7 of us had a pre theatre drink and dinner. Beautiful food, we all went for the braised ox cheeks which were amazing. Really pleasant efficient staff.

Otro show y otra cena temprano después. Muy buena comida, todos disfrutamos de nuestras elecciones junto con un excelente vino para acompañarlo. Servicio amable encantador de nuevo también. Sin embargo, los precios se han disparado y hay lugares de mejor relación calidad-precio en el centro de la ciudad si la ubicación conveniente aquí al teatro no es importante.

Booked an afternoon tea here for myself & 3 others for 28/12/23. Booked & paid for online via CFT site before today's event. I got sent a text reminder including a link to my e-tickets for today. The Minerva Bar is on the first floor via stairs or lift. QR codes needed on arrival. We got seated & advised any drinks outside of the included tea were extra (which I assumed anyway). English breakfast tea in teapots arrived along with a selection of 4 different finger sandwiches, sausage rolls with caramelised onion, a variety of both sweet & savoury scones & 3 types of petit fours to finish. The waiting staff popped over periodically to ask if we needed anything (we topped up both teapots & milk at no extra cost). I've only ever attended the Chichester festival theatre & it's cafe previously (opposite), nothing I've seen has been in the Minerva theatre, so this was my first time here. I understand that sometimes you can have a pre theatre meal here (I'm assuming there's more info on the CFT site regarding this). On this occasion the bar was open specifically for the afternoon tea of which there was us plus 3-4 other tables, so I can't comment if usually it's more busy/noisy. If it wasn't dark you could probably see the theatre opposite & the green open space. There's a large pay to park car park a short walk away. You pay up to 8pm. Cards taken. Not appropriate to take photos on this occasion as took the "older generation" out with us to eat. Lovely few hours out.

We weren’t expecting very much to be honest, and certainly the reception was fairly offhand. After rejecting the poorly placed table, which had been booked a couple of weeks before, we were able to secure a table near the window, which was much more pleasant. After the unfortunate impression given by the Reception lady, some body standing in from one of the offices, I believe, the members of the young staff were extremely pleasant and attentive. A particular mention for Coral, who was especially helpful. We decided to have three courses as we had plenty of time before the matinee. I started with smoked a mackerel rillettes, I liked the idea of the confit of beetroot. Which sadly turned out to be three of the tiniest cubes of ordinary beetroot I should imagine it possible to cut, a leaf or two of chicory and a slice of cucumber surrounding a small heap of mackerel. No toast not even a single slice of sour dough. How is one to eat it? I asked and was told that if I required bread it was an extra £4 for a roll. The main course was ‘roast sirloin of beef’ - sounds good? Two slices of pallid pinkish edible but tasteless long cooked meat - sous vide? Quite repellent. I ate a token amount but could not bring myself to make more of an effort. My companion chose better with the grilled sea bass which looked and apparently tasted delicious. My bad choice, even though not so keen on fish anything would have been better than that pallid tasteless ‘beef’. The lemon posset to follow was acceptable. A small selection of wine by the glass, but well chosen. Around £40 or so each. Not a meal to remember with pleasure.

Pre show dinner so expectations not high since time is limited. However, we all thought menu choices were good and the food was well presented and delicious. Having slated the restaurant under Field and Fork’s tenure, we are now looking forward to returning at future shows.

We booked the Minerva Bar and Grill space for a wake for my mother who had recently passed in late April. Her love of the theatre meant this was a perfect venue. From when I made the first phone call to the delivery of service; Amanda was amazing. She interpreted my needs very well which lead to seamless delivery of service - outstanding service. All of the staff on the day, including Hugo the manager were just brilliant. Attentive and kind, nothing too much trouble. Our guests commented on the food, and service of all the staff, and all of our needs were met beautifully. Would definitely recommend.

Back here for a post matinee dinner, last of the festival run for 2022. This time our meal for five was better than when we visited earlier in the summer. We all enjoyed the food, even going the whole hog with three courses which at around £32 a head was good value. Service was much improved too this time round with a different set of friendly enthusiastic young staff. Restaurant was busy but with a good atmosphere.

The staff were very helpful and as one of our party was delayed waited for us to order. I had the Asian trout meal but it was not very filling, it needed some rice to be included in the dish. The restaurant is very convenient for the theatre especially as it was raining.

Whoever is now behind this restaurant has completely turned it around. The staff are genuinely friendly, the atmosphere is great and the food is superb. The dishes feel like they are freshly made which even some highly regarded restaurants I've eaten at don't always manage. I would suggest having the full three courses because the portion sizes are not huge. The dishes are creatively done without being so esoteric as to be offputting. The main courses are slightly better than the desserts, but that is only because the main courses are surprisingly excellent. Overall a great experience, and it's pretty good value too. And I'd recommend eating there even if you're not going to the theatre afterwards.

Perfect pit stop for a freshly cooked Chicken Breast Fillet Burger! Tasty fresh food, excellent service and fantastic value! (Cash only and cashpoint machine 30m up the road, so very handy)

Mi esposa y yo llegamos a las 2 35 para esperar en la puerta durante 5 minutos a un restaurante 3 / 4 vacío para que nos digan que no se llevan más personas, ya que estaban ocupados anteriormente. Qué terrible modelo de negocio cuando todos reclaman el comercio es tan malo en este momento. No hay disculpas, ya que no parecen dar un tiro, así que cruzó la carretera a Zizzi y se sirvió excelente comida con un servicio irreflexivo. No perderás otro viaje a Pizza express chichester de nuevo

Just had a coffee here - which was excellent. Coffee bar was empty at the time (1.30pm), but the restaurant section was buzzing. Staff v friendly and chatty

Do yourself a favour and eat anywhere but at Five Guys, anywhere. Outrageously overpriced and the food is at best average. The burgers are ok (but again, massively overpriced), the rest of the menu is gross and I've had better fries out of a microwave. Do yourself a favour and avoid Five Guys like the plague.
