They have a good selection of real ales and always have a few good guest ones on tap as well as plenty of lagers to choose from. I had a wonderful Venison steak in redcurrant and red wine sauce last time I was in there and it was absolutely amazing. Not exactly cheap but not too over the top in price. The Sunday lunch is meant to be pretty good here so we're drfinitely going to try that one day. They also rent rooms here, prices differ depending what time of the year but the rooms looked really nice.

This beautiful old pub has been made more contemporary with an eclectic mix of furniture, and an ever-changing gastro pub menu. The selection of drinks on offer is extensive and the manager is always eager to recommend a new beverage to you, or to discuss the provenance of the food with you. Excellent service and a great atmosphere add to the experience, and all in all this pub is highly recommended for a drink, lunch or dinner. They also have some lovely rooms upstairs should you wish to escape, or just in case you have one or two too many of the recommended drinks maybe!

Plenty of bar games to keep you amused like skittles and darts or you could just sit quietly in the corner reading your paper like me.

A good selection of real ale, sets off the old beams and friendly land lady. Moving with pint in had to the large garden overlooking the south downs way (see photos) we soon had steaming masses of food arriving. My lamb with apricots and apples was sumptuous. The liver and bacon my sister had was adequate, but the fish pie was a real winner, salmon, prawns, white fish in a creamy mash. Mmmmm. By the piles of benches stacked against a barn it looks like it gets very busy in the summertime - and according to some locals it "isn't as good as it was before it was discovered" but all in all a great lunch and think it is a great find. Heartily recommend, hope some other Qypers can discover it too.

Friends directed me to this gastropub in the small village of West Ashling off the A27 near…read moreChichester, and I was delighted to find two sunny rooms filled with original cooking of high quality, and excellent service. Hot and runny venison scotch egg with pickled fennel was crisply delicious as was the chargrilled white asparagus, crunchy poached egg and Alba truffle mayonnaise, while haloumi also came crisply battered with a herb-filled dipping butter. A decent-sized plate of mussels was made more interesting with the addition of rice and chorizo in the broth, but the slow-cooked, smokey beef brisket was the star of the show, closely followed by some of the best triple-cooked chips ever eaten. A delicious rhubarb fool and some gorgeous ice creams including sea-salt caramel and liquorice completed a superb meal. The menu pictured will show you the prices. We will return!

Running an award winning inn in Vermont USA we have high standards and Emma who is front of house knows her onions, and Dotty her wonderful hairy companion was the cherry on top of the cake! The 2 rooms offered as accommodation are simple but very comfortable, but the bed we found to be very springy...which was not uncomfortable but unusual for us, as we are used to a firmer mattress. However we slept well, and also heard little noise from the busy pub downstairs. The bathroom had a great soaking tub as we were upgraded to the larger of the two rooms. To sum up: The breakfast was freshly cooked with a cracking local sausage and bacon on offer, but also on offer was a simple selection of fresh fruits, yoghurt and homemade bread, so we started each day well. I had dinner there one night with the bride and some family and we all enjoyed the dinner. In particular the homemade scotch egg and sardine appertisers were fantastic. Every dish was prepared with passion and William is a chef with creative and consistent culinary style at the top of his daily routine. The pub also serves delicious pints of ale...which I had to partake of! As we were there over a weekend the wood fired pizza oven was burning and my they make a bloody great pizza! So if you want a great meal, and want to consume a few drinks, book a room and stay over....you will not be disappointed!
