The main course was delicious and food was very fresh. From previous experiences at this Carvery, I know it can be a little bit dry or stale on weekdays when it's less busy but on this Sunday, The beef, cauliflower cheese, sausages, potatoes etc were very good, but particularly the gammon!
The rocky road sundae I thought was a bit mid. I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure the portion size used to be larger, and this time, it was very creamy.
The waiter also seemed a bit unsure as to where to seat us, despite booking the table in advance. After a bit of confusion on the way to the table, we were placed at a table still in need of a wipe down. Service from here on out was great.
Beyond this, table behind was a bit noisy (forgivable, particularly on a weekend) and my knife was a little dull. But for the price, the food was great value and I will go again.
Wow what an experience! Quick service, cheap pints and half price pizzas on Tuesday! Why would you go anywhere else if you are in the Brighton area. Thanks to Sophie and Lena for the quick service and Johnathan for the perfectly poured pints!
Got a Too good to go box! Worth it.
Great portion size and tasty meal.
Staff were polite and helpful. Quick and easy pickup. Would definitely visit again.
Had a wonderful carvery, as usual, today and a member of our group had a beautiful fish and chips. All very tasty, and I firmly believe the best roast meat I have ever had at a carvery. We don't live local but when we are near always fit in lunch here. Kayleigh is the jewel in the crown and the young man serving our carvery today was great (sorry didn't get his name). The atmosphere is friendly as are the staff. Will look forward to my next visit soon.
Had a positive experience! Nice food, at that price couldn’t go wrong. We hadn’t booked but our server, think her name was Sophie? Said it was fine and showed us to our table and cleaned it all down for us. It always makes it a great experience when your server is nice and helpful like Sophie was. Nothing was a problem for her despite our demands and fussy children and we are grateful for her understanding and patience
We visited the Sportsman on Saturday afternoon for both food and drinks.
The staff were excellent, really friendly and helpful. The standard of the food, both the carvery and other food items was very good indeed and the drinks were top quality too.
The pub/restaurant has a nice feel to it and we are already looking forward to returning this Saturday.
One of the best parts of the whole experience was the absolutely fantastic price, such amazing value for both food and drinks 👍
The staff were all very friendly, the food was deliciously and the service was very helpful.
The staff kindly put our party into a private room so luckily we have even more room to spread out on!! The only thing you could improved on is the carpet in the room could have been swept and tables wiped down.
Lovely hot food, great service from the lovely lady called Sophie. Very helpful and friendly. Not been here before but will look forward to returning soon!

We ordered Traditional Carvery and I rate them 5 ⭐️. The beef; gammon and Turkey were freshly roasted. And unlimited vegetables to pair with! The only downside is that the restaurant/pub interior. Needs to be redecorated?! But otherwise, the service and the staff were great!
Craving a Sunday roast after a long drive back to Brighton, we arrived later than ideal to find that the carvery had stopped serving. Sean who served us at the bar very kindly sorted us out some food and drinks and made us feel very welcome. A real gent who deserves top marks for customer service and going that extra mile.
Really great carvery, brilliant food and service. Our waitress Sophie was so friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed. She is a real asset to the Stonehouse team and management are really lucky to have such enthusiastic staff members.
Reasonably priced and a good atmosphere. Would return.
Great pub. Nice staff and good food. Very dog friendly and both drinks and food are good value. Top-tip….download the app, there’s some very good deals.
Food is good value for money and if you get the app the kids eat for£1. The stand out for us was the waitress, what a lovely young lady, she couldn’t do enough for us. Alison was her name. Give that girl a pay raise. Thanks for having us and down to Alison we will 100% be back and recommend the sportsman.
Really nice staff. Tom and Freya were really accommodating and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. All sports on good value and good service
Lovely good pub restaurant to have a Sunday carvery. The staff are really friendly and helpful. My son particularly likes the bottomless ice cream.
