The Farmhouse Inn, Southwick

Visited on Sat 4th Dec for meal with friends. Friends starter of avocado was black. She advised the waitress who took away and bought soup instead. Soup so cool she was able to put her finger in and leave it there. Main course came. Steak requested as medium 8oz rump. Shrivelled dry burnt steak presented. Chips very overdone. Raised with waitress who took steak away to re-do returning to table with it and LOUDLY announcing in front of all patrons that 'chef considers it medium' extremely rude and embarrassing. New steak then presented which was perfect. Senior waitress then proceeded to discuss with other staff openly in front of us. We all had a sweet. My friend was still eating hers when senior waitress cleared table around her (this at 9pm). Meal was overpriced. Staff were sullen, rude and patronising. Would not recommend at any cost. Very poor.
