The Star & Garter

At the end of the second leg of our walk along the South Downs Way, twenty-six miles behind us and down to a half a bottle each of water, we reached our pick-up point and demanded a beer and a bite! Harry welcomed us with old school grandeur and a smile as he poured pints and showed us the menu. The meal and the atmosphere was first class. Our next section of the walk, probably Spring 2024, will end in Amberley, but we'll be tempted to celebrate back at the S & G! Thanks Harry, you're a prince among pub landlords! ... Pete & Luke

I'm fortunate enough to stay at the Star & Garter during one of the annual Goodwood events and, frankly, would not wish to stay anywhere else! From the moment we pull up outside, Jim and the team welcome us like old friends and from that point on we are treated as such. The accommodation is always spotless and can be reconfigured to suit - doubles, singles, extra beds for children, etcetera. The menu choice in the bar is always varied and I always leave wishing I could have fitted in more of the options available (have never had anything but a superb meal at the Star!) If you're looking for somewhere to stay in a beautifully scenic, South Downs country pub which is convenient for Goodwood, Chichester, Petworth, the Witterings, et al, do try the S&G.

Had the best breakfast we’ve had in years at this fab pub this morning for a birthday treat. We had the Star full English each and a Bloody Mary each…. It was gorgeous. You can tell all the ingredients were local and really good quality. The girl that served us was very attentive and very friendly. Highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back. Thanks for looking after us. 👏❤️

What an absolute gem of a pub! Wonderful food, impeccable service and so much appreciation from the staff for our visit. Was refreshing to be in receipt of a service where you were guided through the menu recommendations from starters to pudding, the complimentary homemade focaccia was a wonderful touch, and our meals were delicious. Chicken Milanese & the recommended Tubby Mac were our meals of choice, and would recommend in a heartbeat, generous portions and know to leave room next time for pudding! See you guys soon!

We had a wonderful meal here a few weeks ago. We had 4 adults, a newborn in a pram and a dog and they were so helpful finding us a table where we'd be comfortable but not in anyone's way. We went on a Sunday for a roast and the veggie option had nuts in it - unfortunately the veggie in our group also has a nut allergy but again they immediately organised a nut free nut roast for her which she tells me was excellent. Service was great, food was delightful and I particularly liked the way the manager spoke to his staff. The camaraderie in the team was evident and it was obviously down to the way the manager was running service. Too many restaurants these days have managers/senior staff berating or even bullying the floor/kitchen staff and it's horrible. We will be returning soon!
