The Green Man Pub in Mid Sussex

Great pub , friendly staff and great proper food ,I always pop in if I'm local

We decided to try the green man for a Sunday lunch yesterday, as I’m vegan was unsure if the menu could cater, but the staff checked all foods ordered with the chef. I had the nut wellington roast, which to be honest, was amazing, the filling was rich, moist and very substantial, whilst the pastry was still crisp and light, even my husband tried it and finished what I couldn’t eat. They didn’t cater for vegan desserts, but after the dinner there was no room anyway. Would certainly recommend the food here. The staff were lovely and friendly and very helpful.

Lovely food always served with a smile , would recommend to all

First off, Horsted Keynes village is a good half mile from (and some way above) the station on the Bluebell Railway. Off the beaten track and just far enough from the station to work up an appetite! There is a daytime bus, but frequent, it's not.We visited (by car) on a Monday lunch time.This is a nice village pub, fairly quiet when we visited. With friendly staff and very good food. Music was being played (a Springsteen album, if I'm not mistaken), though quiet and not in the least intrusive.Food is served between noon and 2:30pm and again between 6 and 9pmThree real ales (session, strong, falling over) were on offer, though we stuck with a pot of tea.Dogs with well behaved owners are welcome.There's parking for around a dozen cars, but road parking looked not to be a problem.On a fine day, the outdoor seating (on the lawn in front of the pub) is a good option. Although on the road through the village (if it's even a "B road", it's not a busy one), Horsted Keynes is pretty quiet and most of the time, what you hear is birdsong. Inside the pub, there are no steps to 'the facilities', which were clean and well presented.My friend opted for a burger and chips (under £12) ... which just doesn't do justice to what arrived. The burger was home made, large and succulent, with a couple of rashers of decent back bacon. First rate and the chips were of a quality not seen for many moons. The meal served with coleslaw.I went for sea bass (just under £16), a decent properly cooked fillet (too many places overcook fish ... not here), served on top of a tasty risotto with a generous number of juicy king prawns. All served piping hot and made for a very nice meal indeed.Given how good the main courses were, I just had to try the apple and blackberry pie, served with custard (also offered were ice cream or cream ... tempted!) and worth the guilt.Several were eating and it has to be said the fish and chips and chicken salad looked every bit as good as our choice.I'm looking forward to visiting again. There's a lot of menu to be sampled!

Went here last Monday afternoonabsolutely lovely food at a very reasonable pricehad the burger & chips home made burger & real chunky chips, my mate had the fish which he thoroughly enjoyedStaff are very friendly with a warm atmosphereif I'm in the area again I'll definitely be going back for seconds5*

Great traditional pub. We had veggie roasts and lamb roast and scampi and chips, all good sized portions. Very dog friendly. Friendly welcome and service from the staff. Thanks.

Great pub. Excellent food, great choice of beer. Good value.

Lovely stop for lunch and a pint. Dog friendly and easy free parking. Would recommend!

Lovely food! My wife and I had the chicken and bacon pie with mash, which was delicious, and our friend had a sandwich which when it arrived was really a full meal! Highly recommended!

A good welcome from friendly staff and excellent food with generous portions. We will definately return. This pub is easily accessible from lots of footpaths so great for a mid walk break.
