The Snowdrop, Lindfield

Still my favourite, and one of the few remaining "real" pubs in the area. Real ale, real food, and whatever next, real people!! The new licensees seem to be doing a good job as the pub appears busier than it has for a long time. Some of the adverse comments on this site seem a little too contrived to be real to me - a jealous competitor perhaps?? From what I have seen the new landlady is more than pleasant and eager to please - but hey, what the hell if she isn't sometimes? If people want false smiles and "have a nice day" service there are more than enough places to choose from! Just leave this and other pubs with genuine character (and characters!) alone, and let me and my (also slightly less than perfect!) friends enjoy it without you.

The Robin Hood, Rowlands Castle

This place is fantastic. Really friendly (and attractive staff), superb food and the best beers around (Badger, Tanglefoot etc) Newly refurbished - I went back after some time away from the area and the transformation is unbelievable. Full credit to the owners/operators for a very tasteful makeover and for making it somewhere you can feel comfortable eating or JUST HAVING A DRINK! (Seemed more like a restaurant before.)

The Barley Mow, Tandridge

Much improved pub with really good food and terrific beer. Seems to be gradually building a reputation. Deserves praise just for serving food all day which is unheard of at most pubs in this neck of the woods.
