The Plough Inn, Crowhurst in Rother

Lovely country Pub, hard to comment on the atmosphere as it was a cold wet afternoon so pretty quiet but we were looked after. Food was lovely and fresh, will be going back in Spring definitely.

Enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch here. We arrived at out booked time, but our table was still occupied. Seemed a bit odd as other tables were not full , however after a 15 minute wait at the bar, we sat at our table and ordered our food which came promptly and was delicious. Roast beef was really good .

The Plough is like something from a postcard - an undeniably Britsh-country-pub with the beating flames of the fireplace at the heart of the pub. Whilst we know how difficult the hospitality industry is and we cannot deny the taste and condiments used in the halloumi burger. The burger itself was quite small, with a piddly cup of chips on the side, £15 later. It was a little hard to swallow.

The best veggie pie we’ve ever had! Really welcoming staff, great food and excellent service. The perfect pitt stop half way through our walk from Bexhill to Battle!

Cold, unwelcoming, unhelpful and the crushed new potatoes where full of grease. It's a shame as we are all local but when they turned the fan heater on and turned it towards the 1 person sitting at the bar we realised then we weren't welcome!! The waitress told us they had had a busy day and she was tired " we where the only table in there "!

Expensive booze. Moody staff. A local pub not welcoming of locals.

What a wonderful experience! The room are big and clean, love the aesthetic too. The breakfast and food in the pub was tasty and generous. All of the staff is really nice, and i add special mention for Melika who turned our welcome wonderful 🥰.

Lovely place to walk to from Bexhill. Their Sunday roasts are really tasty too.

£6.70 for a pint in a village .... Disgraceful !

Fabulous walk over from the old grove school to have a well deserved pint and portion of chips. Chips were big, fluffy and a good size portion and the beer was fantastic. Small problem when the buggy had a puncture but the lovely pub tram rallied around to find a pump for us. Would very much return and would also like to try a spot of lunch.

Lovely friendly pub which we often stop at on our walks. I was inspired to write a review as we stopped for a half there last weekend and had the Forged Stout which they have on tap. It was quite possibly the best kept pint of stout I've ever had, it was glorious! They do a good job on everything else too.

Very friendly landlady, excellent food, beautiful pub, garden full of flowers. Marvellous!

This was the local pub to where we were staying while in the area. We went on a Wednesday evening, and the staff were super friendly and the food was great. Highly recommend

Locals were not welcoming at all

Delightful village pub, serving fabulous food. We called in on a very rainy Thursday lunchtime and were immediately made to feel welcome. They provided a bowl of water for our dog without us even asking 👍 My husband had the most delicious fish and chips and I had roast veg quesidia. We wanted pudding but couldn't manage it! Maybe next time.

Staying locally for a few nights and were recommended to try The Plough, and it did not disappoint. Staff and service very polite and efficient, food was obviously cooked to order and good selection of beers. Dog friendly too which seeing as we have one is an important factor to us. We'll definitely go back before we go home and if you're staying locally I'd definitely recommend too.

Great food and excellent service. Had our birth lunch party here and great roast dinner.

Just had a quick drink in there because the menu was very limited.

Loved their roast. The children's meal option was great, and huge! They have some good cider options. Wines could be a little more interesting.

Had sunday lunch. Good food and friendly helpful staff and very dog friendly. Would def go again.

Nice pub in a great location for walks. Nice food if a bit pricey. Staff very welcoming and helpful.

Had a lovely meal with family. Amazing fish and chips. So delicious! My husband had sticky Guinness pudding with ice cream. Begrudgingly let me have a spoonful! Lovely staff, friendly and welcoming.

We stopped by for a Friday lunch after walking across Combe Valley, a great welcome from the staff and enjoyed a pint of Long Man plus burgers, chips and slaw followed by coffee - very nice. Pretty quiet though, not many customers in.

Hands down one of the best pub roasts I’ve ever had. I had the beef and my partner had the pork and we sat in silence making OMG faces as we chewed away. Staff are absolutely lovely too

A nice little country pub to have a drink and Rest your legs. I've not tried the food but by the looks of it the food looks nice too. It's nice that you have the beer garden out the front to hear the peace and quiet of Crowhurst village.

Very disappointed, having previously booked and arriving spot on time our table wasn’t ready, we were not alone, another 3/4 families were also waiting awkwardly in cramped spaces, while the tables were prepared. Once seated we noticed an invasion of flies around us (in the window area) so we asked for a window to be opened. We were told it was because the building is very old and flies manage to enter through any small gaps in the building. Umm! Not good when food is being served. Windows remained closed. Food arrived with further disappointment. Roast beef was like chewing gum, Yorkshire puddings were burnt and rock hard, veg over cooked and gravy too watery. Overall presentation not great. Service was standard. Food was over priced and very disappointing.

It was lovely, the food excellent. Have not been there for a while, as visiting family. Really good. Definitely will be returning.

£12.50 for a double rum and coke… won’t be back.

We were on a long cross country dog walk and we come upon this pub, so decided a beer and food were in order. Greeted politely by all the staff and with our 2 dogs we found a seat inside. We had garlic bread as a starters which is homemade and some of the best tasting fresh GB with cheese we have had in a long time. We both chose burgers but different ones myself, pork and chorizo my partner the beef burger. Both were plenty portion and fresh burgers not super market, well presented with what I believe were home cooked chips. I’m not a chip person but these were some of the best chips I’ve tasted in a long while. All the food was of top quality and great presentation. If your in this neck of the woods deffo stop in

Adore this little pub. It serves great food, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere,

We were looking for a good place for a Sunday Roast and the reviews led us here. We didn't want the 'amazing value for money' 'more than you could eat' type of pub so the menu and reviews encouraged us to try The Plough. The car park is fairly small but we were early so that was fine. As we'd booked we were shown straight to our table when we arrived. The Sunday menu selection isn't huge but covered everything we were looking for. As soon as we tasted the different main course we'd chosen we knew this was an excellent choice. The portions were a good size and it was all really well cooked and presented. The dessert was equally good and, like the main course, had a great homemade feel to it and tasted delicious. The service throughout was excellent and even before we left we knew we would be looking to come back in the future.

Excellent Sunday roast in this local favourite- always recommended.

Lovely small country pub, in village of Crowhurst.

We’ve been coming here for years, but unfortunately the roast now just wasn’t for us, the veg, potatoes, gravy even the apple sauce has been laden with herbs (so your whole dinner tastes exactly the same and is so overwhelming) and the crackling on the pork was so rubbery you couldn’t cut it. Such a shame as staff are great and pub is amazing, and table been put in front of their amazing fire so that probably won’t be lit either 😞

Everything was very nice, except for the Roast Beef, which was almost inedible. The Beef was very tough and most of it difficult to cut.

Really nice food and a perfect place to be on a nice sunny day

Stopped off here for food and booze. Decent beers, the food was great with a friendly service team. Everything you would hope for from a country pub. Muscles were well worth trying... if they are in season when you're there. Don't often give 5 stars but I think it's deserved 😎

Great sunday lunch with vegan and vegetarian options. need to book ahead

Lovely location and nice friendly staff. Poor portion for money than usual, with old potatoes.

Excellent chef-produced lunchtime meal washed down with a couple of pints of Long Man in a well-presented country pub: what's not to like?

Absolutely outstanding, been here a few times now for a Sunday roast and honestly it’s the best roast I’ve ever had, good quality produce, atmosphere is great, service is brilliant, beautiful pub, honestly can’t recommend enough!

Lovely afternoon for a pint and roast,dog walk after Catching up with work x work colleagues 27.8 2023 Lovely beef roast and keylime cheesecake for pudding Great service

Hadn’t been for several years and was hugely impressed with how the current owners have updated the pub. I had the beer battered cod, my wife had the bean and sweetcorn burger. I thought mine was possibly the best, fish and chips I have ever had! The samphire included with the peas was inspired. My wife thought that her meal was delicious as well. Lovely sunny garden, and great service drinks were also very enjoyable (cider, and long man beer). Hope to return again soon. Well done The Plough.

Een heel gezellige locatie, leuke bediening en heerlijk eten! Aanrader!

What a great find . Received a really warm welcome when we arrived from staff and the locals . Longman real ale was well kept and a good selection of gins (alcoholic and 0% as I found out))). The food was of an excellent standard especially the mussels and bread. A huge bowl of large perfect mussels.. no empty small or closed shells in a large bowl of the best broth we've had. Steak was great . Starters were very good especially the squid .. not rings of squid from bookers but proper tentacles.. lovely if that's your sort of thing. I tip my hat to your chef.. keep hold of him as he is a real asset. Road side pub with lovely views and garden Last mention goes back to the staff again.. really makes a difference when your met with a big smile and a "can do attitude" that is so lacking in so many pubs. Well done 👏 ✔️ 👍

By far the best Sunday roast I’ve had out, food is full of taste, just lovely

À la Carte Evening. Their first and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Great venue, tasteful decor with warm lighting. Staff a tad nervous but keen and friendly and no doubt will be operating like clockwork before long. Starters were Japanese inspired tuna dish, great textures and tastes. I had the main Tornado Steak, medium rare, great flavour, rich sauce that shone like silk. Perhaps a bit of colour on the plate would have lifted it visually a tad but I’m being super picky!! My friend had the hake and mussels which was superb as was the broth it came in. A side bowl for shells would be good. Dessert was chocolate fondant, cooked to order, warm and chocolate with sharp raspberry coulis and a cool sweet sorbet. Lush! The red tinto was a great wine and they have a great choice of interesting white reds and roses. There was a green tomato Bloody Mary between starter n main. Great but the Tabasco heat I felt wasn’t needed. But hey, great first night for this up and coming venue! Lucky Crowhurst! Look forward to the next event guys, keep it up and big respect to the chef. Loved it.

A nice, cosy pub with a variety of food and drink options and a lovely open beer garden to catch the rays. However, the 7 pints of cruzcampo the group ordered were totally flat. Additionally, we paid £7 for 6 pieces of squid, of which only five arrived at the table, as the waiter dropped one piece on the floor as he walked over and did not even realise or acknowledge it. When eating the squid that did make it safely to the table, the coating was unbearably salty and so overpowering that it made me wish he had dropped all six pieces instead of just the one.

Had a nice time in there chatting to some locals and bar staff...the Spanish lager on draught was excellent.

Had a lovely steak meal. Great picturesque country pub with friendly and attentive service

It's lovely to see the Plough being used to its full potential at last. Just needs a bit more indoor space for people who have just come for an evening drink.

I and others of our party ordered sandwiches, so why when they arrived were they toasted sandwiches? Several of us had crab sandwiches and what a disappointment they were, with so little crab meat it would have been more accurate to described them as salad sandwiches. On the credit side one of our party had fish and chips and another had rib eye steak, both of which weee reported as being OK. Generally in impressed, we shall not be wanting to go back again.

Spent 2 he's Walking there to b told at 520 pm that they shut . Even though it says open till 7pm on website . Lovely sunny day just no sunny welcome . Didn't even say have a quick drink !!!

My dear friends . Today I will tell you about this place.A quiet place with a pleasant atmosphere, greenery and trees around, located in a convenient location and there is parking not far away. The waiters are kind. The food is delicious and the serving of the dishes is also good, that is, well done chef. Beer fresh I love Guinness and there it is real. If you want to have fun and relax in the English style this is the place to be in the village of Crowhast. I recommend to tourists who come to England.

Atmospheric gem off the beaten track. Very busy this long weekend. Clean loos, parking restricted. Friendly bar staff and canine friendly. Loads of outdoor seating and cold ciders. It was a pleasure to visit.

Definitely need to book if it's a sunny day, they had run out of loads on the menu and were taki g an hiur n half to bring food out. Nice selection of craft beers on tap.

Very nice pub with great food. We sat outside and I had the Cesar salad. It was very tasty.

Recommend by my Daughter and Son in Law , we were certainly not disappointed! Excellent friendly service! and the food was superb!!! Would highly recommend.will definitely return again soon!!!

Fantastic pub, great food and drinks. Barman/landlord really friendly and attentive, which goes such a long way. Highly recommended

Nous avons passé un très bon moment en famille dans ce charmant pub, tout était délicieux, de l’entrée au dessert. Je recommande sans hésiter!

This was our first time visiting the Plough. We were welcomed by friendly staff, the menu had something for most tastes, the food we ordered arrived quickly and was delicious. Our wine was perfectly chilled and the atmosphere was relaxing. We had a great time and will definitely be back.

Had a lovely sunday roast we walked from our campsite to find this little gem lovely service, lovely meat and vegetables my only thing roast potatoes need to be a bit more crispier

We visited because of the positive reviews, and we weren’t disappointed. The Sunday roast was excellent (both meat and veggie options). They also serve kid size portions. We enjoyed our lunch in their nice beer garden. There is a private car park to the rear of the pub. We would definitely come back here.

One of the best Sunday lunches (owner recommends to book as it's very popular). Lovely beer garden and nice location. Very popular with walkers.

Great pub in Crowhurst. A decent selection of cask ales and proper menu. Worth a visit.

Lovely village pub. Very welcoming. Wonderful food. 😃

We walked out to The Plough and it was rammed. Great choice of beers and the food looked amazing

Friendly staff. Small and cosy pub. Has vegan options👍

A nice quiet pub and friendly staff. Nice seating areas. Even has a good selection of board and card games to play!!

My hubby and I hadn't been to this pub for a while and a friend of ours had recommended so we booked up for Easter Friday evening and had a very enjoyable meal. I had the scampi which was cooked to perfection (no wet scampi inside the crumb coating) and a generous portion my hubby had the Cajun chicken and it had just the right amount of spice (not too overpowering). The staff were very attentive and friendly and the live music set was a very welcome bonus. The pub was busy but in a nice way with plenty of Customers chatting away which gave the pub a nice vib, will definitely visit again and fancy trying their Sunday roast which sounds fab. Happy Customers Loz & Jacquie !!

Good service, good food and good beer. What else do you need ?

What a lovely pub, great atmosphere in there, lovely staff and the food was delicious 👍

Lovely pub, we stubbed apon whilst walking in the combe valley, dog friendly, Just had a drink in the garden. But will definitely be back to try food.

There were eleven of us with 12 dogs and we had walked from Hastings. I had pre-booked a table inside the pub but the owners said that if the weather allowed, we could sit outside. So we turned up on time with 12 filthy dogs, the weather was good enough to sit outside while we ate and we were able to move the tables to a configuration that took all of us. Both the service and the food were really good, I and a friend had the duck confit which was excellent. We all moved inside to the table that had originally been set aside for us when it got too cold and finished our drinks there with the dogs. The price was £27 pp including gratuity and all bar one of us had several glasses of beer / wine. The couple who run the pub were really welcoming; we all agreed that we will definitely go again.

Fabulous Aberdeen Angus beef roast. The red wine gravy & rosemary roasties were so good we ordered an extra portion. Friendly service made this a great Sunday afternoon!

Phoned up to book a table and the staff were so helpful when explaining the veggie options for Sunday roast. They even said if we really wanted fish we could ask and they'd speak to the chef. That's great customer service. Inside was lovely and cosy and everyone that served us was friendly and polite. The veggie roast was absolutely amazing - full of flavour and really generous portions. We followed up with the crumble of the day and it made our evening. Would recommend.

Vegetarian roast on Sunday was bloody wonderful highly recommended wonderful atmosphere and staff were the best think it going to have to be a monthly thing thank you 😊

Very good pub with fantastic food. Definitely will come back and recommend it to my friends.

Customer service is amazing and the food is exquisite. There’s a warm delicate vibe from the second you walk in and I highly recommend a visit

Great little pub 👍 lovely food and staff

Superb Sunday roast at this beautiful, warm, festive country pub. Warm welcome, great service. A good mix of locals and people visiting

Came for a Sunday roast with my fam, and had the absolute best time. Met the owners, who were so welcoming and easygoing, just a relaxing atmosphere I needed on a Sunday. Food is sublime, pork has the best crackling, and the served creamy leeks, just a bit of extra touch to a hearty meal. I would highly recommend, will come back here again! Also wonderful terrace, will be great for summer days.

Absolutely abysmal 😡. Table for 13 booked for a birthday meal at 18:00 At 20:30 we are all in another restaurant, starving hungry!! I have never been so disgusted by rude, arrogant and ignorant staff and new owners. Will never go there again 😡

Really friendly staff and great pub food. We came because kf convenience and were very pleasantly surprised Many Thanks.

Lovely little country pub with great food, especially the Sunday Roast.

Under new management. Good food and nice ambience.

The Plough in Crowhurst has recently changed hands, and is back on top form. The new proprietors are delightful, and they have a lovely team including two great chefs. The Sunday roasts are top-notch, and there is a very good range of fine beers. Give...

Heard its going to have new owners ,pub just needs updating plus toilets and outside front of the pub. Great pub and have visited over the years. Good luck to new owners.

Friendly staff, nice selection of beer, beer garden for sunny days. 3.5 mile walk from Bexhill through Combe Valley Park, the footpath to Crowhurst takes you straight to the pub - very convenient.

Very nice traditional and tranquil British country pub. Great service, good range of products not overly expensive. 0.7 miles away from Crowhurst Train Station, great little escape haven for the city folk.
