“Run by the Med restaurant team from neighbouring Brighton, the kitchen brings a cheffy élan to its roast chicken (brined for prime juiciness), or pork (dry-aged to create super-crispy, aerated crackling). Next-level trimmings include grilled hispi cabbage.

“Laine Brew Co. beers star at the bar (try its Sonar IPA), alongside ales from many of the best Sussex craft breweries. Roasts from £15.”

The pub placed fourth below The White Horse in Churton, The Culpeper in London and Balloo House, Killinchy, Northern Ireland.
