Exceptional, everywhere
For those seeking fine dining, Sussex is home to mouthwatering Michelin guide restaurants that provide unforgettable culinary experiences, including The Dining Room at Gravetye Manor, awarded One Michelin Star. Looking for a more laid back affair? Family-friendly pubs and farm-to-fork restaurants abound. Why not enjoy a traditional British menu at the historic George in Rye, or try local produce in Goodwood at Farmer, Butcher, Chef?
From land and sea
In the South Downs, you'll find fantastic vineyards offering a place to dine with wine. Restaurant Interlude at Leonardslee is renowned for its innovative tasting menus. Or head to Chalk at Wiston Estate or Rows & Vine at Ridgeview, each serving seasonal plates perfectly paired with their own sparkling wines.
After enjoying produce from the land, savour flavours from the sea. Destinations like Eastbourne and Hastings are the perfect places for seafood, where restaurants like Webbe's Rock-a-Nore celebrate locally-caught fish and shellfish. Selsey crab is also famous in these parts and is served in many local restaurants during the summer.
Flavours of the world
