Inn on the Green, Ockley

Description: This traditional English pub, though situated next to a main road (A29), has a cosy and welcoming atmosphere, with plenty of seating and home-cooked food. The L-shaped central bar area has a low ceiling with oak beams while the restaurant (with a michelin- trained chef) and front side of the building, with a lounge area, have large windows letting in the natural light on sunny days. The bar is well stocked, with Fosters, Carlsburg, Guinness and several real ales, wines and the usual selection of bottled beers and spirits. It is run by Paul and Gwyneth, helped by several eager young staff members waiting to serve. At the rear is a conservatory and large beer garden. The live music is on Friday nights from 9pm. Other entertainment on offer is provided by fruit machines, dartboard, and a pool table. The only slight drawback, though no fault of the management and probably more environmentally friendly, might be the dark walk of 20 yards along the road to the large car park at the end of the evening. Bed & breakfast accommodation is also available. This venue now has free wireless internet access for patrons.
