The Dukes Head Crawley

Fabulous food good service and the ambience was delightful.

Great service, the Mezze starter to share was extremely good, we weren't rushed to eat it . Mains were served when we were ready .

The Dukes Head is our favourite since years. We always bring friends and family for lunch and sometimes for dinner. One of the best near Crawley Ver carta

eating is amazing setting is amazing, the new facility is beautiful. very plough, but is not so full! such a great menu choice and delicious eating!

Meal wasn't great, my husband had the worse rib eye steak he's ever had, no wonder it was covered up by three onion rings and certainly wasn't worth £22.95 I had the spit roast chicken that wasn't great either we won't be rushing back in a hurry!!!

Was only told of 1 item not available on menu and when came to order, something else was not available so had to change mind while staff waited. Already waited 30 mins to order when the table next to us where ordering having arrived after us!! Waiting staff called upon and our order was taken! Ver carta

The restaurant was fine but we were lucky to get a table as Open Table either didn't forward the booking or the venue doesn't handle them reliably. In the end they had space and explained it happened a lot so no disaster, but I'd recommend phone to book a table. They had a reduced menu due to no grill on that day but food was fine.

The staff were inattentive and we were left a long time without even being offered a drink, despite reserving in advance. Probably just not enough people on and those who were there not sufficiently experienced at keeping track of all the customers. Starter good, main fair (colleague complained his linguine was overcooked) and dessert was good. Parking easy, so has the ingredients of a decent place if they can get the right ratio (and quality) of serving staff to diners.

A real hidden/ unknown gem... as a gluten intolerant diner, I get so annoyed when we aren't catered for (half the stuff taken off the plate, but yet still charged the extortionate amount).... NOT here.. I've been a few times now and have thoroughly enjoyed each time. The manager is attentive, friendly and a real character! He takes time and effort to entertain the children, make sure they are catered for so the adults can enjoy their food. The service is great, the food is amazing and if you're a gluten free eater, you have to try this restaurant/ pub.. it's so random as it's literally on a roundabout between east grinstead and Crawley... but 100% worth the trip... id definitely book, though...
