Great museum that is really a preserved house of historic importance. Obviously run by volunteers who care for this house and have the passion and dedication to back it up! It was inexpensive to get in and definitely worth it. The place veritably reeks of history and each of the rooms tell their own story involved with the life and times of Anne of Cleves, who we learn, might not have been Henry VIII's type, but did survive her marriage and became a friend to the King later on in life! There is a cafe on site but it was shut on the day we visited. However, the helpful staff directed us to a nearby garden cafe where we could enjoy our tea and cakes in the sunshine and reflect on our visit to this most beautiful of 'semi-hidden' historical wonders. Worth a visit anytime.

This house is larger than you think from the front. Personally I thought the rear was more stunning. An incredible building with an interesting history. 22 people lived the house at one point although it was divided into three and had a shop! The cafe has a lovely garden area to sit out. Delicious carrot and orange cake available today. A fabulous tapestry is on display, it had a Japanese/Asian style. It was free to enter today and I believe this to be the case this weekend!

We visited this with the Lewes Castle combo ticket. Not a large site BUT very informative and well done. Recommended to include there is an adjacent cafe as well.

Well presented Tudor house, although I had not appreciated that Anne of Cleves hadn't actually lived in the house. Nonetheless, it was worth seeing, and the cafe was excellent.

A bit of a letdown. House has been cleared and doesn't show what it really would have looked like. The gardens are manicured and don't have any vegetables growing. How this is supposed to represent where 22 people lived when Anne rented the place out, is beyond me.

Lovely building with very informative signage. The history of the house itself, its structural changes, ownership etc was very interesting. The garden is fairly small but had a beautiful grape vine, medlar tree and quince bushes. Relaxing atmosphere. Well worth a visit

You can see about 4 rooms of Anne of Cleves 15th century house (though note she probably never lived here). There are quite a few stairs, and it’s a bit of an odd layout. However, there are interesting items and signs about the house’s history, architectural style, and items from the time period. Tickets: They offer a combined ticket with Lewes Castle, and if you gift aid your ticket it is good for the year. Facilities: They have a small shop, clean toilets, and a cafe (though we did not visit these)

There was more to Lewes Castle than I thought. you buy tickets in the museum and gift shop building , then a member of staff lets you into the castle it's self. There is quite a lot of stairs, so bare this in mind if you have mobility issues. once you've made the climb, there is a lot of information on the castles history. The view from the top is memorable.

I had no idea there was even a castle at Lewes! Free to all today and I believe this weekend. Magnificent views of Lewes today from the top of the castle. The museum has a truly amazing model village where you watch a video about the history of Lewes. Somebody very talented put so much detail into it. Well worth a visit.

The admission includes access to the gatehouse and stairs leading to the tower overlooking Lewes. The views from both are impressive! The onsite museum though small has a short but informative video about the history of Lewes. We booked with a combo ticket for the Anne of Cleves house, too.

My first visit to Lewes, ostensibly to visit the Anne of Cleves House, but there's a joint ticket available to also visit the castle and I'm glad we did. It was fascinating, well presented and the interpretive material was excellent. The views from the tower are well worth the climb, highly recommended.

Beautiful historic castle with amazing views from various levels. Just be careful on the steps, especially when going up or down the spiral staircases inside the towers.

Really enjoyable place to visit. So much history to soak up. My only gripe is that, in my efforts to fully immerse myself in the period, wearing chainmail and full armour made the ascent to the top of the castle painstakingly slow. Why oh why when they built it didn't they have the forethought to put in either an escalator or starlift? Apart from this observation, it really was fantastic. The museum was child friendly so I learnt a lot.

Lovely place. Not much left to the castle but a supporting museum, with lots of info. about the castle and the town of Lewes. You can climb to the top of both mottes. Cracking views of Lewes and the South Downs from the top! Nice gardens, staff, and a good price. Upgrade to an annual pass when you use Gift Aid.

Had a great time, the pool was on the chilly side but you soon got used to it, on a really hot day a cold pool would be just what you need I'm sure Food prices were good and lower than expected

Worked here with the LYT crew setting up a stage in the field adjacent to the pool. Had a chance to dip in the pool and it was just what I needed on a hot summers day! The pool is slightly heated so it didn’t feels too cold. Tea was only 1.50 which is a steal, if you’re looking for a place to cool down then stop by the Pool and you will not be disappointed :)

What a fabulous gem in Lewes. We went on a cloudy day so it was quiet but the staff were amazing and helpful, the facilities clean and tidy and the pool was lovely. Not heated as mentioned before but fine at this time of year if you're not a cold water aficionado.

Lovely outdoor lido. Unheated so only suitable for hardcore swimmers or sunny days. Great facilities except there really should be hot showers. Full of old school charm. Lots of sessions available to suit all types.

A lovely discovery on my recent Brompton bike adventure in the South Downs area. Staff were friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed my chilly swim and chill out after! Thanks.

A big well situated pool. A nice grassy area to sit in. Not too busy. Floats available. Nice staff. A toddler pool. Everything you need, including hot drinks available to warm you up.

Nice Lido with everything you'd expect. Looking a little worn around the edges. Could do with a new changing room facilities. But the pool surround and the grass area was pleasant enough.

Visited today for brunch. Food was delicious. So many delicious looking things to try it was hard to choose. Courtyard at the back looked quaint and appealing too. Service was very efficient, friendly and welcoming. Will return. Highly recommended.

Brilliant bakery in Lewes. Great bread and sourdough looked good too (I run my own bakery in Edinburgh!). Really delicious panini and I had a nice pot of loose leaf tea. Cakes and salads also looked delicious. We bought some organic veg from their farm for dinner. Pretty courtyard at the back where we sat in the sun. Friendly and welcoming staff. Would definitely recommend.

The loveliest cafe in Lewes, amazing coffee and extremely tasty food. Staff are always very friendly and welcoming. Couldn’t reccomend enough, I always stop by here whenever I’m in town!

I ordered a raspberry bakewell. It was amazing. It was light, crumbly, not too sweet. The raspberries just had a hint of tartness to them. I have been on the hunt for an amazing bakewell for a long time. This did not disappoint. The service was also quick and friendly.

Lovely. Spent half of the day there, with new friend’s (birds), amazing cakes and coffee.

The best bakery in Lewes and always worth a visit. Great sourdough bread and baguettes, tasty cakes, salads and really good coffee. Dine in or takeaway you won't be disappointed and the staff are all excellent too.

We have had lovely lunches here, and bought some really tasty bread to take away with us. Staff were happy to share with us the recipe for the salad that we thought was delicious.

The most peaceful park where one can enjoy a coffee and a pastry in a lovely green space. The flowers and the birds are gorgeous in this public garden.

Very enjoyable gardens to wander road. Well used, lots of groups of all ages picnicking. Ice cream from kiosk was very nice. There are toilets as well. Access from the gardens into Sussex Guild, there are some very beautiful items in there, jewellery, pottery, woodwork, cards and textiles etc.

It’s Great wandering round the gardens, a real hidden gem. It was packed full of spring colours today.

Attractive gardens with well maintained flowerbeds, ornate walls and a fast flowing waterway running through the centre during winter. Vibrant floral borders in the spring and summer months. Lovely spot for a short walk or to take a few minutes break from the bustle of town.

This place is seriously a beautiful and peaceful, perfect for morning or evening stroll. There are plenty of beautiful and different kinds of flowers to soothe your eyes and soul. I hardly hear any noise and disturbance, one can do yoga and meditate over here. It's quite close to train station and bus station as well. I have been there many time and always enjoyed my walk to the beautiful Serene enchanting place.

Lovely gardens, sculptures and events. However, the ice cream parlour closed, while still having a queue of customers on an event evening last Saturday, turning us all away, instead of serving the last few in the queue and then closing 😀

There is always something to see at Southover Grange Gardens from the gardens themselve wit colourful displays and the surrounding areas always kept tidy. Plenty of room for children to play and for picnics or food drink and ice cream from the kiosk. On the day I went we watched a wedding play out on the lawn in front.

Always nice to walk through, even more so on a sunny day. Occasionally people come and dress up and sword fight nearby, which adds to the effect. You see the ruins in 5 mins, so not somewhere i'd go out of my way to visit, but a nice short walk if you're in lewes

Stunning spot to wander through, learn some rich history and stop and have a picnic. Free entry with a carpark nearby which has 1 hour free parking. Dogs welcome. The back of the priory opens up onto a playing field for an extended dog walk. Well kept and respected place, very calming and enjoyable

It’s an amazing place to explore. It gives a lot of room for imagining the place. Truly a wonderful history

Walk to lewes priory in 15 mins from the high street. Otherwise carparks every where. Battle of Lewes reenactment was amazing! Great town. Really nice people and excellent coffee!

What a fantastic priory this must have been in it's day. Not so well done Henry 8th!! Still a lovely place to walk round.

I didn't know Lewes even had a Priory until today. In its hayday it was ginormous. There are ruins still available to look at free of charge with information boards. It's a large flat site and well worth a visit.

Was lucky to find a quiet Priory. Quite well maintained despite being so old. A quiet vibe to it.

One of my favourite pubs. Just 5 minutes walk from the centre. Sadly next to the bypass so beer garden not as quiet as in days long gone by. Stunning views of the chalk cliffs. Great food and beer. Now limits opening to Thursday - Sunday. Site of Englands worst avalanche when 8 people died.

A lovely local pub with the cutest of fluffy dogs, the staff were friendly and made a cracking espresso martini! Chips and gravy and Welsh rarebit- 10/10. Would definitely recommend popping in if you're in the area!

Brilliant little pub. Great range of indie beers, incredibly friendly staff and a fun atmosphere. Had dinner plans elsewhere but I almost regretted it as the food looked amazing. Also a really expansive menu. Tons of stuff on there including Louisiana Gumbo!

First time trying this place on this bank holiday weekend. The decor is great and the atmosphere is upbeat and lively, very friendly crowd and in general with the customers. There is outdoor space on both sides of the pub, one is non-smoking, the other is larger but the tables were pretty old and knackered so we moved. The menu is decent, the food alright for a pub. Most mains are set at £16 which is fair but I do feel like the curry was like a premium ready meal, especially the rice that came with the beef madras I ordered. Mrs had spicy Cajun wings which she liked and the chips too were very good apparently, that sounds like a silly thing to mention but many places don't get the simple bits right but this did. The salad that came with the wings was not the usual token, basic salad you get a lot of places, it was much better. There are resident dogs in the pub and they're beautiful 😍 The pub doesn't stock typical branded beers/lagers which I don't mind as I like to try something new, the barman I spoke to was helpful in choosing a drink and it was very nice 🙂

Absolutely beautiful pub! Cute fluffy pub dogs! Good vibe, lots of craft beer on tap.

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.

Went here to watch one of the film that was on during the week (Urchin) and had a wonderful experience. Very smooth process from booking online, arriving and interacting with very friendly staff. Then the actual theatre. Absolutely comfortable 10/10. Very clean environment; comfortable seating; and the sound system was perfect. Literally had a better movie experience here than I did at a much larger operated cinema 2 days prior.

I really like The Depot. I love its "Indie" vibe and character. Outside seating, cafe, fab cinema spaces and relaxed seating. Four stars? It seems to take a lifetime to get a simple cafe latte. The latte is fine, but somehow the staff seem to always have more important things to do. Even when it's not busy. If it were a one-off, I'd let it go, but it's happened a number of times.

Lovely evening outside with live music, drink and food available. Saw a film but actually really disappointed with the film but nevertheless the venue is great. Oh, and comfy cinema seats, footstools in the front row and you can take your drink in with you.

Me and my best friend have come here every week for a year now and we have never have been disappointed. Staff are the best, always kind and helpful, absolute gems. Cake and coffee are immaculate as well as the food, such good quality and service. Amazing study environment outside and inside, we highly recommend the Depot and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Thank you to the staff x

Excellent small cinema. Always clean. Good range of films. Also has great food & drink but this area does get busy in the evenings & I don't believe you can book a table.

What a lovely venue and outside garden. 1st time experience. Love it here.We had a glass of wine as some had coffee. Very relaxing atmosphere with great vibes. Beautiful sunny day. Wish to sit in lovely garden but not windy. They’re offering variety of food, wine, beer & tea, coffee. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Table service as well as help yourself. Toilets were clean. It’s a very good meeting point. A beautiful gallery displaying beautiful artwork as well as a cinema for this lil town. Superb location just in front of Lewes train station. I'd definitely visit the Depot in Lewes again.

This is a great cinema for all. Good food in the restaurant, great cinemas although 3 is very small. Reasonably priced tickets. Lovely outdoor space. I highly recommend a visit.

Great shop for great Sussex ale! Always pick up a couple of crates of beer when I visit. You’re charged a small deposit on the crates and bottles, which you get back when you return them. If you’re returning and/or buying a lot of bottles, always best to park in the brewery car park (accessible via Court Road, Railway Lane, on to the pedestrianised part of Cliffe High Street, over the bridge, and first left after that). Let the shop know you have a lot of returns and where you’re parked and the fantastic staff will help unload/load. Great choice of beers, as well as wines, plus brewery merchandise. Staff are always helpful and friendly…. Highly recommend if you visit Lewes… 👍

Cracking good beer, tasteful decor and the whole range of beers. Plenty of merchandise, some reasonably priced and some a little expensive (£20 for a baseball style hat). Friendly and helpful staff.

Popped in briefly to get some cigars on my brief visit to the town today. Excellent selection of beers, spirits and wine from the world over, not to mention some really nice Harvey's merch and a decent range of cigars. I enjoyed some excellent customer service from Adam. Will make a bee-line back here should I visit Lewes again!

Love the selection of Harvey's ales, bottled and keg. Have been tried in pubs so this time at brewery. Very helpful staff. Should recommend to enjoy beer when ur in Lewes.

Bought a firkin of Harveys Best for our wedding. Great service and value for money. Thank you 🙏

We were in Lewis and found this local brewery shop. Bought a few different bottles of Harvey’s brewery products. So good. Sussex best bitter is the best

Bought a case of Sussex best low alcohol and extremely disappointed. Went completely flat within a minute tastes more like a watered down IPA than beer. Even went and got another glass, washed it out and tried again to make sure… Complete waste of money and nothing like ale.

Charleston is addictive! It holds so many stories alongside works of art some of which are literally part of the furniture. The setting, the house, the garden; it's all a delicious treat. I highly recommend a visit.

No words for how cool the house and gardens are. If you are interested in interiors, gardens, design, art, and/or the Bloomsbury Group, it is so worth a pilgrimage. Paired gorgeously with a visit to Monks House.

What a captivating history awaits you at this wonderful living work of art! I adored walking around this house, learning from the docents who are placed in each room, ready to tell you about any detail that piques your interest. There is a brilliant app that offers insights into each room. Understandably you’re not allowed to play the audio tour aloud, and I didn’t have headphones, so I focused on being present in the space and interacting with the knowledgeable volunteers. Once I made it to the large cafe, I was able to find a quiet corner and listen to the tour while my memory of each room was still fresh. I was transported to the era of the home being alive with artists and writers. It was a safe haven for we would now call queer and poly relationships, “unconventional” marriages, where everyone got to be free to focus on their pleasure and their art. Take the time to walk around the grounds, which is described as “a painter’s garden…exuberant and not intended to be tasteful or restrained.” There is even a little scavenger hunt to do of the various statues you can find hiding among the shrubbery. I hope to come back here to soak up the atmosphere again. For maximum enjoyment, bring your headphones and use your imagination!

Finally returned after more than 30 years. Great to visit once again and more to see with the new galleries and nice cafe.

The new galleries are brilliant. We saw the post-impressionist exhibition and had coffee in the café garden. Great on a summer's day. The nearby garden is wonderful.

Charleston Farmhouse is such a lovely place steeped in history and art. It was such a magical visit - highly, highly recommended!

Lovely house and walled garden with a fine array of different plants and flowers.

We were lovely served by Izzy and Dan. The hospitality is very good! My meat was first overcooked but they offered me a new meal, which was perfectly cooked, and compensation. I enjoyed the rump steak very much! The ambiance was so nice. We had a really nice talk about Lewes and so many other things. A lovely place to be for a good meal and perfect service.

Exceptional service from Emma and team, we were a large group of 13 people celebrating 5 birthdays. We ordered from the large group set menu. Everything was delicious and arrived at the table in a timely manner. All additional requests were accommodated with ease and a smile. The restaurant is so pretty and cosy when it starts to get dark outside. Thank you for having us and helping us celebrate such a special evening

Jordan made our date breakfast much better by ensuring us hungry parents were full up on bottomless pancakes for the entire duration of a child free mornings. He made my husband 2 perfect cortados even though they weren’t on the menu. He was pleasant to chat to and confident when talking to us. Thanks Jordan and Bills for pancakes.

it was absolutely wonderful, the staff were welcoming and perfect, exactly what we’d expect from a restaurant like this. it was lovely to see management doing their part to serving the guests and making every part of the experience fantastic….we would 1000% come again

From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The service was impeccable throughout our visit—friendly without being overbearing, and always on hand just when you needed them. It’s clear the team takes pride in creating a relaxed yet polished dining experience. The food lived up to every expectation. Fresh, vibrant ingredients shine in every dish, from the beautifully presented starters to the generous mains. To top it all off, dessert was a true indulgence, a perfect end to the meal.

Everyone were very welcoming and the food was lovely. Teah was very lovely and put love into her job and made sure that she helped me with the menu and that everything was okay for us she checked on us and also made sure our little puppy was looked after. Will definitely come back again.

Bills is Bills...I don't expect the food to be exciting, but just solid and consistent. However, this branch has very good service and atmosphere is buzzing, even on weekdays.

Hidden gem in lewes, food came quick & service was great. Everything was fantastic, the duck in particular was amazing. Will be back!

This is by far the best and most authentic Thai food I have experienced in the UK! My wife is half Thai and has lived there and even she was amazed at some of the dishes available here that we haven't found anywhere else except Thailand itself. Its a BYOB, which we didn't mind at all. There is a corkage fee but it wasn't over the top by any means. The staff were lovely and were very quick to accommodate anything we asked for, including things like providing small bowls so we could share a larger soup like a starter and other random requests. If you are a fan of Asian food or especially Thai food and can get over to this restaurant I cannot recommend it enough! The venue is small, however, so it's best to book in advance as there's no guarantee you could get a table otherwise.

Great authentic Thai food. Lovely satay, so tender. Massaman chicken spicey peanut flavour. Helpful staff Fast service. Need to book. Bring own wine, small corkage charge, they provide gorgeous glasses. Optional chops. Would definitely return as best Thai food i have had probably including many meals in Thailand and other Asian countries.

Tiny BYOB Thai restaurant with an amazing wood decor. The food was fantastic and the service was faultless. Great little atmosphere. I would book to ensure a table. Love it!

Me and my wife booked a table for dinner, both ordered a chicken massaman curry, one with sticky rice, the other with coconut rice. My wife is coeliac and they catered for her with no issues, she felt fine afterwards and the day after. Also bear in mind, they do only have benches, no chairs with backs, some benches are against walls though. It was the best curry we've ever had, and we go to Thai restaurants everywhere we go, it was just incredible, we even ordered 2 more chicken massamans to take away for dinner the day after, if you're in Lewes and looking for somewhere to eat, eat here!

Lovely authentic Thai restaurant with fantastic food. BYO beer and wine with fair and reasonable corkage charge.

First trip for a few years. Great authentic food and helpful staff: it’s small of course so booking a must and no alcohol license but off license next door

Visited today for brunch. Food was delicious. So many delicious looking things to try it was hard to choose. Courtyard at the back looked quaint and appealing too. Service was very efficient, friendly and welcoming. Will return. Highly recommended.

The salon part we went in was very small but their are other areas within. Its a good local friendly bar clean pipes as the beer was tasty. Its around the back of the high street up the top end of Lewes. Has its own pizza place next door which is connected to the pub as the staff were wearing the pizza T-shirts. Didn't eat there so cannot comment on the pizzas quality.

Cosy pub located just off the main streets of Lewes. Staff is very friendly and attentive and the vibe is really nice. Sadly the roasts weren’t as great (small portions, high prices, gravy was watery, etc). But will give that the benefit of the doubt being unlucky 😊Side dishes (cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets) however were fantastic !

Lovely little Lewis pub with great selection of beer including Harvey's. Chilled vibe with bean bags out front. They do good pizza too apparently 👍🏻

Go there every few weeks to have what used to be brilliant pizzas but for the last three or four they have noticeable shrunk in size and have far fewer toppings. Soon I fear they will all turn into small bits of garlic bread costing £20 a pop.

A legendary local pub with a great selection of beers. The pizza is tasty and simple. A great spot to spend a few hours.

The food was so good and the cider too... Had the pork belly and the fish and chips. Was very happy when the food came out then he came back out with a Yorkshire...... Amazing. Fish and chips were very tasty and batter crunchy and delicious. I still can't orchard was available from the box and a couple of different bottles as well in the fridge lovely Easter Sunday.

Awesome pub, great pizza made in house and good beers on tap. Friendly staff. Whole place has a top vibe and character.

One of my favourite pubs. Just 5 minutes walk from the centre. Sadly next to the bypass so beer garden not as quiet as in days long gone by. Stunning views of the chalk cliffs. Great food and beer. Now limits opening to Thursday - Sunday. Site of Englands worst avalanche when 8 people died.

A lovely local pub with the cutest of fluffy dogs, the staff were friendly and made a cracking espresso martini! Chips and gravy and Welsh rarebit- 10/10. Would definitely recommend popping in if you're in the area!

Fantastic experience!! If you are looking for some quiet time in a beautifully presented restaurant this is the place to go. We went for breakfast and the whole experience was superb. Bacon was cooked to perfection with the French toast and the spinach was definitely cooked with something that gave it a home cooked meal taste. The staff were friendly and very informative about the area. I looked at the dinner menu which offered plenty of traditional French cuisine. Highly recommend Côte. If we weren’t travelling through I would definitely have been back to try dinner.

We have just had a lovely lunch in Cote in the quaint town of Lewes. Food was delicious especially as we were able to replace the triple cooked chips with gratin potatoes. We only had the two course lunch menu but the desserts looked delicious as well but decided to pass this time. Service was excellent and the time between courses was ideal, coffee is really good and quite substantial. We rated this as a really good lunch in a lovely restaurant, thank you.

Our hotel had a sudden power cut so we looked around Lewes and remembered this chain from another town. The welcome we received was fantastic and genuine... the ambiance was wonderful and the Christmas menu was absolutely superb! picture is of the Turkey Ballotine; quite sublime. Everything about our experience here was wonderful and the management should be proud of their staff as everyone was happy and helpful. Recommended. p.s. the Christmas cocktail was excellent too!

We fell in love with the Côte chain in Wokingham and have visited a number of sites since. The Lewes site is no exception to the rule. Staff excellent and so happy to be able to assist (my wife uses a mobility aid), service prompt and efficient. The food is always excellent and served hot as it should be, there is a good choice of wines and other drinks to accompany your food. Access is level from the pavement snd all the tables are on this level, disabled toilet and baby change on same level, main toilets downstairs.

We were there for a wedding reception. It was a really lovely restaurant, the area used by the wedding party intimate and cosy. The food was absolutely delicious, I heard no complaints from anyone. The wine was really quite good. The waiting staff were great. We'd return that's for sure.

had an early evening anniversary meal here as visiting the area and wanted a great steak. we were not disappointed and Steaks Frites and deluxe version with Sirloin were perfect. Great cocktails and amazing staff made for a special visit. thanks to the Cote team.

Don't have an "offer" then be mean spirited about it. Unlimited fries & sauces? Only after a nasty interrogation. Horrible behaviour. I'll not want to return. Your service standards have dropped hugely. There are good other options locally

Really enjoyable Sunday roast. Good service. Had the pork. Fair prices. Nice atmosphere in a very old building. Rather enjoyed the overall experience. It's my second time coming to the Pelham Arms. Definitely would come again. Thanks for an excellent meal!

Really great place, thought the food choice were really good and not the run of the meal both pub menus. The food was also really good, 8 of use had 7 different menus items and every single person was really happy with their food. Not rushed at all and great staff as well.

Probably the best pub in Lewes for food - very good quality and generous portions. A bit pricey but well worth it. The location is cosy in authentic English style. Great table service. The acoustic is good even when the pub is full. Delicious Christmas roast turkey in the photo.

Greeted with a warm welcome by the barman who took our order at the table. The wild mushrooms on sourdough were excellent, as were the fish goujon sandwiches. Excellent choice of real ales.

Came here for a Sunday Roast with some friends. As a vegetarian, I was very impressed with the options. Very reasonably priced, BIG portions and great tasting food. Would highly recommend! Lovely staff serving also!

I love everything about this pub! The team are so welcoming, the food is delicious and the pub itself great. Cosy in winter and the newly refurbished beer garden, perfect for summer lunching. Recently celebrated a wedding anniversary there, all our guests loved it too.

Great pub, superb ale & nice people. Update: small but innovative menu with huge portions & very sensible prices. The mains were different ama the puddings too die for. Very well kept ale and superb service from Lydia. It's not difficult to see why people recommend this pub.

Fantastic steak and ale pie and vegetables. Decent generous portions. We enjoyed it so much we came back for another 2 weeks later 😋 Nice friendly staff and atmosphere, good old style pub. A great find.

A first visit by Casta and Madge. I think I have been before. A CAMRA Good Beer Guide regular. Up to 8 real ales, six on my visit. Had the awful Kent brewery Pale.( Kent being toxic to a Sussex born Prince like me!) Actually very good. The front room was busy, the rear pool room quiet. Apparently been a pub from at leadt 1744.

Everyone local raves about this place, so of course I tried it out. I see nothing special, the food is nothing to write home about. It is fine, it fills you up it tastes ok, but to be honest it's hardly worth the trip or the price. Same goes for the service, the fake smile, the lack of speed, the interrupting before you've barely had a bite with the "everything ok for you" all basic and just standard. The atmosphere was the most disappointing, I expected a little upbeat town pub, nope, most of it felt put on and the locals gave it a mortuary feel. All in all, yeah go there for a place to eat and have a drink but the local hype is a facade or delusional.

A huge thank you to the lovely girls behind the bar for coming to my rescue and fixing my dress just in time for a wedding! They went above and beyond with such kindness and care — absolute stars. You made my day so much easier, and I can’t thank you enough! 💕

Very friendly staff, happy and helpful. Board games to occupy the children. A small, pretty, enclosed garden with lots of flowers. Food was very nice, but did have a giggle at the fact that the butter was hidden under the jacket potatoes.

amazing Sunday roast.. came hot n tasty.. service was very good.. young bar staff were very polite and helpful.. would 100 % come back here again

My type of pub. Traditional, friendly watering hole with a good selection of local ales. Central high street location in historic town of Lewes. I had Sussex Best. I didn't eat but the fish and chips on the table next to me looked super.

Truly delicious food and very kind and welcoming staff. We had a great pleasure to be able to dine in this place after hiking beautiful hills of Lewes

What a lovely find on a Tuesday in Lewes. Nice warm welcome and we had the best seat in the house. Nice atmosphere, music was nice and chilled as well. Popadoms came with a coconut paste which was amazing. Dhansak and a masala for the main course with a Peshawari nan, fantastic taste and flavours

Chose Shanaz after reading Google reviews - we were not disappointed. Waiting staff were very friendly and helpful (without being overbearing as can sometimes be the case in Indian restaurants!). The food was excellent and nicely presented. Plenty for vegetarians. We particularly liked that it was possible to choose the spice level (and they got it just right). Prices reasonable.

Don’t let the inside fool you. Despite it being in a basement, we’ve used this place as our yearly pilgrimage and it’s always been great. Staff were extremely good at hosting 11 people. The food was quick to come out and was proper nice too. If you’re wanting a tasty Indian, here’s the gaff for it. Yum.

The food was fine. However, I only gave it 3 stars because I felt that the food lacked flavour. With Indian food, I'm expecting flavours screaming out from the dishes. This was not the case. The sauce that I had with my chicken tikka based dish was lovely and creamy, but lacked flavour. For the first time ever I had to add salt. The service was excellent with efficient, friendly staff.

A pleasant atmosphere with attentive service, and a nice warm welcome. While the staff were courteous and helpful throughout the meal, the food itself felt really underwhelming. Chick tikka was a bit dry and tough, and the samosas and bhajis were almost certainly the frozen ones from a bag rather than homemade. It was just about ok, but lacking any flair or flavour depth to make it memorable or for us to want to return. Dishes were decent but didn’t barely above the standard fare found at average curry restaurants. Overall, a friendly place, nice atmosphere, good service, but not one that left a strong culinary impression.

Stumbled across this on a very quiet Wednesday evening however what a find! The food was amazing, incredibly tasty and fresh. The staff were friendly and attentive and would highly recommend.

London Gatwick Airport is a fantastic choice for travelers heading to London, Sussex, and Surrey! It's quite expansive, featuring a handy train service that connects the North and South terminals. The design of the airport makes it easy to get around, ensuring comfort and safety for everyone. You'll find a great variety of shops, including a lively food court and plenty of duty-free options to explore. It's a bustling place with a vibrant atmosphere! Navigating the airport is a breeze, thanks to clear signage and a smooth check-in process. While security can be a bit busy during peak times, overall, Gatwick is a convenient spot with solid facilities, shops, and dining choices to keep you satisfied during your travels.

Everything feels safe and efficient, and the staff are generally friendly and helpful. Security checks are quick and well-managed, and there are many signs and screens, so it’s easy to find your way around. I also appreciate how tidy and bright the airport is, which makes the whole atmosphere comfortable and stress-free. The only downside is the £7 drop-off charge, which feels a bit expensive, but apart from that, everything else is excellent. Overall, Gatwick is a great airport — clean, convenient, and reliable, making travel from London a smooth experience.

Good experience overall. The staff were willing to help which was nice and did smile. The security process was excellent and they were really easy to speak to. The waiting area is good and is informative for flights.

Where do I even start London Gatwick is just an amazing airport! It has great views great food options a vast route network everything! Gatwick makes you feel like you never left London a lot of their food options are local which is a nice touch. One small thing I dislike is that it’s busy and it might take a bit to pass security so make sure to come early! Lastly if you like seeing planes in the north terminal there are some easyjet gates a little bit detached from the main terminal but the walkway goes straight over an active taxiway! And if you go to the end of the walkway and don’t take the elevator or escalator down there is a small seatings area overlooking the 2 runways!

North Terminal Long Stay Car Park- You get 2 hrs free. Drop your passengers here or collect later. Parking location signs could be more plentiful. Bus stop has a simple reference only as shown. I waited at a stop for my pick up.. it was so full - only one section open to park.

Flew with Norwegian from here (South terminal) and it was smooth. Check-in, bag tag print and drop were via automated counters. Security was efficient and quick, plenty of restaurants, duty free options and lounges after security. The train from Victoria station was like 30 mins even though Gatwick express wasn’t working that day. Unexpectedly good choice.

I had an amazing experience at Heathrow Airport. Check-in and security were quick, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. The terminals were modern, spacious, and very easy to navigate. I loved the wide choice of shops, restaurants, and lounges, all spotless and well-maintained. With excellent transport links, Heathrow turned my travel into a smooth and enjoyable experience.

This review pertains predominantly to terminal 5. Richard Rogers and Mike Davies did a great job designing this modern and efficient terminal. My visit was for a connecting flight. I opted for the cross-terminal walkway rather than the shuttle. This was a great choice to stretch my legs between travel stints. T5 is well equipped with amenities, including frequent toilets and a range of duty free shops and establishments in addition to a number of eateries. Personally, I can see more room for eateries as I had to walk quite far (near gates A1-4) before I saw somewhere with a range of hot sandwiches or similar (Pret a manger). I did not want to sit down in the Wetherspoons, partly so as to not support Tim Martin but also partly as I did not feel like a sit down occasion met my specific needs of a “grab and go” type offering. The airport is well signed and there is abundant seating available as well as quiet spaces. Security for connecting flights had a small-but-slow-moving queue. As usual with airports they like to gate keep (quite literally) information that would indicate which gate you are departing from until the last possible minute, so as to encourage you to purchase from duty free. I was not so persuaded on this visit. Overall it does the job well, and is pretty efficiently run as an airport considering it is one of the worlds busiest airports with just two runways.

Heathrow Airport is one of the busiest in the world, and it definitely feels that way. While it offers a wide range of shops, dining, and services, the airport can be very crowded, and immigration checks often take a long time, especially during peak hours. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, but the overall experience can be tiring due to the rush and long waiting times.

It’s my second time flying from Heathrow. Today from terminal 5. I am blown away by the cleanliness and efficiencies of the place. So many shops with any kind of stuff, restaurants. If you forgot to take something from home don’t worry they will have your back. Amazing, huge and busy airport but run very smoothly and fast. I was able to buy some cosmetics in boots. I went to wagamama to have a lunch and coffee, also went to Itsu to have something for take away. Amazing ! I have the Heathrow app to collect the points whenever I purchase something on the airport. To get there from London is easy too, you just take one national express bus from Victoria coach station, it takes around 1h and 15 minutes. Very convenient.

✈️ My Visit to Heathrow Airport, London My experience at Heathrow Airport, one of the world’s busiest airports, was smooth and efficient. The airport is vast, modern, and well-organized, with five terminals serving international and domestic flights.

Heathrow offers a wide range of shops, duty-free stores, restaurants, lounges, and amenities, ensuring a comfortable experience whether you’re departing, arriving, or in transit. Free Wi-Fi and charging stations made it easy to stay connected, and the terminals are clean and well-maintained. Visitor Tips: Arrive early due to security checks and busy terminals. Use the Heathrow Express or London Underground (Piccadilly line) for quick access to central London. Pre-booking lounges can enhance your waiting experience.

Heathrow is one of the busiest airports in the world and it has excellent facilities and services. Locating boarding gates isn’t too difficult and their duty free is actually well stocked as well although not that much of a saving, things are a bit more expensive here than other airports in Europe. Definitely one of the best airports have travelled through.

Heathrow is a nice airport with lots of shops and places to eat. It’s clean, easy to get around, and staff are generally helpful. It does get super busy at peak times and things can feel a bit pricey, but overall it’s a solid airport for travel.
