The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Pagham and Rose Green Arun South East

Had afternoon tea here recently. Couldn't fault the selection, was delicious and very filling . Staff very friendly . Would certainly not hesitate to go back.

I took my wife and elderly Mother for lunch on the 22nd of December, having been told by a friend that this was a quality pub with good food and service. Before I say anything more, I’m not one to complain unnecessarily, and consider myself a fair and balanced person, with a discerning palate. Well, we weren’t sure what to expect, and were pleasantly happy to see a carvery, all ready to be served. My wife and I chose the roasts and my Mum the child’s menu of fish fingers. I requested a sweet sherry for my Mum, only to be told that they had run out, so I then asked for a ginger wine, only to be told they didn’t have any, only ginger beer. We settled for a sweet wine. I asked if they did cocktails and the waitress asked anther waitress only to be told “no”. There was no drinks menu, and the main menu was extremely sparse, mainly the carvery and one or two other meals. This takes me on to the carvery. The man serving the food was extremely friendly and jovial, which I have to say was their only saving grace. I had a selection of all the meats, served in abundance along with a good variety of veg on a massive plate. It’s looked amazing. However, how disappointed we were. All the meats except the turkey were undercooked, tough and chewy. The worst carvery I’ve ever had. And the roast potatoes had no crunch to them (my idea of a good test of a quality roast). My Mum’s food arrived, an enormous piece of fish and chips on a very crowded small rectangular plate. The waitress apologised that she had ordered the wrong meal, but said they would only charge for the child’s meal. My poor Mum was immediately put off the large plate of food, and hence only picked at it. Normally, she would have eaten fish and chips, and had it been the child’s version of fish fingers, I think she would have eaten a lot more. Other than that the music was too loud right behind us, making it difficult to talk, and in my view unnecessary. There were loads of groups in the restaurant, so there was a vibe made worse by the music, which apart from being too loud, was not always relaxing to hear. I requested it to be turned down which thankfully it was. All in all, it was a very disappointing experience. The waitressing staff appeared inexperienced, and I can only imagine that there was a Christmas crisis in the kitchen. Having just looked at the website, our experience was miles away from what is described. I would like to think this was an unusual situation, and that the general quality had taken a massive drop due to unforeseen circumstances (which I know happens at this time of year). I’m extremely reluctant to give the Inglenook another chance as we were so disappointed.

Arrived tonight wanting a nice pub meal only to be told the kitchen was closed. Despite their website stating food was served from 6pm. How hard is it to put something on your own website to let potential customers know? Wasted journey.

What a wonderful welcome we got from Nancy when we went for lunch at the Lamb. She was so friendly and welcoming. She had lit both the fires and it was cozy, absolutely beautiful lunch cooked by the new chef. A wonderful experience - we will be back.
