Review of Berwick Inn

Ain't like it used to be!! 
I have to agree with Katherine on this - in my youth this pub was a place we'd happily venture out to because it was worth the trek. Sadly, it's all gone downhill. The food is below average, with most dishes being microwaved to oblivion and not a fresh vegatable in sight. The decor is now extremely shabby, and in desperate need of a complete refurb. Stay away, unless you're desperate.

Review of The Dinkum

Looks nice...but that's it.
This pub looks really pretty from the outside. Smack bang in the bustling Polegate high street (watch out for zimmer frames) this pub is painted a lovely yellow and looks welcoming. However, when you enter the place is small, dingy and old fashioned. The sandwiches are on show in a fridge and are of the curled corner variety. The bar staff are grumpy and quite often ignore you, even though it's never busy. The only nice part about here is the open fire. I would say stay away!

Review of Jacovos

Disappointed.
Having spent a few years living in Cyprus, I was extremely excited to see this Greek restaurant open. The board outside boasts a full meze but it is extremely disappointing. The food is fresh but very little of it is what you would find in a traditional Meze. I have never, ever seen Scampi served up, for example. Except here. My Greek friends would find this place hilarious! You cannot fault the staff, they are a lovely family who are keen to please. This took the edge of the randomness of the menu but I have yet to visit there when it is busy. Perhaps it never gets busy. Nice food and service but don't go expecting a Greek feast.

Review of The Waverley

Stay away!
This place was very popular in days gone by (particularly with underage drinkers) However, I don't think ANYBODY goes there anymore. Tucked away behind the shopping centre, it's not in the best spot and, when I visited it last year, my friend and I were the only two people in there! If you fancy warm cider, cheap house doubles and soggy beermats then The Waverley is the pub for you.
