The best restaurants in Hart South East

This is what a pub should be like. Great atmosphere, full of village locals and a proper landlord who knows what he is doing. 10/10.

Fairly average fish and chip shop - I’ve had worse but I’ve definitely had better. The chips weren’t very well cooked quite long enough being a bit soggy with no crispness, and the cod had quite a thick batter that was a bit stodgy on the inside; both were quite greasy. The fish itself tasted ok, but completely disintegrated as soon as a knife and fork touched it. The fish was already cooked when I came into the shop but I was assured it was recently cooked (they would say that wouldn’t they?) Cod, small chips and mushy peas cost £10.50. The portion sizes were generous. The food was placed in a plastic bag rather than a paper one which is never a good sign, and would have made it go even soggier if I didn’t remove it as soon as I got to the car. Ok if you’re local and don’t want too drive far but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to get food from here when there are several better options such as Skippers not far away.

Always fresh home cooked high quality food. Best service, including the cocktails by Callum and Denis!

Nice enough but service wasn’t so good. Delivery drivers standing about taking priority. I dined alone, £50 + £5 service charge. I didn’t have much food either and only 2 drinks.

Excellent service and food despite being a member of a large party celebrating a friend's birthday. This was my first visit, and I would definitely recommend it.

My wife and I had a l table booked but upon arrival we were left standing in the middle of the restaurant (for more than 15 minutes) with no greeting or welcome from staff, nowhere to wait and no explanation or apology. Once (eventually) seated, staff didn’t seem friendly and were actually a little impolite. It seems that the restaurants policy is more about “bums on seats” than a friendly and warm service. Food was really good but atmosphere and service means we’ll be in no hurry to return.

We stayed here, ate here and drank here. Very friendly, Dark Star on tap, lovely breakfast and great hosts. Thank you!

Beautiful food, sensible pricing, brilliant service.... highly recommend

Haven’t been for years. Was always a great food pub and that’s what we wanted on a sunny May evening, sitting in the garden overlooking a corn field. My Steak and Ale pie was just real basic, not at all inviting. My wife’s chilli also looked pretty average. Shame . £37 with a tonic water and lime and soda.

Large, tasty, portions at a great price. First time I’ve used this take away and I will use it from now on. Really enjoyed the food. Ordered Saturday at 5pm and with us in 45 minutes. Loved it all.

We had an absolute lovely bank holiday weekend ruined by our choice to stop in this pub on the way home from seeing family for Easter. We all licked our lips at the sound of a Sunday roast on Easter Sunday. Unfortunately this decision has put us off stopping at any other green king flaming grills ever again. Our Sunday meats was stone cold veg was over cooked Yorkshire puddings was rock solid & the gravy just tasted like pure gravy powder and salty. We wanted to make a complaint and hopefully someone could have gave us a reason to why we was being served such terrible food on a bank holiday weekend. There was no manger around & no duty manager just a man on the bar so we just left a swore never to step food in a flaming grill again & shall be telling everyone we know to do the same.. Us giving the one star is generous

Friendly, fantastic Thai food, and a great garden for a sunny day (our daughter loves the play area).

My wife and I stopped at the Holiday Inn next door, and visited the restaurant for dinner. The staff and the manager were very attentive and very friendly. I had a long chat with the manager about how pleased we were. the food was good. Can not complain.

Congratulations is in order here, to be in CAMRA Good Beer Guide is a badge of honour, This is one pub that deserves it as the beers are always Tip Top Condition. As a fairly regular customer here ive seen the growth of Ale drinkers coming into the pub, and always great comments on the condition of the Ale, also always a fantastic selection to be sampled. Bottoms Up Steve and Staff, well deserved Coach And Horses.

We had a lovely meal with great service. Amanda, our waitress, was great. She gave good advice on food choices, and was very friendly and chatty.
