These are the Hastings and Rother area pubs we think should have been included in the 2022 Good Beer Guide
There were some excellent choices of pubs from the local area listed and described in CAMRA’s beer bible The Good Beer Guide for 2022, but we feel there were some excellent outlets that missed out and should have been there.

These include the oldest pub in St Leonards, a Hastings pub that brews its own beer, a brewery tap for a popular local brewery and a Wetherspoons pub that is listed by Tripadvisor as being the best one in Sussex.
The Horse and Groom, at Mercatoria, is the oldest pub in St Leonards and has been run for many years by landlord David Sansbury. David is an excellent cellarman and the pub caters to the demands of its clientele with a good range of changing real ales. There often three beers on at any time and Harvey's is a regular.

The Two Sawyers in Pett village was once a Good Beer regular entry and we feel it sghould be in there still. Good, well kept beers in lovely surroundings. Usually offers popular Sussex beer Harveys on draught. SUS-220131-090210001

The Robin Hood pub at Icklesham is a family run pub that has won community awards. It has a reputation for its good food, but alos has a good range of interesting well-kept beers that change regularly. In January it hosted a Wassail celebration and offered a huge selection of local ciders. SUS-220131-090240001
