The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Billingshurst and Shipley Horsham South East

"Railway" pubs never let you down. Great local boozer with punters enjoying a drink

Birthday meal: The location is lovely in the hamlet of Dragons Green. Characteristic vintage pub with a new restaurant in the brilliant barn extension. It was the first time they were using the well decorated barn as a restaurant. The food we ate was the Sunday roasts. It was decent but there wasn’t enough food. They looked short staffed and the two waitresses were extremely busy. Our desserts took an hour to come, and considering they are pre-made and heated in the microwave for 20 seconds, it was far too long. We were served chocolate icecream with our sticky toffee pudding and the apple crumble was dumped on the plate upside down. When you’re paying £7 for dessert and £17 for dinner it’s quite expensive. I wouldn’t rush back, there are better alternatives.

We thought the menu one of the best we had seen for ages – cleary prepared with great care and knowledge of ingredients and sustainability. The service too was good – we had a very good waiter, attentive and knowledgeable. Since everything on the menu, including the daily specials, looked so toothsome we found it rather hard to choose. In the end between the four of us we tried most things and all were very good to excellent. Our first courses were plentiful, the mains a good size and very well prepared, and with sides of imaginatively-prepared vegetables we were very well fed. That did not stop us having a chocolate mousse and crème brûlée for pudding, both of which were outstanding. The building itself is wonderful. This place so strongly deserves to succeed. Given the current difficulties of recruiting good people in the hospitality industry, it’s done well to have a great cohort of keen young and enthusiastic staff. Though it is a long journey for us, we would not hesitate to go back .
