Best Gastro Pubs in Polegate

Always lovely to eat at The Royal. Great food, service and ambience.

Delightful old pub by the Ashdown forest. Good menu and service. Genuinely surprised by the quality of the food. Fully recommend. Staff welcoming and attentive. And most important - the plates were warmed. Nice coffee too. Will be booking another lunch there soon.

Pork roast was amazing. I called it my "death row dinner." It would be the food I'd order as my last meal, for the pure enjoyment! Brilliant service, always lovely to go there and such lovely staff who make you feel like friends and family.

Food amazing service great nothing overpriced would definitely recommend this is the third time we have been there and great experience evey time also best Sunday lunch i’ve ever had dinning out.

We had a lovely early dinner at the Rainbow. We took my autistic brother, and the staff were polite, friendly and welcoming, and fully accommodated his needs, i.e allowing us to choose a quiet place to sit, offering to give him more time to choose his drink if he needed it. The food was great (beefburger, chicken burger, squid linguine, followed by the brownie and a waffle with ice cream). We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you.
