As vegan, its really hard to find a pub that does vegan food. If they do its normally a burger or mushroom something. The vegan choices here are great and really tasty. I had the BBQ Jack Fruit potato skins which were delicious and the vegan steak! Well worth a try if you are vegan!
Lovely pub for families.Service was great, if a little slow but Tara our waiting staff was on her own handling many tables with a smile and a great friendly attitude.The play area is a great size with swings, slide and wooden climbers and all tables had an umbrella.The play area could do with some shade though.Food was good and came out quick.Will definitely go again.
Great place for the family. The childrens adventure park bit is fantastic.Parents can drink a beer in peace whilst the little munchkins keep themselves busy. Its a clear view also. So no need to get paranoid where theyve gotten themselves.Only gone for drinks and a few bowls of chips. But the portions I saw others eating seemed adequate and smelt quite nice 👌Good largers on tap.
This was a bit of a find.Very friendly accomodating staff (serving a group of 40 of us without batting an eyelid!)The food was delicious (I had a burger, he had steak and the smalls had fish fingers which went down VERY well). Also was a good-looking menu of options for next time.The best thing about the pub though, was the enormous pub garden complete with a great kids playground which kept them busy and left us time to eat and enjoy the peace!
Nice cozy place,with an ample garden ,staff attentive and friendly, definitely recommended for those weekend days where we want to relax and have a good drink..
Excellent food and service. Wonderful place for a special meal. Food presented amazingly well and staff couldnt have been more helpful.
This pub is always good for service with a lovely friendly team that look after you. We ate inside on a very busy Sunday and the young guy looking after us was brilliant. Food is very nice and we had roasts and the veggie roast and all had puds. It’s a busy place and lots of families but we always enjoy a visit here, dog friendly as well so what more could you want. So glad it’s local enough to walk to. Thanks to all the team.
Very poor hygiene, filthy tables, no cleaning in between customers. Slow service, but friendly service. Young staff didn’t seem in control of the place so I hate to see the state of the kitchen
Great size portions, recommend the hunters chicken!
I havent been in there for years, I walk past it quite often and that is a fantástico experiencia
Good food could be hotter! Good place for kids for play area.Expensive though. Waiter service could be quicker.
Lovely meal and only one happy to serve food 3pm Saturday afternoon. Recommend it
Lovely Pub with high quality food and a good mixture of foods available, the roast looks very good but not had one yet. Good range of drafts available and a decent selection of wine to boot. Big spacious garden area with a sturdy play area with climbing frame for kids, all with ample parking. All in all a really great pub and good value for money.
Great pub with a huge garden. Great beer, Harveys of course. Live music in the garden was very relaxing. Grandkids enjoyed the play area. We will be back.
The food was great and portions were very generous. Service was good, they were so accommodating of our group
Plesent family pub. Large outdoor area with covered seating and play area for kids, service is excellent but can be slow when busy, but I guess that would be expected. Standard pub menu with service charge added automatically. Unless Im mistaken I couldnt find any prices on the drinks menu which had to be asked for. This is based on 4 visits since pubs came out of lockdown.
Good selection of food including an above average choice for vegans. Nice big garden. Friendly staff.
Great food. Wonderful staff particularly Tara. Had a great time
Visited on Saturday. Calamari is top notch. Staff is 10/10. Really attentive and kept my drinks following. Cheesy chips were great, so was the pork belly. Highly recommend
Poor table service staff dont know there drinks .Asked what whiskeys they did and they thought jack Daniels and Kentucky bourbon is a whiskey, eventually found out they did two malt whiskeys once I ordered they then came back and said they didnt have the said whiskey so asked for another one but they only had on shot left! These whiskey were common and not hard to source ( Glenfiddich and Glenmorangie) had one drink and left
Great for families. Good play area for kids.
A great pub and beer garden. Equally, the food and service is lovely.
Tasty pub food, had the Sunday roast. Nice play area.
After I messed up our booking (right time, wrong day🤦🏻♂️) The folks here did an amazing job to squeeze us a table over a fully-booked weekend. You could see the team were working under stressful conditions but handled it all really well. The food and drinks came out in good time despite the number of patrons, and it was delicious. Special shout out to who I presume is the manager who was running the show from behind the bar like an absolute boss. 🙌
Great pub, food and service. Very enjoyable.
Nice atmosphere, its clean and the staff were friendly there is an outdoor beer garden with a play area for kids which is lovely too.
Friendly atmosphere lovely beer garden and great food!
Amazing food, 1st class service. Excellent beer and they provided a pianist and the sun.Couldn’t ask more from our new found favourite pub.100% on the SD regulations front too.
Great place to take children as they have a great climbing frame/slide.Food very tasty.
Staff were very friendly and the food was amazing. Play park provided lots of fun for our little one. Will be visiting again!
Great little village pub. Friendly staff and good beer. 5/5.
Went for lunch yesterday. Lovely setting and excellent food. Nice and relaxing. I have rebooked for Fathers Day!
Great food, lovely garden. Pub is wheelchair accessible with a nice size accessible loo
Lovely pub very friendly staff.
Great open space, good food and service, friendly
Pleasant spot in the garden, very friendly helpful staff all in all a nice place to meet up with friends in the sun
Nice view, food was alright, friendly staff.
This pub is a great example of half measures. You would think with a name like The Farmers, there would be a wealth of fresh food, well cooked but nothing is further from the truth. Lets start however with the environment.Of course, everyone in the country is in the same boat in terms of eating and drinking outdoors and so many venues have gone to good lengths to make the experience as pleasant as possible. Not The Farmers, they have managed to put up a marquee, but half the area is fully covered, the other half has a gaping 1m hole at the bottom where they have chosen to not deal with the fact their decking area is over two levels, so wind and rain whips through around your legs. How about if you are dining in the evening and perhaps would like some light? Youll be out of luck unless dining in the gloom is your thing. And forget about any heaters, blankets or anything else to help ease your chill, so make sure, if by some reason you feel you should go, that you wrap up warm. One last thing, the signs for no smoking or vaping, pointless. Guests ignore them, staff ignore the guests ignoring the signs, so expect while relaxing to sit in a fog of cigarette and vape smoke, just like 2006!The food hardly makes the experience any better. Thick, lifeless batter on the salt and pepper squid, black pudding that would lose in a contest against cardboard, a beef hash on the specials menu that would be an embarrassment to a greasy spoon and an inedible banoffee pie with the weirdest cream Ive had the displeasure to try. This is a pub getting so far ahead of themselves they have forgotten the basics, like taste the food you are sending out. My advice, get rid of your specials, retreat to a few, much simpler dishes so you can get the basics right and cook, cook and cook again until you have some semblance of decency. And think so carefully about your guests comfort too. Until then I would avoid.
Good food not overly expensive.
Great food, service and amazing play area for the kids.
Great place definitely recommend their food amazing play area for kids
Decent pub food.
Stopped here for lunch en route to a camping trip. Lovely dining area and clear signposting about the one-way system etc. All table service which also made things easy. Good choice for the kids and we had a healthy salad and a very fulsome ploughmans - one of the best I have had actually. Decent place to try.
Service was dreadful. Waiting staff had no idea. Waited an hour and a half for food, had to keep asking for same drinks that didn’t arrive. Food was good but horribly let down by poor service. Waiters chatting to friends and ignoring customers, very disappointing.
The Farmers was great as usual. I had the traditional burger which was really filling so I couldnt finish my chips but the rest of the party cleaned their plates. They all had the fish and chips which they couldnt fault. Unfortunately there was no room for pudding but they all looked delicious. Linda.
Good food, good service. Chips were great!
Lovely Garden Great ploughmans and good service
10/10 food, the chips and tartar sauce were highlights
Great place to have a meal with little ones. Lovely play area with spacious outdoor seating makes the dining experience relaxed. Food is great, friendly staff and decent prices. We will visit again.
Large pub with plenty of room for social distancing. Well organised, clean, a large garden, friendly staff , decent pub food and good beer. Hard to see what else you need really. Its also less that 5 minutes drive from the Princess Royal hospital in Haywards Heath so a good place to know about if you are visiting the hospital.
Really liked the Farmers food was good and not too expensive. We we twice in a few days. The first time sat in the garden as we had a pup with us. Everything was brought out to the table. Second time we were in the family room. Really good staff and friendly couldnt be more helpful. A big thank you to all. Its appreciated.
Excellent food great garden too
Great place to bring a family for lunch or dinner. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, good beers and the food is good value, generous portions and very tasty. The kids playground is great as well.
Lovely food and staff, great pub
The veg roast was highly delicious! And the wild mushroom mousse starter was also delicious. Full marks
Reasonable pub grub.
Warm, inviting and incredibly friendly. The food was amazing. We will definitely be returning.
Bar staff were lovely
Lovely food great service
Great food. Friendly and efficient staff. Highly recommended.
Great place and food
Sunday lunch - place was quite busy. Guy with specs greeted us as we came in and made us feel welcome. Food took a while to arrive, but thats because there were several family groups of 6 or more so understandable. Food was in generous portions and well cooked; beware if you order the ploughmans as its gigantic and even bigger than the mains. Prices are also good - we had 2 mains and 1 lunch for £43. Would recommend a try if you want a nice atmosphere with large meals at a budget and friendly staff.
Amazing chocolate bread in the bread selection
Lovely Pub and restaurant although having now visited on a few occasions Id like to see more choice on the menus and the Kids menu needs a revamp but thats a personal opinion. Staff and management super as on all of my visits.
This was a lovely pub that is still a place the locals seemed to like and there was a lively atmosphere in the bar area. The service was excellent with lively banter. The food was good.
Lunch at the Farmers today was a mixed experience. Service, although a little slow, was excellent. It was busy in the pub but our waiter was extremely polite and friendly. The menu is pretty good and as vegiterian, the choice was good. Prices are a little cheaper than average but the portion was a little small. I had vegetarian shepherds pie and my wife, the blackbean burger special which, although tasty, was way too small to fill the delicious brioche bun. The coleslaw garnish was lovely but again not enough. My shepherds pie was less well executed being dry and a little lacking in taste. The accompanying vegetables were overcooked and dry. I asked for some gravy which arrived promptly and definitely improved my dish.
Been here twice now and both times we found the staff to be very welcoming. Its a lovely old style pub with a great varied menu which includes specials of the day. The wait isnt long for the food or drinks either. We shall definitely be going back.
Lovely local pub. With a good mix of local people from the village. Some real characters. Great food and a relaxing ambiance.
Took a while for food to come, but it was very busy, and it was exceptionally tasty.
Lovely place. Nice staff
Finished up for fizzy Orange after doing group circular walk. Nice local very friendly & warm service and spacious.
Great service food was really nice, good play area for kids, ten out of ten
Amazing food and the kids love the garden. Friendly service.
I had driven past this pub a couple of times and it looked really nice from the outside and after reading the reviews I decided to book a table for an evening meal.The pub was as nice inside as it looked on the outside and the staff were accommodating and also friendly. What really let the evening down was the food. 2 rare steaks came out seconds away from being well done, the peppercorn sauce tasted like burnt gravy, my girlfriend ordered the lasagne and that was dry and burnt, a friend ordered a burger and that was also way overcooked and dry, 2 other people ordered the cajun chicken and that was bland and boring. When we were asked how the food was ,we did say the steak wasnt cooked how we asked and the waitress said she would inform the kitchen, however we never heard any follow up.We had ice cream for dessert (as this isn’t cooked) and that was fine, and the beer was good and the selection of spirits.Everything about this pub was fine, nice place, clean, friendly staff but the food was awful. I’m sure we were unlucky, however at £40 a head for an awful meal is a high price to pay. We weren’t in a position to start sending food back as people had 2 hour + journeys home. I did email the pub privately regarding this matter, as I didn’t want to plaster how bad my experience was online. Unfortunately my email wasn’t even acknowledged so I decided to not be so courteous and let you all know how my evening was there.
I had my second meal at the Farmers within a week! First with friends and secondly with family. (Tuesday and Monday evening) Very good food and we were extremely well looked after on both occassions.
Pleaant pub with friendly staff, service was good. Food well cooked and reasonably priced. We had lunch here before popping to Sheffield Park to see the autumn colours.
Had a group dinner here for Sunday roast, the staff were very helpful and communicative leading up to and throughout the meal.Wonderful vibe, great play area, large outdoor space.The majority of our group were children and they loved it.Thank you!
Last minute boxing Day family lunch for about 30 people. Thrilled The Farmers could accommodate us after our original restaurant cancelled us last minute! We even had our own space! Great food, friendly staff and even a playground we would see from our eating area. Highly recommend!
Food was ok, glad I didnt have to pay full price (thanks Rishi) as it wasnt worth it. Service incredibly slow, waited nearly an hour for our food....in fact this is a recurring theme so for that reason we wont be visiting again
Lovely country pub. We really enjoyed our Sunday lunch there. Our meal was delicious and nicely presented. Deserts are to die for! Would definitely recommend it.
We had a lovely meal at the Farmers on Saturday 22nd February food was excellent and service was extremely good our only criticism was the baked bread that came with a fish dish was very hard and too salty could not eat it as we might of had a large expensive dentist bill if we did
Great service with a smile and well organised in these strange times
Absolutely beautiful place to have a family meal. The staff are fantastic, the food sublime and not at all expensive. A huge play area out the back means your kids can play safely.An absolute credit to Jack and the team! Well definitely be back again and again!
Hands down my favourite pub! Always a fantastic experience and atmosphere at The Farmers. Thanks again for the great dinner last week, we look forward to returning again soon to try more of the menu!
Consistently great place. Good friendly family feel to it; great service and good food. Sunday roasts are particularly good
Burger was nice but bland. Hunters chicken was best my other half had ever had she said. Forgot a couple bits on the order so cannot give 5 stars. Do visit here though
Great Pub with large garden and a play area for the Kids. Just got back from a birthday party held in the garden and enjoyed a brilliant Hog roast. Well done to Jack and the team for a wonderful afternoon...love the place.
Big beer garden, perfect for children
Amazing food and even better service. Found this beautiful pub by chance when travelling through and we will definitely be back again.
