Really nice beachfront restaurant. Grest fish beautifully cooked. Good service. Booking essential at busy times. We paid £75 per head, for three course dinner with wine which was great value.

How good it was! The cockle and shrimp popcorn is finger-licking good, I discovered the real taste of skate wing, and the fries (dipped in mussel juice at the end) were delicious. Efficient and smiling service too!

We visit crabshack a couple of times a year. Sometimes just as a couple, sometimes with other adults, sometimes with the children. Uniquely for a restaurant crabshack is equally suitable for all of these. The staff are absolutely incredible and always make you feel you have their full attention. They'll always have recommendations and are really accommodating of my partner's allergy. Our absolute favourite restaurant. I'm already looking forward to my next visit. (Recommend Sussex Smokey after a squid starter 🤌)

First time eating in at Crabshack, normally we eat on the terrace, but it was fantastic. Awesome soundtrack. Great food as always. Was hopeful that there would be a whole fish on the specials menu - was rewarded with a brill. Absolutely spectacular, the sticky toffee pudding also fabulous. Can't wait for another trip to the south coast to visit again 🤤

Finally managed to get a table at this popular spot and now I understand why! Exceptional food and service in a rustic setting, we had the Sicilian-inspired fish stew which is probably the best dish we’ve had on the south coast so far, plenty of fish and seafood and more than enough ciabatta to mop up the broth — I came close to licking my plate.

How have we lived on the south coast for over three years and not eaten at this restaurant? Although not a particularly large menu there is plenty of delicious fare for anyone who likes seafood and nothing that we ordered disappointed. The food was well cooked, well presented and served in good time by staff who obviously cared about their customers. We will most certainly be visiting this restaurant again.

A Hidden Gem by the Sea I had never been to Worthing before, but I visited for a professional reason. After finishing my work, I decided to look for somewhere to eat before heading back to London. I parked by the seaside and enjoyed a short walk along the pebbled beach, taking some photos of seagulls, before coming across The Crab Shack, which looked very inviting. From the moment I entered, the staff were incredibly welcoming, making me feel at ease even though I was dining alone. I ordered the pan roasted whole brill with a lemon and caper butter sauce served with skinny fries : it was simply outstanding – reminiscent of the Dover sole and chips I often used to have as a child. The sauce was particularly wonderful, and I enjoyed it so much I wished I could have ordered a second portion! I would highly recommend The Crab Shack for its excellent food, friendly service, and lovely seaside location. The fresh produce really stood out. I visited in early October and was told it can get extremely busy in the summer, so I was fortunate to enjoy a quieter experience. Whether for lunch or any other meal, The Crab Shack is definitely worth a visit if you're in Worthing. For those you need to know, no dogs allowed.

Myself and my partner have been coming here for the past 3 years for our date nights, special occasions, birthdays and anniversaries. This is our go to restaurant for fabulous seafood and wonderful atmosphere. It’s lovely that staff seem to remember us over the years despite perhaps only coming 2-3 times a year on average; they always warmly greet us as though no time has passed since our last visit and offer to place us at our ‘regular’ table at the head of the indoor seating area. It’s lovely, to come here for any situation. The food is always phenomenal. Seasonal changes to the menu and specials always piquing our interest (and tastebuds), but our go to favourites always seem to make a return to the menu which we appreciate too so we’re never left unsatisfied regardless of time of year/season. We highly recommend the crispy squid and cockle and shrimp popcorn for starters, and the korean gochujang hake burger for main. But equally everything we’ve ever had here has been a wonderful dining and taste experience. Don’t skip out on the cocktails and boozy puds too! We ever look forward to our next visit, we only wish we discovered this place sooner! 🦀❤️

When I visit my friend we will always book the crab shack as the food is to die for. We have never had a bad experience. This time I couldn't believe how expensive my bill was £116.05. We know the cost of the fish plate, but the price of the spirits were very very pricey. We had two drinks each. Posh Gin £23 a Diet Coke £5.50. Premium Spirit £17. Note the price of drinks before ordering. Had I known we were getting Posh and Premium spirits I wouldn't of chose those. How can you justify these prices. Especially Coke come on for that price I could of purchased at least 3 litre bottles from even the most expensive supermarkets.

The food was very nice as always. The ‘old school’ prawn cocktail was delicious. The crispy squid portion seemed smaller this time. We were asked if I would like ketchup or mayo for fries. Having answered yes to mayo - a tiny amount appeared in a little paper cup. This was ok but to then be charged an extra 50p on the bill was a joke. Surely this should be included in the service to customers. Little things like this take the edge of a nice meal and quite unnecessary I think

We recently visited the CrabShack and I must say, it was delightful. I am not a sea-food person by any means however, the CrabShack managed to change that with their exquisite ways of preparing & delivering their food. I could have gone for a swim in the atlantic ocean & joined the array of sea-life shortly after consuming the platter they offer on their menu. A friend recommended we visit and boy are we glad we did. Great food matched with caring service.

Having read reviews and as a lover of all seafood, we arrived looking forward to a nice lunch. Our waitress ( and the waiter who brought our orders) were lovely. Our starters of Crispy Squid and Prawn Cocktail were nice, as was our bottle of house white. My wife ordered the prawns and crevettes as a main and I ordered the Sicilian Fish Stew. My wife enjoyed her main and the flavours of the fish stew were great. However, the stew, advertised in the menu as ‘packed with prawns, crevettes and surf clams, actually consisted of three of each, as well as the bream fillet. I mentioned this to the waitress ( without causing a fuss) and she said that she would tell the owner. We finished our meal and wine and despite being in the restaurant for another 20-30 minutes, nobody came to discuss my feedback. We paid our bill and left feeling disappointed and not valued as customers. Unlikely to return

We have been here a few times, this last visit was our first for lunch. Generally good food here, service on this occasion not quite up to usual standard, one of servers was a bit off. I tried the Korean haddock burger as it sounded like a good lunch option, it was generous which made it a bit challenging to eat as a burger, very nice seeded bun, the sauce did make it a bit squelchy to eat, and it was too sweet for my liking.

The food was good the owner was brash and dismissive .. I asked for crispy chips and he said they always are ! They weren’t and I kindly mentioned it, I was ignored! Disgraceful and Charging £45 for lobster, I rest my case.. insult to injury he was carrying a large tray up high with 3 full glasses, he got distracted and dropped the tray. He said it was the wind! The drinks fell next to me and lumps of ice on the floor. I’m disabled and walk with a cane, lumps of ice around my feet and they took so long to clear it all up. I could’ve slipped. He looked down looking if I got splashed and again dismissed what happened and no apology told me I was fine. My jeans and shoes were wert he walked away after he said he didn’t see anything.WOW I will NOT be going there again. I feel vindicated. It ruined my lunch out this is about the owner and my experience.

Very disappointing, had been curious about this place and finally tried it for the first time. Food took over an hour to come out without any warning it would take so long or acknowledgement in between. When we asked them it finally came out a bit later and was very average, lobster roll was £30 and looked like half a roll with a side of sauce. Over priced and over rated, don’t waste your time, walk a bit further to the pier and go to Perch, so much nicer there!

If I could give more stars I would. Lovely staff, fantastic food, interesting drinks choice and surprisingly reasonable prices. Part of our order got delivered to another table - they owned the mistake, made it into a conversation piece, accepted the banter and mickey taking that resulted (and indeed entered into it) and...it didn't matter. I mean, we're not the type to make a big deal out of human error anyway, but the fact that they took ownership rather than making excuses or even lying (as has happened elsewhere) made it just spot on. Loved it. Will definitely go back.

Previously, we decided on the CrabShack Fish Plate for two. It offered a variety of delicious flavors. We were satisfied, so we returned to celebrate my husband's birthday. We had reserved a table in advance. For starters, we chose the mussel and shrimp cocktail (£8). It was good, a nice appetizer. For the main course, my husband and son ordered the Portland Shellfish crab (£23.95), while I opted for the delicious Baked Sole in a lemon and caper butter sauce (450g, £40). The fish was very fresh and incredibly tasty. A wonderful meal. The staff was friendly, helpful but not intrusive. The food, atmosphere, location, and service were excellent. The only slight downside was the lack of prior information about the 10% service charge added to the bill. It's not cheap, but it's worth it. I highly recommend it.

Came for dinner a couple of weeks back. Our whole experience was ruined by the barman - potentially the owner? I order a small wine with soda. When it arrived it tasted strange so I let the waitress know and asked if perhaps tonic or lemonade had been used instead of soda. She took it back to the bar and a man brought it back and quite firmly told me all that was in my drink was wine and soda. I didn't want to make a scene so said ok. When the waitress came back she asked if I was OK and I said well it doesn't taste like usual but just wanted to try and enjoy a very rare date night. She went off and then returned to tell us it was in fact tonic water, that someone had put tonic in the soda by accident or something and passed on the man's apologies. I then got the correct drink which tasted good and was given on the house. The man however didn't come back to apologise, considering he was so quick to come over and tell me I was wrong, it spoke volumes that he didn't want to come back and apologise that there was a mistake. The waitress was really lovely, the food was OK but we won't be returning following this experience.

I visited on Saturday for an impromptu seafood lunch. The staff were really friendly, there was a great vibe in the restaurant, and the food was fantastic. The staff took the time to interact with our autistic daughter, encouraging her to eat her fish (which she did) and rewarding herv with some ice cream. We even tried oysters for the first time which I loved but my wife didn't.

Had a Korean hake burger for a change, It was delicious and would definitely recommend it. Don't go there enough, so we will have to make more effort.

Over-rated, over-priced and rude staff with for too much attitude. This review is based on multiple experiences by ourselves and several neighbours. Took visitors from California there 2 days ago, and they couldn’t believe how bad this place was. It was rather embarrassing for us Despite Crab Shack being local for us, none of us are going back there.

First time here. Just popped in for a quick drink and snack. Seated outside and not great weather but with the awning and heaters it was very pleasant. Blankets were also provided on each chair - nice touch. Just had a lager and popcorn cockles and shrimps. Served with mayo and wedge of lemon. Very enjoyable. Owners are also lovely. Will be coming back with the whole family for something more substantial soon.

Amazing food and chilled atmosphere. The platter for two was worth every penny!

Just returned from dinner at Sea Pearl - and just had to write a review. First impressions were of a beautifully decorated restaurant. We were welcomed at the Bar by two great barmen - and proceeded to order a pint and the best Margarita cocktail I’ve had in a long time. Once in the restaurant, the staff and the food were exceptional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend - and we will be back soon! 😊
