The Stonemasons Inn is a 17th-century building on North Street in Petworth, combining its history as a row of cottages with its current role as a pub and restaurant. Its location places it in the heart of the West Sussex countryside, making it a convenient stop for those exploring the area or visiting Petworth House and Park.
The restaurant offers a menu rooted in British pub classics, with a focus on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Dishes include hearty options such as steak and ale pie and lighter choices like a smoked salmon and prawn salad. Seasonal produce features prominently, and the menu caters to a range of appetites, from smaller plates to more substantial mains. A children’s menu is available, making it a family-friendly dining option.
The building retains much of its original character, with exposed beams and rustic touches that reflect its heritage. The dining area is divided into smaller spaces, creating an intimate feel, while the outdoor seating in the garden provides a pleasant setting for al fresco meals during warmer months. The pub also includes a bar area, offering a selection of beers, wines, and spirits.
The Stonemasons Inn also provides accommodation, with five en-suite rooms available for overnight stays.
