    This place is great!!! The location is cute, and the building is unique with character. You can…read moretell that people really enjoy coming here. They have typical British pub food. I ordered cheesy bread and the shepherds pie. Oh my goodness... both were incredible!!! It was a weirdly cold day when I went, so the food was not only delicious but also very comforting. Coming here is a good time.

    A great, slightly quirky, traditional pub in a great Sussex village…read more You won't find Chiddingly by accident - it's off a narrow lane off the A22, between Lewes and Eastbourne. The village itself dates back to Domesday and has a fine mediaeval church (worth a visit while there). In fact, the village has 55 entries in the listed building guide, so there's more than enough history to occupy the most hardened tourist before retiring to the pub for refreshment. The pub building dates back to 1774 (and possibly earlier) and is a Grade II listed building; the frontage of blue and red bricks looks suitably traditional, and through the front door there is a main bar area to the left and a wonderful snug room (with a huge fireplace) to the right. The interior is all wooden beams and stone floors, with a bar serving a good selection of real ales and generous portions of traditional pub grub, all with friendly bar staff. (NB The food is popular, so be prepared to wait at busy periods). Towards the rear of the pub, the walls are festooned with old pictures and photographs, and a motorcycling theme predominates: it is a well-known meeting place for bikers, and there's a club board by the back door giving details of events, runs, etc. Outside is a large garden, with lots of seating. The rear of the pub is decorated with old enamel advertising signs, covering every subject imaginable. Also at the back is the large, surfaced car park - perfect for rows of shiny (or, in my case, not so shiny) motorbikes. If all that wasn't enough, the pub also host a fortnightly folk and blues club (http://www.6bellsfolk.co.uk ) as well as its biker meets. Oh, and on my last visit, my mate and I (on our bikes) opted for 2 pints of soda and lime to quench our thirst, with a couple of packets of crisps. It came to £1.80. How great it is, not to feel ripped off with outrageously priced soft drinks! (Next time, though, I'll get someone else to drive so I can sample the real ales...)

    Been here twice recently…read more.. First, to meet friends who live locally. The bar food is indeed very good; its a friendly place; nice big garden area - we sat outside; reasonably sized car park (though we did watch a slow motion - literally - car crash as a mini that someone had forgotten to put on the handbrake for rolled backwards into some concrete feature thing)...a bit concerned as I was parked next to it Anyway, very enjoyable and definitely to be recommended We returned a week or so later to meet other friends, it being more or less half way between us....and on our way to the Tunnel Aha...watch out for the beams, missed last time as we sat out...they are exceptionally low!!! the welcome and the food were again both very good Will return, especially as it is on our route, but maybe preferably in the summer...I think outside is a safer bet

    There are not many pubs I would go out of my way to visit but The Royal Oak at Wineham is most…read morecertainly one of them. We had the great good fortune to be camping at Blacklands farm, which is only 20 minutes walk away, so this became our "local" on the extended bank holiday royal wedding weekend. It's a real gem of a place with a picture postcard look; timber framed with white walls and tiny windows this is the classic old school English country pub come to life. Inside it has kept its traditional character with low ceilings and rustic furnishings. There is a front room which houses the bar (no visible hand pumps threw me at first before I realised it all comes straight from the cask) and another small room with three tables out back which is great for a romantic dinner of an evening. There is also another room in an original "annexe" to the main building which is opened for diners during busy periods; this might be a good choice if you are with children. Alternatively on fine days, such as those we have had this past weekend, there is no better place to be than the lovely garden out front. We were camping with our old pals the Yeoman's, who had their delightful two year old Aoife in tow. She had a ball exploring the garden and getting up close and friendly with the various breeds of dogs, and their owners, who were visiting on a Saturday lunchtime. I do believe a very good time was had by all. The beer, as I said, is poured straight from the cask and is well kept and in tip top condition. Nothing much out of the ordinary in the choice of Dark Star Hophead and Harveys Best and Knots of May which were being served on our visits but hey, they were drinking very well indeed in the spring time sun and we kept coming back for more. We ate here on the Friday evening and had a great meal. I had the Catalonian inspired fish stew with chorizo and fennel which came with crusty bread and a garlic rouille; a big bowlful and very tasty indeed. B had the confit duck on a bed of champ with a garnish of rocket. Despite being under seasoned, she scoffed the lot in quick time and declared herself more than satisfied with her supper. After a morning spent walking we returned here on the Saturday to try out the Ploughman Boards. After a few miles with a two year old on the back I was pretty hungry so we decided to go for a Board each and that was a pretty good call to make because 45 minutes later there was not a crumb to be had. All of the Boards were extremely fine and came with a bit hunk of crusty bread, more butter than could possibly be good for you, some rustic coleslaw, home-made chutney, picked onion, salad and a choice of rare roast beef, cheese, ham, scotch egg or smoked salmon. If you looked hard as you entered the pub there was a note pinned up indicating where they were sourcing most of this local produce which was a nice touch. The punters are a mix of campers from down the road at Blacklands, and the very discrete mobile home site next door, who sit alongside a motley crew of locals. Service comes with a smile and the owner Michael is a lovely fella who offered up great advice and some wonderful hospitality. This is a special pub in a fantastic location and I am already dreaming of a return visit.
