The best restaurants serving British food in Lewes Castle Lewes South East

The owner is an engaging, friendly character who made the entire experience of attending court a more relaxed one. Please visit and enjoy a lovely coffee

The food was delicious and healthy. I had the salad option and it was packed with variety, colour and great taste. My son had soup and fresh bread and a sausage roll. We plan to return because the food was great at a really affordable price.

The staff were welcoming and polite.The menu was for all type of people also the kids menu was good, very reasonable prices and also dog friendly

Outstanding Sunday roast and service thank you very much and see you soon.

Lovely old pub , good range of table sizes. Menu is original and there is a specials board. All food was tasty with generous portions. Service was friendly but had a little too long wait for the food. Be aware dogs are allowed in the pub so you could have a dog next to you! The hake dish was excellent. Enjoyed our visit.

Really grim. I went with 2 other female friends in their 30s. We were in the disco area and the landlord (late 60s, male) kicked me after I touched one of his blow up Christmas display penguins. We weren’t being drunk or rowdy. Other reviews have said that the landlord and landlady have threatened to kick other patrons for random things like talking too loudly. I reported the incident to the police who said what he had done was an assault and I could take him to court. I opted not to go to court instead agreed to receive a written apology from the landlord, but have yet to receive one. Don’t go here - there are WAY better pubs in Lewes. Try The Lewes Arms, The Swan, The King’s Head, The Rights of Man, The White Hart, The Gardener’s Arms, The Brewer’s Arms, The Pelham Arms, The Black Horse, The Royal Oak, The Lansdown Arms, The Snowdrop, The Abyss Microbrewery, John Harvey Tavern. They’re all lovely pubs where you’re much less likely to be assaulted by the landlord.

Left without having dinner due to feeling hotel manager was unprofessional and unwelcoming. This is the second review I’ve ever written in my life! (The only other when a pie man shouted at my young daughter for curiously touching a pie). The hospitality business is 50% about the staff imo and I have given 3stars because the revamp is good and the ambiance nice and cosy and tasteful. The young bar staff were pleasant and the receptionist was charming and helpful. However, this has been the second time I have found the hotel manager to be short, unfriendly and downright rude. My partner then arrived and the first thing he said to me was the bar manager is really rude! Sort it out! You’re losing customers. How hard is it to be welcoming and polite and helpful? We went to a pub down the road the food was questionable but half the price and the customer service was friendly.
