The Middle House Pub Reviews

Great new brasserie with views over the weald
Great food. Wonderful old buildimg

Been many times now, always a favourite. Beautiful view looking over a valley and great food.

Lovely evening spent with friends enjoying good food.

Family regular haunt of ours for years. From Christmas times to a recent birthday of mine. Never disappointed.

Wow ! I took my Mum here for cream tea for 2 . All i can say is how lovely it was . Perfect 2 hours. Well recommended. Thank you :)

We have eaten here most weeks for the last 2 years and have never had a bad meal or a complaint, couldn't recommend highly enough.

This is by far the best hotel in the area, and for miles around. This is a bucket list hotel. Mist do

Fantastic. Loved it! Would go back every week! Top top food and service

Good food, fairly friendly staff although service often a little slow (often quite busy)

The best meal we've had for a long time. A lovely restaurant fabulous staff .were ever you have to travel from it will be well worth the journey.

Amazing historic pub from 1500s, great dining area and wonderful food.

Lovely hotel and restaurant. Excellent service and food. Beautiful well kept historic Village.

The Middle House is back in action! The set up was fantastic, felt very safe and the food was top notch as usual. We'll done everyone, already looking forward to our next visit.

I have eaten at the Middle House three times now and must say the service and food and beer is excellent.
Great Menu ,good size meals but more importantly really fresh and tasty food. Probably the best pub food in Sussex .
ps lovely old building in a real old fashioned high street. Worth a visit on its own. .

Nice couple of Beers after work with my son, love the Middle House, I met his Mum in there 40 years ago.

Lovely foo & lovely staff. Will definitely be eating here again.

Both the original and the newer part are beautiful and it was a joy to eat here. The Christmas dinner was one of the best I've ever had, the service was prompt, and I look forward to another meal there

Great atmosphere, friendly efficient staff, and excellent food. We'll definitely be back. Thank you.

Absolutely gorgeous pub with a delightful garden that enjoys lovely views.
The staff are extremely efficient and all covid-19 procedures are being carried.

My favourite pub and restaurant in Sussex (I ve been to a lot!)

Pure bliss, on a scale of 10, on atmosphere, food, surroundings.
We have been here before, usually few times a year, we love the food, choice.
We never get disappointed, you can tell the chefs put passion into the food.
Deserts get a thumbs up, all cooked from scratch.

Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food.
Mayfield is charming.

Lovely old Inn/Hotel. Quirky crooked floor and walls. Great service.

Amazing food, great atmosphere, lovely fireplace, warm and cosy.

Stunning setting, great food. Not cheap.but you get what you pay for.
So good I almost want to keep it to myself.

Omg the food is unbelievable!! We have just eaten there and the service exelant and the food was ..... amazing. I can't compliment it highly enough.

Nice old country pub, good food and beer, friendly staff

Great pub, great food and great service. Been going for years and never had a bad experience.

Traditional pub that serves traditional pub food to a better than average standard. I had a steak and mushroom pie, which was excellent. Packed full of juicy, tender steak in a rich sauce; the only surprise was the lack of mushrooms!

Great food, very large pub, excellent mid walk refreshment!

The best Sunday Roast Ever! We had butternut squash soup for starters- creamy and smooth. The lamb was the highlight of the visit, it was perfectly cooked to medium, and was melting in my mouth- that was truly best lamb I ever had... Similar only would be at Raymond Blanc's 4 Season restaurant in Oxford so far. Lovely place to stay for a long cosy evening in the winter with those huge fireplaces. Nice selection of spirits and welcoming staff.

Excellent food ,beer and surroundings. Staff also very good.Go there!!

Vegans catered for by the chef. The chef's name must have been Steve because we didn't want to leave. New Zealand vibes. Delicious staff, Friendly soup. Stars galore. Sweet mother Kelly!

Had food in the bar area. Delicious menu and lovely interior with large log fire

A lovely spot for Sunday lunch. The roast dinner and puddings are really good! Also excellent service in a very pleasant and civilised setting.

Been a customer for years. Now live in France, cant get much better there.
Only the best ingredients used.

What a fantastic place to go for a special meal great menu and atmosphere.

Come here on special occasions, food is always amazing! Never been disappointed, staff are polite and friendly! Area at back is very spacious! Love the new layout! Only downside would be on certain things can be slightly pricey!

Superb Sunday lunch. Excellent service. Friendly staff

Food is very varied and cooked to a good standard. Good sized garden for those with dogs and a kids play area (restricted due to covid). It's located in a prominent part the village which is very scenic and time set.

Didn t stay in the hotel, but did go to the pub. It is nice and cosy and good if you want a quick drink. Didn t eat there, so I can t comment on that.

Small family group for a birthday lunch. Friendly staff. Food was well cooked and tasty but not very hot when served.

If you appreciate great food, a good wine selection and real ales you will love The Middle House located in the lovely historic village of Mayfield.

Excellent food and great service, highly recommended

Fantastic locally sourced menu. I had the black pudding scotch egg (perfectly cooked, beautiful presentation) and the pork belly, which came with a superbly crisp piece of pork crackling and several vegetable elements. I thought the portion of the main meal might have been slightly too large (though I did finish it) but this might have been just me.

The middle house has a nice atmosphere and has very good beers/ales on tap. I have been there for many years and not had a bad experience yet!

Great food and a great gluten free selection staff very attentive to your needs and very willing to accommodate

Exceptional food and brilliant staff. We have been going to The Middle House for years and it never fails to impress us.

Friendly and knowledgable staff, great range of food and very accomodating of vegetarians and vegans. Best service we've had. If we lived closer, I'm sure this would become our regular family gathering gathering place. 5 stars

Outstanding Sunday roast, one the best I've ever had out, though the gravy could have been made from a beef base instead of poultry. The beef was so local that the farmer was enjoying a pint on the next table. He was able to tell me the age, breed, pasture of the beast. I'll bet he could have told me its name. (Harry, apparently!)

The beer is fresh, also local, served by a right character behind the bar, who I presume is also local! Everything was decently priced, which made for an all round fantastic time.

Thank you!

The Middle House has an unusual atmosphere, with the very old fashioned inside area and the much more contemporary conservatory area, and I like it!
We had a little mix up when my other half ordered the vegetarian roast and she wasn't told they have the choice of a nut roast or plate of vegetables and she was give the latter when she wanted the former. The waitress apologised and ordered a nut roast to add to the veg.
I had the vegan 'fish' and chips, made out of banana blossom and it was delicious. Highly recommend.

They only missed out on 5 stars by a hair for me. Slightly more consistent service and they would have had it. Still, I'd recommend giving this place a a try.

Great food, old part of pub great unfortunately we were sat in modern bit which doesn't fit with the rest

One of the best pubs I have ever been to. Try lamb shank. Also try going there on a Sunday, great variety of roast meat for a mean Sunday roast! Love the garden, love the inside, love everything about it!!!

Great food with a lovely, cosy ambience. Can't wait to go to the new Conservatory!

Had a wonderful afternoon tea in the sun. Service was impeccable, as was the food. If only the wasps had taken a day off.

Really good food and great service. Portions are generous so go with an appetite. Would recommend their fillet steak - the meat is outstanding.

Perfect for a special occasion. Staff friendly and attentive. Food superb. Ate in the old restaurant. Looked around the new extension looks lovely and will try in there next time

Nice afternoon tea. Amazing scones. Could of done with a bit more jam though. Chocolate fondants were also delicious. Other desserts were so so. Egg and cress sandwiches were really nice. Mozzarella and pesto sandwiches a bit plain. Nice atmosphere and views plus great selection of teas.

Well worth stopping by for a meal - exceptional service and food
