Stopped in Ditchling for a few days. The Green Welly is always a destination for lunch. Great pastries and always changing salads, with a glass of French Rose~. As the temperature warms up the hanging baskets in the courtyard are starting to flower and create a lovely display. We will be back. !Thank you so much for your kind comments.It was lovely to see you again and we appreciate the detour that you make to come to the Green Welly each time you are visiting the area.

Get the bad bit out of the way first, on the three occasions in one week I came here to arrange today's lunch for ten, there was a strong whiff of disinfectant around the bar which will turn some people away immediately. However, the beer is good and the bar is a good size. The staff are friendly and welcoming and there are enough of them. The pub is clean and light and there is plenty of seating and a feeling of space in what is a pretty large floor area. We came for Christmas lunch. Half of us chose the same starter, Ham Hock. It was as big as some main courses I've been served and very tasty, served with a simple salad and pickle. Most chose either Turkey of Beef as a main, and no one was disappointed. Decent portions of well cooked meat, well cooked vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, loads of roast potatoes all cooked very well. The staff brought more potatoes and vegetables without us asking which I have not seen ever but we were all full. They laid on mulled wine and mince pies and gave coffee to those who asked at no extra charge and at no stage left us wanting for anything. 18 quid - an absolute bargain. I'd have rated them higher if it wasn't for the first thing I mentioned which I'm sure can be easily sorted. Good luck to them and thanks for a good lunch.

This is only the second time we have been here, but another great experiance. This time I had the Christmas sandwich off the festive menu and boy what a great sandwich. It came stuffed with turkey, stuffing, bacon, mayo, cranberry and all held together with a skewered pig in blanket though the sandwich. Great menu, great staff, great food.

We were going to eat at the Crossbush at Arundel where we are fairly regular visitors, but after waiting 10 minutes for a table they said that it would be another half hour before they could seat us, and then there would be a 40 minute wait for food.The Crossbush had gone down hill lately anyway so I said not to bother and we drove over to Burgess Hill instead, and how glad am I.We were seated straight away, on a table that was big enough for four, bonus!, and ordered drinks which also arrived quickly.Our server was Becky and she couldn't have been more welcoming, I had the Surf and Turf and my wife had the Sunday roast beef.The food arrived in a reasonable time and was hot and tasty. It's always a treat when a good quality piece of meat is cooked to perfection, and that was what happened today. The chips were also very good.Becky looked after us and really appeared to enjoy her work, but thanks also the the cooks, and the Crossbush for giving me the opportunity to visit a superior Beefeater.We will return soon.

Came here on Monday for a friends birthday. Food was average. Staff nice enough. Desserts were very nice. Service ok. Disappointed with salad that accompanied my Minty lamb burger. No dressing and no seasoning on new potatoes, so bit bland. Friends sirloin was chewy. Very average.

1. Cafe Asia
We are a friendly neighbourhood family-oriented cafe-restaurant serving various British and Asian fusion cuisine. The menu is always changing according to the season and customer feedback. Customers are welcome to bring their own wine and beer at any time
Reviewed By georgetheman
Cafe Asia opened a couple of months ago, replacing a previously excellent asian takeaway. The owner(s) spent significant time refurbishing the building, with a nice lick of green paint and turning it into a breakfast and lunch cafe, as well as a takeaway. We met the owner a few times who is lovely and very friendly.The menu was initially confusing; they started serving english breakfast and sandwiches, with a more asian fusion themed menu apparently to follow.We decided to visit after it had been open for a good month or so, as more asian dishes had been added to the menu.I'll start with a few positives, as I feel you need to give people their fair due:-the cafe is quite nice, with good coffee and a friendly atmosphere.-there is seating outside-free wifi-they have some interesting chinese/asian drinks that you might not get in other cafes, including cans of coconut water, various juices with jelly, almond milk etc.-the waitress was lovely and really did her best to make us feel welcomeWe wanted to get some dinner/light snack - we opted for some dumplings and a 'hong kong style pork chop with home made tomato sauce, egg fried rice and veg'.The dumplings were quite nice, albeit very salty, and a tad pricey (£4 for 4; quite a lot considering I get 8 for a fiver at Itsu)The Hong Kong style pork chop was, I'm sad to say, so awful I momentarily thought I'd landed myself in an episode of Kitchen Nightmares.Other than the fried egg rice, I could not figure out what was asian about it; the thick tomato sauce had cheese(?) on it, tasted like it should've been on a pasta dish, the broccoli that came with it inexplicably tasted fishy, and the less said about the poor chewy pig that died for this dish, the better.The waitress explained that this dish is a big hit in Hong Kong - I'm afraid there's no chance of that here.So, the bad:-the menu is confused; is it British? Is it Asian? It also doesn't help that new dishes appear as hastily printed photocopies on the window, making it look like a cheap takeaway.-Though we should try more dishes to get a full picture, the ones we tried don't instill confidence.-Drinks wise it's nice to have asian options, but sometimes you just want a simple soda, like a coke or a sprite.-no clear distinction between the lunch and dinner menus - I've walked past a few times, pondering if I'll get something, but it is unclear whether some of these dishes are 'portable'. It also tries to impress with 'different' dishes, like said Hong Kong Pork and 'egg noodle wrapped fried chicken', yet lacks some of the basic favourites. Where is the satay? Where are the duck rolls?It's a real shame, as the owner is lovely and as I live near, want them to do well.But they really need to sort their menu out, and up the cooking a level.
