The best restaurants in Ardingly and Balcombe Mid Sussex South East

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!!

Nestled by the bustling Ardingly show ground, the Curry Leaf food truck stands out as a beacon of authentic Indian flavors. Not only is the curry absolutely delightful, but the service radiates genuine warmth and friendliness. It's a must-visit for anyone craving a true taste of India on-the-go. Highly recommended

Pregunta: ¿Vale la pena una calificación de un lado de la carretera de comida van? Ordinariamente no pero esto tiene que ser un caso excepcional de sí. Primero y van foremast está clínicamente limpio, así también era el aspecto de los propietarios extremadamente amable Dave y Emma, el menú era sencillo y honesto, con su habitual clásicos y una lista de especialidades locales que me apenó no pude probar allí y entonces. La zona tiene un amplio espacio para aparcar y en los días mejor un impresionante comedor con vistas a la campiña. Yo opté por un clásico, francés con bacon, salchichas y huevos que fue cocinado a la perfección, y más importante, preparado de una manera ágil, enormemente importante cuando el tiempo es dinero. En general, el van es limpio, bien situado, con una buena selección de comida y bebida, bien de precio y organizamos con carácter y encanto! Buena suerte y espero veros pronto!

Cosy cafe with a good choice of reasonably priced food for lunch. The owner is very friendly.

Friendly service; good value drinks and food. Child and dog friendly.

Xmas lunch large party! The best food you could have . Friendly service ... care and attention. Love it ......

Charlotte Andy an team always make a super experience. The service and food were just great. A massive step up from the usual pub grub

Delicious food, no waiting to collect, friendly service, complimentary prawn crackers and situated in a quaint village. Excellent value for money too. Cannot fault, highly recommend!

A pub that became a hotel and is now not quite either. Has both restaurant and 'dining pub' area. Reasonable menu and OK food. Bedroom was clean and comfortable.

This pub has been saved by the community who run it so was not sure what to expect but I have popped in for a pint and a bite to eat on several occasions after local country walks. On each visit I have eaten here the food has been first class and well priced, much better than many so called gastropubs. Service has always been friendly and efficient, I would thoroughly recommend a visit if you are passing . It is also dog friendly as a proper pub should be. Will be back

This has been a true "local pub". However, at the end of September 2023, the business ownership changed hands. This is confirmed by other recent reviews and a closing notice on an "A board" outside the pub. At the time of writing, Google has been requested to flag the pub as "Temporarily Closed". We look forward to visiting when it reopens, and hope the new owner retains the atmosphere - just to confirm, it remains closed at the end of February 2024.

The Gardeners Arms has been a favourite haunt for many many years BUT after a couple of poor meals and bad service we hadn't visited for a long time. Having been a favourite for so long we decided to try again and thank goodness we did. We had a lovely meal with excellent service. I'm pleased to say The Gardeners Arms is back on our list of favourites!!!

Unique 'older' atmosphere with welcoming log fire, wide food menu available all day.
