The best restaurants serving British food in Mid Sussex South East

What a find! A hidden gem in the RH10 area, Pease Pottage. Had the 6 course Spring menu along with the wine pairing and it was exquisite. Service and food are exceptional, with a full explanation of each course along with the wine pairing. Very romantic and relaxed setting, with the option of a stay over. We will make this a seasonal visit, along with the odd Sunday lunch. You could also privately hire the venue for a special occasion. All in all, this was a fantastic experience and one I will share with friends and family. Thank you to our hosts, Paul and Rich, who clearly care about their customers, the food and the setting. 10/10 from us!!

Latte great coffee taste with well balanced flavour. Good service and ambience. Good strong espresso. They must be using premium beans. Well done - we will be back!

Amazing food, so quick with the service, staff are friendly, never an issue with ordering, portions are a great size and always left full up.

Yet another delicious meal - we were excited to see Indian spices on the pheasant and it was executed beautifully. Delicate but perfectly balanced. One of our favourite tasting menus here so far. One thing that really stood out on this visit (we haven't been for quite a few months) was the service. It was impeccable! It elevated our normal lovely meal to an outstanding evening, big thanks to Pluto - you made our evening perfect. Your passion and professionalism shone through. We look forward to returning again soon.

Smashing fish & chips. Friendly staff. Quick service.

Have been going here for years without issue. Today I took my visiting parents here for a cooked breakfast. We sat down and had to wait for 15 min before one of the 2 staff came to take our order (she was eating her breakfast at a table when we arrived!) Very rude and blunt when taking our order. Waited a long time for it to arrive and when it did my order was wrong. I informed the staff and she appologied. When the missing item did arrive some 5 min later, it wasn’t cooked! I tried to return it to the staff but both were outside the kitchen back door smoking, so I left it on the side. When they came back in they ignored that it was there and just continued to talk. Never once did they ask “everything ok?” Or “how was your food?” Won’t be coming here again.

First time here. The most fantastic, tasty and freshly cooked fish and chips. Lovely couple run the business, friendly and excellent customer service. Highly recommend!

I have been a member for a couple of years. Previously Wickwoods was amazing. Since taking over, David Lloyds have undertaken a complete renovation. Since completion of phase 1 (which took over 3 months of patience) the spa pool, indoor pool, showers, and sauna are all freezing. No compensation has been offered to loyal members for the huge disruption and failed attempt at delivering what they promised including basic necessities of a gym like a warm shower. And to top it off prices are being increased. Perhaps Wickwoods will be great again in time but right now I’d avoid.

Very friendly staff & the food is always nice my personal favourite is the breakfast burrito wrap which was so nice. Highly recommend.

Friendly service; good value drinks and food. Child and dog friendly.

My wife came here with some girlfriends and raved about it so much we came back with some friends for Saturday lunch. Lovely ambience, very attentive staff, the owner is a warm and friendly presence. Food was amazing, in particular my spicy prawn cocktail starter. My main was a little disappointing but I think I simply chose badly - steak frites, not a great cut. Will choose differently next time. Well worth a visit.

Superb on Saturday evening 24th November with lovely ladies looking after your order which is cooked whilst you wait.

The delivery person came out in the rain and it was bad rain

Hi Chris Just wanted to say a huge Thank You to you and the team, including Tobias! for another great Christmas night at the Oak Barn last Friday night. Food delicious and hot, entertainment spot on, service impeccable…Bloody well done!

I went for an evening meal with a friend we both had a starter and a main course, I had the tom yum seafood soup which was very nice, my friend had spring rolls which he said were also very nice. For the main course I had the monkfish curry which I thought was very bland and really only tasted of coconut, my friend had duck and said it was very tough. We did tell the waiter our thoughts which he said would pass on to the chef. We paid the bill and left a tip which reflected what we thought of the quality of the food. However on returning home I noticed that we had been charged 12 1/2% service charge on top, which I think it totally wrong! It really should be left to the discretion of the customer, if you have had a nice meal and good service then you leave a good tip if not then you might not want to leave a tip at all. I class this as theft! I thought the food was overpriced and certainly not the best thai food I have eaten and with the service charge on top, I certainly won't be returning and would not recommend.
