Excellent food and service - highly recommend the braised steak, the steak melted in your mouth, it was so tender and the stout gravy was delicious - really lovely

Been here twice now, beautiful pub, lovely decor and friendly staff. The food has been excellent on both occasions. There is a snack/sandwich menu and main menu plus lots of specials, so lots of choice, also food is served all day. Will be going again and would definatly recommend this pub.

The Swan Mountain Range Restaurant & Bar, Forest Row
Went here today and had a lovely meal, service was good and food was lovely, only downfall was they offer "hot rocks" (where they bring the meat on a granite stone for you to cook) personally I do not want to go out to eat to cook my own food). The hot rocks also limited my selection as most meat dishes were offered only this way. They also only have a small selection of sandwiches.

Love the riverside location, views and its within walking distance of the beach and cliffs. However, the food lets this pub down, very small sandwich selection with even smaller fillings!! The menu says freshly made sandwiches yet when I asked for the chicken and bacon sandwich without the mayo I could not have it as the filling was already made up!!! Had the steak ciabatta instead (if you could call it that) for the tiny amount of steak the ciabatta actually had in it. I filled the ciabatta with chips which were nice and you get plenty of them (a whole bowl full), still I suppose they are cheaper than steak!!!

The Plough and Furrow Inn, Smallfield
The pub itself is a bit dated but the food more than makes up for this, been here twice recently and both times have had lovely meals- really good. The pub also has a nice patio area.

Stunning location, but the food and service were a huge disappointment. I could not get a smile out of the lady who served me, she looked really miserable, I asked to change my club sandwich to a baguette, which they would not do, despite it saying on the menu you have a choice of bread or baguette, I asked for another sandwich without mayo and it came with it although they did change it without any problems, the portions were measly (not much fillings in the sandwiches). I would not go back there, next time I'm in the area I will try the ship which has the same stunning location and also has a patio area overlooking the harbour where the Royal Oak did not (you could get a table inside overlooking it, but as its right on the seafront there are only benches at the front of the pub). 10/10 for location 4/10 food and service.

Went here recently, love the location, esp on a sunny day as it was when we went, sat outside overlooking the river. Service was good and the food was lovely.

The White Bear is a lovely "country pub" with a nice garden, the pub is very popular and booking is recommended at the weekend. I have been lots of times and never been dissapointed with the food or service. Generous portions and an extensive menu, they also have variety of sandwiches. Only downside is that in the summer sandwiches have to be ordered outside in the garden where they have a separate kitchen. Think this is obviously weather dependant though.

Love the location of this pub and the beautiful mill. I'm rather surprised by some of the previous reviews for this pub. My husband and I visited this pub recently on a lovely day, we were greeted at the bar by friendly bar staff. We ate at the pub and the food was lovely and we did not have to wait very long for it either. We would go back.

The Fighting Cocks, Godshill
Went here yesterday, the pub is in a lovely location but the food is disappointing. I ordered the "home cooked" turkey baguette, there was not much turkey and it was not home cooked!! My dad had the steak burger which was tough and over cooked, yet the chips were under cooked. I Would not go back.
