Village House Hotel Restaurant in Worthing - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We stumbled across this pub after a bracing walk on the nearby Wiston Estate. Our greeting was friendly, helpful and welcoming, we both selected the salt beef hash from the menu and it was utterly delicious. If the rest of the menu is as good as this dish, you will be assured of a great meal. The decor is a rather dated but don’t be put off - the fabulous service and food more than makes up for it.

This was my Birthday and I invited and I book a table for four. In the coldest evening we were seated in a room which didn’t have any heating. The radiators were cold and fire place only decoration. In the main room there were all tables booked so we sat in coats , not enjoying the experience at all. It was my idea because I was there for a Thai curry before and liked it. This time the curry chicken had tasteless chicken inside. I was embarrassed giving my friend this experience. To have in the winter a room not heated is a shame and hear that the customer will come and warm the room by their bodies was another insult.

came here for a nice roast after a walk, friendly service with most stuff still even though we were there a little late and unbooked. great dessert menu too!

Impromptu Thursday night meal for two. We haven't visited here for many years but had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Service was excellent and was matched by the food. Garlic bread to start, beef massaman and Lamb Shawarma for mains. A shared sticky toffee pudding with ice cream for pudding. Good was tasty and well spiced. A few pints of 'Proper job' IPA and soft drinks came to £65 to which we added service. Good value we thought. Definitely somewhere we'd come back to and also recommended to others.

We booked the function room for a family celebration. Sarah was lovely and so helpful and accommodating. Food was fabulous and room was perfect. Thank you.

I decided to stay an extra night in Findon as it was a great quaint town to visit in and the Village Houses made it that much more memorable. The pub is classic. Great drinks. Wonderful people and the food was excellent. It didn't hurt that it that the Inn Keeper is drop dead gorgeous and runs the place brilliantly. Makes you appreciate the place that much more. If it continue to raining hard and the train strike goes on will stay here for days to relax and enjoy the county side. Come to Findon near Worthing and stay here. You will love it and have a memory you will not soon forget!!!!!

The food was amazing and chef is always happy to adapt. The staff are so friendly and take orders that need adjustment, with no problem Highly recommended.

Went in for the Thai night and nice to see they have a Thai chef. Unfortunately the meal wasn’t.t as good as normal and didn.t taste the same as when a Thai chef cooks it. Also I have since had stomach problems since. Excellent service from bar staff

My 3rd visit to indulge in these really delicious pizzas. So here's the deal. Woodfired pizzas, excellent choice and proper thin base, Italian style. (Italian hubby very impressed!) all served by friendly staff. We sat in the garden early evening very relaxed. Pizzas are on menu every Wednesday evening. Don't miss out if you like a proper homemade pizza. (also takeaway) from a traditional old pub. This will be a regular visit I think!

I have several food allergies including being Celiac, so whenever I get a personal visit from the chef after ordering to make sure they know what I can eat, I know hospitality is at its finest. That’s what I got here at Village House! What was supposed to be a random nearby pub for dinner with my husband after a local meeting ended up being amazingly perfect and another find of legit authentic Thai food in a random English pub (which was a previous similar experience in another part of West Sussex as well). Long story short, genuine Thai food is hard to find in England... and this place has it! Food was fresh and cooked to perfection. Both my gluten-free Thai noodle stir fry dish (a spin on pad see-ew) dish and my husband’s British fish and chips were spot-on. Chef Nit understood all my food allergies and my craving for home-cooked unfussy Thai food. Even though we live a little over 30 minutes away, we will definitely be coming for dinner on Thai Thursdays now! Very happy to recommend for food allergy diners and for authentic Thai food fans.

Having read previous reviews we had high expectations but had some disappointments amongst the good stuff. The good: friendly staff, excellent pint of Harveys, great location and facilities both inside and out, roast chicken pronounced good by the two meat eaters. Good value. Disappointments: two of us are vegetarian and like al dente grub but not crudités served with roast. All four of us struggled with raw broccoli.Potatoes needed crisping up. Vegan nut roast over-cooked and crudely executed. Cauliflower cheese insipid and needs a stronger cheese. Happy to try again as perhaps the Fathers Day rush was taxing the kitchen but with different menu selection.

Visited here for Sunday lunch and wow is all I can say! The Beef was lovely & pink and very tender. Lamb was just as nice. Puddings were great too - Sticky Toffee & Dorset Apple Cake were very tasty. All food is homemade. Staff are very friendly. If we are in Findon again, we will definitely be back! Thank-you!

Celebrating a bunch of belated lock down birthdays we had a great evening. We all chose from the Thai menu. The sharing platter starter was so delicious. Plenty of beautiful bites to share between us. Lovely dipping sauces too. The Main dish seafood curry with noodles was one of the best dishes I've ever tasted. So much flavour and lots of wonderful ingredients. We all really loved the food. Desserts were also exceptional. So light and served with gorgeous ice cream. Great evening all round with our best friends.

Great old traditional pub. Lovely atmosphere nice garden. Good beer. The staff are great, the chef’s are fantastic providing wonderful food from traditional fish and chips to amazing Thai food. And the pizzas are really good.

No visit to Findon is complete without eating at The Village House. It was lovely to be back and the meals Oliver created were just superb. A one way system has been put in place which seemed to work really well. The restaurant was busy but not at all crowded. The service as always was spot on. Thank you to all the team for a superb lunch.

Booked a table for 2 for Sunday lunch today. All COVID procedures in place. One roast beef, One roast chicken. Chef Olie as always has such a flair for quality food prepared and served very professionally. How’s this for veg to go with each roast:- carrots, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, baked parsnip shavings, carrot & swede mash and a homemade Yorkshire pudding. Excellent quality and excellent value. 1st class.

My wife had roast lamb my daughter and myself had a large plate of muscles each with creamy sauce bread-butter and chunky chips absolutely beautiful. Friendly service didn’t have to wait long able to park easily, you can run a tab up go and pay at the end. Both wife and daughter enjoyed it definitely go again again.

Came here on a Sunday recently, they had a table short notice for 4 of us, a baby and a dog. We had the seafood curry and mussels and all had puddings. The food was so yummy and portions huge! We were all very impressed and will be back soon!

We eat out on a regular basis and The Village House has become by far our favourite place to go and eat. A welcoming friendly atmosphere with understated comfortable surroundings. The menu is creative always delivering a high standard of choices with something for everyone! Generous portions and all homemade with clearly a lot of love. The Thai / Malaysian food is authentic and Is the best I’ve tasted in the UK.Can’t recommend a better place to go and eat you won’t be disappointed!

Had lunch here recently. Two people had the fish stew, 2 had the home made chicken and leek pie.Fabulous food. Tons of shellfish and fish in stew. Pie was really tasty. Fresh and flavoursome.Faultless food. Only negative was no Thai food available this day, Wednesday lunchtime. That's always excellent too.

Consuetudine cenare nei ristoranti dei tetti di Lindos, dove una leggera brezza rinfresca il pasto. Purtroppo la lunga giornata ha fatto sì che le foto sono arrivate tardi. Comunque consiglio un piatto tipico “Calamaro ripieno con formaggio ( feta)

Came here for lunch yesterday after a great first time visit for Sunday lunch. Well it was the complete opposite. Order southern fried chicken which was bland tasteless and burnt, ham egg and chips well the ham poor quality and warm which was unexpected. The only good thing about it was the fried eggs. After waiting over 30 minutes when there was only 4 tables was really disappointing. Shame as the first visit was so great

This place is fabulous, not only dog friendly but client friendly too. Super welcoming for all. This is a hidden retreat with fine ales and excellent food was a great find! The accommodation is fresh, stylish and comfortable. Few places I would recommend so much.

I check out the RNR as the brewery had spent a vast deal of money doing it up, and it looks fantastic inside and out. The staff were friendly. I ordered a minute steak with a side of chips from the bar menu. I was taken aback to find the chips were not included in the price and I was charged an extra 4.95 for a bowl of French Fries. The meal in the photo attached is what I got for 16.45. I wanted a large glass of Chablis but when I found it was more than £11, I went for the Pinot which was still nearly 7 quid.

Visited here with family and the dog. The staff are very friendly and seemed to ensure my grandfather was well looked after. For the price, the Sunday roasts were very good. Good cauliflower cheese and veggie gravy for the non-meat eaters. We’ve been to a few pubs for Sunday lunch in the area and this one is the best yet.

My friend and I wanted a sandwich lunch and picked here as the food is always good. As it was a nice day we sat in the garden, I had a delicious ham sandwich and my friend enjoyed her fish finger sandwich. It came with a salad garnish. It was very good food. I asked about the tasty bread and they use sour dough from the village shop opposite. They slightly toast it for the sandwich, amazing. Will be back for another one!

Popped in spontaneously for lunchtime snack one Saturday. The sandwich choice is limited but the sandwiches that were produced were tasty and came with a nice side salad. However if you need gluten free you will struggle. The pub admitted they only get GF bread in if someone is staying at the pub needing this as they don't get much demand. We asked if we could have the chicken, bacon & avacado sandwich with salad instead but were told this wasn't possible, the only salad was the one on the main menu (at £13 was not what we wanted). Seemed a little inflexible, disappointing to just eat chips! Dogs welcome and nice enclosed garden. From 3pm they heat up the pizza oven outside.

Wanted to arrange a place to meet up with some friends , didn’t want to be in middle of Worthing , but didn’t want to be wY out in the sticks either , Findon is just perfect few miles outside Worthing , great village found this great pub , good selection of Ales plus a few decent beers on draught ,friendly bar service good looking food , nice lively pub .

We arrived here on a Friday night when the pub was packed! We quickly discovered that almost everyone was local to Findon, which in itself is a good recommendation. We thought there was no chance of a table at which to eat food but the staff went out of their way to check the reservations and find us one. They were incredibly busy but the service was amazing. We ordered fish and chips (which was to die for!) and it was freshly cooked and delivered to our table in no time. While we were waiting the customers around us chatted to us about the village and where we were staying etc, and made us feel really welcome. The pub is dog-friendly and so we were able to relax with our young dog for the evening in most enjoyable surroundings. Other villages would do well to take a leaf out of Findon's book!

It’s nice to visit a good old fashioned pub instead the the new styled inns. Staff very friendly and food excellent. This will be the place to visit for our lunch in future after a long walk on Cissbury Ring.

Went here to eat with some friends in the evening. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, they were all different but freshly prepared and enjoyable.

The Village House was buzzing with plenty of people having lunch. We were a party of 5 and all were served delicious dishes. My dad was celebrating his birthday and enjoyed his favourite meal of Steak and Kidney pudding. We also had tasty fish cakes, fish and chips and Thai Seafood curry. The service was very friendly too.

We had a great lunch today to celebrate a 1st birthday. The food was lovely and the staff were welcoming and friendly.

Their curry’s are amazing and the restaurant have good knowledge of gluten free! I would definitely recommend this pub to anyone for some delicious food :)

We had excellent food at this old English hostelry; the place is covered with original beams and low angled ceilings; walls are covered with a myriad of old oil paintings and original horse racin prints from bygone times

We love this place. The owners are really friendly and we always have a lovely meal. There were 10 of us and the service was really prompt and friendly. We had a mixture of starters, roasts and fish and chips and everyones food was superb. The roast dinners come with a really wide variety of vegetables, the leek crisps on the yorkshire puddings were a lovely touch and really yummy!

Lovely place, great food, nice people and spectacular country side. I hope that one day i will go there again!!!

Amazing sunday lunch, great fish and chips the following day. Lovely friendly locals and staff, second visit to this village pub and will definitely be back

Not impressed with scruffy decor on arrival, very tired grubby furniture...not just rustic! We ordered small roasts @ £9.95. the pork was tough the lamb very fatty and the beef leathery! The potatoes had been cooked along time ago and the vegetables were sloppy mashed swede ( half a spoon) a small broccoli floret, half a spoon of tasteless leeks in sauce and a soggy small Yorkshire pud. Will get a better deal ( and fresher) deal at a Toby Carvery !

Just popped in today on way home. Nice quiet pub with peaceful garden. Greeted by very friendly staff who took my order swiftly. I only ordered a sandwich but it was lovely! High quality ham and plenty of it . It arrived quickly and was accompanied by a side salad and a few crisps. Will definitely be back.

Eat in the Village House Hotel last night and had the whole fresh mackerel with homemade salsa verde - it was amazing, really didn't want it to end

My husband and I stayed here recently for two nights and were extremely disappointed. The car park is very small and when one is staying over night you don't want to leave your car on the narrow roads. The room was shabby..ripped wallpaper, doorknob missing from the wardrobe, a mirror positioned behind the television.. so useless. When you wanted to boil the kettle, the plug was near the skirting board so you had to get on your knees and put the kettle on the carpet. The bathroom window was open and wouldn't shut. The heating wasn't working and the bathroom was very cold. The door key was tricky to use. The central light only had two out of the three bulbs working and took a good 10 miutes to be of any use. There was only one bedside lamp. The only plug sockets were next to the kettle unless you scrambled on your hands and knees under the dressing table. The coat hangers were terrible...either plastic and broken or wire. The room was very noisy in the morning due to bring by the road.

Had best lunch great staff great atmosphere great pub cant wait to go back not many pubs like this one

Went to this pub / restaurant on a Saturday evening and once again is appointment started after reserving a table inside the pub and again we were given a table by the front door. Food took an hour after ordering and really the evening did not improve.

We booked a table in the restaurant side of this lovely village pub. On arrival we were shown straight to our table. There is a good choice of meals on the menu. We went for Roast Lamb, Cauliflower Cheese and a Burger. After a short wait the food arrived and it is very good quality and well presented. A great mixture of fresh vegetables was a real treat and perfect roast potatoes! We went for bread and butter pudding with ice cream and an ice cream sundae for pudding, yum yum! A mention for the staff who are very friendly and give the place a welcoming feel.

When you arrive you do feel it’s all a bit tired and it all needs a refurb. Then nice people engage with you, and the food arrives. Super food, great service, Harveys beer and really that’s the bill - wow. It’s a super village pub, great value and about substance and not image.

Great Thai food on offer along with traditional Steak and kidney pudding, Great value. The Cornish beer is a real treat, always a busy packed pub full of village atmosphere. Helpful staff.

Came on Monday for lunch and it was really nice,lovely setting and lovely staff, really nice area and will definitely be back again

Food here is cooked from fresh produce; we had both fish and meat dishes during our 2 day visit to Findon; the food was excellent

This is a lovely village pub with a friendly locals atmosphere where all are welcome. Good selection of Ales and a good menu. Food and service is very good and a welcome change from your typical ' Brewery Chain' foods and décor. Nice for a night out with friends, but perhaps not so well suited to a quiet romantic dining experience.

Annual visit to family in village and always book a table for a very enjoyable family lunch. Good old fashioned dining. Long may it last.

Super gemütlicher Pub. Hunde sind in der Gaststube willkommen. Freundliches Personal. Probiert Fish & Chips - besser geht nicht ...

Went for dinner with a friend and on a Wednesday evening it is Thai night which suited my friend but...

We had a voucher for a free meal and it wasn't even worth that. The "dining room" was in the...

Nos alojamos por una noche, cena y un gran sueño. Camarera en el desayuno era genial también!

Llamado para una semana de almuerzo. Primera visita. Recibió un camarero muy malhumorado que aparentemente dejó su habilidades de servicio al cliente en casa ese día. Afortunadamente la señora de entregar la comida era mucho más agradable. Sentado en el jardín, pero soportado ruido y...

Nos permitieron registrarnos temprano por un personal amable. El lugar es muy antiguo pero limpio y con un ambiente acogedor. La ropa de cama era prístina y la cama era muy cómoda. La habitación y el baño parecía que podía hacer, pero en realidad estaba tan limpia y cómoda que quedamos contentos. Mi marido incluso registró el piso del armario, que estaba limpia, no esperaba eso! El desayuno era delicioso y de nuevo, el personal era amable y educado.

Aparecimos aquí en nuestro camino a casa y tuvimos una comida muy sabrosa. La comida perfecta, fresca y buena pub relación calidad-precio. Nos complace descubrimos este lugar y definitivamente regresaré ya había algo en el menú para todo el mundo.

We visited one evening and found that this pub served a Thai menu together with a regular pub menu. We all opted for the Thai menu, we all chose different mains (sharing the starter platter) but were able to taste each others food. The meals were stunning. We cannot wait to visit again. The staff were attentive and polite, the service was excellent - a great experience.

In the quest to find the best pub Sunday lunch this is top of our list. First you can order large or small (small was just fine), food was vey good, service really friendly and good value.

Thai night in the restaurant/pub I had the seared steak Thai green curry which was very tasty and steak seared to perfection. Lovely real beer, I had a couple of pints of "devils dyke" ale. The service was very friendly and prompt. This pub has a great atmosphere

Great food and service. A family run pub. Always busy so perhaps it would be best to book in advance. You wont be disappointed

Have been here several times and again not disappointed. The bar area was full and the restaurant also full- always a good sign.Great food, reasonably priced. Highly recommendedBooking for the restaurant essential.

Went for a meal with friends. Food was fantastic. Lovely pub meal and very good service. Thoroughly recommended.

Have to say my Northern Thai Chicken was wonderful. Others on our table had main courses that show off the quality of the kitchen staff. All of us chose the fish cake starter which was very tasty, fresh and filling. Recommend to anyone.......

I was staying here last friday and having eaten at the Fish Factory in Worthing at lunchtime it wasn,t until around 8-30 that I started feeling hungry.I decided on the slow cooked beef brisket chilli which was served up with rice sour cream and corn chips.It was very good,having a nice heat to it without being over powering.The portion wasn,t massive but was ample.Service was friendly and efficient and for £10-95 it was very good value.The breakfast the next morning was also very good.The range and type of food here was very interesting as one of the chefs is Thai so plenty of options for the more adventurous person.It was very busy ,a good sign.

exceptionally well cooked good quality food at a decent price. the waitress could not have been more accommodating to my dietary needs. will definitely go again.

We were staying the night (a Friday) and already busy in the bar when checking in, so immediately booked for dinner. Cheerful and friendly staff with a hands-on owner overseeing and checking in with patrons, ensuring all ran smoothly. Fairly standard pub menu, but plenty of options including a specials board. Food portions were of a good size, tasty and cooked well. Did order dessert when convinced by the owner, however could only squeeze in ice-cream (but 3 scoops).

Service with a smile good value. A menu that had differing meals that were home made and very reasonable

As we were staying at the Pit Stop we popped in for some refreshments. The building itself is hundreds of years old but the decor although comfy is dated and in need of updating. The bar was busy with local folk eating about 6pm but we went off for a walk and returned after 8pm to find the bar was now very quiet.Having eaten earlier we just ordered a fish sharing platter. What we got was plentiful, tasty & well presented so didn't even manage to finish the meal. The ale was really good too.

The food was not overly imaginative but well presented and prepared so very satisfactory. A little noisy but I am sensitive. If you want a good meal well served and a caring and courteous host do try it. Doubt you wil be disappointed. Nice wines and ales too.

I normally avoid eating Indian or Thai food in a pub as it is invariably disappointing. Delighted to say that this is the exception. Wednesday night is Thai night at Village House - best I have ever eaten. Nothing like the off-site prepared stuff you get at the chains - everything here is cooked to order from fresh ingredients, and bursting with flavour. Lovely tapas style starters, with spicy pork bites with beetroot exceptional.The main was a sea bream fillet cooked to perfection with simply gorgeous red veg curry, full of galangal and enormous lime leaves with more amazing flavours. Can't wait to return again to Findon on a Wednesday just to eat more of this wonderful fare. Fantastic value at £14.95 for two courses, good choice of wines at reasonable prices and heavenly desserts - couldn't ask for more!

I was in the area with my Dad and son ahead of running the Brighton Marathon. Our room at the Findon Pitstop was rather disappointing so it was a relief to have such a lovely meal at the Village House. The staff were friendly and the service good, with excellent food thrown in (steak, thai burger and pasta dishes). My son was disappointed we couldn't come back for dinner on the Sunday evening! Highly recommended if you're in the area.

We had an event catered for at quite late notice and the food was exceptional. It was a buffet for 60 people and every part was excellent. All home made/prepared and thoroughly enjoyed and commented on by everyone. Great, relaxed atmosphere and we were made to feel very welcome.

After being recommended to the village house for a family birthday meal I was absolutely amazed with how incredibly disappointing this restaurant truly is. After booking a month in advance. There was no one to greet us at the door and the place looked like an utter shambles with no staff to be seen. We were seated on a tiny table by a young girl with an attitude who looked like we were a complete inconvenience to be there. The menu showed a variety of roast dinners, however we were told they had run out of roast dinners with no apology at all. There was only 3 mains on the menu to choose from and we decided to leave shortly after. With high expectations of this place the experience was disappointing and there was no apology considering it was a birthday meal for 6 people. I would recommend anyone reading this to not choose this restaurant if you are celebrating an occasion as you will only be disappointed by the rude staff and lack of food this restaurant has available.

Always seem to get good food here.Dog friendly as well. Fish and chips always good, have heard theyhad a connection with silverthornes, a chip shop that used to be in montague street and was know for quality.

I have the Thai Crab Cakes with chips for a main and the were lovely. Our friend had Calamari, we shared the chips. My husband had the house Burger which he said was very good. The staff were lovely, attentive but not intrusive. Thank you for a lovely meal.

We were looking for food in this lovely village and had the choice of two pubs, one Asian restaurant and one high class bistro restaurant, all within view of each other so you can check them out easily before committing yourself. We chose The Village House because it suited our mood. Built in 1527 there was a cosy atmosphere. It was obviously popular, I suspect with a predominantly local clientele. The buzz was of conversation rather than overloud music. As usual I went for the real ales and was delighted to see a range that were new to me. I thoroughly enjoyed "Devil's Dyke" a well rounded local porter, delicious. The blackboard menu suggested that we were in the hands of an adventurous and talented chef. There were only 8 main courses, average price £12, but that ensured an interesting selection, that remained within the control of a small kitchen. We both had the seafood casserole which was superb, if the rest of the menu was as good I could eat here happily for a very long time.

I have always enjoyed my visits and the food served has always been very good. Simple dishes done well has to be good strategy and "The Village" does this exceptionally well. And as the place always seems to be busy this suggests my experiences are in line with the norm. Excellent ale quality (and temperature) too which is always a good indication that the owners know what they're doing. Seems like they only hire top class efficient and friendly staff as well.

Went for Sunday lunch with friends and have to say the food was beautiful. My friend had steak and kidney pudding, which he said was the best he had ever tasted! The pork and lamb roast that two of us had was succelent and well cooked, with a good selection of vegetables, roast potatoes plus yorkshire pudding came with all roasts. My husband took the lamb stew, he also said his was very tasty. The puddings were well presented and tasted yummy. Service was excellent, the girls very attentive. All in all will certainly be going back soon.

Very overrated. Might be handy for locals however, beer very expensive. Food also really expensive for the quality and there is no consistency. At these prices for pub food when considering their food standards rating has dropped to 2 last year it is not acceptable and a bit of a joke really. Will definately not return.

Another successful lunch time visit.Visited on a Tuesday and the bar packed and full of buzz. Plenty of people eating and the menu is varied with lunch time specials. Worthy of a visit.

Comfortable stay, staff very warm & friendly. Was served an outstanding breakfast by a very friendly & welcoming lady. I wish I had dinner here last night! I would recommend a stay here.

Visited for a family celebration lunch for about 25, which just about filled their restaurant. A nice old pub/restaurant serving good home-made dishes from a wide menu. The pub part is pretty traditional, with a separate room for dining -nice old building, full of character. If it was my local I'd be using bit a lot!

Again eaten here many times over the years, always good quality nice choices and friendly staff. We're spoilt for choice in this village, but we always come back here!

What a fantastic find. Just stopped one quiet mid-week afternoon in need of some lunch and was served a delicious monkfish and king prawn red thai curry. It was very reasonably priced and the portion generous - I was chuffed. Enjoyable to sit out in the garden and eat such lovely food! Decor a little tired but I think the service and food makes up for it!

OK we visit the VH on a regular basis so regard it as our local but with other good options nearby we are spoilt for choice so could go elsewhere. Tops for us is the friendly service - everybody is welcoming and very attentive. Sometimes the menu choices can be a little limited but the food is always enjoyable. This is a well run establishment which we recommend wholeheartedly.

My wife and I visited today for lunch, access and parking is easy but allow a little extra time during busy periods as their lunch service was quite busy today. Their menu is wide and varied, catering for most tastes, appetites and budgets.My wife had the chicken and tarragon pie, I had the monk-fish and prawn Thai green curry. The pie was superb with just the right amount of tarragon flavour and the veg was perfectly cooked. My curry was also superb, accompanied by properly cooked rice, good quality prawn prawn crackers and chilli dipping sauce. Even the mandatory bay leaves were present. Absolute quality.Conclusions:If I'm pressed to mention minor faults, interior decoration is starting to look a bit tired and the tile grouting in the gents toilets would benefit from a steam clean around the sink area. I did however like the electric hand-drier, reminded me of once standing near a Vulcan Bomber when the pilot was reving up the engines for take-off !Prices are very reasonable for this area.Service is well above the norm, I think everyone in that busy bar / restaurant area got a visit from the waitress checking everything was OK with their meals.Recommendations:Go by bus, it's a regular service and stops almost on the pub's doorstep. It would also give the real ale drinkers an opportunity to sample their extensive range of beers and lagers.

For food, drinks and service the bar and restaurant deserve a higher ranking.My wife and I have twice had the 'Two dine for £25 including a bottle of wine, (two courses)'. This is superb value and an excellent menu to choose from, shame it's only on offer on Tuesday nights! The food is wonderfully presented and of excellent quality. Should you wish to choose from the varied menu on the blackboard, again you will be very satisfied. It is difficult to believe that a village pub/hotel can offer such a selection and quality. We have eaten there may times and will continue to do so.

We hosted a wake here after a funeral at Worthing Crematorium. The location is very convenient, in the centre of the village of Findon and just on the opposite side of the dual carriageway past the crematorium. The publican tried hard to please and provided a generous spread of sandwiches, pastries, cakes and hot nibbles, together with tea and coffee for a reasonable price.There was no pressure for our guests to buy alcohol, but it was available. The pub is an old coaching inn and the traditional style room with a lovely fireplace and wooden beams was just right for a party of 25-30 people. We were very pleasantly surprised with the pub because it was not amongst the top 3 that our undertaker recommended. I would wholeheartedly recommend for a small-ish wake or party.

We booked for one night as a stop over before going on to our destination the next day its a 500 year old coaching house so you expect quirkiness the room was a good size and was very clean but the carpet could do with a clean the room was warm and the bed was comfortable except there was no headboard we also had a meal the restraint bar was very busy and the place had a good feel to it food was very nice and was served quick the staff were very pleasant and were an asset to the pub the breakfast was also very good all in all it was a good experience and I would recommend for a quick stop over

We enjoyed our food even though my steak was medium instead of rare and my husbands Veal Milanaise was huge. We asked to take away the cheese board from the menu which was packed for us in boxes, but when we opened them there were a few cheeses and crackers with no butter, chutney or grapes that we would have expected if we had stayed at the restaurant to eat them. All in all I didn't think it was good value for money.

Arrived late after a longish trip from Devon, 1st place that looked like it did B & B was here and so in I go..Friendly barmaid was very accommodating lol ;) Landlord was extremely helpful and showed us to the oldest part of the pub, some 500 years old! Lovely quaint clean room. Comfy nights sleep and an amazing full english breakfast. Well done the Village House, you're an asset to your beautiful little community..Thank you

This is my first time visiting restaurant. I have really enjoyed my lunch at the Village House , the atmosphere was amazing , it is a nice friendly restaurant in Findon. I recommend the Fish and Chips, for pudding Chocolate Brownie Sunnde or Banana Pecan Sunnde

I have visited the Village House many times in the past but not for a while.Had cause to visit with a colleague for a business meeting earlier this week.Very friendly staff, the Village House is a combination of a friendly pub, restaurant and hotel set in the lovely village of Findon just north of Worthing.My colleague decided on a steak. I must confess that whilst I enjoy steak I often find that restaurant steaks fail to come up to expectations but as we were quite late I thought it would be easier if we had the same meal.Good choice!The steak was quite superb, cooked perfectly, full of taste and beautifully tender.I then decided to go for the creme brulee which was again excellent.A very, very good meal.

Sunday Lunch, excellent choice of roasts, massive portions, exceptional value for money. The service is good as well, the only downside was the screaming child, but that is outside their control.

This is our favourite pub in Findon. The atmosphere is great and the staff are really friendly. Its a really nice informal village pub and the food is great too. The Thai curries are fantastic and there is a large choice of other food. If you are looking for a relaxed lunchtime/evening meal in a lovely village then you can't go wrong with this venue.

Drink here regularly and always have a great pint of harveys. Just eaten a lovely Thia red duck curry. And I can also recommend the Fish and chips. Large beer garden for the few summer days we have. Friendly staff that always make us feel welcome. Well worth a visit! Proud to call it my local.

The food was lovely, excellent value for money. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Good menu Choice , the beer good. Whats not to like?

We stayed at the Village House in Findon for a weekend break. Our party used two doubles and one single room. All three rooms were clean and well stocked with towels, soaps, shampoos, biscuits and chocolate. the beds were comfortable. Each room has at least a TV, hairdryer, wardrobe and en-suite.The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful, our breakfast was superb, and was served by very polite staff. We did not eat there in the evening for no other reason than we were elsewhere with relatives, but the menu looked good and varied.The owner has a small dog and dogs are allowed in the bar, so as long as you are not allergic to them this is the place to consider.
