Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Toad In The Hole

The former Castle Tavern is now a Hand Brew Co outlet, named after the old Sussex pub game. The bold lime-green exterior certainly catches the eye, and it's still pleasingly traditional inside the L-shaped interior too. I found three of the four handpumps in use, offering the High 5 oat pale (£5.00) and Acronymius ESB plus an Ascension cider.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Toad In The Hole

A good sized standalone pub, owned by Hand Brew Co The interior was traditional and comfortable, along with a couple of picnic benches out front. The landlady was looking a little flustered as one of the handpumps had completely broke and the second one, which we ordered our beer from was also playing up, as one of the pins in the base had become loose. She did manage to get some beer out of it and the beer was good quality. Four handpumps with three beers on, which were all from Hand Brew Co, Bird Bitter, High 5 Oat Pale and Otto Dry Stout.

Has now reopened under new management and is known as The Toad In The Hole. Managed by Hand Brewery Co who have a brewery and tap room in West Worthing. Some redecoration has been done, but probably more to be done. Currently has two ales on hand pump and a number of keg taps. Opening hours are not yet fully confirmed but probably late afternoons Monday to Wednesday until 11pm and noon until 11pm Thursday to Sunday.

There is a Toad In The Hole game in the bar area. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toad_in_the_hole_(game)
