About us

Since 2009 The Snowdrop Inn has been run by Dominic McCartan & Tony Leonard, who also run the Roebuck Inn in the nearby village of Laughton. The Snowdrop has a somewhat checkered history, having achieved legendary status in the 1990s under the stewardship of Sue and Tim May when Herbie Flowers, Arthur Brown and Lene Lovich all performed here and John Peel numbered it among his favourite pubs.

The Snowdrop Inn is family-friendly, welcomes dogs and we have two pub gardens to enjoy when weather allows. We have a full programme of events including live music most Saturday and Jazz every Monday. Every year, we hold a beer festival curated by Burning Sky head brewer, Mark Tranter, as part of Lewes OctoberFeast’s annual celebrations. We are proud to be the headquarters of South Street Bonfire Society and every August we stage South Street Sports Day and Fun Dog Show, followed in the evening by Alternative Miss Snowdrop, a tradition we have revived from the 90s.

Wonderful pub, our favorite as we did the South Downs Way. Very welcoming, with a homemade menu and three resident dogs.

Lovely pub tucked away in Lewes. I really loved the decor. The staff were hospitable and the food was tasty and homely. Would definitely visit again.

This pub has a great atmosphere, the decor is eclectic and the laid back but professional service provided by the friendly team made this a lace I am keen to visit again. We had a good selection of dishes, the menu was quite extensive and most of us found several things that we wanted to order. The pub had two separate gardens and plenty of seating in the bar downstairs, although they were fairly busy it felt spacious and unrushed. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back next time we are in Lewes, Thanks!

Great pub with a good selection of locally brewed ales on keg and hand pump. Lovely food, good atmosphere, great beer garden and seating inside as well. I ate here with a friend and had the beef chilli, it was delicious. My friend had the smoked salmon and said her horseradish sauce was excellent. Friendly staff, a nice relaxing pub to enjoy good food and drink. Definitely worth making the trip to come back again.
