Anglesey Arms in Chichester

A lovely Sussex pub. Stopped for a drink after work on a Friday. Plenty of parking, welcoming bar with a wide selection of drinks, including soft and zero’s. Bar area is compact but restaurant is spacious.

Sunday lunch was really good. Good vegan options, especially the pudding! The dining area of the pub is really cosy. Waiting staff were polite and attentive. A very welcoming pub, we enjoyed our visit.

Such a brilliant experience! We had a booking for 30 people on Saturday and everyone said how wonderful both the food and the service were. We started our day with bacon baps in front of the fire which was just gorgeous and then we set off for a walk up to Halnaker Mill. We were all looking forward to a hearty lunch on our return and weren’t disappointed. RJ , Katie and the entire team were excellent. The food was utterly delicious! Nothing was too much trouble for RJ, his positive can do attitude is to be commended. The Anglesey Arms served up a good old fashioned hospitality at its best. Thank you

Great food with great service. One of the nicest chocolate brownies I have had in ages just a bit small!

Such a lovely pub. The food is superb and the menu includes many vegetarian and vegan options - they should make this more known. Gorgeous margaritas. Reasonably priced too.

Was fully booked when we arrived at 1215, when it opened for lunch at 1200. The staff still allowed us to eat in the bar area.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch here

Stopped in for a roast on the off chance this afternoon, to make the most of a sunny Sunday. Restaurant, bar area and garden were rammed - a sign of doing something right. We were able to find a table outside after a short wait and ordered our food at the bar. Bar staff were pleasant when ordering and overall the roasts were good. Generous portions, nicely cooked meat, tasty cauliflower cheese - but a table of 4 of us had all 3 meat offerings between us, and not one of them came with any of the advertised sauces (bread sauce for chicken, horseradish for beef, apple sauce for pork.) After having food dropped off at our table, the runners / servers were nowhere to be found, and we had to find our own cutlery/ napkins / condiments as no-one came back to check on us. Good food, but definitely recommend booking and eating in the restaurant, hopefully the service experience is slightly better in there, than being left to fend for yourself elsewhere on the premises.

Great lunchtime stop, very good service.

Disappointed. After reading glorious reviews I have been expecting a nice meal at least. But failed to live up to expectations. My supposed to poached egg was hard boiled, although the waitress offered to exchange it. But it was too late as we had already started our meals. Toast was burnt and melted cheese was rubbery. Expensive for a poor meal.

Lovely pub. Delicious starter to share, but the homemade chicken and ham pie left a lot to be desired. Where was the meat? And the pastry was too thick and doughy. Shame

Cosy pub. Good selection of beers. Good choice of very well cooked dishes.

What a find! An outstanding dining experience during a very busy Saturday evening made even better by Kirsten's attention and humour. Thank you for accommodating us at such short notice. We hope to return in the spring and enjoy your hospitality and garden.

Stopped in on rainy day for a pint and a bite Had the steak sandwich and mushrooms toasty Both fantastic Holds both a pub and a posh dining feel (Stayed on pub side) Oliva tho lacked in the building a fire skills was absolutely lovely If you're passing through or looking for a place I would very much recommend

Nice Ploughman's, good service, nice garden

Superb meal with great service and pleasant ambiance

From the moment we arrived till we left we loved it. We booked to stay on one of the pitches with our campervan while visiting Goodwood Revival. The staff were so helpful, the landlady drew me a map showing me how to walk to the festival. We had classic pie and chips on the pub which was good. Good outdoor area where the landlady came and lit heaters for us so we were comfortable. Thank you for showing us such great hospitality… will definitely visit again

Great pub with a lovely huge beer garden. Very relaxing. Lots of attention to detail, nice community feel with fun events like a Halloween dog fancy dress.

Pre-booked & pre-ordered as we were a party of 14. Pub was really busy serving food when we arrived but were shown to our table straight away. Drinks & food all served promptly. Food was great, staff smiley & helpful - couldn't fault our night out - many thanks!

Absolutely scrumptious food, great atmosphere, gorgeous place and the staff were wonderful, we will definitely be going back again soooooooooon... 👌🏻😋🤤

Excellent village pub offering good food with a smile.

Would go there again. Food was pretty good. Service was good although one lady serving was a little off. Could of been slightly less miserable... But I do recommend.

Friendly, helpful staff and good food.

We had the most fabulous lunch here last week. The memory of the delicious apple and sultana crumble will last in my memory for ever. Thoroughly recommend. Lovely young woman was very attentive but I can’t remember her name. Apologies.

Lovely find first time visited for a number of years. Had late lunch on Saturday. Sat in the garden, great idea with the outside bar and pizza oven

Gorgeous country pub serving delicious, well presented food. Friendly staff. Beautiful location. Great garden to relax and enjoy the sunshine. Dog friendly.

First time going to this restaurant after it was highly recommended by a friend. We chose a this restaurant as it was the most appealing out of the 5 recommendations we were given. Today was my husband’s 38th Birthday, so we decided to drive 45mins from Gosport to celebrate. Firstly, I ordered a Raspberry & Apricot Fizz cocktail but, was given the wrong mixer. Luckily my husband noticed this as I’m not allowed grapefruit. This was quickly rectified. When we ordered our roast, we ordered a bottle of red wine but, weren’t given any wine glasses. We were then approached by the waitress about 30mins into waiting for our food and told that there has been an issue with the orders and our food shouldn’t be much longer, we were offered a free drink or dessert but, we were a little bit disappointed at the end of the meal to find we had been charged £11 something service charge. when we felt we didn’t receive the best service on this occasion. The food was beautiful but, a little disappointed by the experience. We weren’t the only table to experience this today, we witnessed food being returned to the kitchen, food served to the wrong table and long food waiting times.

Lovely pub, we popped in on a hot day for lunch. Good choice of drinks and a nice lunch menu. Great service by cheerful and helpful staff. Definitely recommend if you're in the area, especially on a hot day as the outside seating is very nice.

We stopped by for a lunchtime meal. We chose to sit in the garden under the large tent, mostly because we had our dog with us, but also it was a nice day. The food was excellent and the pub had certainly changed in the 40-odd yeas since my last visit! We will definitely be visiting again..

It is a nice pub, celebrating its 3rd anniversary. Service was quick, food was delicious. I would recommend this pub.

Food was fantastic the best we have had .staff was very help, full and friendly will be going back again

Great pub found it on way home from bognor beer and food was excellent staff were very friendly will definitely be going back 😋

First visit to this delightful pub in Halnaker. Parked in car park & walked up Halnaker Hill to enjoy the windmill, the flower rich chalk grasslands & the views. Returned for lunch for 3, on a Monday. Sat outside & couldn't fault a thing. Will definitely be back.

Popped in for a lunchtime beer, opens at 12, got there at 12:30 expecting it to be pretty empty, but was rammed which clearly says a lot about the pub, while there for an hour the people kept coming so clearly a very popular place, food looked good on other people's table, huge beer garden with plenty of seats and even a boules area.

Cracking pub and very nice Sunday lunch. Nice outdoor garden too. Would be 5 stars, but the ladies loos offering appeared to comprise of just one cubicle which was blocked on the day 😕

Chicken schnitzel with garlic butter & skin on chips is crispy, succulent, to the point the kitchen ran out Lemon & honey cheesecake with popcorn is smooth, creamy & delightful

We had just completed the nearby Windmill Trail Circular Walk (5 miles) and stopped at the Anglesey Arms on the off-chance for food at around 5:30pm on a Saturday without booking. No issue; we had a table, attentive service, and all 3 of us enjoyed our meals. I splashed out on the pan-fried lamb steak dish. Gorgeous! I cannot comment on the beers as I was driving. My wife enjoyed her 'Beyond Meat' burger whilst our 22yo son enjoyed his 'double burger'.

This place has got so much better in recent times. Pleasantly surprised by the pizza today which compelled me to leave a review. Although I appreciate the cost of a pint here is the same as anywhere else in the area, I would be a much more frequent visiter if it were a little cheaper.

I've visited a few times. On this occasion I did not have food, I had a catch drink with a friend. We sat in the garden. Someone came out to tell us last orders were called, so my friend got another drink in, I was happy to finish what I had. No one asked us to come in or told us the pub was now closing, but we got the hint when they turned off the lights. Fortunately we had torches on our phones to find our way out. A bit rude, we thought. Still, it could have been an oversight...

Amazing food! Incredible staff and in a beautiful location!!! The burgers are the best in west Sussex!!!! A must visit!!!

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch here. Staff were very attentive and the food was outstanding. Beautifully presented and very tasty. The vegetarian option of lentil and butternut squash filo tart was exceptional (as was the lemon and honey cheesecake dessert). Best pub Sunday lunch I have had so far in the Chichester area.

Lovely dog friendly pub, with great service and a nice atmosphere. The lamb cottage pie, lamb rump and sticky toffee were all incredible! Highly recommend!

Disappointing 12.5% service charge added. Food was nice

Very nice food and drink, service good.

Manager, he was extremely rude & unhelpful! Sunday lunch poor.

A small pub, but fabulous food and a friendly welcoming atmosphere.

A very good pub, with an excellent menu. We had a lovely lunch. Dog friendly.

Great pub, delicious food, parking, fresh beer from the barrel. Located just outside Chichester well worth a visit or two.

Accomodating, friendly, and FANTASTIC food!

Awesome food, we had the bbq, friendly & helpful staff & fab, huge rear garden. Had a couple of games of boules

Great place to stop for lunch on a Summer’s day. Garden is big with lots of tables. The fish finger sandwich and club sandwich were delicious! Friendly staff too.

A nice pub with a really nice garden. The food was really tasty but the prices are a little on the high side in my opinion.

I've had some good meals in this pub in the past. We had lunch here recently and whilst my food was fine, my wife's fish finger sandwich was nothing more than a couple of fish fingers and some lettuce between two pieces of sliced white bread on an otherwise empty plate. For a £10 sandwich served in a restaurant we had expected something a little more inspiring than what you would slap together for a kids packed lunch, maybe a few salad leaves on the side, fresh granary bread, perhaps even a couple of crisps wouldn't go amiss. The waitress was very pleasant and understood my complaint, but the young girl who brought our drinks over could have put a smile on her face, my wife said thank you and got no response or eye contact, she was just looking at the floor, plonked the drinks at the end of the table and walked off. I've just checked my receipt and despite complaining about the food, a 10% service charge had been added to the bill too which I wasn't even aware of as I just paid on our way out and took the receipt with me, I didn't have a chance to review the bill first.

Great food better quality than standard pub grub.

Good selection of beers, well worth a visit.

Place was nice and food decent but my Italian husband complained the fish was overcooked and potatoes undercooked.

Great tasting food and good beer. Nice old fashioned pub with very pleasant garden

Popped in this afternoon 23/5/24 had a beer, after coming back from halnaker windmill. Dog friendly.

Met some friends for dinner. The pub was really busy so it was a lovely atmosphere. The food was ok. I found the portion of fries a bit stingy as they were served in a basket, which seems to be the trend and the basket was small. The chicken was a little bland as there wasn't enough garlic in the butter but it was nice and crispy. I would return and give it another go but I did find it expensive for what I had.

Great food and pub and staff. Dislike adding tip to bill, would rather give it to the person serving me.

popped in for an early Sunday meet up and grabbed a coffee and a baon roll

We visited the Anglesey arms on a Sunday afternoon. This was our first visit. We like to try out different pubs for Sunday lunch. The menu looked really nice and was initially thinking that we had found a nice country pub. The kids food came out first and it looked really good, nice portion size and good quality. When the adult roasts arrived they looked good. But once you moved the meat to one side, it revealed only a small number of new potato sized roast potatoes. The green veg was also very disappointing in size. We had 4 slices of carrots to share between us and a few spoonfuls of cabbage. We had to ask for another portion of veg, which we were charged £4.00 for. The chicken and beef we had was ok, but nothing special. So as a summary, I was pretty impressed with the kids menu and deserts for quality and portion size and also value for money. But When it comes to the adult roasts, when you are paying £20+ for a roast you expect it to be a reasonable size. There just wasn't enough and to be charged additional for a small bowl of extra green veg is a bit naughty really. We wont be returning anytime soon.

No atmosphere. Lunchtime meal. Nice food. Dog friendly. 🐕

Vying for the position of my favourite foodie pub, you really can't go wrong here. Amazing food, lovely helpful staff and amazing food..!

Food looked good but we only had drinks

Another price increase on drinks, Large wine, pint of bitter, bag of crisps £17-40, Pino plonk, cloudy beer. Such a con, we have been using this pub for 70 years between us and now seeking another meeting venue.

Very welcoming and warm inside Excellent choice of foods on menu, and all available. Quick service and delicious food, large portions. Price was very reasonable and competitive. Not ideal for people with mobility issues as several.steps up and down to get in and out, maybe a ramp to help with the step into the porch would be advantageous. The others aren't very deep.

Staff were beyond helpful and friendly. Food was really good.

A decent country pub with a more interesting menu than I expected. As a vegetarian I get so fed up with the predictable 'veggie burger and chips', but The Anglesey Arms had nearly half a dozen veggie dishes (including starters), many of which were refreshingly creative. Decent drinks selection and plenty of parking - I'd happily go back.

Excellent Sunday roast. Best in area. Good service...

Lovely meal last night, the whole team really looked after us. Thank you everyone!

Food was fabulous. My only complaint was that the glasses were not clean. Water glasses covered lime scale and old lipstick on my wineglass.

Very comfortable feel to the dining area, welcoming staff, good service and a very varied choice of food on the menu. Nice selection of beers available. The "lighter lunch" options were good to see. Very happy to recommend.

Very dog friendly pub (even have a dog menu! 😍)- the staff are all so lovely and they treat us and our pup wonderfully every visit 🙂 Food and drinks are great, service is amazing 👏

This is not our first time. We have been coming for 2 years now. Every time we come to Chichester, this is our go-to. We have never ever been disappointed. I'm a chef myself of 30 years experience, and I feel like I land in heaven when eating here. Dom, keep doing what you are doing. Love this place. Thank you everyone 💓

Had lunch today with my Son, and it was a tale of two courses. The starters were amazing, my son chicken goujons where the best he has ever had any ham hock was great. That’s where the great food ended. After a particularly long wait, even though the place was empty. The mains arrived. My son’s burger he said was nothing to write home about, my Fish n chips was poor and that’s a generous comment. The fish was thin and meagre, it’s looked substantial but after the batter collapsed it’s was just poor quality fish! The mushy pease were dry and the chips where dry lukewarm at best. I tried it, then left the lot! A waste of £17! So after the long wait for both courses I could not be bothered with complaining as nothing is ever done! So I paid, we left and will vote with our feet!

Cosy pub setting, food was delicious and staff were very attentive and friendly! Will definitely be returning

Great welcoming staff even on a busy Friday night. Lots of gluten free options even on the Italian special menu they had on. All very delicious. The waitress was very helpful and was engaged with our kids.

Great pub, great location, and really helpful and friendly staff. Very accommodating. Looking forward to visiting many more times. There were several dishes on the menu that I want to try.

Perfect! Warm welcome from the barman who found us a space in the restaurant although we hadn't booked. Good beer, excellent pil pil prawns from the specials board! My partner had the Korean chicken burger which she loved. I had the pan fried trout which was cooked perfectly. Staff were all great!

A good pub, we visited for a pre- arranged gathering. The food was fair, though portions were small for the number in the party. The pork and chicken were nice, the salad too plain, but the olives were nice. The rolls were basic, but overall.it was nice. The coffee was good value and the staff worked hard to.look after us all. It was busy, with regular customers, and a party of 30 made them work hard for today's takings. My brother was in a wheelchair and that was hard work, the layout did not suit the chair at all, the toilets were even harder, which is a shame. Overall a nice venue, not suited particularly for limited mobility, the food was fair, otherwise the venue was good.

Excellent sunday lunch staff very attentive very reasonably priced nice old style pub with good food

A disappointment, food for dinner was pretty good but too expensive with tiny portions. Drinks were terrible and poorly mixed, not even the coffee was drinkable. I really wanted to like this place being local but it just isn’t good enough for the prices charged and others locally do it far better. The dining room is not a proper restaurant and noisy, being located too close to the bar. Starters are around £10, mains £20-£30 and puddings £10. Service was good.

We were a party of eight and we were all disappointed with our meals. I had pork belly bites as a starter which had little flavour and a dry tough texture - presumably frozen and from a packet. My main course, Vietnamese curry, was the worst curry I have ever eaten - and curry is my favourite food. I ate the meal, against my better judgement, as I didn’t want to upset the mood. I complained to the waitress but heard no more about it. I paid for it with two days of a badly upset digestive system. I would drink in the pub but strongly avoid consuming any food.

Beautiful smile and welcome from barmaid with beautiful eyes. Nice welcome, great service, good food and busy pub ....very enjoyable experience we will be back 😀 Still good welcome recommend it to others 👍

Proper traditional cosy pub. Great garden for when the sun is out.

Such a homely pub! Dinner one side and boozing the other. Nice lay out with rustic/modern feels. The staff were all dead nice and very chatty and friendly. Some places are dead and the staff dead inside but these guys were joyous! Food was mega! Bring a touch cos it’s dark as hell outside !

Beautiful interior in a great location. The senior staff were a little stressed and abrasive on the Sunday afternoon we visited, but they found us a table and the waiting staff we lovely. The food was very tasty. We tried most of the bar snacks/small plates as sharing starter, the kids fish and chips was excellent and my older son had a burger from the main menu that was also very good. My wife and I both had roast pork which was very tasty though like the belly pork starter the fat couldnhave been better rendered and skin crisped up. Generally a great experience with a wonderful ambiance both in the bar and separate dining area. We will return, and book - I think we were lucky to get a table walking in between lunch and dinner sittings on a Sunday afternoon.

Lovely pub, great food, staff excellent.

Really nice! We stopped in after a walk. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the chips were great!

🎄Christmas Day Lunch 🎄: food was delicious and top quality! Super friendly staff and professional service! All wrapped up with a hug-of-an-atmosphere! Sincere thank you for a special Christmas Day! Merry Christmas and a fabulous 2024 to you all! See you soon! Nikki Woods & family ❤️.

Had an amazing lunch here on Saturday past. Great food, service, and atmosphere. Thank you!

Great food and service definitely 1 off the best pubs for service and going the extra mile even bring bowls off water for the dogs without being asked .

Excellent food and service, but very noisy

It is a very popular pub especially for walkers. Constant flow of people coming and going. Extremely dog friendly. Friendly staff. Lovely open fire. We didn't eat on this visit.

Had a festive visit to the Anglesea Arms with my husband and Mum and Dad . It's a beautiful country pub local to us . Great service and the food was excellent. We had a lovely time. Looking forward to returning on Boxing day

Beautiful country pub, cosy bar with fireplace and great beer selection. Dining room also brilliant, great menu and wine list and food was superb. Friendly attentive staff. Came with family for a birthday and loved it. Very dog friendly. Recommend the frickles from the snack menu!

Great place for a Sunday Roast!

Great food and service! Many thanks

The food is good, the beer is good too and the service is really excellent
