Populairste Britse restaurants in Hartfield

I stumbled across the Dorset Arms while in the area and what caught my eye straight away was the sight of oysters on the menu, not something you expect from a traditional pub tucked away in the middle of Sussex. Naturally, curiosity (and a love of good seafood) led me in. I was genuinely impressed. The Mersey oysters were outstanding, fresh, briny, and as good as any I’ve had. In fact, I usually swear by the oysters at Smiths in Wapping, which are hard to top, but these were right up there. To start, I had the Padron peppers, which were perfectly blistered with just the right touch of salt. For my main, the flat chicken really delivered, juicy, full of flavour, and nicely glazed. If I had to nitpick, the accompanying salad could have used a little more variety, maybe some cherry tomatoes or peppers for a pop of colour and texture. The wine list was a pleasant surprise too. I started with a white that paired beautifully with the oysters, then switched to a rosé that was dangerously easy to drink. The staff were polite, the atmosphere relaxed, and the food far exceeded expectations. If you are anywhere near the area, the Dorset Arms is absolutely worth a visit, especially if you’re an oyster lover. Highly recommended.

Lovely pub and restaurant in the east sussex country side, nice atmosphere, friendly locals. Food very nice

The food is the key - really tasty. The service was a little erratic at first, but righted itself and was friendly with a heartfelt apology for a bit of a wait. Comfortable inside The Kitchen, if a little small in space, but pleasant atmosphere. All round a definite hit.

Very nice food, warm and welcoming staff. Very attentive and speedy service, couldn’t fault the place. Will certainly be returning. Good job, The Three Crowns 👍🏻

First time trying the White Hart and the Sunday roast didn't dissappoint. Portion sizes were ample and it was delicious. Service was a little slow but this wasnt an issue. Lovely atmosphere and very dog friendly. Well definitely be back again.
