I know I say this every time I visit one of the Ginger restaurants but seeing as I have now visited…read morethem all I've finally made my decision on my favourite and it's definitely got to be the Fox. It's such a lovely setting, in a beautiful old thatched house in the middle of nowhere. (Hassocks but you'd need to drive or take a taxi from the town or station). I'm hot on my mood lighting and they had it lit perfectly in here, it felt proper dreamy. The staff are so pleasant, our beautiful waitress couldn't do enough for us and spoke to us like we were old friends. Before we sat down at our table, we decided to have a drink in the big comfy seats by the bar first which settled us in nicely. They don't offer much cider wise but have some tasty draught beers. We were seated and opted for a bottle of Malbec. The starters came out quickly and looked to die for. I opted for the crispy pigs head which was delicious, set off by the langoustine that had been brushed with rosemary. Unfortunately, I found a small hair on my plate but after still demolishing the food and discreetly telling the waitress, the chef offered me a complimentary pudding. Winning. For main course I opted for the guinea fowl which was hands down one of the best dishes I've ever had the pleasure of eating. Mouth-wateringly moist (ew sorry - I hate that word but there is no other way to describe it) with shredded wing meat in a crispy breadcrumb coating which added a dynamic texture, butternut squash purée, artichoke fondants and a morel jus... WOWEEE. An excellent combination - I was distraught to finish it. I rounded off the evening with a cheeseboard - the exquisite Balcombe Blue made another appearance which I was chuffed about, finished with Irish coffee and truffles. BOOM. OUSSHHH. If only there was a stretcher and a big fluffy bed upstairs to carry me into! I think they should definitely turn it into an Inn too. Gorgeous evening, will hopefully be back VERY soon! Recommend it for birthdays and cosy celebrations.

The food was nice but not the quality i had expected. The staff were polite and helpful and well presented. The decor was just how i had imagined, however a little un-kept (rusty windows with a draft although it was closed) but i suppose that's the cottage feel! I think if i hadn't walked in with such high expectations due to friends comments i may have given 4 stars.

There's a huge garden to accommodate large groups and there's plenty of room inside the place too. The staff and owners are really friendly and can't do enough to make you feel welcome. Food wise, I can't recommend the steaks enough here. They source the meat locally and you can tell the difference in the flavour. The Sirloins are fantastic and the chef really knows how to cook it to order (you'd be surprised how many don't. Perfect place to head to on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

The Thatched Inn will always hold a little place in my heart. Aside from the great impression it…read moremakes on pulling into the car park, due to the exceptionally maintained thatched roof, it is the 'pubiness' that makes it a winner. Located on the fringes of Hassocks and overlooking a beautiful stretch of Sussex countryside (great for a post Sunday roast walk to preserve the waistline!), the pub has the advantage of space that Brighton establishments sometimes lack. You would be hard pressed not to find a parking space and the same applies to seating within. The pub provides a cozy bar including a pool table if you fancy stopping by for a swift pint, the 'Keymer' bar for a more relaxed beverage and a large, yet homely dining area if you have come to eat. I will come back to the food in a minute. In the summer, the expansive secluded garden is perfect for children to bomb about, or for those summer nights when the weather is pleasant (of course, a bit hit and miss in this country!). The menu is wide ranging (check the website for a current list of dishes) and offers traditional, quality pub food. A lot of the produce is locally sourced and cooked to order. Sometimes this does mean that you wait a little longer for your meal, but the wait is worth it in such a nice environment. This is a great pub to consider for a Sunday roast, especially if you live in Brighton and have access to a car. They will happily take bookings and also cater for private parties in the dining area. I would have liked to see a wider range of ales on tap, but they do try and keep a local brew or two in rotation. Aside from that, expect your regular range of alcoholic tipples on offer. Many moons ago, in my youth we used to walk to the Thatched from Burgess Hill for our Friday drinking sessions and I would still make that walk! I guess the one negative is the location if you are without transport, but if you do make the pilgrimage from the station, I believe you will be glad that you did.

The food is out of this world as you can expect from any of the Ginger places but when enjoyed in surroundings like this, it really is hard to beat.

The Gingerman in Norfolk Sqare is outstanding, no complaints there, Gingerman at Drakes is a little more expensive and not as good quality, Ginger Pig isn't bad but they use a microwave for some dishes, I've yet to try the newest establishment 'The Ginger Dog'

Food is OK but expensive compared to other similar venues locally - the food is the same as the other pubs in this small, local chain. Not sure this is a good thing as, surely, most people choose a venue on it's food and this takes away that choice... They do offer a Dining Club discount on food (must include a main course) of 10% - this is Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and 'a steak for a tenner' deal on Thursdays. The whole pub is undergoing refurbishment in early 2024 inside and out which is great news as it was looking a bit tired when we last visited. Better weather sees the use of the large field for parking and al-fresco dining which proves very popular, especially at weekends as the pub is located in the South Downs National Park and is just a (steep) walk from the South Downs Way.
