The Frankland Arms, Washington

Travelled 200 miles to enjoy an evening with family who live in West Sussex,the evening was a disaster,shortly after finishing our meal we were asked to leave because we had young children with us,well behaved I might add,the food was OK but nothing to sing about which goes for the beer also.After accepting that this was the way it was going to be we gathered in the garden to continue our conversations only to be told some 5 minutes later that the eviction order INCLUDED the garden!West Sussex hospitality,give me Shropshire anyday.This kind of management will not help our rural pubs,if you want old codgers who sit at the bar all night with half of bitter,go for it,if you want people that spend good money,change your style.
