Red Lyon, Slinfold

Superb food, one of best sunday roasts I've sampled. Nice garden with heaters. Bit pricey but worth it. Friendly service too.

The Sussex Oak, Warnham

Most accomodating landlord I have come across. Very welcoming to our walking group. Although we take a chance on food availablity and usually park away from the pub to avoid clogging up the car park for regulars he was most insistent on finding us a table together and that we used the car park. Top marks for food and atmosphere too.

The Blue Ship, The Haven

We used to use this pub regularly as a base for Sunday country walks. Last time we arrived we parked our cars away from the car park down the lane as usual but one of our walkers chained his bike up in the pub garden. The landlady came flying out and was quite abusive to him although he explained we would all be back to the pub after our walk for lunch and/or drinks in the garden if too full inside. We completed our walk but all 15 of us drove off to the Red Lion at Slinfold which was extremely welcoming with fantastic food. We have struck the Blue Ship off our list for future until we hear the management have changed. I can't understand management like this. Whilst they may not need the trade on Sunday lunchtimes, many of us used to use this pub on quiet weekdays too.
