The Star in Mid Sussex

Amazing staff, great service, best pub in the area

Podge was amazing. Jed was lovely and i really recommend this pub!

Staff were very welcoming , great atmosphere. I came for lunch and had the katsu chicken burger ( it was delicious) and very well priced. Lovely spot to sit in the sun and have a drink. Will definitely visit again.

Delicious small plate menu, manager was super friendly and welcoming! I’m in town visiting friends and was walking around exploring. Popped in for a quick bite and I’m glad I did!

Bar man was lovely and friendly, very welcoming. When it came down to food, we were waiting an unreasonable amount of time for a cheese toastie, chips and a chicken sandwich considering there was only one other table waiting for food. Eventually we received a cheese toastie along with chips and it wasn't until some time after I received my sandwich. When going out for a meal you expect to all receive your food together so that it can be enjoyed together. When the sandwich eventually came out, the presentation was appalling and the chicken was extremely over cooked and inedible. The man behind the bar did kindly gave us a refund however, I was very unimpressed on this occasion, perhaps it was a bad day.

First time in Haywards Heath and just called in for a drink and we were made to feel very welcome, the manager came over and talked to us as if we were regulars. Would certainly call in again if we were in the area.

Stunk of sweaty armpits when inside. Had to sit outside which was nice!

We have been to the star a few times recently and would like to say it is the best pub in Haywards heath, friendly staff, clean and tidy, big screens for all the sports with great food and drinks at good prices.

Great beer, great atmosphere definitely coming back

Such a lovely experience at The Star. The staff are fabulous and dog lovers! Our pooch was welcomed with open arms which is a huge plus. Thank you for a delicious lunch #dog friendly

Pleasant town centre pub. Helpful and friendly staff.

Great friendly welcome. Lovely staff and good food. Will return!

Worst pub i’ve ever been to, staff we horribly rude and rushed food, no respect, would not recommend.

We had a super evening at the Star. The staff were really friendly and the food was good. At the end of the evening it was impossible to get a taxi and James gave us a lift home. Could not ask for better service.

Basic boozer but in middle of town with friendly staff

This is my local and I support this pub in every way. Lovely, friendly staff and always a great atmosphere, be it a space for a quiet drink or get together! Excellent spacious beer garden and the bar food is tasty!

Have been to this pub a few times now, most recently for drinks and dinner, service was great and the food was really good. Great atmosphere and the outside space is nice too, will be back soon!

Great night out staff are amazing lovely food

Refused service at 9.30pm told they were closed and stocktaking

First time in the Star, driven past it 100 times but went in last month. Big outdoor area so always get a table. Staff always nice and friendly. Will visit again with the kids

Nice location near lots of food outlets, good prices and great selection of drinks. Nice outdoor space too if inside is a little too compact for you.

Lovely pub. Good food and drink selection. Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

Been here a few times. Food is always lovely and so the friendly staff

Friday afternoon, very quiet, only sharing plates available. Around £20 for the three sharing choices and a water and tea. Service was very good, food average and atmosphere was ok. Food 2/5. Service 4/5. Cleanliness 5/5. Atmosphere 3/5. I would revisit but only when there is a full menu.

Didn't go here... literally sitting at the traffic lights 🤣🤣🤣

Good local pub, friendly staff's

I went in there with a group of people on the 14th December. The services was so slow. I ended up leaving just before 9 pm and people were still waiting for their puddings.

Had a family meal on Sunday (10th december) all 11 of us altogether! . The general feel of the pub was really nice with the addition of the Christmas lights and decorations were also a lovely touch. Service was great really friendly and accommodating. I had the cheese and bacon burger which I thoroughly enjoyed! Everyone had a great time will definitely recommending to friends.

I came here the other night for a few drinks and some food and I can't compliment the place enough the place itself is nice the staff are unbelievable and it was an all round great experience

Service is superb and the staff are customer focused, which makes for a great experience.

Lovely cosy pub, good choice of drinks and staff are very attentive. Child friendly, dog friendly, great food of food.

We werw visiting the town, from Spain. We had lovely food and the bartender was very nice and friendly to us.

Great pub, recently refurbished and very friendly landlord, will definitely visit again! Also, apparently live music on Thursdays, woop woop

Visited there on a Tuesday evening for a quick pint, turned into a couple more, with the recommendation from Jed I found my new beer flint eye, you have got to try it :) some nice looking items on the food menu will be trying when I get a chance, the Christmas decorations look very good not to over the top, but very posh. Will be back soon

This is great place to meet friends the staff are always friendly and their service is spot on, would defo advise a night out here.

Absolutely perfect turkey dinner. Also do lovely burgers and fish and chips.

Very friendly pub with great staff, the food is great and I will be back soon with my family and friends

Stumbled upon this passing through the area, amazing food, friendly staff and lovely atmosphere! Will be going again for sure!

The pub is so nice and well looked after and Jed the GM is very welcoming and friendly! I will definitely be back

Great atmosphere and staff, one of the few true pubs left. Had a great time, will definitely come again.

We decided to go to the pub today and The Star was our first choice. Yvonne and Cameron made us very welcome as did Jed and his little dog Bambi. A great afternoon. Will be back soon.

Great family pub Yvonne was an absolutely amazing barmaid he service was impeccable and second to none highly recommend

Lovely place and very friendly staff, i love this place! I love coming here seeing qml thé friendly staff

Arrived in the middle of a storm was welcomed by the lovely staff had a nice chat with them. Tried a couple of drinks from their massive selection that were reasonably priced. Then got some food I went for halloumi, that was great too. They have a big outside seating area with heater perfect for bad weather. %100 would recommend. It’s a lovely pub with great staff.

Usual pub food, quiet atmosphere, ideal for meeting friend for a chat,

Great selection of beers. Lovely, friendly welcome from the staff. Comfortable place to eat or drink and food served all day. I had a pleasant hour over a couple of beers, with my two dogs.

Delicious food, friendly staff, nice decor and reasonable prices - everything you would want form a pub. Would highly recommend

Delicious food!! Staff were very friendly and helpful, would recommend, it feels a lot brighter and warmer than when I was here a while back :)

The new management are working well, we enjoyed wonderful live music this week and great food. The team work brilliantly together. Favourite spot in Haywards Heath.

Had a great time, the manager was so lovely- she helped us pick our drinks and very quick table service with app orders. Also live music was fun, will be coming back

Such a lovely place. I highly recommend, service was fantastic.

Got the Korean chicken, chips, goujons and cheesy garlic bread - soo yummy and so worth it, also a great pint!

Good simple food at a reasonable price. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is good.

Great little pub with friendly staff, good choice of lagers. Did not eat but food looked good and was served promptly.

Popped in to The Star for lunch this afternoon great service and delicious food, really good lunch time menu i had Bacon Burger and a pint for £11 great value, well presented and great taste.

Tried to go on two occasions and it has been closed

Great selection, helpful staff and excellent outdoor seating area with ample space inside too.

Great pub, went in yesterday as it was the Bank Holiday the girl behind the bar was on her own but was still giving great service and made sure she had a smile on her face, shame it had to close at 8 but we understood. Will be back for food when the kitchen reopens as it sounds lovely and the manager suggested the pie.

Great pub, good food always amazing service there

Amazing service great food, speed of service was good food was hot. Had a pint and a gin the gin that the staff recommend was lovely and crisp.

It's a nice, traditional pub in the centre of Haywards Heath. It has a lovely beer garden at the back. Thanks.

Regularly go to The Star with family and dog for a few drinks. Big outdoor area so always get a table. Staff always nice and friendly. Not had food here but for an afternoon/evening drink it's great.

Great food, went in yesterday and the food looked and tasted amazing. The staff seemed to be trying their hardest but seemed to be a little short staffed but got service with a smile and great food. What more could you ask for. Will be coming back for lunch again.

Great service, Good Food, wish there was some live music sometimes but have spoke to the manager and she has said that she is looking into it. Will be back dont worry

Always a fun time at the star, the staff are friendly and the pub looks a lot better than used to. They really seem like they care about the place now, which is nice to see.

Went for dinner with my husband. They have a great wine collection and the staff were very bubbly and friendly. Great for drink recommendations!

I recently visited the Star to have a business meeting we received, Excellent service, very friendly staff, the food was well presented and tasty. A+

Great food and drinks , good for handing with friends good atmosphere lovely garden. has heating too 👍

amazing great times with the lads loved it nice flowers outside has outdoor heaters yeah nice cider

i orderd the chicken katsu burger and it was very nice, The staff where very friendly and i enjoyed sitting in the outside area definitely will be coming again and bringing the wife, the green king never fail !

Lovely environment and quality service with very welcoming vibes. Big garden which is lovely for group hang outs

Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Nice to try Inch’s cider on draught.

Great pub with fantastic atmosphere in town

The manager can get 5 stars, but the rest of the employee should be gone! The Manager does his job. He cleans tables, serving food etc. Whilst one of the employee eats his lunch every 20 mins. And when behind the bar can't even say hello back. Does he got an anxiety or perhaps doesn't speak a word? Another chatting with her girlfriends on mobile. This pub will not survive for long. The fence outside already destroyed. Toilet is dirty and stinky. Dirty tables are moving from side to side. Do not place your pint before you place yourself. Looks like the owner doesn't care. Just getting his profit from pints. Not the same as it was before. Lost me as a customer. Not recommended.

Still finishing my pint and writing this review. Unhappy! Stuff is rude and unprofessional. No training, no welcoming feelings. Feels like I got a huge favour by paying for the drinks.

Great place to start a night out

Just found out that between Monday and Thursday, that it's buy one get one free. It's from 4pm to 7pm... may try the food next time as it looks well nice. Ps, the buy one get on free, is on for different brands.

Good local pub, very clean and tidy. Good beer for Greene King.

Great pub for an afterwork drink on a Friday!

Nice alfresco beer spoilt only by the noisy BMWs of Haywards Heath racing past

Lovely atmosphere, friendly, helpful staff, traditional pub, my friend loves the real ale they sell. Good selection of wines too.

The beer was competivly priced and the WC furniture had been renewed since my last visit.

A great pub :) good for a beer or two! And a good catch up with friends, the manager Josh dealt very well with an issue I had.

Lovely local pub - I used to pop in for food pretty much every lunchtime when I worked nearby. The staff here are kind and friendly and the food is great.

Could not fault The Star. Attended on a Friday eve with friends after drinking elsewhere in the afternoon. Chilly eve, but plenty of heaters and space outside. Bar staff attentive and friendly. Coming from Essex/East London, I am wary of pubs I do not know, but I found The Star hugely welcoming.

Today I saw a young inexperienced drinker asking the bar lady for advice on what to drink - she gave sound advice about cost , safety and taste of various types of alcoholic beverages- incredibly impressed My own experience of the place was of a...

When I’m in Haywards Heath this is my first pub to go to. Can’t fault this place. Great food and atmosphere and Andy and Joe really know their drinks. Great place to go for food and drinks!

Bien pero los precios están muy variables

We were disappointed with the availability of wine. Two of the most popular wines were not in stock. The house wine was of poor quality. Our visit was early on a Saturday evening, so one would have expected a wider selection.

Atmosphere, food and the staff and the pub are brilliant

We order 3 tapas to share and they were big enough for 2 person. The staff was friendly and kind.

Fantastic little pub with a great outside heating area. Staff are very friendly, food came out quickly and was delicious. Try the steak and ale pie if you’re hungry. Cannot fault this lovely locals pub

Incredible service from a happy and helpful team, food was delicious and was a great environment to catch up with friends

Nice friendly pub with a good atmosphere.

A very happy family visit here, the children's menu is such good value and the grownups enjoyed the food too. We have always found the staff welcoming and friendly, well done team! The grown ups will be popping in again soon now half term is...

A great pub. Bring back pubs like this

Great staff ,helpful, friendly, food was excellent, all round good experience

We had a couple of drinks and food,was good food and 🥂, friendly staff and great service

George was incredibly helpful. Gave us our drinks on drinks on drinks and will be back again to get these beverages down our gullets.
