The best restaurants in Bury Chichester South East

Centre of the village - in every sense. An idyllic place to have a coffee and croissant first thing.

We have been a couple of times to the Squire and Horse, and on both occasions the food has been fantastic. Good size portions and beautifully arranged on the plates.

The Forrester Arms in Graffham, Petworth is one of the best kept secrets in West Sussex. A pub with a genuine local friendly atmosphere added to a unique international menu with dishes not found in other pubs. The food, the atmosphere and the friendly and caring customer service offered by owner David and his staff are simply exemplary. A visit to the Forrester Arms Graffham for drinks and/or a meal indoors or in their beer garden is a must and worth the drive to West Sussex.

Chef Ravi rose magnificently to the curry challenge! I managed to down about half my venison and prawn curries, served with rice and condiments, but luckily my companion finished his grilled skewer and demolished the rest. Terrific to have authentic Indian food available in Graffham (on special request). Bravo to the the White Horse for extending its excellent range.

Thank you to Ruth and all the staff at The Cricketers. My family hired the lovely function room, to have my mum's Memorial get together today. My family and I had a lovely afternoon, even though the weather could of been better. Your garden was so peaceful, and we all went out and looked at your chicken/hen coup. The food and service was great. The whole experience was just perfect. We are grateful. Kind regards, The Shine family. ❤❤❤

Stayed here overnight to spend some time in the countryside after a busy few weeks. First impressions were good- public area and bedroom were stylishly decorated, spacious bathroom and nice hospitality tray with fresh milk in the fridge which is always welcome. A bit surprised to see a gun safe in the room, which perhaps suggests the clientele they're aiming for. On a warmer day the terrace would've been a lovely place to have a drink. This is very much a dining establishment rather than an actual pub, so food is the focus. Friendly attentive service. We enjoyed our starters, garlic prawns and beetroot salad, particularly as my preference for blue cheese rather than feta was accommodated. Mains were fine- pork belly (although the black pudding bonbon was a bit dry) and fish and chips, which I only chose as the menu was quite limited. Crumble was nice, but I struggled to finish the pear frangipane tart which was rather dry and stodgy rather than luscious and almondy and needed the custard and icecream. After dinner we would normally enjoy sitting in the bar with a couple more drinks or coffee,but by 9pm on Saturday evening it was pretty empty so lacked atmosphere and we retired early. We understand the difficult environment facing hospitality, but perhaps the relatively high prices have deterred the local trade. We had a good night's sleep in a comfortable bed with quality linen, although the central heating pipes are quite noisy. Attention to detail was a bit lacking in the bathroom -I'm sure they know the wall behind the towel rail needs repainting, but the grouting and sealant in the shower cubicle would benefit from a toothbrush dipped in mould remover, the lovely rain showerhead needs descaling and the vent needs a good vacuum. We also bled the bedroom radiator as it wasn't heating up! Breakfast was very good quality, the mushrooms in particular were delicious with good coffee. The hosts are clearly aiming for quality, and we enjoyed our stay, but it's probably more for a special occasion, as we felt it lacked the buzzy local country pub vibe that we enjoy.
