"Very warm, comfortable pub. Out of 16 of us not one person was disappointed with any part of their meal. Looking at the menu, you may think it is expensive, but you get your moneys worth, very tasty food and generous portions. Only one negative..please make your chicken caeser salad more exciting with more ingredients. Staff were friendly and welcoming. The pub and toilets were exceptional clean and tidy. We are all looking forward to returning in the new year Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Bangers Mash, Fish and Chips, Seafood Platter, Ham Egg, Steak and Ale Pie, Chocolate Brownie, Sticky Toffee Pudding, Apple and Blackberry Crumble, Cod Loin, Burger and Chips"

"I sat here on Sunday with the roast family for lunch and enjoyed my meal, which was beef. I would say that the bark was very tender, and there were many meerrettich. besides the roasted carrots came both greener and red cabbage and a carrot. this is next to a yorkshire pudding that was a good size, although I had much bigger, both at dunnings mill and at red lion. ideally, I would give this pub 3.7-3.9 stars. that is the heavy and flesh not as hot as they came out, and the heavy, although they are a deep brown in color, not so tasteful. in this sense I wouldn't be the following positive: all employees were very nice and the service was the best I had in a pub. they always collected the plates immediately, offered to get drinks, and were quick to take our orders. eating came very fast, and that was when it was very busy. the desert I had was also very good: apfel and rhubarb nut crumble with custard. I would recommend it."

"We go to Gravetye 3 or 4 times a year if we can and have been going for many many years over the tenures of several owners. It 's always a complete joy, and the current owner has done a fabulous job of getting the right people in, both inside and out. Tom Coward, the Head Gardener (ex. Dixter) has a vision and a long term plan that make continual visits over an extended period a joy every time we visit we are surprised by the continual changes we learn so much and the garden staff are super helpful and willing to discuss what they 're up to and why. The amazing oval massive kitchen garden that supplies the hotel is a source of wonderment and not to be missed. A visual and culinary feast. We 've never stayed there as we live reasonably close, but have eaten in both the old and new dining rooms many times. The new dining room sits harmoniously between the wings of the manor and although a very modern glass and steel construction, the inclusion of a fabulous antique (and uneven) parquet floor (ex. some french chateau) softens the feel and acoustics, making the room almost intimate. The floor to ceiling windows bring you right into the garden, even in the foulest of weather it 's a triumph of design. Then there 's the food. Apart from the presentation, which is exquisite, the flavours and textures always bring a broad grin, however grumpy I am! This is absolutely first rate British cuisine; the kitchen under Head Chef George Blogg is to be commended, as are the garden staff producing the freshest of produce. I occasionally try to photograph the plates, but invariably find I 've forgotten that rather crass move and have just launched in! Must also mention the front of house staff. Perfectly presented and mannered, they know exactly the boundary between staff and guest and make you feel completely comfortable and relaxed there is nothing stuffy or obsequious about Gravetye everything is pitched just spot on and nothing is too much trouble. We were there today for a birthday treat, but will be back again soon for a post family wedding get together. Cannot recommend too highly just an excellent few hours, whatever the weather. Walkability: Lots of paths. The lower areas are easy for those with limited mobility, however it might be tricky to get up to the kitchen garden if you 're not great on your feet. Food drinks: See my review."

"We had a wonderful experience at this charming pub filled with interesting trinkets to admire. The hosts were fantastic and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. With a group of 8 (7 adults and a 2-year-old), we stopped in after a day of pumpkin picking in search of a place to have a meal. The food was outstanding, freshly prepared to order with generous portions. Thank you for a lovely afternoon. The price per person ranged from £10 to £20."
