| Very popular 17th Century inn with lots of character and very good
ales. The feel is basic, but very friendly, with bare floorboards and sawdust. Also known
as 'the sausage pub' even though the menu says "fresh local fish a speciality" -
but there's one main reason most people visit the Sussex Brewery - the range of sausages
supplied by Bill O'Hagan Located
next to the Hampshire border the Sussex Brewery is surrounded by the magnificent
Chichester Harbour, Mill Pond and surrounding marshes. |
