Don't forget Bramber , reasonable pub and Chinese and carvery at the Old Tollgate , the Indian is a fine eatery
Marharajah is one of the best curry houses I have ever been to.

Sullington is actually where it's at of course.....
Seriously Storrington is very user friendly and a great place to live if, like me, you are married, middle aged and no longer interested in yoof 'activities'. Given the size it has got to it is probably not a village anymore and the traffic congestion on the A283 is awful morning and evening.
Both the Golden Willow (Chinese) and Cottage Tandoori (Indian) are fine but my favourite is 13 Church Street (Thai). Mostly sit down but does a limited but very good take away menu.
The Moon is the best of a fairly mediocre bunch of pubs in the village but there are loads of good ones within a few miles.
I can confirm the Five Bells West Chilts is the best place locally for beer (5 ales mostly from micros range from lightweight to gor blimey, 1 is always a mild - the Landlord knows his beers and is a top bloke).

I think there is a problem with Manleys Hill, as you come into Storrington from the east due to traffic congestion. They've had an air quality monitor there for quite a while, but I can't imagine it improving much so long as there is so much traffic. Do vehicles coasting down a hill pump out more bad gases? Perhaps it's the vehicles accelerating up the hill as the leave the village? Many moons ago a route for a southern bypass was at an advanced stage, but never came to fruition.

I used to work with Matt Andrews, who would be a regular in the Kings Head. If you know /see him, send my best wishes and ask him when is he coming to Malta ?
One word of warning. The motor spares shop in School Hill is (or at least was) run by a Palace supporter.
I bought some number plates from him when I had a BHA plate and he managed to do front and back even though I'd only ordered back. Obviously, the front one was no use to anyone else, so he gave it to me for free. Then forgot to charge me for the back one! Foolishly, I pointed out his error and paid up.
He's actually a very nice bloke!
If you want atmosphere at lunchtime, I can thoroughly recommend Appia (not). I've never seen anyone else in there on the few occasions we went in from work. I guess it gets busier in the evenings.
I worked there for several years up to 2010 and actually quite like the place. Especially now it has a Waitrose rather than a Somerfield (same "care in the community" staff, mind you).
