  “Not been since it's been taken over. Really impressed, switched the bar around, which has made a big difference. Garden is lovely with some nice flowers and baskets. New outdoor furniture as well. Made a huge difference. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will use it more now. 👍”

  “Went here to have some food and drinks. Having never been here before we decided to try this place. We went in to ask if they were still serving food. We were told "yes" by the lady. She handed me a menu and said "please find a table and then when you decide what you want come back and order". We went outside and found a table and then went back to the same spot I did my enquiry. For then to be told they won't take my order here and I have to go to the other bar as this is a restaurant. To me it all looks the same an old fashioned pub. A restaurant has tablecloths and napkins and dressed tables. This had none of it. Kids running around etc. just like a pub not a restaurant. Went into the other part I couldn't get to the bar as people were sitting at the bar with stools. So no ordering of food for me. The family left and we drove a few minutes down the road to the Bosham inn. I spent over £300 in the Bosham inn that could have been in the Travellers Joy's till. I guess this place doesn't need the business in this climate. Word to the owner or management you need to look at what your doing and refocus.”

  “Food absolutely brilliant, beer very good and the staff are excellent. Weve tried the afternoon and the evening and the atmosphere is a little too intense with the locals, who seem to take over. We had to walk along the fireplace to leave the pub this afternoon and the locals would not move for us. We felt we were in the way. What a shame for a lovely pub. We won't revisit again whilst we are here.”

  “Comically RUDE! For absolutely no reason at all, the bar lady was laughably rude to me and my two friends at the bar. I asked very politely how she was, but was met with a dirty look and a "what do you want" !! 3 pints came to over £20. Nothing joyful about this place!”

  “Went on a Sunday. My wife had roast beef which she said was "lush". There was plenty of roast beef and loads of gravy which she really likes. I had a ploughman's and it was massive. Had 4 sausages with it, never had that before. I was unable to finish it because of its size though I did try. Had a lovely chilli and tomato chutney with it and they even gave me some to take home after I said how nice it was. Can't fault the place. Would highly recommend.”

  “Lovely skin on chips with cheese and drinks, friendly accommodating staff and despite the place being busy they still managed to let us have a table for a short quick meal and drink. Warm and inviting and would definitely come here again for a bigger meal with the family. Dog was also fully welcome ❤️”

  “We had a lovely lunchtime meal, the quality ingredients and superbly cooked food (Fillet steak and Salmon mains, sticky toffee pudding) was a delight. Hannah was excellent on front of house, she gave us a warm welcome and was very attentive throughout. We'd eaten at The Travellers Joy several times under previous ownership and our experience under the new ownership was equally as impressive. We'll definetly be returning. Thank you for a lovely all round experience 😊”

  “My wife and I have just had an amazing lunchtime meal here. I had the steak burger and my wife had the fish pie. The pie was huge but was fantastic and very well cooked and tasty. Had to take half home it was so big. The steak burger was the best I have ever had and came with a lot of chips and Mexican Chipotle sauce. I thought it was 1,000 island so found it a bit hot for me but very nice though. The garlic cheese bread was also fantastic and a good sized portion. Washed down with a lovely refreshing large glass of Pinot Grigio wine. We have been here a few times over the years and it never disappoints.”

  “It has been a very long time since I have been in to this pub, i can imagine 8 years. And I am happy to say this is really a great pub to visit the staff were friendly, we only popped into this pub for a small basket meal and a couple of pints. When the food came of we couldn't believe the size of the portions. I am happy to say that I will be re visiting this pub in the future.”
