We came for our favourite, the ham hock and chicken pie with mash cabbage, peas and bacon and the signature chicken gravy. We have tried this in other Hall and Woodhouse pubs as my husband is a huge fan of Badger Brewery and its always 10/10. Sad to say we were given normal gravy, as it was a Sunday and possibly easier for the chef, however this was a slip in attention to detail, the pie was also very dry. Admittedly when I let the waitress know about the gravy she told the kitchen staff and it was replaced. Staff lovely, not sure why it closed at 9:45pm, on a bank holiday Sunday but maybe this is standard as its in a residential area.

Huge pub, well decorated, good food and beerHad lunch there one Wednesday summer afternoon. Wasn't very busy. Polite, attentive staff. Good selection of food, well-priced.The place is large and the paved garden quite a good size.Toilets very clean.Will go there again.

Great food and staff, prices comparable for the area and type of food served, handy if you’re stuck at Pease Pottage services for the weekend!I can heartily Recommend the beef Sunday dinner, beef was perfectly cooked and the veg was crisp and fresh.

A nice atmospheric pub. Whilst the menu may be limited for vegetarians, the food comes out hot and quite quickly.I had the vegan burger and it was tasty albeit a little dry. Delicious mozzarella wands and a bit of spice to the chilli con carne so beware!

Definitely gone downhill. Very busy which is great, but poorly staffed and bar staff very stressy shouting which table number when our table didn't have one - it had literally been removed from the table top.Food OK, drinks as expected.Very dark it feels- I get the atmospheric lighting, but was difficult to see what you're actually eating in the bar seating areas.Hopefully they'll bounce back.

Nice atmosphere, good service. Good draft beer. Sloppy chilli burger was very good. Steak and Ale pie was good. Turkey club sandwich was disappointing - mainly lettuce, turkey was like a sandwich filler with mayo not pieces of turkey meat.

Had a really lovely meal in the Black Swan, before going onto Gatwick. The Chicken and Hock pie was the best I have ever had.

I don't like any of Woodhouse pubs as they don't take cash so I avoid them now but it was not my choice so we went.Food was ok to be fair. Tiny portion of chips in a small container and a lonely vegan burger on a plate for nearly £15. No attempt to hide the ocean of empty plate with a limp lettuce leaf.I honestly dont think it was any better than wetherspoons and a lot more expensive.

Friendly front of house, I walked in and was offered a table in the restaurant or bar the only difference was table service or take a number.It's a Badger Pub so some lovely ales on Tap.I opted for a pint of Tangle foot which was arrived very quick and my order was taken to the kitchen.I went with the Sloppy Joe beef burger and it was lovely with a bit of spice from some jalapeño with seeds still in. Yum.For desert, I opted for the sticky which had some chunks of honeycomb with it and vanilla ice cream.Very yummy.Thanks to the whole team and ill most definitely be back when I'm parking over the road.
