The Maypole Inn, High Hurstwood

Excellent pub for a lunchtime stop on a long walk or an evening visit for a meal (locals recommended the fish to us which was excellent but one of us had a curry, which wasn't!). Not the world's best beer garden but then again the road's so quiet that you're as likely to see a horse as a car. The landlord can look a bit a grumpy sometimes but that's just his face; seems OK if you get to talk to him.

Notice outside suggests he's extending his opening hours (from 5pm and all days Friday and Saturday) which is a good thing as we went past once with friends on a long walk only to find he wasn't opening for another half hour.
