Forest Row​のベストガストロパブ

Lovely lunch with my mum. Pretty pub in great location. Friendly helpful staff

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.

Great selection of food options and all our party thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Friendly and helpful staff

We were made to feel very comfortable. Even before we got there, the venue called to see if we were booked in for the Quiz - we weren't, so they sat us in a quieter area. Food was good. They didn't have the dish I'd requested, but offered alternative and didn't charge any more for it. Service was excellent, could not have been better. A really good evening.

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 👍🏻
