    Always the most popular day of the year as we take time to say thanks to our dear Mums. Enjoy our five-course set menu with a glass of champagne on arrival to make the day extra special as we take care of the roast this weekend. Please see the Mother's Day menu on our website. Payment due at pub.

    Fabulous evening at the Owl for dinner and then we joined in with really good pub quiz. Food is always good, cooked to order and staff could not be more friendly or helpful. Definitely recommend and we will be back!

    Fantastic food, service slow, for a quiet evening! Had to ask about Supper Club menu, which we then received the menu for (not mentioned before ordering) very quiet evening, Horsham advertising advised! Then charged for full menu price! However, with these little niggles, address them please, and this will be a superb place to eat.....

    We had a lovely lunch celebrating my sisters birthday. Excellent and very welcoming staff, seated us at a great table allowing for us also having a dig with us. The food was great and we look forward to returning soon. Thank you everyone.

    Our tea and coffee was brought ten minutes before our desert which spoilt the meal. Please do not bring tea and coffee order before the deserts unless requested. Tea and coffee is traditionally served in this country after a meal which seams to have been forgotten by younger waiters. They need training on how to serve meals correctly. Your disabled toilet is not being used correctly, it is being used by able bodied people who are too lazy to walk up the stairs. If you make this toilet available for everyone clean it more often and install another toilet downstairs. The disabled toilet was obstructed with high chairs, which blocked the door and made my disabled friends electric wheel chair very difficult to manoeuvre, this is dangerous and could have tipped the chair over, especially when other able bodied customers are trying to push past to get in the toilet. Disables toilets are usually locked and made available by the staff on request.

    Excellent service and ambience in recently refurbished building. My main course was slightly over cooked but other Mains were well received. Condition of Ale was fine but not great. Friendly and helpful staff and good parking facilities.
