The Coach & Horses, Haywards Heath

A country pub that is definitely in Sussex, but has been listed under both East and West Sussex over the years. The car park, which features an old telephone box and a shelter selling local produce is quite tight. There is a much larger overflow space to the left-hand side. To the right-hand side is a pretty-looking garden. Inside, there is a small bar area to the left and a similarly small room to the left, which leads into a much larger dining area down on a slightly lower level. The friendly staff had Harvey's Sussex Best Bitter on offer alongside a guest beer, which was Long Man Long Blonde. A third handpull had the local Black Pig "Cyder", which was fetched from the cellar. It was a new one for me. A pub with plenty of character that ultimately was my favourite pub of the day in Sussex.
