Perch on Worthing Pier Reviews Summary

Location and Ambience

Pros:

• "Located at the end of the pier it has an amazing view out to the sea."
• "When we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted by a beautiful art deco styled hallway."
• "Nicely positioned at the end of Worthing pier, this is a great place to visit on a nice day."

Cons:

• "We sat by the window and had amazing views towards Brighton, but it was too noisy to chat with friends."
• "The tables upstairs have the best views and seat two people. Larger parties are seated downstairs but there are still great sea views."

Service

Pros:

• "All of the waiters and waitresses were lovely!"
• "We were greeted and looked after by very friendly and professional staff who knew the menu well."
• "The service is a 5 star. You are being checked on regularly but you won’t feel pressured at all."

Cons:

• "We were shown to our table and basically forgotten. We had to tell them we were ready to order our food and drinks."
• "Service was good. We were given more time when we said we needed it, and they came back within 10 minutes, which is usually unheard of."
• "The staff were ok but definitely not up to their usual standard."

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Food was also delicious, we ate everything and if we weren’t full we would have definitely ordered more."
• "The food is amazing, reasonably priced for the UK, was incredibly flavorful not like common restaurant chains."
• "Both the cocktails and food were amazing!"

Cons:

• "The chips that came with them were great but they were a little bit cold and wish there was more of them!"
• "The last time we had mussels there they were beautiful, this time they weren’t properly cleaned and barnacles were still attached, the mussels themselves were tiny and shriveled."
• "The starters could do with a little tweaking, like not great servicing hot prawns with them in the shells."

Price and Value

Pros:

• "Food is great. Price-quality ratio good as well."
• "The kitchen is under the spotlight and the brigade did very well."
• "The food is very much akin to Perch in Lancing. Talking of Lancing, unlike there on the pier you don't have the chaotic and noisy atmosphere, here it's calm and you can enjoy the views and great music."

Cons:

• "One let down for me was the wine, when you’re passing the £8 mark for a glass it needed to just be a little bit better than what we got."
• "Lovely view of Sea is only good thing I have to say. It was too noisy to chat with friends. I have a food intolerance so could only have very expensive fish and chips."
• "Food was nice but not amazing, although I’m a great believer of it’s not only about the food hence the 5 star review."
