We booked to have lunch before going to see Oliver at the Festival Theatre as it was nearby. We were shown to seats etc and presented with menus which was typical pub food. We were six and were immediately offered individual bills which most eateries don’t even if you ask. When the food came I can say that the plates were hot, the portions were generous and well cooked. Fresh vegetables were served separately, the chips were crispy and soft inside. Who needs a Michelin chef with well cooked pub food. Recommend the ginger sponge for pudding if you have room. Service was good and the staff were helpful and cheerful. Give it a try!

Lovely venue, lovely staff however food a big let down. Only 5pm and they had run out of the tomato and mozzarella salad. Mozzarella sticks x2 starter ok. Chicken leak and ham pie was burnt, mashed potato was really lumpy. Scampi and chips was ok, just frozen stuff fried . With two cokes £50. Would drink there if local however won't eat there again. I think there are better options in Chichester and this thrives on its closeness to the theatre.

We came from over 150 miles away to the Chichester Festival, and chose this pub to eat at based in it's reviews. Not going to lie, when we pulled up outside we wondered what we had done, but upon walking in everything changed. We were greeted with a jolly chap asking whether we had come from or were going to the theatre, so he could prioritise our order, the choice of food was good so there was something for everyone. I am not a vegetarian but I opted for the Butternut squash and chickpea curry on recommendation from the waitress, and she was sooooo right, it was absolutely delicious and very obviously home made, and I managed somehow to squeeze in a bread & butter pudding for dessert. My friends had the Burger and said it was the best they had ever had, and the homemade slaw was super tasty and fresh. There is not really any parking at the venue but it is directly opposite a massive reasonably priced huge carpark. I would 100% recommend eating here.

One of the best pubs I have been in anywhere. Good honest pub grub, not expensive, a good selection of wines and ales and such a friendly welcoming place. I was in the area for work over the weekend, and popped in on Sunday night for a drink on the way back to my digs. Not knowing there was a quiz on, I found a table and sat alone to watch the action, I was then asked by the landlady if I wanted to join a team and had a great night. Highly recommended

This is a pub at the very heart and soul of Chichester. One of only two pubs to survive the slum clearances after world war 2. The other is The Rainbow, if you are a first time visiting to Chichester go to both. history is fleeting don’t miss these places. A good service from friends the first time you meet and need them. They have games and a patio. Can I say again , this is a classic public house . Go to it before it is gone

We booked The Bell inn for a pre-theatre Dinner and was delighted with the experience. I must firstly praise the welcome, the two ladies covering the arrivals and food service were so friendly, attentive and professional we felt at home straight away. The menu is fairly simple but very well thought out so all tastes covered. There is an art to getting this right and The Bell has it spot on. Not having so many options meant the food was prompt, well cooked, hot, plentiful and very tasty. Add to this their very fair pricing, we left having had our faith put back into a British pub meal out (which has been lacking recently). The pub is very well run and I wish them continued success, they deserve it.

We'd only been in the pub for a drink before. A few weeks ago we popped in before a Chichester RFC rugby match. Our group was made so welcome that my partner and I decided to book a pre theatre dinner. I'm so glad we did. The food was excellent, tasty fresh and I would guess local. The service was wonderful throughout even though the dining area filled up with pre theatre guests who were all served efficiently to a specific pre-show timescale. Well done the staff of The Bell Inn. We will be back. I recommend booking as I can imagine this quality pub can become very busy.

Came in today, sat in the beer garden as it was nice weather. The staff were friendly, the menu was really small not a lot to choose from on the main meals. I went for the burger it was ok not the best quite greasy . Edit response: I did not leave a clean plate I left half of the burger I didn’t feel like saying something to the waitress because the rest of the meal was fine. You need to take in what these reviews are saying because every bad review u have u respond with the same answer. And take responsibility for your own problems.

Three of us booked a 5.30pm table prior to visiting the nearby theatre. I must say, we enjoyed the whole experience from start to finish. Nice staff, a relaxed atmosphere, well kept drinks and lovely food. I had the chicken/ham & leek pie which was tip top. My wife ate the poached haddock which she stated was one of the nicest she had tasted. The chips & vegetables were cooked to perfection. My Mum had the salmon dish. She 'complained' that the salmon wasn't very warm but in my honest opinion, this was probably due to her slow eating as opposed to any lack of skills or attention from the chef! Would definitely return.

Unpretentious but well cooked food - we ordered the rib eye steak and grilled fish of the day. The seasonal vegetables and sweet potato chips were delicious. Sharing a starter and dessert plus a couple of drinks brought the bill to under £60. Very good value.

Afternoon chips and beer, very busy, parking can be tight, area to side, hard to see, small area adjacent to front entrance where a small terrace of tables are located, chips with diesel! Chips and cider were excellent The inside is quirky, well laid out with a lot of local history posted on the walls.

Popped in for lunch following a walk to the Halnaker Windmill. Managed to get the last table available. I had the "lunchtime" size fish and chips with tartare sauce and mushy peas and my partner had the gammon, egg and chips. Both were very good. The "lunchtime" size fish and chips was a perfect size. My partner then had the crumble and ice cream and I had a mini version with custard and a flat white coffee. All very good too. Friendly staff and a great menu. A good selection of alcohol free beers. Definitely one to visit again when in the area, would book in advance.

We often visit this Greggs whilst shopping in Chichester as their sausage rolls are the best. As I don’t drink dairy milk, in the past I’ve always had soya in little cartons. My husband asked for oat milk (my favourite) and to my pleasant surprise Greggs now offer oat milk as an alternative. So my order was for an Americano with oat milk on the side. My husband also mentioned “on the side”. This is because I don’t take much so need to add it myself. So when the lady served an Americano with oat included (frothed up, yuk) (Since when does an Americano have warm frother milk in it?) I said, no I ordered oat milk on the side. Stroppy cow said she didn’t hear that (we said it twice) and that anyway they don’t serve oat milk on the side. So I’ve paid for a coffee that I can’t drink as it’s too milky. I really expected her to say “sorry madam, let me do another one for you”. I mean, for the sake of customer satisfaction, just pour it away and serve me what I’ve asked for! Is it too much to ask to have oat milk on the side? This is a first for us. Every other coffee establishment we visit serves it cold, and on the side when asked. She has no customer skills at all. A right stroppy cow. We were disgusted.

We popped in without a reservation on a Saturday lunchtime and luckily they had a table for us. The pub was buzzing with happy people, clearly lots of locals too which is always a good sign. We had three courses - hadn’t planned to but the food was just soooo good! The prawn cocktail was the best we’ve ever had, and mains were delicious. OH had sea bass and I had lambs liver. Both served piping hot and with fresh veg. One of my main beefs is when food isn’t hot enough. Not so here, well done Berkeley Arms. The sticky toffee pudding was to die for too. We live 20 mins away but we’ll most definitely be back!
