Located in the heart of the Goodwood Estate and surrounded by the South Downs National Park, The Star & Garter in East Dean offers a delicious selection of freshly cooked, local and seasonal food in a charming dining space with red brick and oak beams. Just a mile down the hill from Goodwood Race Course we are 12 minutes drive from Chichester. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner we try to source our ingredients as locally and as seasonally as possible. Whether you are at a Goodwood Event or walking, cycling or just out for a drive and fancy a decent meal at reasonable prices, we like to think we are one of the best around. We have a great courtyard and garden space which can seat up to 100 people. Freshly ground coffee is available all day. With a mixture of local people and tourists there's always a warm welcome here.

    This is our second visit and we won’t be back. Nice staff and friendly service but last nights food quality was poor. The trout for starters portion was minuscule whilst I appreciate with its delicate flavours it’s not meant to be a large serving this was ridiculous. There was barely one forkful. The boeuf bourguignon was very salty and resembled school dinners. No fresh vegetables were served and it was very disappointing. Many items were off the menu after a busy lunchtime which is understandable at this time of year but to serve food like this was not acceptable.

    A terrific evening for a family celebration. Great live music and the team were so hospitable on a very busy night. Super atmosphere and the food was very good, as usual.
