The Green Man - (Near East Sussex, london)

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!

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

George Anderson Excellent pub, great British food done well. Great pint of Harvey’s and wonderful atmosphere. Exactly what was needed after a day walking in the South Downs. Was only in the area for a couple days but would make effort to revisit in the future.

Damey8679 Went for a few drinks in the bar area which was a lovely atmosphere, very cosy. Then we went and sat in the restaurant area for food. We know Cheffie from the Farmers, so knew the food would be amazing and he didnt disappoint. The pork belly with dauphinoise potatoes on the specials was incredible. Starters and desserts were delicious also. In addition the staff were so lovely and friendly and made us feel so welcome. Shout out to Lucy. Will definitely be going back soon.
