The Guide says: "This former single-car garage is hidden away. Its a modest, quirky little place and seats 21 around a horseshoe counter. The food is Italian, with fresh ingredients cooked simply and natural flavours allowed to shine."

The Guide says: "A charming Victorian pub with a pleasingly shabby-chic feel. Ornately carved woodwork sits comfortably alongside more recent additions like bowler hat lampshades. Menus list pub staples alongside some more interesting dishes with a subtle modern style. The dessert cocktails are worth a try."

The Guide says: "You enter into this striking mock-Tudor building via a beautiful antique revolving door. The original, highly seasonal menu has a European accent and gives the odd nod to North Africa; Sussex produce is to the fore and vegetarians are well catered for."
