Nick Case We had an absolutely brilliant meal here. The service was incredibly helpful and attentive with all aspects of the menu. We had 2 starters, 2 mains, 1 rice and 1 naan and left very satisfied and full. All was cooked very well and the flavours were delicious. Update 2024: Chaulas is incredible. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly on what is vegan and what isnt. All the food is cooked in sunflower oil, not ghee so the choice is very good. Completely separate vegetarian sections on the menu, and not just the usual 5-8 curries you get, some very interesting options. The curries all tasted fresh and left us full but not over-full. The roti and paratha were also excellent. Overall, this is probably the best Indian Ive visited in years. There was a great selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes, all labelled on the menu, and the staff were very helpful with any questions we had about the cooking of the dishes. Couldnt recommend more for a lovely meal!

David K Fantastic! Love the friendliness and warm welcome of the staff. The service is excellent. The food is superb and has some modern alternate dishes as well as the traditional ols school Indian dishes. The restaurant itself is modern and classy. Highly recommend.

Jack & Jess Brivio The best wedding food ever! We are so glad we booked The Secret Restaurant for our wedding. So many guests have said it was the best wedding food they have ever had (we agree!) The food really was amazing and we loved the sharing concept so people can help themselves, it felt so relaxed and the food was perfect for a summer wedding. The portions were generous too which is important at weddings as people are there for such a long period of time so it was nice that everyone was so well fed. The team were all great on the day too. Nicola was so helpful on the lead up always quick at responding to emails, and our food tasting day was such a lovely experience. Thank you again!

MADDOGLEP I think this must be fairly new as I have no recollection of this pub / restaurant. Thomas Paine has strong local connections, unlike Casta and Madge. He helped inspire the American revolutionary war and almost lost his head in the French one. Silly so and so. I had another Harveys Sussex best bitter. One of three real ales on my visit. Very good. Up steep stairs finds a roof terrace. Must be lovely on a warm sunny day / evening. Free wifi.

Mahesha Rice We had a wonderful brunch at Riverside Cafe Bar and absolutely loved it! Both kids and adults were really happy with the food... there’s such a great variety of options to choose from. The smoothies were incredible, so fresh and delicious. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the view of the river from the windows made it even more special. A lovely place to relax and enjoy good food. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Linda Mears This is a quirky little pub. So much to feast your eyes on inside! Food is very good, service and atmosphere is first class. The Snowdrop is only open from Thursday to Sunday. Check their website before visiting. But it is certainly worth a visit.
