The best restaurants serving British food in Chantry Horsham South East

Lovely little tearoom with delicious scones and English tea. Gluten free options available. Now getting to be regulars.

Setting is great and has lovely decor. With friendly and attentive staff. Food was good, would go again but quite pricey.

We've been coming to this lovely old gastropub from time to time over the years and we have generally enjoyed our visits. Our last venture here was to celebrate the birthday of my mother. We were 10 persons, having booked in advance and we were shown to a long table in the corner of the main room. It was cozy but it didn't lead to our being able to talk easily during the meal to everybody. Our waitress, a Polish lady was excellent. Very friendly, helpful and prepared to engage in some light hearted banter. Some of us had starters, things like whitebait and prawn cocktail which were OK. For my main course I had the chicken pie with extra gravy. Delicious. The rest of the party seemed to enjoy their food although we wondered whether there had been a change in chef since we had last been here. Somehow, the food was slightly less impressive compared to our previous visits but we couldn't really put our finger on the difference. Mum finished with an ice cream and a candle and the waitress and owner(?) came over and sang Happy Birthday with us which was nice. All in all we enjoyed our visit in this old, historic coaching inn.

14/2/25... I was enroute home from an appointment in Shoreham & felt sure that I would have to call in for a quick ☕ &🍰 stop😊👍.. Warmly greeted by Frankie & shortly after I was sat, a nice ☕ & 🍰 arrived 😋😋.. As I've mentioned on previous reviews, Frankie & her team always do their best to provide a consistent level of service..😊👍.. See you soon...👍

¡No es la primera vez que he estado ni será la última! El personal es muy amable y atento. Como siempre, la comida estaba deliciosa, especialmente el bistec y el pudín de riñón, era uno de los mejores que he comido y estaba allí con el que mi abuela solía hacerme cuando era niño en la década de 1950. No puedo esperar a volver para una segunda ayuda.

I live in Japan now, so when I’m in England I love to visit a proper country pub, and The Sportsman Inn delivered in spades. The view over the downs was beautiful, the pub itself felt cozy and genuine, and the staff were warm and friendly. I had an absolutely terrific time with a good days walk followed up by an amazing meal and then a lovely room to stay the night. I was moved to hear that this pub is fighting for its survival and is community run. It’s nice to know that the beer I drank was supporting a good cause!

Wonderful place for breakfast, lunch or a nice hot drink & a cake/scone. 3 areas to sit and eat, lovely and comfortable with a good choice of jacket potatoes, sandwiches, toasties and more. Fresh cakes adorn the kitchen area and have a multitude of drinks to choose from. Find a table, then go to the counter with your table number and choices, the service is quick and food is devine. Highly recommend and a lovey asset though the village.

Probably one of the best pubs I’ve visited! The staff are super friendly, Natalie & Scott (Head chef) were so accommodating with the menu as my hubby is Celiac. The GF fish & chips were divine, my veg lasagne was amazing! Great music, great vibe & we asked if we could ‘rock up’ in their car park with our campervan & it was a definite ‘Yes!’ I would recommend this pub 100%. Noticed a great play park for kids & patio area outside. You won’t be disappointed 👍

Never disappointed when we come away. When the food arrives there are no surprises. Nice comfort food 🙂 The Manager replaced one dish that wasn't quite hot (possibly because they were so busy). And they did replace it, rather than just stick it in the microwave.

The three course meal we had with matching wines delivered good quality cooking and the service was friendly and efficient.

What a lovely pub. A very warm welcome, great food and wine. The building itself is fabulous and the garden is perfect for a sunny day or evening. Will definitely return.

The food ok but too much, no small portions available at week-ends. Would be nice if the staff were friendly, a smile or how was your meal goes a long way to generate a good business.

Horrible slimy strawberries and hard red blackberry on pancakes wrong coffee latte not cappuccino, not a good experience
