Legendary local pub. Always popular (something possibly reflected in their prices). Horsted Keynes has two great pubs of its own (The Green Man and The Crown) and, if they aren't enough, there are plenty more within a couple of miles, our favourites being The Coach and Horses (Danehill / Chelwood Gate) and The Sloop.
