  “Me and my husband came for dinner about a week ago and we had the specials (The lamb and the linguine). The food was of a really high standard. Previously, before the new ownership, we were very disappointed by the food. We were also very pleased to hear the ice creams were all made in house. Alongside this the service was excellent and very attentive. It’s nice to know that our local pub is serving proper restaurant quality food. We will definitely be coming back.”

  “Fabulous lunch at Hangleton Manor. Delicious food and great service by Zoe and the team. Lovely calm atmosphere. I would highly recommend… I throughly enjoy my sea bass and my friend the cauliflower steak main course. The chefs really know how to cook a delicious meal. The homemade fudge was divine. !”

  “Very mediocre, The service is excellent and the staff are lovely but the seating is really uncomfortable. The dining room doesn’t allow for people to walk past you easily and the accessible toilet is down one step which is hardly accessible., They give lip service to being inclusive, possibly this is great great if you want to run in of the mill Sunday lunch but it isn’t anything special. I think it’s overpriced for what it is, The people in my group said their food was good but not wonderful. No one raved about the desert they were complaints about the carrots being too hard and my salad was nothing special. For the price they could do better I was totally underwhelmed”

  “We visited Hangleton Manor last week when the sun was scorching - it was wonderful to sit out on the garden in the fresh air under the shade of a large umbrella. The service was fantastic - friendly and efficient, and the food was fabulous. I had the butternut squash salad with feta cheese which was light and delicious - perfect for a hot summers day. My husband had the fish and chips which was tender and flaky with a tasty, crispy beer batter. For desert we couldn’t resist trying some of the home-made ice cream …. I had 1 scoop each of whiskey marmalade and chocolate brownie and my husband had 1 scoop each of chocolate brownie and mango sorbet. The ice creams were all absolutely divine - we couldn’t choose a favourite! Highly recommended! We will be back!”

  “Absolutely appalling experience – by far the worst pub experience I’ve ever had. We visited with our children and the manager’s behaviour was completely unacceptable. He shouted directly in my 4-year-old’s face over the fact they were eating sweets, which was intimidating, unnecessary and left us all shocked. We were then told to leave because we had brought sweets into the pub garden. We accepted that it was their policy, but the way it was handled was unbelievably aggressive and unprofessional. We simply asked if we could finish the drinks we had already paid for before leaving, but instead the police were called. As a parent, I have never felt so uncomfortable or unwelcome in a family pub. There are far better places where staff know how to speak to adults and, more importantly, how to treat children with kindness and respect. If you’re thinking of visiting with your family, I would strongly recommend avoiding this place. No child should be shouted at by a manager over something as trivial as eating sweets, and no family should be treated the way we were. We certainly won’t be returning.”

  “I’m a local and have many fond memories of this pub growing up. In recent years, I’ve enjoyed bringing my own family here too, so it’s disappointing to be leaving this review. Yesterday, I witnessed the staff treat another family in a way that I found completely unacceptable. Without any warning or polite conversation, they very aggressively told off the children, who looked to be around five years old, before getting into an argument with the parents. From what I could gather, the issue was that the children were eating sweets that hadn’t been purchased from the pub. However, the pub doesn’t sell sweets, and I could clearly see that the family had bought plenty of drinks. The children were playing happily with my own children, were well behaved, and weren’t causing any disturbance. Nothing I witnessed justified the rude and confrontational way the staff approached them. Sadly, the staff have often come across as unfriendly and miserable, but I’ve continued to visit because I enjoy spending time in the garden with my family. After witnessing how this family was treated, I won’t be returning. Judging by the conversations I had afterwards, many other customers who witnessed the incident felt exactly the same. It’s such a shame to see a pub that has been part of the local community for so many years decline in this way.”

  “Always feel very welcome, the food and drinks are good. Really nice staff, the owner always says hello. My dog loves going as there is treats for him and all the staff say hello to him. I also like the decorations in the pub. Brilliant garden!”

  “I was down in Brighton and Hove for the weekend and we went for Sunday dinner at Hangleton Manor and it was fantastic, The food was incredible, You can tell the chefs take pride in what they make. All the staff were lovely and we were seated right away, And a special mention to Elizabeth who went above and beyond and made our dining experience that little bit more special. The pub itself is lovely, It had a great atmosphere but wasn't rowdy a perfect mix. It also had a lovely outside area in which we stayed to sit in the sun and finish our drinks. On the whole our dining experience at Hangleton Manor was overwhelmingly positive, and i would like to give all the chefs and the staff a huge thank you for making it such a pleasant time. I will certainly be back in the future, I may need to move to Hove just to have that Pork belly every week.”

  “First time here since it has had new management, for a Sunday roast, and it did not disappoint the staff were amazing and the food was exceptional. I can’t wait to see this place busy again I would definitely recommend to any one. I’m very jealous of how the chef made the gravy it was delicious!!”

  “We’d heard a new head chef joined Hangleton Manor last week and were keen to try it for ourselves—so we booked in for a Sunday roast. I’m delighted to say it exceeded all expectations. The food was outstanding. I chose the beef while my husband had the pork belly, and both dishes were cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, the potatoes beautifully crisp, and the meat tender and full of flavour—everything you hope for in a top-quality roast. Despite being more than satisfied, we couldn’t resist sharing a cheesecake for dessert, and it was the perfect finish: perfectly balanced, creamy, and not overly sweet. The service was equally impressive—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming throughout. It made for a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxed afternoon. A fantastic experience from start to finish—we’ll definitely be back.”
