Visited here for a family meal. The food was tasty, service was OK. It is in a nice location next to the river (although it was getting dark so could not see it).

Fabulous food. Lovely position. Our meal was marred by badly behaved children running around. We certainly won't let that stop us going back

We didn't stay in the rooms, simply enjoyed a dinner. For a start the customer service is 5 star. From the beginnings of making (and amending) a booking on the phone, right until the end of the evening. The girl on the phone was extremely polite, accommodating and competent. The waiter we had, who looked a little like Ben Kingsley, was very good. It seemed to me that he may have been the owner, but I can't be sure. Anyway, his manner was fantastic, not too overbearing yet appropriately friendly and warm. The food was great, and the portions generous. It seems to me that there may still be work to do on the ambience/decor. Not that it was bad, but it's somewhere in-between a pub and a restaurant, which is of course simply what it is. But the pub side of things does make you feel as if you're at an upmarket Wetherspoons. You'd happily have a birthday there, but you wouldn't propose...that kind of vibe. I will say that it was after dark so we didn't benefit from the view / outside seating. I imagine it's a wonderful place to be on a summer's evening.

Have never stayed here but have often visited for family meals. Always good food and good service. The team are fantastic Parking is available but it does get busy of an evening. There were 9 of us for dinner at our most recent visit and, despite a full restaurant, we were very well looked after.

Called in here for dinner whilst taking a super relaxed drive home from Brighton taking the coast road, dropping in at several places along the way. Ended up having a wander around Littlehampton & looking for somewhere decent to eat. The Arun View Inn did not disappoint. From the moment I walked in & announced I would like to eat I was greeted by the most hospitable landlord & offered a choice of tables & so I chose the quieter restaurant area by a window looking straight onto the river Arun. I ordered chicken supreme from the specials board which came with white wine & mushroom sauce, saute potatoes, savoy cabbage & leek, carrots & broccoli. This wascall perfectly cooked,mthe chicken was moist & delicious & the potatoes crisp & golden. A really nice dish which I thourouly enjoyed. The waitressing staff were also very attentive & came & cleared my plate etc as they clocked that I'd finished. I then ordered lemon tarte with raspberry sorbet & raspberry jus which was also jolly nice. I can hand on heart highly recommend The Arun View Inn & would go back there again in a heartbeat. Suffice to say, if I am in the area again, The Arun View will be my go to when the dinner bell rings, as apart from being good, the prices were also pretty reasonable. If you are looking for decent food & good service then go here.

It's a cute pub restaurant in Littlehampton, we were able to find a seat when we went there around 3-4 o'clock. The food was delicious and we felt very welcome in the restaurant. Fish and chips with a view of the lake was very enjoyable. If you are nearby, I recommend you to stop by. But if you are planning to have dinner, you may need to make a reservation in advance.

Had dinner and lunch here all weekend. Lovely food, very helpful staff. I used to live here, so I knew the pub previously. In the 5 years I've been away, it's still a lovely place to eat or just drink, inside and outside. The sports bar I've onky been to once but wouldn't again as a little too crowded. The restaurant side and outside along the river are definitely more relaxing, but I guess it depends on what you are looking for.

Cycled here from Gosport, didn’t have a destination in mind but the seating on the waterfront looked wonderful. Was very busy so I went into order a desert and coffee. The lady kindly let me pay and instructed me to find a table. I came out with bike and another chap working asked me if I was looking for a table, he said I could take the bench and tell the lady that. They then bought me a table to the bench which was super lovely. Food and drinks came quickly and at the same time. Lovely spot, made the spontaneous trip to Littlehampton worth it. 5 stars!!

Excellent location right by the waterside. However the decor looks like the land that time forgot. I'm guessing it was a working man's pub in the 80s and hasn't been updated since. Very pricey considering (£3.10 for a glass of post mix coke, and £1.30 for a bag of crisps!). There did seem to be plenty of staff, who were all very pleasant. By the look of the customers, I'm guessing it was pensioners special food day.

A high-end deck area, and an inside pure window view right on the very bank of the river with very interesting views of river life.... Even though every table (inside) was taken the speed of service (taking orders and delivering food was excellent (and with smiles) and the bar was just as swift.... No waiting at all - on a Sunday lunchtime, too. Good range of food and all affordable. Nut roast was lovely and the steak looked great (and thick !)

Reviewing the restaurant offering - delicious food served by delightful staff - the Arun view exceeds in all ways.

With the tide out the view of the Arun changes dramatically but thats nature for you!

Having been recommended to have a meal at the Arun View by friends we had lunch with our visitors at the Arun View. Although we had drunk here before we have never had a meal. We hadn’t realised how large the conservatory restaurant was and with a good river view for added interest. We found the menu varied and overall to our liking but as it was "fish friday" I had the fish & chips and my wife the plaice, our friends having a beef and pork dish. We had desserts but my desert was the choux bun with toffee sauce, cream and bananas – an unusual enjoyable dessert. Overall we enjoyed the Arun View and will look to a return meal sometime in the future. Would recommend to persons considering having a meal here.

Waited a long time to have our order taken. Two parties that arrived after us had their orders taken first. Was almost scorned at for just ordering drinks, when the venue is called a cafe????? Plenty of staff not doing much, toilets dirty with no loo roll. Pot of tea wasn’t too bad and the price was reasonable. Lovely sea view!

After a morning visit to Bogna Regis, we wanted something a little out of town for lunch. Found the Oak on Google maps and decided to give it a try. It was a midweek lunchtime so very few customers, which suited us perfectly as we have a quite excitable dog. We both had a lovely Brie, Bacon and cranberry baguette (£7.50) and a pint. The barmaid was lovely and very attentive to us and our dog. Would definitely visit again if we didn't live 100 miles away.

We were walked through the main pub, quite run down, made obvious by the very bright lighting, to the back of the pub which had a posh restaurant with white tablecloths. We explained that we just wanted a pub lunch but were told that it was the same menu as dinner and that this was the dining area. (which was empty). We assumed it wasn't really a lunch place so left to come back later for dinner, however the atmosphere seemed strange, too bright for a pub, entrance and flooring was very worn and didn't really feel like a country, village pub with casual dining which is what we were after. I'm sure the food is good, but pub dining is not always about the food, comfort and atmosphere is also important however if you want fine dining, white tablecloths and candles - this is the place for you.

Went today for a couple of coffees, after waiting 5 minutes some young guy who had been folding napkins eventually wandered over looking most disinterested. I asked for 2 coffees and he said ' can't do hot drinks '. No apology or reason why. Needless to say with 2 other places nearby, West Park and The Waverley, where you feel welcome will not be coming back here.
