The Royal Oak has everything one could wish for in an unspoilt country pub, fine location, beautiful old building, enchanting rustic interior, disappointing however when I visited with a friend on a weekday evening and was chilled by the frosty reception I received.
Tim, try to be, at least, a little welcoming to a non-local.

Don't let the fact that this pub is situated right next to a garage, it's well worth a visit. If you want good, inexpensive food on a Sunday evening, this is the place to come to, be wise and book a table though. Expect staff to be helpful and friendly.

I agree entirely with the above, this unspoilt pub is a real find with well kept beer, however if visiting on a weekday evening a warm welcome from the landlord or the locals is not guaranteed, my friend and I quickly retreated into the garden to get warm again! No doubt regular visits would secure a nod or a half-smile.

The Kings Head, Burgess Hill
Although it's a little rough and ready I am very fond of the Kings Head, and it's late license means you don't have to rush away, especially if the band is good.
With observant and courteous bar staff and a pleasant atmosphere, it's a pub that's worth visiting in Burgess Hill, as long a you don't mind a bit of well intentioned loudness on a Friday or Saturday night.
