The best restaurants serving British food in South East

This used to be a decent place for an inexpensive, filling lunch. Not anymore. The only "meals" are toasties in bags or two choices of food in plastic tubs which the customer has to carry up to the till to be microwaved. They are doing this "because of covid" which is a pathetic excuse for their poor offering. I won't bother again, whoever took this decision is patently a moron.

Had 2 pie and chips, 1 large chips, got home and the chips where warm and dry, pies where like you got them out the fridge, Cold. Waste of £18.10

5/5 , Amazingly friendly staff, lovely fish and chips and altogether an amazing experience and I recommend it for any fish and chips lovers.

Was disgusted with the food served, ordered a toastie chips toastie was a soggy mess no filling hardly toasted chips hard. Don’t recommend for a lunch

Stopped by when looking for lunch spot during hike nearby - nice weather so were out in the garden. Lovely and friendly service and good food too, recommended!

I don’t know how this place continues to hold a licence for trading, something I will be looking into. I would not waste your hard earned cash on this place, because you get nothing at all except awful greasy food and extortionate prices. After politely complaining about the food and their attitude I was refused my request for half of my money back as , I had eaten the egg from the sandwich and tasted the greasy chips ‘ which were disgusting ! I thought requesting half my money back was reasonable, but I received a mouthful of laughter and abuse from all three staff. I also noted that the premises were far from clean, as a previous reviewers have stated, there was no hand sanitiser available, a filthy dirty fridge that customers have to help themselves from and rude staff. I’m not one for telling others not to take their custom there as it’s their own choice, but please be warned and don’t waste your money. I will be contacting the local council to see what they have to say about Sam’s Bar holding a licence.

I come here regularly with my sister who is learning disabled and loves visiting the memorial site and having snacks here. It is a basic menu but in its defence, the staff are volunteers who give up their time to keep this place running. Lovely view if sitting outside but even inside it has a panoramic view.

Popped in here on a Sunday morning for a bit of breakfast whilst working in the area. The sausage rolls were warm and tasted good, the fresh donuts were nice too

Place has gone seriously down hill and tonight I downloaded their app in the hope of getting a hot meal delivered! Not the case, took over an hour and a half to deliver cold food. No apology and disgustingly rude driver. NEVER EVER AGAIN!!

We went to the greyhound last night to celebrate my husband’s birthday , we had a fantastic evening all of the staff were amazing so friendly and very attentive! Special mention to our waitress Laura who was awesome! What a lovely young lady ! The food was sublime! I had the whole sea bass omg out of this world ! I cannot recommend this place enough , such a stunning restaurant in a beautiful location! We were just planning our return trip when I heard they were closing down in 3 weeks time , so disappointed and sad for the owners and all the staff what a shame what a sad loss 😞

I highly appreciate the customer service and the food. The staff is so generous..I was exhausted and had to go on a job interview next day.. they were very nice and polite I felt fresh instantly.They made my day. I have a real homely feeling of this place.I wish them all the best.

Best traditional English breakfasts ever.

Great Guinness and friendly staff

The staff were rude and had bad attitudes. No customer service!!

Came for a dog walk , super pleased to find a dog friendly pub on top of Portsdown hill ( it’s very cold today) super views, a great spot to warm up, didn’t eat but staff very welcoming and I will definitely use this pub again. Nice selection of dog treats as well!
