The Plough and Harrow in Wealden

Good friendly traditional country pub with wholesome pub food. Lovely atmosphere and pleasant helpful staff. Would always recommend

Family/visitors gathering for dinner. We all were enjoyed with the location, serviced and food what we ordered. We like to back there if we have an opportunity in the near future.

Great food. The pub has a lovely atmosphere and a lot of character. Lots of GF options. Family friendly, with a nice outside dining area.

Our bill for 6 of us was around £200, when I checked it I could not believe what I found. After asking for some bread to mop up the sauce which was left on the plate after the salmon meal which 5 of us ordered, we were brought 2 slices of sliced white bread and charged £2.50 for them !

Food really was extremely bad. Fish was not fresh, felt barely cooked. My partner's bean and sweet potato burger was pretty much just mashed sweet potato with something that tasted like marmite. I think it might have been the worse meal I've ever had in a restaurant. When asked how our food was we said it was not good and just got a pained sorry from a young server but that was it. No-one came out to speak to us, manager or chef. Pint was nice, chips were fine but it is not a gastro pub by the longest chalk. My partner did not want to make a fuss so we just left. Will not go again.

Very chilled place, live music, super kind stuff and delicious food. Highly recommend. 🙂 Edit: We went back two weeks later and everything was justvas good. 🙃

We have been coming here for a few years, always a great place to stop after a morning on the beach... Great service, delicious food, and idyllic surroundings.

Very charming country pub with tasty food. The atmosphere is brilliant and the staff were very friendly. I loved the pie, it was delicious, very good portions. There is a back garden with tables. Highly recommended.

Had the most amazing service and one of the best pub roast dinners I have had in years - and such a lovely group of staff - thank you 🙏😊

Visited for Sunday lunch. Booked ahead. Meat choice was Lamb, pork belly or beef - on white meat/chicken choice on roasts. Friend ordered the pork and beef-good large portions (£20 for roast). I ordered fish and chips, nice large fish with garden Peas, tartare sauce and huge wedge of lemon. Chips were a disappointment-sort of u shaped with middle hollowed out. Would have preferred more robust/thick cut with the the whole chip. Good service quick. I would visit again. Very popular as people double parking in the car park when we left

Perfect ďay sun was out. Great food and staff were friendly.

Really great service and lovely food. A lovely pub all round. It's not the cheapest, and our main course was a little long coming, but they did knock a bit off the bill for that. We enjoyed it and will return.

Dropped in for lunch. Friendly table service. Apology when food was delayed and offer of a free drink. Vegan bowl and Halloumi salad both excellent and satisfying. Good menu which included sandwiches as well as main meals. Definitely worth a visit.

Such a lovely pub. Great decor, great pints (definitely try the Long Man beer), a fantastic place for a pit stop mid-walking.

A great pub for a drink or meal

Table booking for 22 of us, so very accomodating and helpful. Food delicious, I particularly enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding which was sublime. Thank you for looking after us all so well.

Don't know how we'd never been to the Plough and Harrow before?! Dropped in there for an early lunch after a walk in Friston Forest, found a table in the lovely garden which quickly filled up..... Food was amazing, service, amazing, lovely atmosphere and great value...... Could be our new favourite Sussex pub..... I'm recommending!!

Excellent country pub & garden , great service with a smile , great atmosphere, background music 🎶 (a must for us ) 🙂🌟

Disappointing Sunday lunch. Overcooked roast potatoes & Yorkshire pudding, undercooked carrots & broccoli, bisto gravy. So so lamb.

We have been going to The Plough for decades. It is my favourite pub. The food is consistently good the beer amazing (the long Man brewery just down the road) and have always had great service too. Can not recommend highly enough.

This little gem is worth a trip out too. The sun came out, sat in the garden food was amazing, there was a delay but their customer service was 2nd to none.. and complementary drinks... A wonderful afternoon spent xxx

The main meal we had for lunch, was great. Unfortunately the desert was okay, but not great. Despite that, i would still recommend the pub, for the Great service, atmosphere, and great main course.

With my walking group this was an excellent lunch time eating place especially for the hospitality the staff provided. Very pleasant indeed.

Excellent Sunday lunch six people and three dogs. Could not fault anything. Especially liked the Malbec wine.

Visited after a long gap. 10 years ago I was outraged by the price of a rubbish par baked baguette. This time just wanted a beer. Sat at an unreserved table we were made to move when more profitable customers turned up. Don't pretend to be a pub when you treat people like this.

What a gem of a pub... Really nice food and atmosphere. Very clean and inviting. Loads of outside tables with views of the Sussex downs and county side. Carpark was reasonable size but would think it could be busy in Summer. Prices are comparable to other pubs and possibly lower than across the river in Alfriston. Had a fantastic meal and will definitely be back to try more of the menu. Looking forward to walking or cycling down from Seaford and using the beer garden in summer.... Update just popped in today (Friday lunch) no reservation but they did find us a table for 4 car park was filling up and a few braving the weather in the beer garden. Just after us a table of 6 walked in no reservation and that was the pub full. Thought we would be waiting due to being busy but food came out well cooked and tasty and in good time. Tried some more of the menu and still 5 stars from us

Only popped in via the river walk behind. Nice set up with a drinks and food hut out the back with seating available. 2 cokes and 2 packets of crisps, maybe a little expensive. Would be interested to try main meal inside next time.

I had steak and ale pie, Lotus Biscoff cheesecake, all delicious.

Great food at good prices plus a warm friendly welcome and service second to none.

Great pub good food and great walks

I have almost no memory of eating out when I haven't walked away saying "That was OK, but I have had better". But today I loved every bite! I will highly recommend this place in the future!! Staff was so kind; not overbearingly pushy or sweet... just a really positive experience! Thank you for a wonderful meal out!

Delicious pie. Cosy friendly pub.

Had a very nice afternoon, nice and pleasant, was a Monday afternoon though so couldn't comment what it would be like in a busy period (evening/weekends).

This is a friendly, hard working, more than decent pub in idyllic surroundings which is why I have given it 5 stars for everything. The food is better than most - the desserts are particularly fabulous - service is spot on and the place has more than its fair share of Syssex warmth.

Lovely pub with friendly service and a great selection of local beers and ales from Long Man Brewery. They have a game cabinet that’s great for kids, and loads of outdoor seating. Couldn’t ask for more!

The Plough and Harrow is an absolutely lovely pub. We visited as a party of seven with three dogs and were seated at a table inside. Our drinks order was taken really quickly and when we had an issue with one of the drinks they immediately remedied it. We ordered four Franco chicken burgers, one fish and chips and two beef burgers. The food came really quickly and was absolutely delicious. The chicken burgers were a whole chicken breast that had been lightly battered, with a delicious homemade slaw and the chips were divine. The beef burger was similarly really nice and had loads of fresh salad in it. Just wished the chip portion was a bit bigger. When the child's beef burger came the kids meal had more chips than the adults meal did, as they put them in little metal pots for the adults meals. The inside of the pub is lovely it has loads of fairy lights and old fashioned swirly light bulbs. The staff members were really helpful. There were lots of menus around so we didn't have to share and the whole pub itself looked really clean. The toilets were also clean. That was a good range of seating inside as well as outside in the beer garden and further down past the car park there's also an additional garden with seating. The Plough and Harrow is obviously very popular as it was very busy and we went. I can see why, we had a lovely meal and we'll definitely be going back.

The food was very disappointing. Two from our party had the chicken pie which was soggy and tasteless. I had the vegan bowl which was very uninspiring...basically a bowl of chickpeas and butternut pieces with the odd piece of kale and broccoli and a side bowl of boiled potatoes ! Very overpriced and won't be returning.

Visited today while having a walk, we sat in the garden as it was a lovely day. We both had a pint of the local long man ale, which hit the spot. As for the food my partner had a vegetarian cottage pie, which she said was lovely, i had the chicken burger, and it was the best chicken burger I have ever had.

Great place to stop for a beer and something to eat for all dog walkers

Wonderful food and extremely kind staff! So many happy dogs and one very happy me!

I have come to the Plow and harrow a number of times, I have enjoyed it each time, food is always lovely, the food was a little slow to come out, but that didn’t matter as you could taste it was freshly cooked, I loved the V cut chips, Staff friendly Can’t wait to come back in the summer and enjoy the garden.

I visited for a lunch and was told that I could only have a snack in the garden and then told I could have a starter but I would have to carry it to the garden myself. I asked where I could sit inside and was directed to a small table but then told I couldn’t sit there so had to sit at the bar. I found the staff very rude and disrespectful and the food was average at best. I will not be visiting again.

Too expensive. Nothing special.

This pub looks lovely. You definitely need to book here as we asked for a table, and it has always been booked up . The food looks great. we can't wait to try it one day. Lovely to see a village pub so busy and popular. Will definitely be going back and will definitely book a table next time . Lovely big car park too!

Average menu nice atmosphere great service

Really cozy and welcoming pub with excellent food. I'm only a Pink Gin woman do I couldn't tell you anything about the drinks Love this place

A lovely country pub and restaurant, good choices on the menu and a warm atmosphere.

Excellent food, good service. Absolutely satisfied!

Came for a meal with my husband. Tge staff are amaazing and I had the Venison pie. Wow... It was the best pie I have ever had. Well worth a visit.

Great food. Book to ensure you get a table.

Great pub post our walk in Friston Forrest! Food was delish 10/10. Long man lager was also very very tasty!

Starter was very enjoyable. The liver parfait was delicious. I had a pie for my main. Highly recommended 👌

Visited for Sunday lunch, fantastic lunch, great service in a beautiful location. Would recommend,we look forward to going back.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch here yesterday afternoon with the family. Attentive staff, delicious food and plenty of parking on site. We can't wait to go again.

We would like to thank all the staff and chefs for a wonderful evening meal for my wife's 60th birthday. The food was absolutely delicious and served by three lovely attentive girls. Nothing was too much trouble and a great time was had by all.

Popped in here for Guinness (perfect one) on Boxing Day. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and good service despite being very busy. Dog friendly and spotless toilets. Large beer garden too. Fantastic pub.

Great Staff and lovely atmosphere

A wonderful pub great food and ales and friendly staff and locals...loved it

Cosy, friendly pub. Food was okay, beers; a fabulous selection of independent brews. Log fire and quintessential old English pub atmosphere.

My wife and I visited for Sunday Lunch and we were very impressed. There was live music (they had a saxophonist and a guitarist) which helped create a great atmosphere. Even though it was very busy the staff were very friendly and attentive, the food was excellent and the portions were very generous.

The best dog friendly pub for miles. Foods always amazing. Staff are friendly, and location is perfect for walking your furry friends.

A very well looked after pub next to the Cuckmere river in a stunning location. Very friendly staff and the food is very nice. The menu has been laid out well and clearly marked for people with food allergies . I definitely will be returning here.

Lovely pub with such nice, welcoming staff. Tasty food and the best selection of long man beers. One bit of constructive criticism is that due to the sandwiches being quite expensive (£9) it would elevate them a bit to have nicer bread, crusty white or even a more upmarket ready sliced loaf would be better than the basic white sliced bread used. Small thing that would've made the experience 5/5. Thanks!

Food served quickly and hot It was ok but nothing special Chairs uncomfortable Staff very helpful

Just perfect for our family. We had a little area of the pub to ourselves, the children and adults alike had a delicious meal.

Lovely place, excellent staff, but the Sunday roast just wasn't very good. Veg very undercooked for my taste. Cabbage mixed with onion not for me. Peas might well have been local but were bland. Yorkies obviously cooked earlier in the day and therefore were like cardboard. I would love to go there again, but after they've found a competent chef

Very friendly staff, and the food is delicious, lovely atmosphere here

Excellent food and friendly service. Recommended.

I love coming here! We were happy to get a little table for a couple of beers after our walk! Sunday lunch service was in full swing, yet all the staff behind the bar were always ready to take our orders! And they all smiled

Lovely warm welcome and fabulous food in a fantastic homely pub. Will definitely be back again soon. Cheddar and brie ploughmans, beef bourguignon, fish/chips, apple/blackberry crumble and biscoff cheesecake. All delicious 10/10 thank you 😊

We popped in here for an afternoon cup of tea whilst out on a walk in the area . Lovely friendly service and a lovely pot of tea each, which was very good value . In fact, it was so good that we went back there the following day for another one . A very beautiful old pub .

Fast and friendly service lovely beer garden Great selection of Longman beers amd the Sussex burger was delicious 😋

What a jolly time we had. The food was excellent & the two young girls who served us were helpful & attentive. I recommend the Blue Cheese Mash topped Shepherds Pie

The Plough and Harrow in Litlington is a great choice for a Sunday lunch. The food served is of good quality, with a variety of options to suit different tastes. However, what really stood out was the exceptional service provided by the staff. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and attentive service throughout our meal. The staff were friendly, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was enjoyable. Despite the busy atmosphere, they managed to provide prompt service without compromising on quality. Overall, a great place for a good meal with excellent service.

Decent pub experience with a lovely beer garden and good food. Lots of local beer from Long Man Brewing too

Good selection of beers, including local Long Man brewery. Visited on a Sunday. Nice beer garden - plenty of seats. Went indoors for an early Dinner. Sunday roasts are the main items on the menu - otherwise a bit limited. Note the kitchen closes at 6pm on Sundays. Meal was good - but the “seasonal greens” was one stick of broccoli and some peas! But also came with a stick or two of carrot and parsnip. Good Yorky though.

Food excellent Unfortunately for me there were too many dogs in the pub as a few were barking. Didn't spoil our meal but we wanted to leave ad soon as we'd eaten

Excellent service. Staff really friendly . Excellent food will definitely be going back

Lovely afternoon with friends and great food.

Very disappointing as regards to dietary requirements, extremely noisy other guests, couldn't hear ourselves think. Gorgeous Chicken Pie though and attentive staff.

Again, whilst holidaying in Seaford I met up with another friend, his daughter and her boyfriend for an evening meal. It was my choice, so there I was on Trip Advisor checking out local’ish pubs to eat in when this one popped up….. and I’m so glad it did. A lovely quaint pub in the middle of nowhere, and I can only imagine how lovely it would be to sit in the garden on a nice summers day… let’s be honest we’ve not had the best of summers this year and on this particular day it had rained all day! Anyway, I had booked and glad that I had done so as it was fairly busy with diners for a week night, but that’s always a good sign. I had the shepherds pie topped with blue cheese and so did my friend and we both thought it was delicious, so would recommend this dish. I really hope to get back there sometime on a sunny day.

A little tucked away gem! Too busy for us to get a table, as we had not booked ahead. Everything was full, so we sat at the bar for a relatively light lunch. Service was good, as was the beer and food. My only comment would be that the Ploughman's lunch could do with an apple's acidity to compliment the cheese selection. We will return AND book ahead :)

I actually cannot fault this place, we often say to each other "where shall we go eat" and it ALWAYS ends up being here, the food is amazing, the staff are genuinely really nice (which is super rare these days) and the whole atmosphere is really calm.

We had a poor fish & chips here, the fish smelt and tasted like it had gone off. These things happen on warm days - it was more disappointing to be told that we were wrong and the chef thought the fish was fresh! Unnecessarily defensive attitude from the lady behind the bar, and I'd question a professional chef who is not able to tell when food is clearly not edible, which has made me feel it necessary to leave an honest review.

My personal opinion is the roast had been prepared & cooked a long time before we ordered it, then heated up to a ridiculous heat.

Sunday roast wasn't anything special,service was good but food let it down, it was very quick coming out from ordering and must have been cooked and reheated.

Such a beautiful setting for stunning food.

We went to the Plough & Harrow this evening for our ‘Date night’ many had recommended it, my husband really enjoyed his meal (Calamari starter & Pie for Mains) I am plant based due to allergies & fully appreciate that many places catering for such have a limited offer. That said, my starter was most definitely not fresh (other than the pitta) & my main which was cauliflower, Chickpea & Spinach curry was swimming in oil, no creamy curry ness to it. Our meals & 2 alcoholics drinks came to £68 - quite pricey & I can’t say I’ll be rushing back!

Great food, service was really good, dog friendly

This is a lovely pub and the service is amazing, so much so they tracked us down after we left our umbrella! Such a nice atmosphere 😊

Top notch veggie roast! Every element was spot on. Busy pub yet staff were kind, calm and efficient. Loved it, thanks all x

Lovely space, fantastic service and good food!

A wonderful find. Food and service were both excellent. We would highly recommend both the menu and wines. The location was an additional bonus. Cannot wait to go back.

JUST ONE OF OUR FAV PUBS AND OUR REG, THE EIGHT BELLS SHOULD TAKE NOTE , EXCELLENT FOOD , FRIENDLY STAFF AND GREAT VALUE

Awesome spot. Beautiful building, great food, friendly staff, speedy service and an all round top notch experience. The pizzas were a highlight! Highly recommend - thank you!

Stopped off at this pub on 16/8/23 whilst on a local walk for a spot of lunch. It was a beautiful day and we sat in the pleasant garden. The staff were friendly and efficient. But we were horrified at being charged £11.20 for a glass of mediocre French Chardonnay. Surely that can’t be right, and I should’ve queried it. There didn’t appear to be a price list for wines by the glass displayed which I am sure, can’t be legal. Anyway, a lesson was learned and it won’t happen again!

I took an elderly friend to lunch on an August Friday. The pub was well maintained, staff were friendly and we were served promptly. We both had fish and chips which, given we were only a few miles from the sea and it was a Friday, should have been a safe bet. Unfortunately the fish was distinctly old. This really is not acceptable. A pity, because the chips were very good, and the peas also.

Absolutely fantastic in every respect
