Bonito Lounge in Arun - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Was really impressed with both the friendly service and tasty tapas. Did the Tapas Tuesday good portions great tasting

We dropped in for a lunch and were greeted by lovely staff. The chairs were comfortable and the decor really good. We ordered our meals by the app which was sooo easy!! You could even choose not to have sauces, tomatoes etc, really helpful. And when my chicken and smoked bacon burger arrived I was really happy with the size of the chicken, the flavour was amazing!! I'll definitely be going back!! Thank you!!

Thankfully the place was quiet early week night. (No screaming kids or quizz night.) No Guinness on the premises, just lager type beers. Not a cheap place to drink, but at least it keeps the riff raff at bay. (NB Not my words, but the manager of a nearby coffee shop when I asked for a 'nice place' to have a beer.) I had to laugh, the chef had ordered in a take out pizza which was delivered during my visit. (Either the food is no good in this place, or the staff don't get a discount?)

Fantastic place! Mike is the best host ever !!!nothing too much trouble fantastic service and food and drink amazing!! Staff wonderful and everything was brilliant highly recommend!

Décevant. Cet endroit est sympa pour boire un verre mais la restauration n'est pas satisfaisante. J'ai commandé une salade et des frites car je suis végétarienne. La salade aurait parfaitement convenue à un lapin et ne valait pas son prix. Quant aux frites, elles étaient trop salées. Mon ami a commandé un fish and chips. Plus de panures que de poisson.

Came in for breakfast as the place looked really nice and the food being served looked really good. Service was terrible though. Server was quite curt when we were ordering - and only ordering 3 sandwiches and coffees - and then we waited 45 mins for food. Asked when we would be served and she tried telling us they had tried to deliver food and we said it wasn’t ours. Not true at all! Then had to wait another 10-15 mins for the. To be re-cooked. First and last visit!

The Lounge is a great addition to Bognor. I have eaten here a few times, and have had no problems ordering gluten free food. This time I had a vegetarian with me who also found just what they wanted. Even though it was half term, and busy, we were found a table and our food arrived soon after we ordered. I’ve always found the staff very helpful and friendly. Only one observation - please improve the lighting in the ladies loos, it’s much too dark in there.

Lovely vibrant place. Forget all these negative comments!! There just grumpy old people!!!. We found great food and cheerful staff!!...

Good food . Good big menu to cater for all, the lamb flatbread is great , just needs a little less sauce but overall pretty dam tasty .

Soup?-NO Ginger Beer?-NO Patas Bravas ?-NO What a shame. Very negative experience and yes I did let them know I wasn’t happy about it but a shrug and eye roll was the answer so hey ho. Won’t go back

I have to use a mobility scooter and, unusually, access was quite easy. I arrived at noon and sat and waited... and waited... and waited... After being studiously ignored for thirty minutes - yes, half an hour! - I gave up and went home where I cooked myself a coup[le of poached eggs on toast. Thanks, bonito lounge - I won't be back.

A group of 24 friends from our running club booked to go to Bonito’s for a pre Christmas breakfast. Booking was easy. When we arrived we had the upstairs area to ourselves, which was great! Service was quick and efficient and the food was delicious. The staff were all friendly. All in all it was a great morning. We will have no hesitation in returning in the future. Thank you Bonito’s for a great morning

We had our Christmas party here yesterday evening and we can’t fault any of our experience here! We were a large group of 16, it was very busy when we arrived (with it being Wednesday quiz night) but our food came out in good time and the food was very well enjoyed by all! Ryan made an extra effort to look after our party and was so helpful when it came to splitting the bill individually, he made sure we were all having a nice time! We really recommend bonito lounge for their Christmas menu and normal menu.

Visited with friends on a Tuesday evening. Everyone enjoyed the food - the flatbread with lamb shawarma was delicious and not overpriced. It may say "a light bite" on the menu, but it was perfect with chips for a main meal. Staff were friendly and attentive. Will definitely be going again.

Visited Saturday 7th Oct during the afternoon. The staff were very busy clearing up and serving food. They still found a little time to assist me with my meal choice, as it needed to be both milk free and gluten free. I chose the vegan beyond burger, in the gluten free bun (the bun only has egg white in it, no milk). It was really tasty. The staff did ask us if everything was OK with our meals, which we appreciated as it felt genuine. Thank you.

Lovely place, couldn’t fault the food or the service. It’s a very extensive menu and I would that everyone would find they something they would like.

Great option in Bognor. Some good portions a little small for the price (Carbonara and Nasi Goreng). Friendly and helpful waiter.

The food at this establishment can be a bit hit and miss in presentation and heat. If you go on a quiz or bingo night the service is extremely slow. There never seems to be enough staff to cope with the extra footfall when these events are on.

They have a vegan menu so that’s a def thumbs up from me! The vegan beyond meat burger was very nice . They are very welcoming and the service is good

Just had brunch here with family and I have to say what a wonderful experience. The service was wonderful the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious especially the pancakes. Would highly recommend a visit

Fantastic tapas at a reasonable price, all dishes are delicious and plenty filling especially with a free drink on Tuesdays, great experience.

Amazing food would 100% recommend. One of the best food experiences I have had. they have a very good tapas selection that i really enjoyed

I had been here twice before, but I think this experience is worth reviewing. Needing to do some schoolwork, I came to the Lounge on my own with lots of books and a laptop. The staff let me choose where to sit and I didn't...

We were in Bognor for a couple of days. Looked for somewhere reasonable. This has a varied menu and nice music in the background. It was fairly quiet when we went but the food was good and service friendly. We had to order food on...

Had a delicious vegan hummus with flat bread. My friend opted for the quesadilla which was a tad spicy and she was concerned it might be too spicy and as she has a throat problem the manager , Rob, gave her a small taster first.....

Fab venue, fab food, all the staff were very friendly..... what's there not to like. To be recommended.

I visited Bognor with my 10 year old, very sophisticated granddaughter a couple of weeks back and I'd promised her a McDonalds as a special treat as she has coeliac disease but can eat some of their food. We were disappointed that their restaurant in...

Food was great, the service not so much, me and my partner ordered food and drinks using the qr code, waiting time was not long at all, we got our drinks and got asked for id, only one of us had id on us so...

Best coffee in town with really helpful and cheerful staff. Plenty of comfortable seating. Highly recommended

Amazing food and quirky decor. Staff were really lovely and got whatever we asked for correct - like no ice in our drink or just a cup of boiling water not in the menu. The service was quite slow so we were famished by the...

Service was very slow today, took a while to actually order our food, my friends drink took 15 minutes to come and she had finished her meal by the time it came. Will go again, hopefully just short staffed today.

The food and cocktails were lovely, service was quick and very reasonably priced. Tapas is also very good value for money and delicious food! Would deffo come back :)

Amazing breakfast in a very pleasant restaurant, the decor is amazing. The staff were very polite too which made our visit even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend a visit.

Popped in for lunch today and had a selection of tapas food was cooked beautifully and full of flavour, the staff were very friendly in fact all the staff were smiling which is nice to see when you arrive, really look forward to returning for...

The staff here are absolutely brilliant, the chap behind the bar was literally born to host in hospitality. There are plenty of vegetarian options on the menu (3 of us veggie all having gone for different food and lots more choices). I would go as...

We attended Bonito for pre theatre dinner, the premises looked very comfortable and relaxed. We were met by the door and shown to our table upstairs, everything is good so far.... then it changed for me... I noticed that we could order drinks through an...

Food is all frozen, some dishes still frozen inside. Slow service. Rude staff. Just another soulless chain

Just looking for a light lunch whilst shopping in Bognor on Sunday we liked to look and menue of this welcoming bar/restaurant so popped in The fact it was reasonably busy and we'd been advised we my have to wait 20-30 minutes for our food...

I have been coming to Bognor Regis off and on over the last 40 years or so. The Bonito Lounge was a new place for me - on the corner where previously a retail clothes shop existed. We sat towards the back on the ground...

Came here recently as a family group of 8 celebrating my dad's 70th birthday. Food and drinks were excellent, we all had something different and agreed it was all tasty and plentiful. We even had room for dessert! The drinks were also great plenty to...

Had a great time, good food, service and value. Great gluten free options and dog friendly. Highly recommend this bistro

Nice lunch, some dishes were not available but what we had was nice. Quite expensive for what it is but food was nice.

We had a lovely meal on our first trip to Bognor. We were greeted at the door and had a few choices of tables. The food and drinks were delivered to the table, all quickly, and all really enjoyable. The service was prompt and friendly.

Me and my family came here for an evening dinner and it was amazing! Excellent variety would recommend the halloumi burger!

This restsurant is a really nice friendly place. The food is very good and the staff were all very polite and considerate. My friends and I ate there on a regular basis as it is situated in the High Street which was very convenient.

Dropped in after a heavy night at Butlins.Loveky food,fresh and large portions. Loved the decor ! Really good value and lots of choices.

Visited for morning coffee and was so impressed went back for lunch. Coffee and food was excellent. Staff very friendly. Prices reasonable.

The experience at bonitos couldve been 100%better let us know when seated u need to order at bar also no check back on food /drinks Must say mocktails lovely Food was excepetable Maybe try this establishmentn on another day

Bonito lounge is a really nice chilled place,my daughter says the breakfast is the best in bognor! I agree with her! All of the staff are friendly and the food is always excellent! Thank you for a lovely breakfast again this morning!

Today was our 6th visit for a snack and drink, and as with all the other visits it did not dissapoint. We have tried something different from the menu on each occasion from Eggs Hollandaise to today's Twisted Chicken Club, and without fail all have...

Ordered the pulled brisket chilli. While the food arrived promptly, it was very bland and nothing to write home about. I lacked a definitive kick and wider flavour. The rice which came with it was also quite tasteless. Service from the guy taking the order...

We had heard that a new bistro bar had opened on the old site of Bon Marché and decided to give it a try. We visited on a mid Monday afternoon so the place was pretty quiet. I’m not sure what it might be like...

We arrived at 9.27pm (they stop serving food at 9.30pm) but it was no trouble to feed us. We were very grateful for this as we were starving and it was late. Food was pretty good. I agree with other reviews that the tables could...

Once the food arrived it was very nice, I guessed their short staffed as tables were left a long time with food on once customers had left so the seagulls were having the time of their life’s eating the left over food, not very nice...

Extensive menu choice and large indoor seating area with some tables outside on pavement. On the day we visited the "windows" were fully down so that made it more pleasant. Food and drinks most acceptable not stand out and arrived fairly promptly after ordering at...

It was our first visit, we were surprised by the selection of different dishes. We both went for the all day breakfasts. Although it was busy our meals arrived quickly and was very hot although I had noticed some great desserts on the menu, I...

Nothing more Nothing more to say really. Service was nice enough - but food was very mediocre. Had a 6/10 burger. Wouldn't go back.

We have been here twice for brunch and the choices available for gluten intolerance is the biggest ever seen on a menu. Nearly everything on the standard menu has a GF alternative from snacks to main meals. The staff are really friendly polite and always...

Went with my husband and toddler. The food was good (not amazing) but the restaurant has a really nice feel to it and the staff were lovely. There was also dominoes and jenga to keep us entertained when we waited for our meals

Beautiful restaurant and the food was amazing (I'm a coeliac vegetarian and they have a great menu). BUT we ordered at 7.30, was told food would be an hour (fair enough) and we were served at 9.50! The restaurant is so under staffed which is...

Called in for breakfast. Food and service was great. Venue is stunning. So impressed we went back for tapas for dinner. Easy to order using QR code. Quick service. Wine was good, food was fresh and tasty. Would definitely go back. A very lovely evening.

We ordered via the app and thought being asked if we wanted to add a tip on was a little cheeky before we had even had any food or drink. The food was average and not overly hot. The burgers to be fair were well...

We had lunch at the Bonito Lounge on a sunny Saturday , we sat outside and the waitress told us we we would need to order our food at the bar inside , on our visit we engaged with 5 staff , the guy who...

Popped in for a quick lunch and ended up staying for over an hour sitting outside in the sun with amazing tapas. Food and drinks are excellent value and very good service. Really happy this is part of our town. Well done guys

Came here with my sister and son simply because my sister is a vegan and she was impressed by the size and variety of the vegan menu as she is used to having only 2 options if she is lucky and no variety whatsoever. We...

Before going to this restaurant I read reviews and it really put me off as the food was rated poor, but seeing the beautiful interior still decided to give it a go, and to my surprise food was delicious. Definitely recommend visiting this lovely place.

Lovely new place in town. Great food and friendly staff. Would recommend to anyone to go . But it does get busy in there as it is good.

Visited the first week of opening for dinner and the service was awful. From placing our order to the delivery, or should I say non delivery of food it went so wrong. I put this down to teething issues and returned this weekend for breakfast....

Oh wow I had the lounge eggs with hollandaise , spinach mushrooms and tomato, literally to die for. Perfectly cooked, fresh, it sounds a simple dish but I’ve never had a breakfast that tasty before and I’ve eaten at tons of places all over the...

We went in the evening for a meal. Food was lovely and good value. We were a group of 5 sitting upstairs and would have like table service rather than going downstairs individually to order. The ambience was good with interesting decor. Slightly noisy as...

Even though the staff were very welcoming, the food was ok, but not worth the money we actually paid, I also think the staff should have some type of uniform or name badge so you can see who works there…

A warm welcome by the manageress and all the waiting staff we came across awaits your visit. We picked a table and several extensive menu options were offered including Vegan and Gluten Free. I went with the normal 'with meat and gluten' menu and my...

First time coming here, I'm local, was instantly greeted by a lovely boy called Harry. Was so polite and helpful. Will definitely come back for his excellent service. Cocktails were good too.

Just had lunch at Benito Lounge. Really good! It’s Sunday and this was my first time here. The restaurant has only been open a couple of weeks but it is obviously very popular. We had two tapas boards with a variety of dishes (6in total)...

We popped in for a late afternoon snack. There were plenty of vegan choices, the chocolate orange torte was delicious and the patatas bravas were so tasty! The staff were really friendly and helpful. This is a really relaxing place, somewhere to unwind and relax.

Great place funky decor good prices for the sort of venue nice food and coffee give it a try plenty of space good service slightly noisy when busy
