Every meal we have ever eaten here has been plentiful and palatable.The staff have been exceptionably pleasant and go out of their way to make each occasion special and unique.
Where are the boats ???

Well below expectations
when i lived in Shoreham my friends and i went here every weekend, we played on the boats in the lake, we did the quiz's and most of all loved sitting outside in the summer having a bbq and drinking.
When i went back recently i was gutted ! The staff are miserable, the menu is massive with way too much to choose from and the lae is skanky with no boats !!!!!!!!!!
I wont be going back !

I Have always loved going to the swiss cottage for a drink in the summer, Next to the beautiful lake with the ducks and, as mentioned before, boats. BUT, I went to the swiss recently for a meal and was shocked at the dirty water in the lake for a start. Then we ordered our food from a really varied menu and when it arrived it was slung onto the table in front of us by a moody waitress who on several occasions scratched her food in between bringing food out from the Kitchen. Anyone for a bit of athletes foot with your meal. Our plates weren't taken for ages and the food was really average. My advice would be, Reduce the amount on the menu and get the dishes right. And close it down for refurb, which the ladies toilets are really in need of.

This is such a great Summer-Time family pub. I remember being brought here as a child as it has a great feel to it and is really popular in the summer. The pub is very accessible and family-friendly, with a play area and large garden and lake. (Years ago they used to have boats on the lake) Their menu is quite varied, and the food always arrives fairly quickly and is always lovely. I would definately reccomend this pub to people with children or just to pop to for a meal on a nice day.
