Situated in Lingfield, home to the famed eponymous race course, The Hare and Hounds public house and restaurant has long been at the centre of the local community. A large blue painted old building given a whole new lease of life by its current owners, The Hare and Hounds remains full of charm and character, some of it integral to the pub but much thanks to the eclectic and quirky interior design in which boudoir chic meets country style meets gentlemen’s lounge. Outside, enjoy al fresco dining on decked terraces surrounded by greenery – the perfect way to relax during a lazy summer evening. The Good Food Guide 2010’s Pick of the Pubs, The Hare and Hounds not only offers a great line in drinks, ranging from the best local real ales to unusual wines from across the globe, but a stunning menu inspired by seasonal produce and the flavours of both Britain and France.
