Inns in Polegate, East Sussex

1 location found near Polegate

“We stayed at the Inn for 2 nights as we were going to the Opera at Glyndebourne. The Inn is full of history and very interesting. The landlady was friendly.
However, the pub closes too early around 9-9.30pm and we struggle to get one more drink in before bed. We felt that we were a nuisance to the bar staff that we wanted a couple more drinks before going to be (and it was barely 9.30pm).
On the second night after the Opera, we got back before 9.30pm and the staff reluctantly served as a couple of beers as she had just cleared the till but she would serve us if we paid by card.
After that we went to the George Inn up the road.

I would say, not being able to have a drink at normal pub hours has put a damper on our visit and it made it worse that we were staying at the Inn for 2 nights.

We will hopefully do the Glyndebourne thing again in a couple of years but we won’t be staying there again.

But one thing I must say the ale and food were good. If you want to try the Amarda and the Long Man larger make sure you get in early.”
