The best restaurants in Mid Sussex South East

Tapas style food was very good and the service was excellent. It gets very noisy when it is busy so you have to almost shout to hold a conversation (or maybe we just had a lot of noisy people dining when we were there)

Delicious food really well presented, amazing drinks and lovely staff. It has the most beautiful decor as well. Highly recommend.

Out of the 6 of us, 3 ordered a hamburger. I have never had a cooked tomato included - this made the bottom half of the brioche bun wet. The caramelised onion was virtually non-existent, there were no gherkins (as specified), paid extra for cheese which was 1.1/2" in diameter! Served by a restaurant which specialises in beef I was more than disappointed. However one doesn't like a fuss when a group of friends gets together! Amazing chips!

Great food, service is efficient, reasonably priced, clean and tidy, friendly owners. Will return again. Happy customer

Highly recommend this place. Food fantastic, best meal we’ve had in a while. Atmosphere great and all the staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing evening.

I'm a regular, great service as usual, lunch is very good value for money and tasty. Atmosphere is very relaxed, and you get a very warm welcome each time you walk through the door.

Splendide petit déjeuner. Je recommande l’avocado splash, un toast avec un avocat surmonté d’un œuf poché et servi avec des tomates cherry et des graines de courges sautées et cuisinée. L’egg Benedict est aussi incroyable. Le café expresso est savoureux. L’ambiance et l’atmosphère est une immersion délicieuse dans la vie d’un petit village anglais. Cosy and vivid!

I love this place. I've been coming here for Chai Lattés for some time. Not everyday as it's not in my town but a 10 minute motorway drive that's well worth the effort. I've now discovered their cinnamon buns which are beyond amazing. It's been twenty years since I've had a cake that could compare with their fare.

What a find! A hidden gem in the RH10 area, Pease Pottage. Had the 6 course Spring menu along with the wine pairing and it was exquisite. Service and food are exceptional, with a full explanation of each course along with the wine pairing. Very romantic and relaxed setting, with the option of a stay over. We will make this a seasonal visit, along with the odd Sunday lunch. You could also privately hire the venue for a special occasion. All in all, this was a fantastic experience and one I will share with friends and family. Thank you to our hosts, Paul and Rich, who clearly care about their customers, the food and the setting. 10/10 from us!!

Always good to sample Clough's offerings. We were at Freshmill for a day long meeting and you can order by phone and Clough's then deliver

We wanted to say a HUGE thank you, to Jamie, Krysia, Nikky, Steph, Sarah, Gill and the whole team for making our wedding the best day ever! From the moment we chose Pangdean we felt relaxed and nothing was too much trouble. We had so much fun, and our guests are still raving about how great the food and staff were and how stunning the venue looked! Nothing will ever top our wedding day - it was just incredible Thank you, thank you, thank you - we want to do it all over again! Love, Hannah and Rosie x

I’m not sure I really want to leave a review for this because then everyone will know about it. This is the most exclusive place in Hayward’s Heath to eat. It’s also the most unique dining experience I’ve ever had. Sam opens up her home to just 12 guests just a couple of times a year. She always plans an amazing and unique menu, something different every time, which is always excellent quality. She has such a love of food, vintage recipes that it feels a real honour to go to one of her supper clubs. Excellent value for money and super evening. I hope to book again! Please don’t tell anyone!!

Delightful little cafe attached to the church. Very friendly volunteers serving up a wide variety of freshly prepared light meals including home made cakes. Easy parking. Good coffee. Just two improvements needed - a few cushions for the hard chairs, and could try to open on more than 2 days a week

We’ve had plenty of take aways but this was our first visit to their restaurant. Beautifully decorated, cosy seating areas, super friendly staff and a great happy vibe. Great wine menu, nice to try something new for a change. Our pizza’s were superb, great flavours, really fresh ingredients and they were so good that we cleared our plates. So lucky to have this restaurant within walking distance of where we live. Coming back very soon.

Came here on the recommendation of others and really glad that we did. Great to see a local place that has genuine passion for what it does. The ciders were great, we tried a fair few between us (thanks designated driver) from fruity to traditional to the driest thing I've ever tasted - good to try new things. The pizzas were a real bonus - really tasty and a bit out of the ordinary too. We did have a bit of an issue with one aspect of service and I contacted the Cider Tap afterwards to try and resolve but never heard back. That did put a bit of a downer on things but overall, excellent drinks and spot-on pizza.
