I had the chicken with thyme with butternut squash and carmelized onions. The chicken (leg) was perfectly seasoned with lovely roasted butternut squash and carmelized onions. Everyone in my party enjoyed their meal, and the size of the portion of fish with the fish and chips was massive. Great service and ambience. Highly recommend!

We stayed in the Wey room (room #1) which was small, but very lovely. The bed was super comfortable and covered in loads of pillows. We were provided with plenty of towels, a bathrobe and slippers. The hot drink selection was great with a variety of teas and some instant hot chocolate that was actually really nice! Free Wifi was available which is always a plus. The bathroom is pretty tiny, but nothing too unmanageable. Everything was new, clean and modern. Our hairdryer only worked for 1 minute bursts and then seemed to overheat. My partner said she could hear a bit of music from the pub below, but I couldn't hear it at all. In any case, they closed by midnight on a Saturday night which isn't at all unreasonable. We tried two cocktails. The bartender lady made one that was completely different than what we asked for, but was still quite nice. We both loved a passionfruit cocktail! The next morning we went downstairs for breakfast. There was a small amount of cold cereal and fruit on a spread, and a full and varied menu for hot food. I have celiac disease and had enquired about the dinner at the Swan before I knew that my girlfriend had booked it as our accommodation, and they were one of the only restaurants of the 10 I emailed in Arundel who responded to my request for gluten free menu items. While we did not end up having dinner here, the helpfulness continued into breakfast. Our server was very lovely and communicated with the kitchen to provide me with a gluten free fry up. They substituted sausage for more bacon, which is always appreciated! And they even had gluten free toast. I had a lovely meal! Overall, I loved the Swan Hotel. It's perhaps a bit pricey considering how small our room was, but I also understand that for a nice, boutique hotel in the middle of a touristy town, that it was probably market value. I would definitely return and recommend it to friends!

What better way to enjoy a summers evening than kick back by the river with a glass of wine or a…read morepint of the cold stuff? I've found Kingston to be a little hit-and-miss when it comes to bars and pubs but Woodys is the perfect spot for those long warm summer evenings us Londoners like to take advantage of. We visited for a friend's birthday last month as she'd spotted the pub on her jogging route and we were all smitten by its charm. Inside is a mish-mash of furniture with arm chairs, kitchen chairs, dining chairs and an old piano sitting in the corner. They even have a box of toys for the kids (although the Mr Potato Head may attract the likes of me also) so mums and dads can relax while the kiddies play. The prices were reasonable and while I hit the wine menu many of my chums opted for their cider. The food coming out of the kitchen looked tasty although we didn't eat there, and the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. The whole place has a lovely vibe and indeed, as the manager says, it feels like an extension of your living room. If you're out and about in Kingston and fancy a beverage head over to Woodys for a lovely chilled out vibe...and perhaps a bit of play time with Mr Potato Head.

Woody's is an ok bar in Kingston, its nice that its one of the last of the independents, but there…read moreis a number of things wrong that serious deride from the experience. The entire bar decor could be described as shaby sheik run amok. The crowd is an odd crossbreed of hipsters and wanna be yacht club members (60+). Its not a great place to go and have to good of a time, you might disturb the status quo. Its obviously the victim of wanna be middle class gentrification, and also don't go hungry, you won't find more than a bag of crisps. The location is great, and at least they have a clean toilet. Don't disturb the blonde bald dragon (barkeep) and keep to the status quo (tightpants and bangs over your eyes) and you might just fit in nicely at Woody's.

Nava decided to bring us here when we were visiting her in Horsham. She raved about this cocktail…read morebar that had won some sort of contest and was showcasing during cocktail week in London (or something like that). So after dinner, we decided to check it out and try a few drinks. She had booked a table, so it wasn't a problem getting in. The table was all marked out for us with a balloon that had her name, our party size and the time. It was a cute way of marking the tables, and it went with the quirky atmosphere of the bar. Quirky? Yes, the bar is quite quirky, pretty much a hipster bastion in Horsham. Balloons? Check. A giant chessboard on the ceiling? Double check. The bathrooms being called the "garden". Oh yes. That being said, the cocktails were interesting and tasty. My partner ordered the "Glastonbooty" that was served in a ceramic boot and had an "absinthe balloon" which turned out to just be a balloon that they sprayed with absinthe. So not so exciting. Plus he said it kind of tasted like dirt. Which may have been the point. I had the "Only Mules and Horses" which came with a photo of Dell Boy and Rodney on the side. For the next round, my partner ordered a Negroni, and it was pretty bitter, even for a Negroni. I just tried shots of their Chai Bourbon and Maple Tequila. The tequila was quite sweet, but nice, but they Chai Bourbon really won me over. So yeah, it's a fun, hipster joint in Horsham. If you're in Horsham, it means it's probably the best place to go.

I'm so happy there is finally a nice cocktail bar in Horsham! It is easy to book a table and I'd…read morerecommend so especially over the weekend as it was really busy. The place is split over two floors. Ground floor with a few bar stools and big bar and then upstairs where there is much more space for large groups round small tables and again a large bar. The decor is cool and as the name hints there is a little bit of quirky taxidermy going on along with a giant chessboard on the ceiling. You receive table service which is good however I think my only gripe is the service was a little slow to begin with and the cocktails take a while to come. The cocktail menu is awesome with lots of different cocktails available to suit all palates and are served it lots of different ways - in a beer can with a sombrero hat or in a tankard orrrr in a pretty dainty cocktail glass. I'm not sure how often they change the menu but I recommend La Vida Loco & Only Mules & Horses.

I experienced extreme harassment from the door staff at this venue. I ordered my friend an uber…read morehome since he was sick, the door staff kept insulting me, repeatedly saying he would "die of hypothermia" because I didn't take him fully home, despite waiting until his transport arrives as i had to get home myself. Their tone was aggressive, intimidating, and completely unprofessional. They then banned me from the club for no valid reason. As a young female I felt intimidated and I had to walk away and wait for my transport somewhere else as the insults wouldn't stop and they kept calling me a horrible friend, a disgusting person etc... It was around 3am and i should've felt safe waiting next to the venue however it was the exact opposite. The incel security team seems to be on a power trip, making excuses to harass women instead of acting professionally, not to mention my friend got home okay and he is disgusted with how they treated me.

Avoid at all costs…read more I wish to complain, in the strongest possible terms, about the shockingly rude and disgraceful customer service I recently had the misfortune of enduring on a night out at The Edge. I'll set the scene; I was with a group of friends celebrating a birthday, where the birthday girl understandably wanted to visit you as a fixture of the gay scene in Southampton. We agreed - the Edge has an excellent reputation. However, the treatment I and several other members of the birthday party we endured is, frankly, completely unacceptable. The door staff you employ, or contract, are disgustingly rude. Unaware that a picture ID system was in place (I've not been to a club since Covid), I was unaware that I needed to bring a form of photo ID with me. Fair enough - I was happy to show the woman at the door a copy of my credit card and my Facebook profile picture as proof that I am who I say I am. However, the manner and way in which she proceeded to extremely patronisingly demand "well why don't you have any photo ID", visibly sighing and rather dismissively inferring that I was stupid for not knowing this. Rather than politely saying "oh that's ok, we can use Facebook and a credit card" or words to that effect, she essentially demanding that I needed photo ID and that " as your [The Edge's] photo-ID systems had been installed for four years" and that I should "get with the times". As if my mere presence insulted her and that I, single-handedly, was making her job ten times harder than it needed be. Then visibly annoyed while waiting for me to sign in to Facebook and provide evidence of my ID, she snatched my credit card away from me and presented it to the man at the responsible for entering ID systems, saying that I should apologise to her for holding the queue up. By this point I had decided that if this was representative of the "service" at your establishment that I was not comfortable patronising your bar, and that I wanted to leave. I then requested my credit card back from the man at the door, at which point I overheard her say words to the effect of "are you being serious? That's a f***ing waste of time". As if patrons, your valued customers, are little more than cattle to be herded, with no regard for either my safety, or the feelings of your clients. Extreme words, perhaps, but that's honestly the feeling I got from her. The door staff member in question is what I would describe as an older lady, with peroxide blonde or very light brown hair, working in a black T-shirt that says "security". Because I just wanted to get out of there I didn't get her name, unfortunately, but she was working around 11:30 pm on Saturday 12th September. While I understand that being door staff is hardly rocket science, I nevertheless expect a certain level of professionalism and modicum of both decency and respect as a possible customer at your bar - she is 'security', but I hardly felt 'secure' with her. My entire experience, and in particular the abysmal and deeply offensive level of service provided by the member of staff in question is, frankly, disgusting, and completely unacceptable. This whole unfortunate experience has completely ruined a perfectly good night out, and I am still, over an hour later, visibly shaken (and, indeed, shaking). If this is standard of customer "service" I can expect from The Edge, it paints what I am sorry to say is a level of service far below that which can be reasonably expected from one of Southampton's premiere LGBT+ clubs. What a disgusting end to a great night out.
