Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Lindfield

This is a treasure and exudes good taste. An instantly warm welcome from interested, intelligent and engaging staff. Good to meet Andrew who’s running it with grace and professionalism, honed from years of experience in Michelin starred places. The conservatory dining area is an elegant, nicely illuminated, well laid out and acoustically friendly area, ideal for conversation and thank goodness, with no mindless music, just the gentle hubbub of gastronomic appreciation. We had lunch with our octogenarian relative. I chose the vegan, butternut squash terrine….an exquisitely delicious triumph, the best I’ve ever eaten and a work of art! My husband’s burger, sumptuous beef, excellently seasoned, in a delightful brioche bun with beautiful chips. My mother in law chose gammon, perfectly tender and a ‘just right’ portion. Afterwards, very good coffee as our digestive. Later, we walked through to the older part of the pub and found a wonderful fireplace and cosy, seating areas that we’ll look forward to trying next time. This really is the nicest pub/restaurant and a discerning gourmet’s choice. We loved it and will be back.

Great food, friendly and professional service, and a lovely, relaxed feel. We sat outside in the spring sunshine, soaking up the peace and quiet of the Common. Both diners had the burgers which were substantial and delicious, especially with the chunky hand-carved chips. For pudding, we had the creme brule and the apple and rhubarb crumble with vanilla custard - both were presented beautifully and in exactly the right proportions - not too big nor too small. We were both driving, so unable to take advantage of the tempting wines.

Our Sunday roast was absolutely delicious. Staff are plenty and attentive.

Visited on a busy Saturday lunchtime. We were well looked after, nice beer and nice lunch in a dog friendly pub.

Clean comfortable and lovely staff. Excellent venue. Pancakes are amazing .
