Best Historic Restaurants in Newhaven

An excellent meal in a lovely restaurant. First time for a long time on a Sunday so the Wellington roasts were a pleasant surprise. The highlight for me was the Cauliflower Wings with a hoisin sauce.

I brought a friend for her birthday and she had a lovely time. Our server Jamie was very helpful about my allergies. Thank you!

We had the dish of the day which was Monkfish & it was absolutely stunning!! There is a Gluten free menu too.

We were served by a lovely lady at the bar who was taking all the orders on her own, who I think was quite new to the job or to recent changes to the menu maybe. I felt for her having no support. She was very apologetic for any delay in taking orders and I could see it upset her that she couldn’t do her job to her full potential. But she certainly gave it her all. One guy seemed to bring the food to the tables and I didn’t see any other waiting staff. They were both really lovely friendly people. And it didn’t affect our visit. But I did feel they could have done with another pair of hands to support them. The food was lovely. The kids burgers were a good size and a nice quality meat. The pub itself is cosy and friendly. We will return. Thanks.

Gorgeous decor, good ambience, lovely staff, good food.
