We generally love this pub, but just lately it's seems to have gone down hill in a big way. We had a large group for roast Sunday lunch, one of the main issues was that the staff could not even provide a decent enough carving...knife to actually cut the beef nor indeed the chicken. After 5 attempts, we found a poor knife but all the other food had gone cold, also the vegetable s over salted. We had a nice day and the manager apologised and gave us a nice bottle of sparkling. We won't be rushing back! £600 spent.More

I was delighted when friends suggested we went to the Duke of Cumberland for an early lunch on the way somewhere. We were first through the doors and so there was no excuse for the poor service we received. No menus were available and we...had to wait 20 minutes for them to be printed. We were told they would be brought out but ended up having to go in again to prompt them. The staff had forgotten as they were too busy discussing their social lives. The food did arrive promptly and was average. The condiments we asked for never arrived because again the staff seemed more interested in their social lives. We left feeling "incidental".More

We haven’t eaten here for a while and after an underwhelming Saturday lunch I remember why. The menu was uninspiring and not well executed. The scallop starter was drowned in lettuce balsamic glaze and Parmesan and the bacon wasn’t crispy. The crab and lobster pasta...was light on seafood heavy on cream and Parmesan and at £28 was overpriced. Service was not bad but also not great. For the price tag it should have been better. There are better places to eat in the area.More

As Londoners we do not hesitate to make the journey here for a very special roast pork and have made it many times,The setting of this centuries old pub is idyllic overlooking South Downs and it is obviously very popular and the seamless service can...only be attributed to staff who enjoy their working environment. So why is it so special.Well you reserve your loin of pork in advance and it is served to you on a large wooden board accompanied by pork crackling, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes,selection of vegetables not withstanding Yorkshire pudding.The pork is delicious tender and full of flavour and you carve it.All the vegetables are fresh and aldente and roast potatoes crispy on the outside but soft inside. What is amazing on one of our visits in May meant tables had chosen the advanced booking but some chose beef and chicken all presented for and at each table. It is obviously a military operation carried put seamlessly by affable laid back engaging Simon the chef and Katherine front of houseMore

The food was amazing and presented beautifully (see photos); crayfish and prawn salad to start, steak salad for main and an Eton mess for pudding. Very nice indeed. The menu detailed the dishes more elaborately than I could describe here but I didn't take a...photo of it. The service was very good, the dining room was very nicely presented with a nice atmosphere. Very reasonably priced and we will definitely be back soon. I have already been telling my friends and work colleagues about this place.More

Celebrated our Golden Wedding Anniversary with family and friends here A Magical evening, superb food and service. Thank you Simon, Ali and the team. We could not have asked for better than this

Beautiful setting. Slow start. Took half an hour to get drinks. Once order was in service became really good. Staff lovely. Food delicious and very filling

Love this place and previously had a great experience. Sadly this time got charged for drinks we didn’t have. Had the worst steak I have ever eaten, plus had to send back another plate that was awful. Wasn’t the owner in the kitchen I understand...who does produce great food. Just really disappointed with the food considering the amount of money I spent.More

Wow, what a amazing meal. The staff couldn’t do enough and the food was absolutely outstanding. A must visit …. We will be back!!! The views are breathtaking.

Great place stunning views , Amazing service even better food. One of those pubs you must visit.

Lovely food, great staff 👏 food and service were both excellent, couldn't fault anything about it!

We used to love this place. Unfortunately it has gone seriously downhill. Unfriendly service, uninspired menu, and disinterested management .
