Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Haywards Heath

Everything was perfect! We all enjoyed with the foods and the service.

Great dinner at Moody Mare, staff were very patient with us to choose and attentive. will be back!

This is a treasure and exudes good taste. An instantly warm welcome from interested, intelligent and engaging staff. Good to meet Andrew who’s running it with grace and professionalism, honed from years of experience in Michelin starred places. The conservatory dining area is an elegant, nicely illuminated, well laid out and acoustically friendly area, ideal for conversation and thank goodness, with no mindless music, just the gentle hubbub of gastronomic appreciation. We had lunch with our octogenarian relative. I chose the vegan, butternut squash terrine….an exquisitely delicious triumph, the best I’ve ever eaten and a work of art! My husband’s burger, sumptuous beef, excellently seasoned, in a delightful brioche bun with beautiful chips. My mother in law chose gammon, perfectly tender and a ‘just right’ portion. Afterwards, very good coffee as our digestive. Later, we walked through to the older part of the pub and found a wonderful fireplace and cosy, seating areas that we’ll look forward to trying next time. This really is the nicest pub/restaurant and a discerning gourmet’s choice. We loved it and will be back.

Spur of the moment decision to pop in for lunch at Bolney’s restaurant upstairs. Staff are very friendly and quickly got us set up with glasses of the house BdB. Soup of the day came with proper bread and local butter; the crab salad with pickled radishes was fresh and tasty. Main courses sound less interesting than the starters, but the burger and the cod and chips were well executed. We each finished with an affogato that provided a good strong jolt to get us back on our feet. It’s not particularly cheap but we both staggered out stuffed and happy

Visited on a busy Saturday lunchtime. We were well looked after, nice beer and nice lunch in a dog friendly pub.
