Macaris in Arun

Went here for lunch. The drinks were great and the kids' meal was good, but the other 2 meals were not. Soggy pale pasty warmed in the microwave and tastless sausages. If you want a side of chips, sure, but that will cost you £5.95! I won't order food in here again.

Macaris has been a staple in Chichester and other locations in the South for many decades, but was never my cup of tea. Italian café by nature, but British through and through. We only popped in as it was near the train station and my visitor didn’t want to be late. The coffee was not great, (and full price of ‘other well known chains,’) and the clientele were not my usual type either. Sadly the table and fixed bench style seats were too close to the table for me to sit comfortably. Will give this a miss next time. At least I now know! (You have to have a code to access the conveniences as well.. but I can understand why and at least they were clean.) NB I see the Chi branch has now closed for good and has been taken over by Eat. Hope it is improved! (I used to avoid there too…)

On the 27th November. I came in for a coffee and was horrified to see an assault on a gentleman with a learning disability. As far as I could see the gentleman did not deserve to be treated like he was. I could see he just wanted to explain something and was not listened to. I have worked with learning disability a while ago and this was just awful for him to be assaulted by the staff of this place. They need to learn more about diversity. Because of this I doubt I’ll come here again because it was so distressing . I wouldn’t even give you a one but I had to leave something

Have stopped here a couple of times for lunch. Have always been happy with the quality of the food and service. There is a good selection of dishes ranging from sandwiches and salads to traditional lunch time dishes and all day breakfasts. Service is efficient and friendly and the cafe is very clean. Would recommend.

Lots of seating decent cafe menu. Very nice staff. The food is fine for the price - coffee was bit weak for me

Stopped here just for cake and coffee. Everywhere was very clean. Staff friendly. The main meals that we saw being served looked very good. Reasonable prices. Worth a visit if in the area.

Had tea and cake here on Sunday afternoon. Very good strong tea and delicious fresh cake and scones.

It’s most unusual to find a pristine cafe like this in England. It was absolutely spotless. Only went in for a latte. This too was spot on. Highly commendable.

Lovely restaurant great food and friendly staff. Value for money. Would recommend this place to people. Very clean and covid friendly.

Came here after reading all the good reviews on trip advisor, but I’m sure a lot of these reviews are meant for a different place?! We had a coffee, a hot chocolate with some toasted cheese paninis, well the hot chocolate tasted like nesquick, the latte was awful too how people can say it’s better than costa is beyond me. The toasted panini were rubbish too, the cheese didn’t taste like anything except sloppy soap. Spend your money somewhere nicer than this stuck in the 80’s cafe.

I have been going to Macaris for a number of years. I used to be at the end of my cycle ride but now it's on my mobility scooter. I have found the staff very helpful and kind. I like their coffee it is the best in town , I wouldn't go to any other coffee house

A lovely large cafe with plenty of indoor seating as well as limited outside, that sell a great range of breakfasts, lunches, sandwiches & snacks plus an impressive range of delicious looking cakes as well as hot & cold beverages, the service is polite & they also sell a range of ice cream flavors in warmer seasons, i ordered a large coffee with a rum baba which i haven't seen anywhere for years, unfortunately it didn't have any flavor of rum to it, it was just sitting in a sweet sugary liquid, my coffee was hot but far too milky, next time i'll know to ask for strong.

Budget breakfast would be an understatement. Be warned, its distinctly average , not particularly cheap and the food is moderate at best , cheap sausages, 1 piece of bacon. The place itself reeks of a 1980's wannabe american diner, the icing on the cake, (not that'd i'd of eaten that) was one of the workers carrying the rubbish right past us as we ate. AVOID!

I decided to have the bacon, egg, chips and beans with some extra toast, which according to the menu was supposed to include two fried eggs, but I only got one. In addition the chips weren't anything special and I didn't finish them. All in all this place is basic fare cooked in a fairly average manner - there are better places in Bognor that cost less.

Macaris has always been a "must-do" place to meet up with friends. The service and knowledgeable staff make a visit to Macaris extremely memorable !

Reminded me of family holidays back in the sixties! Old style cafe with simple food which obviously the locals like as it always seems busy.

The staff here are lovely, the seats are comfy, high level of hygiene, wide variety of food. Generous servings of tea.

Fish was tasteless fish inside was watery and the batter was like eating grease, chips were over cocked, was well over priced for what I was served and the quality of the food, my friends fry up was also tasteless, his desert was missing Knicker from his Knickerbocker glory

Came in a couple of times for coffee while in Bognor in February 2019. Pleasant and quick service.Nice tasting Latte as well.Plenty of seats but was quite full both times,i imagine its packed in the summer.To use the toilet,you will need to get the door code from the staff.a very clean place

The staff has got a great service and atmosphere. Coffee tastes better than in Costa. Food exellent. Excellent prices.

Very nice coffee no difference to Costa or Nero but less expensive food reasonable prices ,fantastic atmosphere ,staff very nice .

I was looking for an all-day breakfast and a place to read my Sunday paper.

Food ok nothing special, ok for coffee, but that's as far as it goes, many better places for a meal and cheaper

Oh its not the Ritz, the restaurant's shape, long and narrow,dictates its format with a counter along one side.

Jacket potatoe was hard not cooked plus not enough cheese wouldn’t use this place again plus over priced

I had a late breakfast, I walk with a walking stick. The staff were very helpful they took my tray to the table and brought my breakfast to me, which is not part of the service. The food was good, the sausage could of been a better quality. For £5.95 overall it’s okay, the restaurant is busy with all.

Macaris is a very popular cafe in Bognor town centre that serves a wide variety of food and beverages at very reasonable prices. The food is simple, but nice enough - good value for money.

I have to say super disappointed that the only food they sell is fried. Not everyone wants grease with everything. Fairly busy staff not as friendly if your not local so avoid if your a tourist.

I was really looking forward to having the Cod and chips and after ordering it when I went to pay they said they had ran out so I had to change my order to sausage chips and beans and then had to wait 20 mins for our food. The chips were frozen chips and you have to get up and collect your own food when they shout your number and we weren’t given any napkins. If you need to use the bathroom you have to find a staff member to ask for a number to type in so you can get in,

Undrinkable coffee. Food mediocre. Not to my taste but a lot of people seem to like it and sit outside

Lovely spot for a coffee, outside seating in good weather in the shopping precinct where you can watch the world go by. Ideal for snacks, light meals.

We had 2 sausage rolls today in Macaris Bognor and after eating a couple of mouthfuls we noticed that they were both extremely mouldy. Stupidly took them back and got our money back but realised we should have kept them. I asked several times for them and even offered to get them from the bin but to no avail. Have contacted the appropriate people to get them to act on my behalf. Will never step foot in there again.

So good to have a coffee that is not your run of the mill national brand chain. Great staff great coffee.

My fiance has been here a few times, when she has had day trips, but this was my first time and I was actually very impressed.

I returned to bognor once again as everyone loves a seaside town for their little cafés and to people watch the local residents.

When you walk in, you are greeted with the old style supermarket cafe approach ie grab a tray and go past the selection pastries, cakes and sandwiches. Hot food available from menu. When we got to the order point we were greeted by a polite young lady however when we moved to the next station to pay the lady looked incredibly frustrated with us for taking too long to order. I gave her our order ticket to put through the till. At the same time one of her colleagues started waving a sausage roll around, which we had ordered. I informed her that it was ours. She then proceeded to talk to us as if we were at school going on about how it was not on the order ticket and that we should of told her. I really don't see how this was our mistake. change of career or retirement maybe needed.

Ze hebben heerlijke koffie en cappuccino met cake. Jammer dat de voordeur niet sluit want met deze temperaturen kan je met je jas aan binnen zitten. Maakt het niet gezelliger. Vriendelijke bediening.

Ordered a cappuccino. It came but was absolutely scorching hot. Anyone who knows how to make coffee knows that it should be almost drinkable as soon as it’s made.

After visiting Macaris in worthing having excellent coffee and service expected the same in Bognor gosh was I disappointed. Whole place smelt of fish staff moody. Coffee insult to call it coffee absolutely disgusting poured out of a jug. Please learn how to make proper coffee. Asked to speak to manager as wanted refund was told no refund and didn't like my attitude. Small man big ego. My next email is to environmental health place needs shutting down for a complete clean and a professional to come and show them how to make coffee and customer service.

The previous time when we visited in April we had a good meal but this time when we visited last week it was disappointing. We had bacon and egg sandwiches on wholemeal bread. The bacon had no flavour and the fat was white and looked uncooked. The eggs had a brown crisped layer on the bottom which was inedible and we had to remove. The bread was strangely very sweet in taste which did not complement the savoury contents. The sandwich had not even been sliced in half. Staff were not as friendly and welcoming as we remembered. Disappointing and disconcerting. Was it an 'off day'?

I’m surprised by this very normal cafe engendering such strong and vicious criticisms from some reviewers. The service was pleasant and very efficient. Lots of room; plenty of tables and booths. It had a slightly vintage/retro feel. The food was quickly served . We just had BLT and veggie breakfast both were very good and the BLTwas better than one we had served in a cutesy cafe in posh Arundel a few. Days after.

This pathetic excuse of a cafe is the single most revolting place I have ever had the misfortune to walk into in my whole life. Should be shut down asap.

served exactly what I asked for efficiently. good flavour and atmosphere within the shop. staff did a good job.

Cafe with loads of cakes and cafe food. Help self and pay at end of order. Ordered bacon batch, drink, 3cakes and 2hot drinks. £12. Quick service. On the hight Street. Cake was lovely and massive slice. Batch was nice. All cakes were worth the money. Toilet for customers only on a code so public can't use. Well worth money and staff was ok.

Servers notice their regulars which was nice to see. Friendly place. Food is nice. This place has toilets but you need to get the code from a staff member.

We tend to use Macaris whilst shopping in Bognor. Broad spread of food all cooked satisfactorily. Cost is good. But don't confuse it for a restaurant, it really is just a cafe, one step up from a greasy spoon.

I was so disappointed FROZEN SHAPED fish .The staff were unhelpful .I would never recommend anyone to eat here .I expected at the sea side not to have to ask "Is the fish fresh or frozen" so bad I couldn't eat it !!!!!!!!

So from the outside we thought this place looks pretty decent.....how wrong we wereTea-weak as wee(can't swear)Sausage-anemicBubble and squeak-frozen disc of poohBacon-more salt on this than in a salt potMushrooms-small pieces of poohBeans-cold and tastelessHash brown-only decent thing(sort of)My advice do not eat in this establishment

First and last visit. Moody staff really shows on the service. Not even a smile so didn't really feel welcoming. Food ok. Not the best quality could have presented better. Not coming back here again.

Don't be fooled at first glance, disguised fast food café serving frozen food cooked in fat fryer.Avoid battered cod at all costs, served over cooked obviously frozen "fish ? cod" awful.Overpriced self service.

Coffee - not great ... piss weak actually, & as an earlier wrote, made up in large containers & heated with steam.Breakfast - probably the worst I've had in Bognor .... fried slice was awful, sausages were cheap & tasteless.Won't be going back!

Visited here with family on a day out in Bognor. Was very busy when we visited but service was reasonably quick and staff were helpful and friendly. Good menu options for young and old alike.

Visited for a breakfast meeting here and was shocked by the whole experience, they make coffee by having a large amount made up already in large open metal containers ( this looks like instant coffee) and they heat this up using steam and then just serve this to you! They also have a large metal jug of milk and keep reheating this for every cup of coffee, no new milk each time and after being reheated multiple times you can tell in the taste! For the breakfast we was shocked to have to pay for sauce sachets?! The breakfast was very small and very bad quality, the bacon was very fatty and was so dry and chewy. The sausage was also horrible with chewy lumps in, there was pre made frozen bubble and squeak and mushrooms wasn't even prepared by cutting the storks off they was left on and very hard to eat! The place also had a smell of urine on our visit. There is so many other nice options around Bognor and do not understand how this place is still in business!

We were looking for somewhere to have lunch and came across Macaris in Bognor town centre. We liked the look of it and it wasn't busy. You have to order at the desk and when the meal is ready you have to go and collect it.The food was good and big portions. Good value and plenty of room to accommodate my grandsons wheelchair.

Five of us visited ordering various ice creams and hot drinks to sit-in with. Once we had poured milk into two coffees we found something moving about in the bottom of the milk jug as well as something horrible looking stuck to the inside wall of the milk jug. Went and stood in queue for 5mins to then have the cashier look very puzzled when we explained what had happened and asked if we could have two fresh coffees. Luckily a supervisor/manager overhead, apologised and made us fresh ones. This time, there was a short hair floating in the milk; luckily this time we noticed before we used it. Yet again, another near 5min wait in queue to get fresh milk. After all the messing about the coffees were nice. Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy our ice cream sundaes very much as we were put off by the not one, but two, dirty milk incident. Cafe wasn’t overly busy with lots of empty tables. Service was very slow.

This isn't a greasy spoon restaurant it's much better than that.Yes you can get an all day breakfast but the menu is more varied than that, sandwiches, toasties, jacket potatoes etc. The food was presented well enough and was quite tasty. The price was fair and we left full.This isn't Prett or costa so don't expect that when you come in. The dated interior was part of the charm of going in.

This is a convenient cafe on the London Road in the centre of the shopping centre. Despite being busy, the service was fast and friendly. We had bacon and egg sandwiches which were hot and flavoursome. The bill came to about £9 which we felt was good value. The cutlery and plates were very clean. A useful pit stop which we shall visit again.

Avoid cod and chips because they served me frozen battered fish that was not cod. The tomato sauce is awful and the coke is definitely not genuine Coke or Pepsi. Plenty of space and friendly staff.

They have a huge selection of cakes that are rather largeThey sell, breakfast, burgers,baguettes, Toasties,paninis,pastries and sundaes.And a selection of hotels drinks. In the front of the shop they sell ice cream for hot days.They have very kind staff. When your food is ready the person on the counter makes an announcement on a speaker saying that your food is ready to collect.The toilets here have a lock on hem so only costumers of the cafe can use it

We often pop in here for coffee when we are visiting Bognor Regis. Today we had lunch here. The food counter contained a good range of sandwiches and cakes and there was also a large selection of hot food. Service was quick. Staff were friendly and efficient and the food was hot and tasty.

Found this cafe over 15yrs ago when on a weekend break at butlins, it's now our coffee stop every year before shopping when we're at butlins

The service was very slow and they did not like that I paid by card. Its very crowded and expensive!

A busy coffee shop . Unfortunately the coffee is below average, just like the service. They offer a large selection of cakes , pastries and ice cream and mediocre hot food , all of which is extremely overpriced for what they offer.

We went in for a coffee and cake!! It felt like I was in a 1970 BHS restaurant! The cafe is dated in its appearance and needs to be up dated. I found it odd that it's cakes are covered in cling film including the cheese cake. The prices were good value and the service was fine so it was not all bad. The food was okay but nothing amazing

I went for a coffee to this cafe for a change... Dont bother I asked for a coffee.. the waitress got it from a warm pot by the side of the coffee machine and topped it up by heating it with the steamer.It was awfull and it was £2.50 ... I was so taking aback nearly speachless .I should of complained. I could tell that they were not interested. But I will never go again. ever

Looks a lot better than it is. £5.95 for full English, it was tiny. The coffee was weak and on top of that the sauce was 5p a sachet. Bubble and squeak was a joke. Tiny pre frozen thing. I wouldn't use it again at all. We were totally ripped off.

Plenty of cakes etc to entice you in for a coffee or breakfast etc. In this instance, unfortunately, first impressions are not met by the actual experience here.Weak coffee, I say this because my partner and I had different coffees, one supposedly fresh ground and they both tasted the same ! Poor and expensive. Milk for an Americano was cold. Ask for a sweetener and the young lady at the till hovers a 'click' dispenser over your tray and asks "which one".Order a hot cooked item and you are called back to the counter to collect it yourself. Tables were not being cleared quickly. Not a good experience at all, in fact one I recommend you miss and go elsewhere for a less profit, customer service and value for money service.

Popped in out of the rain and was impressed with their creamy coffee and huge choice of cakes. Clean and friendly place for a hot drink and rest.

What a great place, really warm friendly welcomePlenty of seatingBright light and airy A really good choice on the menuWe were there for breakfastOrder, pay and grab a table then when it's ready they call out your ticket number so you can head up and collect your foodReally nicely prepared and very tasty

Breakfast was disgusting sausage was pale beans were only warm,they served the toast with butter portions,but where the toast and breakfast was hot the portion when opened just run like fluid, when asked was everything alright, and I replied no , the waitress continued without acknowleging me. Older generation establishment, not for young I rate it as well as my coleagues 3/10

Great selection on the menu. Lots of seating inside and outside. Clean and roomy. Efficient service. Very polite staff. Generous portion sizes. Great value for money. Family friendly. Enough space for wheelchair access at the lower end of the cafe however did not notice whether the toilets were accessible or not.

I've visited Butlins with family for years and we always stop off in this popular cafe when visiting Bognor town centre. On this occasion, my family all chose coffees and I chose my usual banana milkshake which I enjoyed very much - nice and thick! Yum!Macaris has a varied menu, there's certainly lots to choose from and at reasonable prices too. Simple food, but delicious! Large portions - who can complain at that?!We'll see you next year, we've already booked our next holiday!

While on holiday in the area 4 of us stopped here for coffee ( originally ). It was my first visit, return visit for the rest of the family.Upon arrival you can clearly see they are doings something right. Many tables,se with chairs, some with comfy looking sofas and arm chairs. Really nice atmosphere all around. The place was packed. We were lucky enough to find ourselves a table. We came for coffee, but seeing all the great looking food around us we decided to have light lunch as well.We opted for some sandwiches and weren't disappointed. Freshly made to order, lovely bacon and fried egg, very quick considering how busy it was. Service was really friendly, efficient and helpful. However I believe one of the main points of this business is a coffee and that is where I have to go for average. I am coffee lover and regularly train my staff in how to make a good coffee. Therefore being served late the way we were was very disappointing. There were 4 jugs next to the coffee machine. One with milk, one with coffee, one with chocolate and the last empty. Nothing was fresh, everything reheated many times. If you know how coffee and milk react on steamer you can imagine how it looked and tasted. Coffee without any flavour, milk completely burner by constant reheating... I won't go further, but simply poor. The banana milk shake we ordered has never seen a banana, flavouring was just a liquid siting in the plastic bottle. Artificial and not what I expected.All in all the place has a potential. It already is one of the best in town. With some coffee training and using fresh ingredients it could be the best. And I would not mind to pay more for better quality. I am sure there are plenty people who will appreciate it as well and won't mind go deeper to their pockets :)

This cafe does what it does very well. It does not do haut cuisine but what it does it does quickly and cheerfully, most of cafe regulars are on the menu, plenty of choice of cakes etc. A good spot to break one's shopping.

For a quick breakfast or café this place is actually a good point to sit down. I'm visiting actually this place quite often, because their hot chocolate and mocha are much better than any other place I've been in Bognor Regis. Breakfast is also a good option there for - Traditional English, that you can order fully set, or either you can freely change items between any others from menu. Prices are actually fair. I don't remember her name, but about 40yo lady with black medium length hair is absolutely great. She has a sense of humour, when it's not busy, she keeps on extra tasks while talking to customer, and also very helpful with disabled people. You should hire more staff like she!

Good service, helpful & pleasant staff. Typical coffee house, tables outside if preferred. Can choose your strong/weak coffee. Can relax without feeling pressure to leave when meal finished.

Service was good and all staff friendly . Unfortunately the food wasn't up to much ; I had the pasty, quality was low with no taste or flavour . Seemed the sort of place the older generation will come back to again and again . I won't

Their breakfast uses the cheapest lowest quality ingredients one could buy and other than a friendly waitress their were no redeeming features. The sausage was clearly made of reclaimed meat slurry (totally inedible), the bacon was dried up and no flavour except salt), the egg yolks were pale in colour and not enjoyable.left mine along with the sausage. The so called has bubble and squeak was a tiny factory produced patty. Toast used cheapest white supermarket bread. I actually felt ripped off as had to leave most of mine. Such a shame as there are many other places nearby for example the London Road Cafe who produce far better quality breakfasts using quality ingredients with table service at a not dissimilar price. Quite honestly I am amazed this place survives and I certainly won't be back. Even the coffee not great (and served in a glass), no thanks.

A rare visit to this once pioneer of great coffee and their famous knickerbockerglory problem is where others have moved on in the town macaris have stayed the same if it's 70s nostalgia your after would probably give 5 stars but although still very popular with the loyal locals. If you are visiting the town I would go for one of the many other options.

Looked out for somewhere to have coffee and cakes after shopping in the town and called in here as it was the first cafe we saw. We were not disappointed with anything. I understand it is a well-established place and it shows! Staff were friendly and efficient and the variety of food on offer is extensive. There is ample seating inside and on the front pavement. One wonders why the National coffee companies bother to open up in this town when the competition is as good as this establishment.

The staff were efficient and helpful. Best hot chocolate I have had in years. It was a shame we didn't have time to go back to have a lunch.

Loads of seating - inside and out.great range of drinks and cakes.....good choice on hot/cold food too.very quick and polite service!!brilliant

Four of us went into Macaris 30/01/2016 ordered 2 x steak and onion , I x Coronation chicken baguettes, and a cheese and onion Toasted sandwich on brown along with 4 coffees : Service at the counter was great ,was busy but the staff managed the queue and we were soon seated.Food arrived in two shakes of a lambs tail and we were all very soon munching away on very tasty fare.Couple of minors : Short on serviettes and our waitress cleared our plates away while one member of our party was still eating and was left with nowhere to put the crust of her toasty but on the table.Without doubt would go again food was great and such a wonderful selection.

On a regular basis I visit for their coffee and Eccles cakes. It is always clean, tidy with a great atmosphere. The staff are always helpful

I used to have coffee here every Saturday afternoon with friends when I was a teenager and Macari's is still my favourite in Bognor. Run by the same family all these years. They do food of all sorts and drinks.

A well established coffee shop that offers a good menu. Located in the centre of Bognor Regis its a good quality place to pop in for a tea/coffee or lunch when out shopping.

mainly a coffee shop with a small food selection , overall the coffee was really nice but a little expensive ....( just my opinion on prices )

Variety of options reasonably priced. I had cottage pie which was ok but a bit chewy in places. My friend had a sandwich which looked ok.

The staff here always work very hard to get people served. You never have to wait very long to get your coffee, which is great by the way, or your food which is prepared for you as ordered.There are a selection of ready made items sitting on show (covered of course) but if you want a fresh hot meal that can be done too.Well organized, clean, tidy, whats not to like, its a cafe, and a blooming good one in our view.Outstanding service and smooth running even when very busy and packed out. A credit to the management and well worth a visit.

Does tea and coffee. The food is served hot, basic mirowave type food. Staff are always friendly. Not a bad place to go, but nothing outstanding.

Great central location with a wide range of reasonably priced snacks and meals, seating a little crammed in but not an issue. Food very tasty but the worst coffee I have ever tasted anywhere, not sure if this is just a one off as other reviewers have said opposite. The toasties are jam packed with fillings and I would definitely recommend

Staying at Butlins, we chose to eat off site and found Macaris in town and decided to have lunch.It is an extremely large eatery with plenty of space for all, especially our wheelchair bound family member.Havign never eaten there before, the staff were very friendly and helpful in terms of being able to be seated, what to order, and where things were. Every question I asked was answered with a smile.Once ordered, the fod is freshly cooked and prepared for you, and when it is ready your order number is announced over a tannoy - feels a bit like being at the Bingo, but it works well.The chef who prepared our food could see that I couldn't carry it all in one go, so he helped me bring it back to the table, and even brought condiments for us. This was done without me asking, and I was quite prepared to make 2 trips to get our food, but he was very insistent that he help me - top class service!Prices were reasonable for the food that we had, and it was all fresh and not kept warm on a hotplate waiting to be dished out.The place was busy, but we were only kept about 7 minutes from ordering the food to it being served, and this is commendable.The premises were clean and we noticed that it had a 5* rating for food hygiene - always comforting to see when eating somewhere new!Well done - if we are in the area again, we will be visiting you!If you are visiting the area, then pay a visit - you won't be disappointed!

As a resident of Bognor, my husband and I like to have the occasional cup of coffee whilst out shoppint, or for a treat.We find we get excellent service from a very polite staff, we like the Latte, you can order different sizes, and it is always freshly made for you. and very enjoyable. The cake selection is to die for, and their meals also look very good.This restaurant is family owned and managed, and they work very hard, and well deserve to keep their custom.Well .done.Beryl and Edward Shepperd

Had a lovely coffee and cake here, clean and welcoming restaurant. All of the family enjoyed the food. Jacket potatoes with chili recommended

Escaped from Butlin's and came across Macaris, thinking! in need of a good cup of coffee and a slice of cake, not disappointed this establishment provided it to my satisfaction.

My wife and I decided to try this restaurant for a change. Ordered Cottage Pie, Chips and Peas there was hardly any mince in the cottage pie mostly mushy potato and the chips quite frankly I thought it was disgusting and it was not cheap. It was hot though we had Orange and Lemonade with it grand total of £17. Certainly would not go to this restaurant again the food is not up to standard compared to others in Bognor.

I have been coming to macari' s for about twenty years and it is the best restaurant in Bognor.Lovely staff,food very good,always happy to help you.Recently refurbished to excellent standard.Price is reasonable.Family run business.

Been to Macaris a few times now over the year with my Mum, and we enjoyed the food and drinks every time we feel like eating there. Good food/drinks, decent prices. Can't really fault anything so over all Macaris is a very good place to eat at.

Coffee is excellent, shame the place does not look very clean, could do with a complete renovation and staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Macari's is your traditional family cafe and a firm favourite of mine. My son finds that their kids' portions are totally right form him and always finishes his plate, which is a plus for us as he can be very fussy. The family who run it and staff can not do enough for you, everyone is very helpful and they have a kind word for everyone. I have used it since for all sorts of occasions, from work meetings, family lunches to catch up over coffee with friends and have always been consistently happy with everything. They do a hazelnut coffee to die for :-). It's not a 4 star dining experience but then neither does it pretend to be. Altogether absolutely honest, a pillar of the Bognor regis community and many of the people who live there would probably find them really wanting of a good meeting place if macaris' was not there. Oh and they have free WIFI...
