The Kings Head - (Near East Sussex, South East)

Carl Jeffrey The rural riverside setting is perfect for anyone who loves countryside walks or fancies hiring a rowing boat to explore the river. I was hiking solo on a multi-day trek from Brighton to Rochester when I came across the Anchor Inn. It was a warm early evening, and as I ordered a refreshing pint in the front bar, the landlord Simon (who had never met me before) immediately noticed my rucksack and said: “If you’re looking for somewhere to pitch your tent tonight, you’re very welcome to use the field behind the pub.” It was such a generous offer that I gladly accepted. I spent the evening enjoying a few pints in the company of Simon and his staff, who made me feel completely at home. I didn’t eat during my stay, though the food looked excellent, but I can vouch for a superb pint of Harvey’s Best Bitter. The following morning, as I was packing up at 8am, Simon even walked over with a cup of tea – an incredibly thoughtful gesture that summed up the hospitality I experienced here. I truly can’t thank Simon and his team enough. The Anchor Inn is a brilliant riverside pub, and I’ll definitely be returning with friends. Highly recommended!

Kelvin Henry The food was amazing everything was fresh and piping hot great service definitely will return

Angeline Frizzell We havent been able to experience this bistro as it is impossible to park.

Claire Jones Extremely happy with the service provided. We have now bought our second lot of Silkie hatching eggs after having such a good hatch rate from our previous order. Zoe goes out of her way to keep you updated and offer advice where needed. Thank you, would highly recommend.

Peter Groves Good place for a cup of tea and piece of cake before the show

Ben Davies I arranged a private lunch for 20 guests and it couldn’t have gone better. From the first enquiry, the team were organised, responsive, and incredibly helpful with all the planning details. On the day, the room looked lovely, the service ran smoothly, and the food was absolutely delicious fresh, seasonal, and great value. My guests were so impressed. A big thank you to the whole team, especially Meghan, for making it such a success.
