We've never tried the food so that's why I didn't give it 5 stars. Still it's a proper pub as I remember them. No glitz and pretensions but good honest fun. Full of characters, live music often. A great selection of beers and spirits. Plenty of space if you want to tuck yourself away. Large outside space too. It's not going to be everyone's place to go but if you want a down to earth boozer you can do a lot worse.
Prime location, sub-prime everything else. Very disappointing. Sorry. UPDATE Spoke with the manager, who was not on site yesterday, who was very apologetic and concerned by my review. I explained in detail as to why I gave just one star and he said he’d look to address the issues. I was offered a complimentary meal and he was genuinely upset to hear things weren’t as I’d hoped for and what he’d expect to be delivered. I will return as the venue is in a great location.
I’ve just returned from a meeting of some 20 people, held at the Sussex. It was an excellent experience, the accommodation was well organised, the food was good and served promptly and efficiently by the staff. Lee and his team were great and we all had a fun time!
We live very local to this pub so we thought we’d try it out. The Sunday roast was incredible!!!…and fabulous service. The people in the pub are very friendly. We came again for some pints, wings and chips- yet again the food was delicious! Also love that there is a pool table and had great fun playing. Fantastic pub, food and service overall. Will definitely keep coming back :)
The Sunday roast here is ah-may-zing to say the least 👌🏻 portion is perfect and the ambience is super relaxing on a Sunday brunch time. Staff are the loveliest and friendliest. Will definitely return and recommend to anyone looking for a good time!!
