Harden's survey result
Summary
“A dependable favourite ever since it opened” – this “elevated pub” near Hove seafront is part of a hugely popular four-strong local chain; with its “upmarket take on sausages and mash with kale or a lovely slow-cooked beef pie”, it’s “more akin to a restaurant (with a nice bar attached)” than a boozer, and a “buzzy atmosphere” is guaranteed. Top Tip – stay over in their “quirky rooms” (in either the main building or self-catering mews houses); one reporter who did so “could not think of eating anywhere else” after the first night (resulting in “six meals, including terrific breakfasts, in three days!”).
Summary
“A favourite restaurant” (and one of GQ magazine’s Top 10 UK pubs) – this outpost of a much-liked and four-strong local chain, near the Hove seafront, is an “always-dependable” choice for its “brilliant food and service” (the latter consisting of gastroboozer fare plus fancier options like vegetarian tasting plates).
Summary
A “classy member” of a well-known local group, this “great gastropub a few yards from Hove seafront” “serves Paris bistro-style food, with a few innovative touches such as rabbit Scotch egg”. “A lovely place for any meal, with an always-tempting menu: it never disappoints”.
Summary
“Just fantastic”, say fans of this Hove gastropub-with-rooms (from the local Gingerman group), which generates nothing but enthusiastic feedback. “I’ve been here lots, eaten lots of croquettes and pies, and every time it’s a winner…”, “year after year there’s nowhere better for wonderful seasonal local food”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
