The best restaurants serving British food in South East

Play area always closed!! indoors and outdoors closed. Staff said they’re not earning enough to open the play areas, last year they cancelled my nephews birthday party on the day of the party (due to staffing issues) the place is a let down. Should be sold to someone who can actually run a restaurant and play area as normal. Taylor waste of a venue. Also the food is crap 💩

It’s a very decent pub/hotel. Th architecture is lovely, but treat this as a bonus; the pub is a pub doing very nice up-market pub food. We lives everything we ordered. The staff were a little over-worked but worked hard and were responsive. We shall go again.

Staff are always really friendly and attentive. Our waitress noticed our mains had been some time since our starters(we didn’t even notice as we’re busy chatting) she chased up the kitchen, told us there had been a ticket issue, apologised and gave us a free round of drinks. Over and above, what excellent service! Really good and excellent value.

Poor. Expected a lot more from reviews and comments. Food was ok. Quantity average. Service good. Quality not great. Most dishes overcooked. Chain pub chain quality and not value for money.

We have heard a lot of good things about this place, saying its the best Sunday roast they've ever had. So we thought let's give it a go. Well I had the roast beef which was very nice and tender, the wife had the roast loin of pork, which she said was actually quite dry, served with all the trimmings. I would say it was nice, but certainly not the best and at £16 each was it worth it? Maybe. Will we go again? Probably not.

On approaching the restaurant walked past 3 kitchen staff smoking sitting on the grit bins. Booked table online as thought maybe busy but was surprised to find it quite quiet, took ten minutes to get the attention of the waitress to order our drinks and food and then another 50minutes for me to ask and point out that our food was waiting on the serving hatch for the last 5minutes. And then waited an age for us to be offered the desert menus to de the staff then clearing a table that had been left for an hour. The salad bar was poor and half empty and hearing families being told it would be an hour and half for a table when there was only a max of 4 tables with people eating didn’t seem right. On speaking to a staff member was told it was because they have been taken over by the hawth and half the staff have been sacked and the the rest have been cut right back so was only two serving staff on shift.

Beautiful old traditional pub, right in the heart of Warnham. Plenty of parking, but be careful the car park is a little tight in places. Nicely kept and presented, with indoor and outdoor seating, the beer garden is beautiful. Quite narrow in places inside, with some steps. The pub is dog friendly. The bar is well stocked with a good range of on tap beers, lagers, spirits and soft drinks. I was even offered a taste of the ales and talked through them before I purchased one. You cannot in any way fault the service, all of the staff were polite, friendly and attentive. Not often you find a welcome like this. The food was very good indeed, very well presented, nicely cooked, tasty and a real plate full. My only minor issue, I felt the steak was basic and not quite worth the cost. Then there is my pet hate, plastic sauce packets belong in a fast food chain, not in a beautiful restaurant like this, come on guys! Very good value for money, coming in at around £176 for four, including three course meals, drinks, wine and coffee. None of our party had any issues and we would quite happily eat here again. Well done to all at the Sussex Oak.

Amazing Service! Shannon was Brilliant. She was very Kind and enthusiastic highly recommended for the time and Customer Service

Absolutely fabulous, did not expect the level of service we had, phenomenal food, service was exceptional, cannot fault

Beautiful pub Nice atmosphere and location I had the roast chicken sunday roast The potato's needed cooking more and the yorkshire pudding was huge and looked great but was basically a big dry crisp and not enjoyable, at £22 i expected a decent roast, I wouldnt have a roast here again unfortunately

We went to Tiger Tiger for dinner with a few work colleagues. It was very nice and the food was good. The cocktails were really nice and the staff was friendly.

I had ordered a couple of portions of cheesy chips at the pub for lunch , and they were fantastic! The chips were golden and crispy, just how I like them, and the melted cheese on top was delicious. It was the perfect comfort food to share around the table, and everyone enjoyed them. We even tried them with a couple of different dips, which added an extra layer of flavour. Overall, it was a great choice for lunch, and I’d definitely order them again! The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing and they even had a little park for the kids, I found the staff very welcoming!

Food here was amazing and very well priced, I had 1/2 rack of ribs which was loads for a normal appetite. My friend had a steak which he said was the best he had eaten in a long time. Desert was also very good. Pub itself is lovely inside and definitely my new favourite. We will be back!

We lunched here after a walk. Friendly welcome on arrival. We were a large party so we had pre ordered. Food came out promptly, portions were generous and food was tasty. I enjoyed my sausage baguette with chips and salad and everyone else seemed to enjoy their choices. I didn't hear any complaints. Would be happy to return.

A bit dark inside but lovely sitting outside. Good food and drinks selection.
