Book Direct: Best Rates + Benefits

Best Pub in Ditchling

Our 500-year-old pub is set in the very heart of Ditchling –  a chocolate box village, with impressive South Downs views, and rustic charm by the bucket-load. The beer garden is a bit of alright too, you know.

 The epitome of a Sussex country inn, we have six hideaway bedrooms, which are spot-on for weekend getaways and summer holiday mini breaks; especially for those who want to be close to Brighton (without all the hustle-and-bustle).

Our bar is full-to-the-rafters with friendly locals, and you’re always guaranteed a chin-wag. With local ales (yes – we proudly serve Harvey’s) cool craft-y beers, super-sippable summer cocktails, and some cork-poppingly good wines from around the world.

You’re going to love our food too. Head Chef Henri cooks up a storm in the kitchen, and loves whipping up piled-high-plates of comfort food. From your favourite pub classics – such as crispy fish & chips, hearty pies, and banging bangers & mash – to our blackboard specials, showcasing local produce. Oh, and our Sunday roast is blooming scrumptious too (if we do say so ourselves)

Phil & the team can’t wait to welcome you to our oh-so-charming pub.

Father’s Day

Nothing says thanks for being my Dad/Step-Dad/Baby Daddy/Grandad (delete as appropriate) better than a family trip to your fave Ditchling pub.

That’s why it’s a big day (and a big deal) for us. Be sure to book a table for a seriously button-popping Sunday roast in the pub, or for drinks & nibbles in the garden, or wander in for a swift half at the bar.

Season for Spritz

Food (and drinks) just tastes better when it’s enjoyed outside – preferably on a balmy summers day.

But our Spritz serves taste especially scrumptious, because they’ve been crafted with holidays in mind. Think lime, mint, passionfruit and coconut – blissful.
