    The food is excellent. Taste and presentation was perfect, and the staff were really welcoming helping to make the whole visit a fantastic experience. Would thoroughly recommend - we have already booked to take friends to their fish tasting menu night in April!

    Really delicious Sunday lunch. The set menu features roasts and also dishes from their a la carte menu making it very good value indeed. Excellent service in a very old oak beamed building of great charm. Our only issue was that it is not easy to find - satnav told us "you have arrived at your destination" but we couldn't see it. For your information it is a couple of hundred yards from the Esso station travelling west on the A27, stay on the small slip road...Even if you do have trouble finding it, believe me, it is worth the effort! We shall return.

    Excellent food and excellent service as always. Only slightly negative thing I would say is we could have had more vegetables, but what we had was really good.

    We enjoyed another excellent lunch at Cassons on Sunday. As ever the dessert was outstanding and delicious. They were also very generous in giving me a ‘small portion’ which I asked for, but also charged half price for my meal. Thank you.
