"Our visit last night Thursday, June was not our first, and it won't be our last. Wadhurst has needed a fine restaurant like this and now seems to have got it at last. The menu immediately strikes you as on par...with the best in London, even if there are only half-a-dozen dishes listed. Last night, my wife chose the fish-of-the day, which was sole with crispy capers, samphire, jersey royals and lemon butter. I chose organic local chicken supreme with garlic, mozzarella, tomato and crushed potatoes. Mine was perfect, my wife's less so. The chef had been a little too generous with the lemon butter, or was it olive oil? There was one other fish on the list, and a vegetarian meal. The wines are very expensive, but there are some excellent beers available, our favourite being Harvey's best bitter. As for the general pricing policy, which has a lot of locals complaining, we think that for two courses or for three is reasonable. And perhaps this is a deliberate ruse to discourage families with noisy children in order to provide a place of rest for others. The waitresses could not be more friendly and polished, at the same time un-intrusive. We like the piped music, which is in the form of soothing songs with the level kept low. The new seats, too, are really cushioned armchairs. I would have liked the complimentary hot bread with butter to be granary, and I would have liked to see a side salad on the menu for a healthier meal. But altogether, every good wish is due to the owners Sussex Pass and the chef Adam Sear. We'll certainly go back, but we'll also keep watching them, for signs of their losing their nerve. Wadhurst, with some shops on the High Streets, badly needs them."

"What a wonderful find! My partner and I recently stayed at a nearby glamping site and couldn't resist visiting this gem of a restaurant multiple times. The food was exceptional, probably the best pub food I've ever had. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. As we were on our honeymoon, we couldn't stop talking about it, which led to us sharing drinks with some locals who helped us celebrate. I've never been to such a welcoming pub before, it was truly a fantastic experience. Despite walking through heavy rain on our last night, I was determined to have another burger from there. We sat by the open fire to dry off and enjoyed a few pints. It was a memorable experience that made me not want to leave. Thank you for a wonderful time, we will definitely be returning."

"very good pub lunch, the roast was very nice and the fish was very good. the venue is easy to get to, very good and plenty of parking. tables outside for the summer. Overall we liked this very much, it is close enough to Tonbridge wells for us to choose this over other village pubs and we definitely think we will return. Regarding price, I thought is was a slight bit over priced for a pub lunch, but would not stop a return visit. Menu is quite varied and you can have fresh pizza if you fancy. Children's portions and colouring pad for the kids."

"Six of us visited here two nights running for dinner and had an outstanding experience. The host was congenial; and efficient in making sure the service was second to none. The staff were very friendly, responsive and attentive and the food was top notch. The home made steak and ale pies were a real stand out the best we've had anywhere for many a year. The chef also pulled out all the stops to make us a delicious apple crumble (taken off the menu) thanks to a neighbour who was able to supply the apples. We wish we were local we would certainly be regulars. IF you are in the area then this place is worth a detour. Here's to the next time"

"Went for Sunday lunch with my wife and her very elderly Aunty. Lovely quaint old country pub (so obviously, disabled access not great, but staff quick to help). Given a nice table in the conservatory, which was fine until a large family with two babies took the table next door, then we couldn't make Aunty hear anything we shouted at her....the landlady was very understanding and (even though they were very busy) found us a quieter table inside. Sunday roasts were very nice, I had the mixed roast dinner, roast beef was best, next chicken, next pork, last lamb (a bit chewy). Roast potatoes and veg excellent. Portions of mint sauce were pretty meagre, no cranberry sauce for the chicken, you have to pay extra for more gravy. Pudding were good, massive piece of sticky toffee pudding. Service very good, didn't get rushed to finish. Would come again."
