Mandarin Garden - (Near East Sussex, South East)

Houssam Selma I just want to say a huge thank you to Ben, the owner, who’s been an absolute gentleman! I recently hired the downstairs venue to host my partner’s baby shower and birthday, and the staff were nothing short of incredible. Big shoutout to Fred and the whole team for making the day so special! We had such a wonderful experience — everything went perfectly — and I honestly can’t wait to hire the venue again. Ben, you’ve created such an amazing place with fantastic service. Until next time!

Andy Handprint Excellent snacks, particularly the Coxhina. Great scratchings. For those who like making stock, they sell pigs trotters. All the meat looks pretty good and is a reasonable price. Friendly staff too.

Nick Simmons We’ve visited this pub a few times over the last few weeks. It’s much, much better than I remember. Yesterday I was looked after by Edie, as a family have got to know her quite well and one of the main reasons that we visit. She is always polite and full of beans. All the staff are great but Edie goes above and beyond, what a legend.

Maitham al jalali Ambiance: Casual, cozy dining with traditional touches and friendly chatter. Service: Attentive and knowledgeable staff, helpful with menu guidance. The food:Star dishes: Chelo kebab and tahdig showcase tender meat and crispy rice; ghorme sabzi has bright, herb-forward flavors. Highlights: Butter-saffron rice aroma, perfectly crisp Tahdig. Value: Reasonable prices for generous portions; good value on a mid-range night. Verdict: Solid, classic Persian fare with standout rice and kebabs. Tahdig and saffron butter are worth trying/ 10 stars, thanks

Aaron Giles Great food lovely staff not nice little gem of a cafe

Marcin Węsek We had extremely nice experience! Food was nice, drinks were good … on top of that we were sitting outside and weather was great, so my husband and 3 of our babies had a great time! We ordered 3 dishes between us and I was full, we are two fairly well build guys (both around 100kg) so we thought we might be hungry after just 1 dish each… nope we were wrong…. Food was delicious, presentation was great and our waiter was very helpful and friendly. He informed us about longer than usual wait (place was packed), sever drinks very fast and it was a pleasure to sit outside and enjoy sun! We found easily parking spot next to the venue. The only one thing I would recommend for owner is to make sure everyone firm staff know the menu and can describe what we can expect from products. I asked about coffee, what kind of coffee they have and what is the taste of it. They were not able to tell me in the bar. WE ARE RECOMMENDING THIS SPOT!!!
