got there. Great place.

Dropped in after a very soggy and misty walk with our whippet (despite it being August!). Staff were friendly, pub was really cosy inside with candles lit. Food was really good. My burger was one of the best I’ve ever had. Absolutely delicious.

Nice cosy pub with a good atmosphere, great food, friendly staff and nice outdoor area. Website says they are open Mondays but I went there today and they were closed

Wonderful village pub with a great team serving delicious food. One of the best pub roasts around.

Fabulous Italian food (themed night), excellent service, and a wonderful pub garden setting.

Great pub with an excellent outdoor area in a very cute village. Staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic Sunday roast and always a great pint.

We were staying nearby and decided to eat at the Gun Inn on the first night. Before the end of the meal we had booked again for the next night - not something I would normally do. The setting is very nice - authentically quirky, just what you would hope a country village pub would be like. The service was excellent, and the whole environment seemed very friendly and local, also very dog friendly. The food was very good - the burger on the first night was the best I have had for a while, and the pie on the second night was equally good. The wine list isn't very extensive, but most of the wines were available in small, medium or large glasses as well as by the bottle. All in all, it was a very enjoyable meal.

We loved this pub. The garden is great, the food is great, ambience and staff are great. You get the picture… Tasty lamb tacos. Fabulous fresh mussels.

Very cosy pub where locals swing by. Staff were friendly and competent. The (very large) portions of food were absolutely fantastic, not least the chicken and chorizo pie. Only minus were the toilets which were not nice.

It was fine, called in for a pint of beer, next time will have a meal.

Our first visit but definitely not our last. It was Tuesday so French Night! Fab food, great price and friendly, attentive staff. We look forward to returning soon 😊

Great food and service. Beautiful steak. Lovely atmosphere

The food is really good and portions are large, especially dessert portions. Burgers are really nice course ground patties, rather than finely ground, so nicer coarse texture that I prefer. Some unusual choices on the menu which were successful too, such as lamb tacos. These worked well but were slightly smaller portions. Could have probably eaten 3 instead of 2. But desserts afterwards could all have served two people. Pavlova the size of a dinner plate and really rich chocolate brownies that were great but we struggled to finish. Service was really attentive and genuinely friendly. We were going to eat outside as they were full inside but a double booking meant we were moved and it was no trouble to them. Really nice atmosphere inside. Garden is OK but the wood chip on the ground could do with a refresh. There was nowhere to park within 400yds of the pub, but was worth the walk from roadside parking. Findon seems incredibly busy for parking. Something to bear if you have someone infirm with you. But really enjoyed our meal and left feeling it was pretty good value and that we'd had a very nice time.

Took family here on a weeknight. Great menu choices, great service, fabulous ambience. Family loved the old world ness and coziness of the pub

Grand old village pub. Great selection of well kept Ringwood draught ales. Would recommend the 49er! Restaurant was busy although we did not eat this time. Definitely requires another visit to dine! Menu looks very good.

Lovely food. The cheesecake was an interesting interpretation. Roast beef and lamb Were both delicious. The seating is cramped and very close together

Very old authentic pub with lots of character and good food.

Just drinks but a great atmosphere

Food was delicious and very filling for a Sunday roast. Hot food served on a hot plate, the simple things matter. Probably didn't need the halloumi starter although it did taste good. The lamb shoulder fell apart easily, plenty of vegetables & gravy to go with. Worth the £19 price tag. Would have liked the option of adding a Yorkshire pudding on it though. Service was excellent. Best to book in advance. Will be back, Thanks.

We went for Sunday lunch and it was fantastic, a long, relaxed, delicious lunch. We'll be returning very soon.

We attended a wake today at the gun and it was a loverly lil pub with nice garden area with open fires in some of the rooms I wish I had seen more or ordered food so I will be visiting again to be able to give a better review

Sitting outside its very dirty and untidy. Didn't like it. Food was lovely though. Dog friendly.

THE PUB TO BE ! Actually, this is the best pub I've ever been to ! Steak Ale pie was delicious. The staff was so kind, and the place itself is amazing, cosy, and welcoming. We feel at home ! Thanks for everything. It's a well-deserved 5 stars !

Highly rated Sunday roasts. Their lunch menu also comes recommended. Friendly staff and accommodating to children.

The Gun Inn was recommended to me for a great Sunday roast. Well it did not disappoint. The staff were lovely, the atmosphere and style was great and the food was the best you would expect . My Sister and I had a 3 course Sunday lunch, starting with the asparagus tips on sourdough with a poached egg, followed by belly of pork, the best roast potatoes and a full fresh selection of vegetables. We had the raspberry & pistachio meringue for desert. It was so delicious and I can honestly say, the best Sunday roast I have had anywhere! I would definitely recommend The Gun Inn, especially if you want food that has been carefully prepared and served to order. Hats off to the chefs and welcoming staff who made the visit so great.

Great food, service a little moody, shame but ok.

Really lovely. Turned up with a load of screaming kids, looked after us v well. Great roast. Lovely staff. Thanks! X

Good atmosphere beer food and service

My roast arrived after others 12 booked in and ordered all roasts before mine was cold so much fat on beef roasts potatoes and parsnips and my Yorkshire pudding burnt

A group of us went to The Gun Inn for the first time for my birthday. All the communication about the booking was great and so was pre-ordering food. It was a classic rainy Sunday but that didn't detract from how lovely the pub was nor how friendly the staff were. We had a super time and would all go back!

Attentive friendly staff served the most delicious roast with the best locally grown vegetables. Generous portions and such a warm atmosphere; highly recommended.

Food was amazing and great service, but very smokey

Mothers day lunch, absolutely delicious 😋 Thanks so much Sally & Tream !

Only had coffee - very pleasant and they squeezed us in though all tables were booked!

Very satisfactorily visit to the old pub. Good range of drinks. Excellent service by enthusiastic and gregarious staff.

One of the best pubs in the area, staff are super and very helpful. Food was excellent, Sunday roast for me and plenty of it.

Lovely old pub with lovely grub

Excellent pub, outstanding service, fantastic food. Good quality real ales. Not an item to fault. I would score 11/10.

Very nice food. Mistake made taking order but lovely friendly helpful staff resolved it.

Strange attitude with table booking… wouldn’t allow me to book a table because i was waiting to see if an extra person would join. They advised me to wait until I had confirmation, in case someone else wanted the table I wanted to reserve, whilst assuring me they had plenty of tables. Then when I tried to book the day after the member of staff informed me they were fully booked up “you should probably book a week in advance in future.” If the tables go that easily, what was the issue with me booking in the first place?

Absolutly excellent food will most definitely go there again

The best pub! It’s so cosy and has incredible food

There is no other pub that quite captures the same charm as the gunn. Stunning old property. The staff are always quick, super friendly landlady, always working hard. I've eaten here many a time and am always impressed by the menu. They clearly use good chefs that know how to be creative. A pretty good roast dinner on a Sunday also. I always feel lucky to spend time at the gunn. Great team making the place what it is.

Amazing Christmas dinner with work friends

Just a great place in a great area. Staff are super friendly. Beware.... It can get very busy, however, they deal with it very well. AAA+++++

How glad am I that The Gun is my local! All the staff are always lovely and welcoming, not only to me but my dog. It’s Christmas so the low beams are decked with boughs of pine, the log fire is ablaze and a twinkling traditional tree makes for a cosy atmosphere. And it’s probably been this way for the whole of its 500 year history. It has decent beer on tap; check Gun Barrel 👌🏻and always stocks pukka crisps! (the only place I know that has veggie Ham and Mustard or Roast Ox flavours!). Just love and appreciate the love and warmth.

Service and food fantastic! Highly recommend.

Nice little Village pub with good fresh food! Make sure to book if want to eat as it is quite polular.

Excellent food and great atmosphere. Service OK but didn't match the food. Will I return....definitely 😄👍

our favourite gastro pub ever. It was a major influence in us moving to the village!!! The staff are lovely and the food and bar fantastic - always!

Proper country pub, a warm welcome by staff, only stopped off for a pint, passing through, would definitely return tho if in the area.

Wonderful pub in every way from the beer to the food to the serving staff. Very highly recommended

Joined friends for a 20th Anniversary meal and blown away by the friendliness from Sally (who is definitely the right person to run a Pub). The food was fantastic, indeed everything was superb. Definitely need to go back again maybe in the Spring to enjoy the amazing outside area.

Lovely Sunday Roast! Such a great pub in the Village - unique in style and quality.

Was served by Chloe & the team, we had a brilliant time with some great food - very cost effective! Chloe stood out, very attentive and popped by a view times to check on us - we’ll be back!

Dark and dreary. No atmosphere.

You would never guess how pleasant it is from the outside.
