Quick info
About The Bolney Stage
On London Rd in Haywards Heath, The Bolney Stage is a half-timbered pub serving home-cooked British food, with fireplaces inside and a beer garden. The kitchen's range runs from pan seared scallops and chicken liver pâté to a fillet steak sandwich and an 8oz bacon chop, with roasted tomato and red pepper soup and a honey glazed pear tart also on the menu. Roast beef is a recurring choice, and a Light Bites section sits alongside an extensive dessert menu. Seating extends to outdoor terraces and gardens beyond the main room. It opens daily and takes walk-ins rather than bookings, with table service and staff checking in during the meal. A car park sits on site, though it is not large.

“Beautiful pub and outdoor terraces with comfy seating. Parking is easy and great location just off the A23. Gardens were peaceful. Staff are delightful and the menu is fantastic with lots of options, something for everyone. The food was fresh, tasty and well presented. Service was in a timely manner. The young man who served us helped with wine and menu choices and provided excellent customer service. He checked in with every course to ensure all was well. Wine and water were chilled perfectly. We had a lovely lunch and will be back.”

“Popped in randomly and absolutely loved this gorgeous pub in Sussex countryside. Menu was amazing and we couldn’t decide what to eat as everything sounded great. We ate from Light Bites and everything was seasoned well. Great fries! And the dessert menu was also extensive and so lovely. Service was also amazing.”
