The Cricketers Arms

Lovely food consistently , roast one of the best around , garden nice and servers always good , lot of other pubs in alfriston could learn from the cricketers!

We enjoyed a delicious lunch of steak pie and chips at this restaurant. The service was friendly and efficient, and there was a lovely atmosphere. We were grateful for the opportunity to bring our dog along with us.

I cannot express enough gratitude to the staff for hosting a fantastic family lunch for 15 people on Saturday. Everyone felt welcome and had a great time. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. Special compliments to the Chef and kitchen staff for their outstanding work. Ver carta

Fabulous trip to this wonderful pub, the setting is amazing with beautiful views and incredible garden front and rear the service was brilliant considering how busy it was. The food was delicious we could not fault the whole experience the waiter/waitresses are so friendly and work so hard…. Thank you

Quintessentially English country cottage meets original Ale house. Garden to match. For me this pub has everything. A village pub where drinkers meet and a lovely dining option too. It exists for both. Too many pubs are now simply restaurants but not here. Not over restored, the building is still old and creeky but has great character. The staff are friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to return

Lovely traditional country pub serving traditional pub menu.Decor is nice, the service was warm and friendly and it has an abundance of outdoor seating, much of it covered.I had the ham, egg and chips which came with picalilly and a side salad.My wife had the vegetable lasagne which she found delicious which also came with a side salad and to her surprise, some chips!Definitely worth checking out Ver carta

Lovely pub, good food, have been going for 20 years, but the welcome I got yesterday when I walked in with 2 friends was dreadful. The young woman at the bar made a point of not acknowledging me, in fact all 3 women who were there ignored me. Just a smile and ‘I’ll be with you in a minute’ or similar would have be great. Overall the atmosphere was below par due to sulky staff. Go and get a lesson in receiving clients with Sue at The Star Old Heathfield!

We had already booked here and were very warmly welcomed and shown to our table. The Summer menu was varied and reasonably priced. I chose a Monterey Jack cheese burger, and my wife, Scampi and chips. Our food arrived hot and very promptly. My burger was really tasty and the house fries raised both dishes to another level- they were crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside- absolutely perfect! We both had vanilla and blackcurrant crème brûlée and I had a coffee to finish. Both of our meals were delicious and we send compliments to the chef and the management/staff for their service and attention. Thank you.

Had (Sunday) lunch at The Cricketers and, forsaking the traditional, delicious-looking Roasts for a change,J and I attacked the Specials Board for Grilled Sussex Plaice and Pan-fried chicken in mushroom sauce. Delicious food, cheerful, efficient and helpful young servers in a lovely setting. Well worth waiting half-an-hour for with a pint of Harveys' Best and a Rose Spritzer, followed by (home-made ice-cream. Taken one mark off for poor car parking facilities (easily fixable) and the high price of the booze but to be honest, the nearby Yew Trees (at Chalvington and Arlington) , although both very good, have some catching up to do. .
