It's officially 'fancy going for a walk?' season. 🍂

And with the South Downs right on our doorstep, there's no shortage of lovely places to explore around Hassocks (rain or shine) this Autumn! 🥾

If you fancy a local favourite, try the Jack & Jill Loop.

If you're after views worth the climb, head towards Ditchling Beacon.

An, if you're looking for more of a countryside rambler, explore Wolstonbury Hill and Hurstpierpoint.

We've put together some of our favourite nearby walking routes on our website, perfect for making a morning or afternoon of it.

And when you're ready to find a cosy spot near a fireplace or throughout our pub, there's a warm welcome waiting at The Thatched Inn for you.

We've got hot chocolates, coffees and bar cakes, or perhaps a proper pint and a comforting pie waiting for you as your post-walk treat.

🐾 Looking for walking plans this Saturday? We're joining KAHU for our next community dog walk on this Saturday, October 24th, meeting at the pub at 10:30am. Come along and stay for lunch afterwards if you fancy!

📍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐃 𝐈𝐍𝐍, 𝐇𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐎𝐂𝐊𝐒

Voted 4th best roast in Sussex… The Thatched Inn Hassocks Brighton Restaurant Guide | Local Guide Since 2011

The roast lamb at The Thatched Inn in Hassocks was very good! Tender, full of flavour and smothered in rich gravy, with crispy roasties, seasonal veg and a huge Yorkshire pudding. The sides were just as good, too🧀

Despite being fully booked, the food came out really quickly, which was impressive considering how busy they were, but it definitely didn’t compromise on flavour or quality!

They had walk-in space available in the garden, and luckily, it was a lovely sunny autumn Sunday on the first weekend of October, so we didn’t mind one bit☀️🍂

Looking forward to coming back in the proper winter to cosy up inside, but equally excited for a spring/summer lunch in the garden here. Definitely one to add to your list

There truly is an art to just "popping in" to your local - and making your day or week a little bit more enjoyable... ☕ 🍰

A coffee before a countryside walk.
A hot chocolate and a pastry afterwards.
A midweek catch-up that lasts a little longer than planned.
Sometimes, it's the little moments that make the day.

☕ And with our new hot chocolate range, coffees and sweet treats or our set menus over lunch time and early evening, you don't need a special occasion to enjoy a little time at The Thatched Inn.

Our lunch set menu available Monday to Friday, 12 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. 🍴

And, our specialty hot chocolate range includes:
The Classic - chocolate, marshmallows & cream
Salted Caramel - Chocolate, with salted caramel, marshmallows & cream
Coconut - Chocolate, with coconut, marshmallow & cream

So next time you're passing, or fancy some fresh air at your local, pop in!

Autumn weekends were made for this. 🍂

A wander through the Sussex countryside, a basket full of something local, something warming waiting for you when you get back... ☕

And this Saturday, The Sussex Peasant's Big Autumn Market is giving us one more very good reason to make a day of it.

Saturday, October 10th from 9am–2pm at The Thatched Inn

Come for the market, stay for lunch, or head out for a walk and meet us back at the pub afterwards.

For ideas on where to walk and explore around the pub, visit our website:

However you do autumn, there's a spot in your local waiting for you and your crowd...

Quite a lot, as it happens...

🍯 Pop by this Saturday, October 10th to enjoy The Sussex Peasant's Big Autumn Market from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. to enjoy some of the best local produce, bakes and products for your kitchen this Autumn!

🍂 Our new autumn menu is now being served alongside our weekday set menu, and there’s plenty more happening throughout the month at our Hassocks pub, including our ongoing weekly offers to enjoy the same quality dishes but for a little less.

🐾 Our monthly dog walk returns Saturday October, 24th meeting at The Thatched Inn at 10:30am for tea or coffee before heading out with KAHU and returning to the pub for lunch.

🎃 For October half-term, from Tuesday, October, 27th to Saturday, October 31st, spend £10 with us and pick up a pumpkin for your little pumpkin to take home, while stocks last.

👻 Then on Halloween itself, we’ll have face painting from 4pm - perfect for feeding and getting the "little monsters" ready before heading out trick-or-treating. And if you’d rather hide from Halloween altogether?
Find yourself a cosy corner, a pint or something from our new autumn drinks menu and leave the trick-or-treating to everyone else. 🍺

🎄 And for the Christmas organisers: book a festive table for 8 or more on our 2 or 3-course festive menu before October 31st 11:59 p.m. and there are a couple of extra treats waiting - including a complimentary first glass of Prosecco for the group and a £50 Thatched Inn voucher for the organiser to enjoy in the New Year.*

If you book a table for our festive menu before the October 31st deadline, you'll also get your first glass of prosecco on us! 🥂

There’s your October sorted.

Gather your crowd, share the moment & leave nourished.
