The best restaurants in Frant/Withyham Wealden South East

Popped in for an early evening pint just over two weeks ago, whilst staying nearby. Nice looking pub, real fire, friendly locals and staff. My wife and I enjoyed a well kept pint of Harveys Old Ale each. The following lunchtime I returned for lunch with my inlaws. I had the halloumi burger, which was very nice indeed. Well presented, good salad and perfect chips: crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Ale was a little on the cold side on this visit but still drinkable. I'd definitely return.

Genuinely great pub. So friendly

Another fantastic meal at the lazy fox. We tried the steak pie with cheese crust, and toad in the hole. Great cocktails and puddings, all served to us by the wonderful naomi. This is my all time favourite place to eat.

Amelia was lovely. Great food great service. Lively atmosphere. Beautiful pub. Thank you Amelia for looking after us.

Great selection of food and drinks and very friendly staff. Cannot recommend this local pub enough!

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Food superb, staff and service exemplary. Heard good things about this place and now I know why. A real gem

A spontaneous visit as we were in the area, but I’m glad we stumbled upon this cafe, a lovely place, friendly staff and a fab breakfast. I had the garden breakfast which was delicious, friends had the full english which they enjoyed. If you are in the area it is very much recommended. Dog friendly too. Great for walkers.

What a fantastic pub, excellent ambience, incredibly warm friendly welcoming staff , a delicious Valentines meal , great value and incredibly tasty . Great choice of wines available .

Fabulous Sunday lunch. One of the best roasts and staff were great.

Here again to meet a close friend for a drink so hadn't booked a table. Limited space at the bar but Tom, the manager, went out of his way and created a little space for a table for 2 so we could sit and chat. The staff are just SO helpful they really make this cavernous place feel special.

Sadly todays visit very disappointing compared with previous occasions. Food was not good and quiche on specials menu tasteless with inedible rock hard pastry. Nobody came too clear our plates so returned to the order point and flagged up the poor quality so hope chef was made aware. Prices have increased too and to be honest there are much nicer cafes nearer to Heathfield so won't rush back.

My partner and I have visited this lovely pub twice now. We have ordered food and it is phenomenal on both occasions. Lovely atmosphere and lovely and attentive staff. We are new comers and have been welcomed everytime with smiles.

Really great pub serving great food with a great team headed by Dom. The pub has a number of small intimate bar / resturant areas. Nice atmosphere with open fires (at the moment). Children’s menu available and dog “treats” behind the bar.

What a wonderful local pub. The hospitality is superb and the food is quality fare. We booked for Christmas Dinner and it was excellent. The landlady is lovely as well as all her staff. Always helpful, always accommodating and does her best to ensure you have a lovely visit. Thoroughly recommended.

We booked a table for Thursday Pizza night yesterday evening which according to the barman, was any pizza or burger for £10, which is a good deal and indeed, the pizza's were very nice and cooked to order, great. However, paying the bill was a bit of a shock. A pint of Moretti beer was £6 but worst of all, a small glass of white wine was £9.50 and with a dash of soda water brought it up to £9.90!! This, in my view, is a total rip off. The automatic service charge of 12.5% which they added brought the total bill for just two pizzas and two drinks to over £40!! There are ways of increasing your customer base and encouraging new customers but in my view this isn't one of them. A pizza/burger night for just £10 each is great but to then serve rip off priced drinks and automatically add, not just 10% service charge which is acceptable though I think should always be discretionary, but 12.5% automatically, is not the way to increase your customer base. Would I recommend this pub to anybody, NO, I wouldn't.
