Perch on Lancing Beach in Adur

Fabulous brunch. Food was delicious.Great atmosphere and lovely staff. Highly recommend.

Normally here on a weekend with the wife and dog, nice place to sit down and have something to eat and drink.

Wendy Amazing Top class service We are Coming back

Have only been in twice and I can say amazing the young lady that seated us was so so bubbly and welcoming and both times served by Wendy what an asset these to ladies are to the perch I work in customer services Wendy was fabulous thank you ladies xxx I had the keran chicken burger with then my husband changed his mind and had the same after Wendy's recommendations to try the keran chicken he loved it Wendy came back to check on us she joked and was Awsome ❤️ from Emma 7th April

The best place on the south coast for families and dogs, keep us the good work. We will be back throughout the summer especially a nice summer evening with a pizza on the seafront.

The Best ever Vegan breakfast & everything looks fabulous,great helpful staff❤️👍

Originally Booked for lunch but I called and they were happy to change for breakfast for us. Wow! The food was amazing, so tasty. The view from the restaurant is perfect and the waitress Wendy was very friendly and attentive

Amazing service thank you !!!! Definitely coming back. Wendy 👍👍

Visited yesterday for my sister's birthday. Had booked a window table. Had a coffee while we waited for it to become available. Ordered our food and drinks. Haloumi mushroom brunch dish was exceptional and the salmon bowl was delicious with lots of salmon. A very enjoyable visit.

As always it was a great experience. The food, staff and service were fantastic. Because it was Monday lunch it wasn't too busy and so we could talk quite easily. The one down side is the noise when it's busy. It's really hard to hear or be heard. Need soft furnishings to deaden the sound.

Dionne was great and looked after us really nocely; the food was great, thank you. We'll return!x

Booked on 8 February for Mothers Day paid £80 deposit. Today I asked for deposit to be taken off bill and was told they only hold the money they don’t take it unless we don’t turn up. So paid bill in full but as soon as I got home I checked statement they had taken £80 on 8 February as I said Rang them and one manager said it wasn’t their fault it was the system - no apology just refunded the £80. I said I had been embarrassed in front of family and wanted my tip back as they were not apologetic and didn’t own the problem. Put on to another Manager because they can’t refund my tip. Hayley has said Head Office will sort the tip refund tomorrow. I am a very unhappy customer, everyone please check your bill as they do take the deposit.

Great Sunday roast with friends . Friendly and efficient service by Lily

Lovely time spent. Great views.

Getting better and better, lovely all year but summer time..😍

Just a very pleasant place to enjoy the best of British Coastline. Always a good day when we go there.

Lovely food and attentive staff

What a fab place and dog friendly too!

We had a lovely meal with friends at The Perch. The menu has a large selection to choose from. The staff are always very friendly, and nothing is to much trouble. The atmosphere is always good. The views are amazing. I love my trips to lancing. You can also order a takeaway when you are spending a lovely sunny day at the beach. My favourite has got to be the Fish and Chips. Also dog friendly. I love my visits to Lancing. Thank you

Fantastic service! Lovely meals and gorgeous coffee ! Considering we are Crystal Palace Fans ! Hahaha Thanks so much Josh for your kind service!

The food was delightful. We waited ages for a glass of water and eventually had to ask again. The staff were very friendly Ir was a great atmosphere

Situated on the beach at Lancing this restaurant provides good food and excellent service

8 of us went for lunch, 6 different meals. Everyone really enjoyed their food. I had mussels and I haven't enjoyed a meal out more than this for a while. Absolutely superb, extremely satisfying. Loved it. It was pretty busy but the staff were on it. We were told that it was taking a bit longer to get the meals out because of that but it wasn't that much of a delay really. We like Perch. It's all good, the staff are lovely it's casual and relaxed, the food is excellent and it feels like you get good value too. 5 stars all round

The food was excellent and I really would come back again

Surprisingly nice food, great location

Lovely food steak Arnie was delicious, chicken Caesar impressive. Very friendly staff, great view of the beach

Tasty food, great staff and fab location, what more is there to say!

Been here twice now for lunch after a lovely walk along the beach. Had the chicken bowl both times. OMG it's awesome. Service good, location nice. My son had the burger and said it's one of the best he's ever had! Visited in March '25. Terrible news! Why have they taken the Bang Bang Chicken off the menu? Not happy with that at all. Had the fish n chips, which was just, OK. :(

One of my favourite spots to grab a quick coffee and food.

Needed a place to work for the morning whilst my car was in the garage. The staff were friendly and prompt. Food was great too.

Popped in on off chance for lunch.. Found us a table no probs , served us promptly, food was delicious and your team member Dionne was the perfect host. Exactly what one expects, but rarely gets !😊. Well done Perch.

Really great food and quality service here as always....and the view is fantastic!

We liked the Perch in Worthing, but the Perch in Lancing is much better! Great atmosphere and the food was excellent (massive portion of smoked salmom!). The service was even better!

First crack of Spring and what a treat to be in here on the beach eating the most unctuous mussels! Solid 10 chef, outstanding! Floor team flying around making it look easy, well done 👏

All 5 star but overall let down by not excepting cash. Be nice to have the choice.

My first time to this lovely, dog friendly cafe literally on the beach. Plenty of tables but not squeezed in. Great food, many friendly staff providing service at the table. Pleasant background music. We will definitely go back. My advice would be to definitely book a table once the weather warms up, as this place is sure to be really popular.

We met friends here today and was really happy with our experience- we ordered just before closing of the menu ordering and our food still came out print and hot It was super delicious and really great value for what we paid. We had 2 Korean chicken burgers chips and sides with coffees and sparkling water for just under £40 - amazing! Sadly my puppy was ill whilst we sat chatting after our food and when I helped clean up the mess I was helped by a waitress and thanked. No drama no judgment just kindness Thankyou Thankyou for a lovely two hours

Very good food, staff is professional, helpful and very accommodating. We were a family with a baby and a dog, we felt very welcomed. Killer view, you feel truly at the beach!

Decent food and drink and kid friendly. Pleasant staff providing swift service. Good breakfasts!

Great little cafe/ restaurent. Can get busy. Great views of the sea

Perfect venue after a lovely long walk along the beach. Drunken Mussels were the best!! Great atmosphere service and surroundings

Very busy place but somehow the staff always manage to be smiling, friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and the portion sizes are big too. Perfect for a spot of lunch or just coffee but since it's always packed, it can be quite noisy, so probably not the best for first date but great for family get together :-)

Fantastic food, professional and fabulous service. Not rushed out of the restaurant, ensured I had a wonderful time with old friends. Would definitely return and recommend to anyone.

Great customer service. Really tasty food and plenty of it. Very enjoyable friendly atmosphere

Decent food that took 40 minutes to arrive when we had booked in advance. Lovely staff but a very noisy restaurant.

This is a really nice place in terms of ambience, but if you're disabled it's up a little rise from the green beyond the parking lot. The staff are really lovely, efficient, nice, helpful, really, really helpful. But oh, the food. Oh dear. I had a burger, the meat was tough and weird, the chips were like Mac chips but cold and chewy. We had Mr Whippy ice cream with a Flake which is nice but a lot of chemicals. Overall, it WAS quite cheap, but not cafe cheap, and average for restaurants with better food. Make your own chips and get in some decent ice cream. I'd have been happy to pay a bit more.

Great food and service. Lovely lunch and we have booked again for next month

Lovely Sunday Roast sharing platter. Excellent service & attention from Dionne.

Always enjoy food which if high quality for price Staff very cheerful and polite

This is a super beach cafe in Lancing, casual atmosphere, dog friendly with great views of beach. Food is great - especially the mussels, had steak this time equally tasty! It does get busy so suggest you book!

Very busy when we went, but well organised

Lovely location and very welcoming and friendly staff. Menu selection is good and portions are great.

Great food and vibe with friendly service and spectacular view What’s not to like!

Charlie, our server, was so friendly and cheerful, a credit to The Perch! We had the Felafel and Chicken Caesar salads - both were very delicious and generous portion sizes!

Great place for your mid walk drink

Myself and 4 friends came for a bacon roll and a cup of tea / coffee ..All ordered on one card .....we waited directly outside the entrance due to dogs and a smoking man ... Each bacon roll was delivered every ten minutes and the beverages never arrived ..... They implied that all orders had been delivered , but no response ... Absolute rubbish ...... This place is a victim of its own success ....

This was our forth visit, having been for afternoon drinks, a brunch and a lunch previously. Always a good experience. Friendly and efficient staff, welcoming to our dog and a warm atmosphere as well as a tasty lunch (2 Korean chicken burgers, 1 fish and chips). Good sized portions. Such a lovely spot to enjoy a sudden shock day of sunshine with the sun streaming in through the large windows from across the sea. My only very small complaint is that the cutlery is of a very basic/cheap type and feels a bit rough around the edges, but I guess you probably find it "disappears"!

We had a most pleasurable afternoon at the Perch and enjoyed the Steak Sandwich and a glass of beer. The whole experience was relaxed with fantastic food, Great seaside views and attentive service. We will certainly be back. Many Thanks Kevin Lade

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere and a great location. Attentive and friendly staff. We will definitely return.

The food is good, the portions plentiful and the staff are friendly. Shame about all the dogs. It's like the kennel club in there.

Had a lovely meal here. Nothing was too much trouble, and Dionne went above and beyond for my son, who has allergies, to get him a dessert he could eat. I was very impressed with the service and food. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Super service today by Ebony. A great restaurant with a view second to none.

Thank you for looking after the two old kitesurfers yesterday. I booked a table online and requested a booth. Thank you for saving us one. Service and food were great. See you soon

We booked a table at the Perch on the beach in Lancing with a fabulous view over the sea. Charlotte, our waitress was so lovely and attentive and we all thoroughly enjoyed our food. The menu is certainly interesting and I had the most fabulous falafel salad. The atmosphere was buzzy.

Keep an eye open for the birds at the back. Go feed them. They are super friendly.

Plenty of parking and a seaside walk added to our good feeling about lunch at Perch. The service was absolutely fabulous and the staff seemed genuinely happy to work there. The food was pleasant and there was nothing wrong with it but didn't blow us away enough for a fifth star. Varied menu too. Fast turnaround and no hassling to vacate a table. In summary, a very peasant way to spend a couple of hours with friends.

Delicious food and friendly, attentive service. Dionne, our server, was great and the whole experience was very enjoyable - we'll definitely be back. I also love how dog-friendly the place is.

Second visit for daughters 30th Birthday was really lovely Lily was very attentive and nothing was to much trouble.

Two (both!) ladies toilets out of order -- how is that OK when this place is always very busy, particularly at the weekend. I waited 20 minutes as the only facility available for women was the disabled toilet. Yes, there are cubicles in the Gents but none of the other women, including myself, wanted to use them.

The nicest lunch-out we've had in yonks! Such a lovely welcome, the place was buzzing (glad we'd booked), the food was fantastic, and Dionne looked after us brilliantly; nothing was too much trouble. Although we live 30 miles away, we are already planning our next visit. Lancing, I hope you realise how lucky you are to have this gem perched on your beach.

Great coffee and service as always.

Fabulous tasty hot breakfast. Booked our table 9:30. Lovely coffee. I enjoyed smashed avocado 🥑 on toast with juicy mushrooms, cooked tomatoes 🍅.

Big trucks working hard outside, lots of beach maintenance going on. Loving the perch x

Really nice place for a sunday walk with a dog, plus food and coffee. :)

Lovely seafront cafe/restaurant with easy access by car, foot, cycle & only about 10 minutes walk from Lancing railway station. The food is consistently good along with the service. Dogs are welcome.

Service excellent the food great quality and plenty of it. Totally recommend Perch on Lancing Green..

Visited today for Sunday Sharing Roast as our experience last year was good. Waited at least 30 mins but felt if food freshly prepared should be worth the wait. Today our food was barely warm including gravy, limited veg and sharing meat. Looked a mess on the wooden board. So disappointed, paid but left no tip.Will not be returning for dinner.

Lovely food at reasonable price, good atmosphere and welcoming staff even when busy.

Great menu that has expanded over last few years, with something for everyone. Great for breakfast, brunch or lunch or cake and coffee in the day. The home made sponge cakes are excellent. Great service. Knocked off 1 star as it's quite loud, but really just the sign of a thriving business. Window tables are best on a sunny windy day to watch kite surfing, wind surfers etc. Highly recomnded beach front eatery.

Great place, right on the beach.. breakfast was lovely.. and they serve great beer too!! It is a dog friendly place too

Great friendly service by Dionne

Had a lovely full English breakfast here

On first impressions with so many people and dogs on a very busy Saturday lunch, you think how would they keep things organised but service was efficient, portions good and staff nice. Perfect!

The sticky Asian salmon is amasing.

First visit. Sticky Asian salmon was delicious. The waiting staff were very efficient on a v busy day

We stopped for breakfast on Boxing day, and was very busy as to be expected, a very lively atmosphere. The food was tasty but for a guy who enjoys his food, it was a small portion and really didn't fill me at all. But the real highlight of the visit was the staff, they were very attentive, always looking for ways to make the visit more of an enjoyable and pleasurable experience. Special thanks must go to Dione, who really took care of us. The entire time we was there she did not stop looking for who needed help. Apologies if you read this and I've spelt your name wrong.😁

We came down to try the roasts for a first time and the food was absolutely stunning aspecially beef, staff is always super friendly and efficient, big thank you to Ebony who was looking after us, she's a gem 💎

Always a lovely group of people working there. A nice place to either have a coffee and cake or a pint overlooking the sea Lovely breakfasts too!

Great staff, serving tasty food, at a great location!

I love Perch (long-term visitor, recommended all three Perch's to many) but this morning's visit left a sour taste in my mouth - literally. Ordered for myself and two 'Fruity Waffles' (no menu description) for the kids with coffees and drinks. When they arrived, there was a dollop of greek yohurt on each. I originally thought it was ricotta but it doesn't really matter, my (irrational) toddler wasn't going to touch any of it. I politely explained and asked if it was possible to get a plain waffle for him to chew on. The team member said 'it says on the menu what it is' (it absolutely doesn't - if it did there would be no issue) - and that she'd have to charge me extra. I'm sorry - what!? For the sake of a happy customer, a fed kid and a £30+ bill you can't spare a waffle costing, say, 50p all-in? I shrugged and said don't worry. Surely the aim is to make customers feel valued, full up and happy, not embarrassed (me) and hungry (him). I'm sure this won't affect business one iota, and I'm sure we'll be back but this wasn't the Perch I like so much.

Brilliant place with attentive staff, excellent food and drink.

The staff were warm and friendly. Despite being very busy, they gave us their attention and ensured all our needs were met. Our family orders were served hot and promptly. Well done! *****the sea view was a Bonus☺️

Always had a good meal in the perch and staff are very friendly. Fully recommend.

Boxing day meal at The Perch for the very first time. Absolutely delicious food. The staff were so friendly and attentive. We were updated regarding the delay with our meals......no problem at all. The setting is just wonderful and relaxing. All dietary needs were catered for. Well done everyone. We appreciate how busy you were. Reservation for 4 in the name of Gray.

Really impressed at the food and service for a large party on a busy day of the year. Thank you!

Fantastic Sunday lunch. I’ve had breakfast many times, even festive afternoon tea but first time for the sharing platter roast, wil most definitely be going again, really great roast.

Love this place. Took my mum out for an Xmas Cream tea and she loved it. The service was excellent and really made my mums day. Thank you so much.

Faultless great breakfast and all the waiting staff were freindy and extremely attentative, thank you

Cheered us up on a dreary day. Welcoming staff, tasty food and a buzzy atmosphere. Just the job at this time of the year. Thank you

My wife and I attended this year’s special Christmas dinner event on the 13th December. Hannah and the team were extremely welcoming and helpful, the service as always was impeccable and the food was delicious! The restaurant was fully booked with a great atmosphere - I highly recommend visiting The Perch (not just at Christmas) as it is always excellent!
