The Olive Branch in Horsham

This is a great pub to go to for a group dinner. Our tennis club went there for our annual Christmas lunch and we couldn’t fault it. The food was superb, the staff were great and the whole event ran like clockwork. Everyone was really impressed and are looking to come back next year.

We popped in for Sunday roast before dropping my dad off at the airport. We live in Horsham and haven't visited The Olive Branch for years but had heard great things about their roast. The mixed roast was a great choice - all the meat was incredibly tasty, the veg was lovely but the roasties were a bit dry and tasteless. We ordered from the kids menu for my 4yr old - fish fingers but asked for just broccoli with it as he wouldn't eat the chips or peas. It was £8 which I would've been OK with if they were fancy fish fingers but the weren't and there was only 3 of them - they weren't even birdseye standard. He ate them (thank goodness)! Staff were friendly and roast was yummy overall but I wouldn't choose to eat there with young kids again. Might be worth considering either lowering the price of the kids menu or having a 'smaller tums'menu (a bit like ASK). Hope my feedback is taken as constructive

We came here on Friday afternoon for a couple of drinks as me and my husband like the olive branch. My husband got served straight away by a young with a plat. When It was my turn to order another drink the landlord with a bald held was behind the bar on his mobile phone. He could see us waiting to be served as we were sitting at the bar. But he carried on texting. This is not customer service at all. It's absolutely appalling. There was girls serving behind the bar as he was also trying to sort the fire out why I don't know when it was fine. We went back later that evening to have a meal. He served us our meal with no smile or even a comment such as enjoy your meal. He didn't even ask if we would like any sauces or anything. He came across very rude. For this we will not step another foot inside this place as we both felt very uncomfortable.

We went with family 7 adults and two children charged the extra 10% over 8 at table. Not happy to pay an extra £26 + pounds. Not everything on menu was available but still charged full price. Won’t be returning

Popped in here for a drink, liked it so much we stayed for dinner. Both meals were excellent. Pie was excellent My partner had the ribs which were huge. Service was excellent and loved the atmosphere and decor of the bar and restaurant. Would definitely recommend and return.

Sorry to say the food seems to have gone down hill since we came here last. I had fish and chips here was sadly obviously frozen and the chips were not great. They could do better. The fish and chips up the road in the actual fish shop are much better with a fresher feel.

Lovely pub, with character and friendly,helpful staff. We parked in a car park about 5/10 mins walk away. Family get together with 9 of us meeting up. Our group had 1 with gluten free requirements and a 92 year old who likes basic, classic food and all catered for with such a great choice of food. The service was seamless, the atmosphere relaxed. Would definitely go back if in the area again.

Popped in for a burger with friends. Burgers were nice and of good quality, banoffee pie was good too 👌🏻 We were sat in the bar, it was very quiet so there wasn’t much atmosphere.

Such a shame! One of the nicest pubs in the town ruined by the landlord…a simple smile and hello would take you a bit feather. We so wish Andrew Crompton was the one who runs our beautiful pub.

Taken here for Mothers Day lunch. Atmosphere great Staff very welcoming & friendly Amazing service,even did something for me that was not on menu!!!brilliant all round customer service,thank you!!

Service was friendly and efficient but food disappointing. Sunday roast had some good points- decent fresh vegetables and cauliflower cheese but roast beef could only be served “well done “ and the duck breast was not edible since I couldn’t saw through it even with a steak knife! The waitress didn’t comment!

I just wanna say a huge thank you to Fiona and grace for your hospitality this evening for myself and my friends. Not only was the food amazing but the attention In the service we received was second to none. The young lady Grace that was serving our table could not have done any more to have made us feel welcome. She was friendly kind and made sure we were looked after from start to finished. I speak on behalf of myself and everyone I was with in saying we will be back. Again thank you so much,

Wow what a find, came for wknd in Horsham with family. Book for dinner , great venue out the back, with great food and staff in dining area and bar staff. Top the evening 80's Tripicana nite and had good boogie till midnight. Absolute find, best evening for a very long time. A couple gave up there seats for our mum's. Who had a ball. Thk u to everyone for a great evening we will be back.

Had a reservation for 8 last Sunday for a birthday lunch. The Olive Branch is a lovely pub, warm and inviting and the staff are attentive and friendly. Most of us decided to go for the Sunday Roast. Unfortunately,we had not seen the size of these before we ordered starters and mains and I think only 1 person managed to eat everything. The portion sizes are big!! That is not a complaint but a compliment, we just struggled when we got to the desserts lol!! All in all the food was lovely. The main courses could've been a little hotter, they were not stone cold just not piping hot but the pub was busy so it's to be expected. We all went away happy and overfed!

Delightful old bar with a large open fireplace and a lovely fire, which was great, especially on a cold December night when we were there for a few drinks on the Saturday before Christmas. Was busy which added to the atmostphere, service was good as well. Didn't try any food, might do so next time we are down in Horsham.

Delicious food, excellent service & such a warm & inviting atmosphere. Didn’t want to leave! Definitely the best pub/restaurant in Horsham. Highly recommend.

A nice cosy pub with a crackling fireplace. Drinks a little pricey but maybe on a par with most. The decor is nice. I gavent eaten here but seen the roasts which look delicous.

We were a party of about 20, with food orders given in advance. Food appeared on time, and was delivered to the table by name as they used the list we had provided. Excellent food, excellent service. The beer I had was great too!

This pub is perfect for a group meal. We went here yesterday for our tennis club Christmas lunch and the whole event ran like clockwork. The food was plentiful, hot ( if applicable) and good quality. The staff were brilliant, the venue comfortable and everyone enjoyed themselves. They all said how good it was afterwards. We’ll now doubt be back next year!

Food was lovely. Was great to eat somewhere where food is good, staff great and the prices were reasonable.

First time for Sunday lunch at The Olive Branch Great food,great service,great atmosphere Thank you all

Have been here a few times for food and just for drinks. Always great there. Food is good and they have kept it normal and not gone for the posh nosh! The staff are always friendly, if I knew their names I would mention them!

Went to the Olive Branch for their newly launched steak night. My meal was superb, outstanding, delicious steak, best I’ve had in quite awhile, peppercorn sauce fries and broccoli were delicious too!

Wonderful Sunday lunch was had by eighteen of us. The food was excellent and the meat locally sourced which is a big plus. Considering our large party everything ran smoothly and the staff were lovely. I’ve never had a bad meal at the Olive so going by my own experience I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

I popped in for a after work drink and noticed that they had just launched a New Tapas menu which is served between 4pm & 7pm every Friday - 3 bowls for £15 or £6 each. It was absolutely exceptional, the Garlic Prawns with crusty bread, served with a herb and oil dip that really complimented the whole dish. The Sherry glazed ribs just fell of the bone and the Chorizo & Cheese Croquettes were to die for. I will definitely be coming back with all the family to sample more of the 10 options available. A very well organized and professional team. Now just waiting for the evening entertainment

Came in to watch the world cup final with family, everyone said the food and service was amazing - would recommend!

Lovely pub, great for evening drinks with a huge gin selection 😍!! Very delicious burgers and brilliant staff. Couldn’t recommend a better pub to visit

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the staff here. I visited today with my son whom has autism and struggles with social anxiety the team were super welcoming allocated us a nice quite table with little noise etc we ordered a burger and sandwich both excellent and the food was delivered very quickly amazing service and a delightful visit me and my son will visit again thank you all

Great food and a lovely place to spend a lunch at! Service was amazing which came with a smile, food was prepared really quickly and was highly satisfied with this pub

Lovely pub, great staff and the food is delicious. Definitely try the Sunday roast, Caesar salad & burgers. Super garden too, great live bands and it’s dog friendly!

Another fabulous Sunday lunch. Roast beef was perfect, but a lot of it. Not a problem there though. I had the cod which was brilliant as I’m not a lover at all of a roast dinner. Even better was that as it was Father’s Day there was no set menu. Thanks again Dave, Fi, Mel and the other guys. 10/10 as always.

Excellent and friendly service. Really tasty food that arrived speedily. Live music in the bar. A top evening.

I just had my 50th Birthday party at the Olive Branch, Horsham. Right from first contact they couldn't be more helpful. We booked the "Olive Room" which gave us privacy and a lovely area for the party with a great atmosphere, plenty of seating, and a private bar. The menus on offer were really good and we selected the BBQ menu, which went down a storm with everyone, there was loads of food and everyone commented how great it was. The staff on the night were superb, really attentive and helpful and provided an excellent standard of service. I'm so glad we had my party there, everyone had a great time, and I would not hesitate to recommend the Olive Branch to anyone.

Excellent food and service. Comfortable surroundings .They really made our young Grandsons birthday very special. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to return

We ordered burgers and ribs from here last weekend and it was delicious! It arrived hot and on time! Fresh products aswell so it makes all the difference! Would definitely recommend!

Love the takeaway from here , had the new lentil burger a few weeks ago and was amazing , tried the beetroot this week and it was also amazing! Really good vegan range so i don't feel left out of the family takeaway!

A freind recommended the burger shack to me and i was not disappointed. I ordered the chicken curry burger and my wife ordered the daffy duck. We both agreed that the burgers are some of the best we have ever tried. Good portion sizes and excellent service. The ordering system was fantastic. We were able to have our delivered at a set time. This was great as we could sit down and enjoy coronation street with out being disturbed and enjoy some delicious food. We are looking forward to going into the pub after lockdown to enjoy some more wonderful food.

lockdown takeaway! Ordered burgers and nachos and they where delivered bang on time and piping hot! Wonderful flavour and great portion sizes too. Will definitely return.

We had the best takeaway we’ve had all lockdown from the Olive Branch Burger Shack. We had burgers, ribs, wings and veggie options - couldn’t fault any of it. Even the chips tasted like proper, freshly cooked pub chips. Delivered bang on time too. We’ll definitely be back for more.

We’ve just had a takeaway which was absolutely the best, I’ve never put a review on meals before but just had to this time. Everything was cooked to perfection and delivered exactly on time. My husband had the cheese burger, I had the grilled chicken burger - delicious.
