Pevensey pub 'thrilled' to achieve five-star food hygiene rating
A pub in Pevensey has been awarded a five-star food hygiene rating.
The Royal Oak & Castle Inn in High Street was inspected on Tuesday (November 10).
The village pub, opposite Pevensey Castle, was granted a public house license in 1854 and adopted its current name in 1877.
Posting on social media to share the news, the pub said it was ‘thrilled’ to have earned the highest rating.


Landlady of The Royal Oak & Castle Inn Hayley said: “Our kitchen team have absolutely smashed it, and I couldn’t be more thankful for their hard work and dedication.
“Garth took care of today’s visit, but this is a whole team achievement. A huge thank you to Garth, Vicky, Bradley and the rest of our pub team — it’s the effort you put in every day that makes this possible.
“And a big shout-out to Marc, who smashed the brewing side of the visit too!
“We’re so lucky to have such a dedicated team who care about what they do. Please join us in giving them all a massive well done!”
