The Gribble Inn
About
Nestled in the heart of the 16th‑century thatched cottage of Oving, The Gribble Inn offers a warm, rustic charm enhanced by its own microbrewery that has been brewing favourites for over three decades. Visitors can sample a range of real ales crafted on site while enjoying a relaxed menu of locally sourced, seasonally inspired dishes in a cosy bar surrounded by roaring log fires. The picturesque garden and inviting bar terrace provide a perfect spot to unwind, whether you’re a local regular, a rambling enthusiast stopping by the South Downs, or a dog‑loving traveller looking for a friendly haven. Owner‑run by Simon and Nikki, the pub blends hearty food, craft beer, and a welcoming atmosphere that caters to families, cyclists, and craft beer aficionados alike.
