Country Pub recommendation for great food

[Clive Walker]

I know I can rely on you lot.

I’m looking for the best country pub not too far from Brighton (north or east of) that serves great lunch time food.

 

[Shy Talk]

Try The Juggs at Kingston, Trevor Arms at Glynde, Barley Mow on A27 just past Middle Farm, Rose Cottage at Alciston, Cricketers at Berwick just for starters. Then tomorrow you could try the Eight Bells at Bolney and the Castle at Bramber. I've tested them all for you.

Shepherd & Dog - Fulking

Shepherd & Dog - Fulking

Seconded.

Had a very pleasant lunch the other day in the lovely garden at the Friars Oak, just north of Hassocks on the A273. Its a Vintage Inns jobbie, their food is usually pretty decent in my experience.

I'd go along with those and add The Giants Rest at Wilmington

Giants Rest at Wilmington. May be a little too far east for you though.

Jolly Sportsman at East Chiltington is great if you want posh.

The same food chain as The Sergison in Haywards Heath which we used to use a lot but had a meal there recently that was awful so will not be going back. Noticed The Black Lion ex Harvester at Patcham is changing to a Miller Carter Steakhouse like in North Lancing which is quite good for a large chain. It is still owned by M & B Pubs but an improved steakhouse.

Blimey is that right? Used to be rough as old boots when I was a kid.

 

[Spicy]

Might be too far north but I like The Sussex Oak at Warnham.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

The Chequers in Slaugham. Haven't been for a couple of years but usually excellent.

Best pub for food and for the view (a bit pricey) is The Griffin Inn in Fletching.
The Half Moon in Plumpton isn't bad too.

 

[The Brighton Bear]

Shepherd & Dog - Fulking

Went there a few weeks ago and the food was splendid!

Shepherd & Dog - Fulking

They should be arrested for that.

 

[Scampi]

Shepherd and Dog is very good, excellent beer there too. I had a very nice meal at the Roebuck Inn in Laughton, it's run by the same people who have the Snowdrop in Lewes. in fact nowadays it's increasingly rare to find a totally shit village pub meal, they just don't survive without good food.

The George at Burpham near Arundel

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

The Cock Inn just outside Lewes/Ringmer is good.
The Plough at Upper Dicker also excellent
The Old Oak at Arlington is good

I went to The Old Oak Inn at Arlington today for lunch, nice food and very good service.
The Cock Inn, on the A26 Uckfield Road is very good.
The Abergavenny Arms at Rodmell, on the C7 between Lewes and Newhaven is also very good for lunch.
