The Witch Inn is now a drinking house so if you are looking for a well cooked lunch/dinner with a varied menu go elsewhere. If a burger and chips is what you are after perhaps they could manage although the chips that were served to us with an awful piece of fish were absolutely tasteless. Perhaps it was the chefs night off.

Sadly - our experience was shocking, the new waiting staff didn't ask us to try the wine or even open the bottle the food was so bad, I hate complaining but I couldn't not say anything. I ordered the burger when it came it was the size of a child/canapé burger. If my husband had been put this in front of him he would of laughed, I asked for no side salad and got 5 chips, the burger was so over done the cheese has disapeared! I asked for a replacement and told it would take 20 mins (we were the only people in there eating!) it took 25 mins to re-cook a burger. They offered us a glass of wine, great we thought nice gesture for it to then be added to the final bill. Over all it was shocking! Starter was a heated up frozen spring roll, I think its under new management ! We defo will not be eating there again ! This place could be a gold mine !

Had a lovely evening at The Witch. Family 50th birthday for 8 of us and we were very well looked after. The Witch was chosen as it was local to some family members and it was a great Pub choice. All the classics with the food, and some great beer/drinks. The only gripe and this might have been my fault in not making myself clear.....i asked for my tonic not to be poured in my gin ( only because i like to pour myself after a period of settling in the glass) but it came up all in one. I was taught to serve the tonic next to the gin and allow the customer to pour. But the food, atmosphere, serving was all of a great pub standard. Thank you Witch in giving us a great eveing.

Thank you Sophie and team from the Lindfield Dads group for a lovely evening at The Witch. I know we all had a great time, and to say it’s the first time we’ve ordered food, the shared platters and chips were a big success! The beers and food were delicious as always, the Dads were all able to get some well deserved down time, with lots of good banter and laughs had, and as always a lovely atmosphere, with such friendly staff. Thanks, Ant

Staff were lovely and very friendly but just found it very expensive with small portions. I have the roast beef which was nice but nothing special and was left hungry after, could have done with more veg, potatoes and parsnips especially for £20. I had the sticky toffee pudding for dessert which was lovely, but again felt overpriced for what it was. Overall felt like the portion size was a massive let down as the quality didn't match the price.

Although the food, wines and beers are still excellent, I was not as blown away by the experience as on previous occasions. The place was empty (20:00, Wed night) and therefore lacked any atmosphere. The waitress was keen to get our food order asap as I guess the cook wanted to go home. Service was excellent but it seemed very expensive

Firstly the service and welcome was brilliant. Our son who has additional needs would only eat his own packed food. When enquiring with this request Sophie said it was absolutely fine and when we arrived she made a point of asking our son what he was having. The food was excellent and I would say the chips with our Halloumi fries were the best. There were a couple of vegetarian options. The seating was spacious and being in the bar you had all the atmosphere too. Plenty of choice in wine and beer. We would highly recommend this place where nothing it seems is too much trouble. Truly excellent 👌

We had fish and chips and ribs and chips with pistachio cake and panacotta and rhubarb crumble for dessert. The chips were excellent as was the fish although the portion size of the fish was a little small. It looked like half of the meal rather than the full fish. The ribs were good but not amazing. The desserts were the real disappointment, the pistachio cake was a little bland although the panna cotta was very nice. The rhubarb crumble was mediocre. Service was good rapid and friendly but when we said the crumble was not too good (after being asked how the dessert was) the waiter said he wouldn’t tell the chef which suggests the chef may be a little defensive about his preparation? Still all things considered a good experience if a little pricey.

This pub restaurant is a real gem.It is a special food experience. There is a beautiful mix of art on the walls. The dinner menu is brilliant. Highly recommend the prawns or fishcakes as a starter. There is no carpark, but this shouldn't be seen as a negative due to the exceptional quality of the service, and food means that it didn't seem to matter.

6 for Sunday lunch. This was my second visit and again I was disappointed that my food was not hot enough. The food was tasty but not enough vegetables per serving. Those of us who had beef had virtually finished our meal before the mustard, salt and pepper arrived (basics). Suggest when an order for a roast is made the condiments are brought to the table before the food arrives. Ok but not great. Could be great with a bit more effort.

Nice little pub with beer garden, clean environment and decor; very friendly and approachable staff. Good menu selection although could improve on Lacto free options on the deserts rather than the stock "sorbet." Food quality was generally good, let down a bit, roast lamb dinner was luke warm and not hot enough when delivered. Roast lamb meat was probably the rarest I've come across, I like my steaks like that but lamb needs a bit more than raw to enjoy the flavour.

My first pub outing this year and The Witch did not disappoint. The staff were still super friendly and genuinely nice and helpful. I had Deep Fried Halloumi and Chips with delicious little side dishes of smoked hummus and babaganush. My friend had the deep fried fish and chips and asked for veg rather than chips and was given a lovely selection of fresh veg. As a non drinker they offered an excellent beer and Seedlip. It was excellent value for money. We’re very fortunate to have The Witch within walking distance and looking forward to returning very soon.

When i found out there was a pub named after my favorite car & gadget recommendation magazine i was intrigued to say the least, i mean this is what i pay £1 a month for!! The subscription was actually a Christmas present from a dear friend, however it was already on my christmas shortlist under the category "buy for yourself if nobody gets it for you". Anyway, on arrival i saw the sign, and its actually spelt 'the Witch Inn', assume they renamed it for halloween the week prior (clever play on words). And they are a clever bunch here, the way they cooked those pork spring rolls was worthy of Einstein, granted hes not known for his cooking, but to put the dish into an equation it would be 'E=get in my belly pronto'. I like to keep my reviews short, sweet & to the point, so ill end it there. Ill be returning after lockdown for more of the deliscious Rib Eye. Bravo Which?™️, ps. This months issue was 3 days late (but dont worry i loved the centre spread on washer dryers, absolutely gripping stuff, stayed up after midnight that evening!!).

All meals were excellent and I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. I’ve often had expensive meals at pubs where the food has really been a let down but this place is worth the little extra cost without a doubt.

My coffee experience failed at the first hurdle. £4.95 for a flat white. A coffee that could be "enjoyed" over looking a dusty car park, or from a hard looking interior with no atmosphere whatsoever. This is just nonsense. From two previous experiences I had looked forward to sitting on the balcony overlooking the vineyard. What a let down. I believe it is a legal requirement for traders to display prices. Then is none on show for consumers to make an informed decision.

Popped in here for a bacon and sausage baguette. Was very disappointed in the baguette. I expected more in it for the money I paid. Which with a coke was over 7 pound and all I got was 1 sausage and one and a bit rasher of bacon. Not value for money in my opinion.
