"This is one of our favourite places to eat. The family booked a table for of us. All the staff greeted us when we went inside. The restaurant is light and welcoming and makes you feel at home. The ambiance is just perfect and...the service excellent. Food is wonderful. Have been before end never been disappointed. We love it. Our server was Andrea and she has always been happy, smiling and very professional. Nothing is too much trouble. She is a credit to her profession! Thank you! Jill and Nigel Meeres Bexhill"

"beautiful gastro-pub, beautiful decor, friendly staff in a country location. my only negatiw is that the acoustic is not great, so it is one of those places that can feel very loud when it is full. many beautiful seats in the open. on the really positive eating was innovatiw and absolutely delicious, and there was a good weinlist with some beautiful local weeps, of which there are many possibilities in the opposite would definitely recommend."

"This is a hidden gem! Gorgeous fine dining set up in a relaxed atmosphere, rural location so best to take a cab if, like us, you want to sample more than one of the extensive wines on the list! They do have parking too. The biodynamic Gruner we had was amazing! The service was perfect, I didn’t catch the name of the gentlemen who looked after us (on Thursday 8 July in the evening) but he made our evening pretty special, talking us through wines (and offering tastings) and generally being attentive throughout. The dining experience was relaxed just how we like it! We ordered a few small plates, then a few more, followed by the most delicious cheese board and a little extra sweet walnut treat was presented to mark our anniversary very sweet! Overall good value for excellent modern British and European food and service, we will be back!"

"We are so lucky to have such a fantastic Indian restaurant in our village. Had a take out (due to covid) to celebrate my birthday. Jay the team went that extra mile -as always- by opening up especially for me at lunchtime on a Sunday. Delicious and thoroughly enjoyed by my Mum Husband too. When restaurants are allowed to open again it is well worth visiting for a sit down too."

"Found the Woodcock whilst searching the area for last minute Sunday lunch. Phoned to book and a lovely helpful girl called Rachael booked us a table. I explained we had 2 elderly (one was recently 100! ladies and we were accommodated near the door with easy access. I had a lovely pint of Long blonde ale and the ladies had a nice wine and local gin tonic. Rachael helpfully explained that the children’s roast would suffice for the older ladies smaller appetites and she was right! I’ve seen smaller main roasts! My sister had roast Turkey and I opted for the mixed roast and WOW! No less than 3 slices EACH of pork, Turkey and beef..with beautiful garlic roasted potatoes, loads of fresh veg, cauliflower cheese, crackling, stuffing, pigs in blankets and tons of gravy! All topped by the biggest Yorkie I’ve ever seen! All high quality produce and I gather locally sourced. We were all eventually beaten by the quantity and what we couldn’t eat the staff helpfully boxed up to take away. Only able to share one sticky toffee with custard and an ice cream after that but they were also excellent. The bill for 4 of us, 4 lunches, 2 desserts and 6 drinks came to only £27 per head too! The pub has been restored beautifully, the garden is sheltered and sunny with beautiful flowers and the whole place was lovely, atmospheric and welcoming. Rachael and the rest of the staff were fabulous and the landlady came over for a nice chat gave our 100 year old lady a nice bunch of flowers to take away. It made her day All in all a simply splendid visit and we will be back for sure"
