I’d just like to touch on the last review, We went to the Continental today and it is now table service, The food was lovely and the produce is of good quality. Although the previous owners will be missed for their years of service down Warwick Street, the food and coffee has been much improved and we will definitely be going back. On offer today was a full menu I believe. Including full English breakfast, a good range of sandwiches and toasties. Tasty burgers and an amazing selection of sweets, cakes and pastries in the cabenit to choose from. Very well done to the new owners and your friendly staff!!

The lovely previous owners have taken a well rewarded retirement. One reason why we loved going to this cafe was the waitress ordering and excellent hosts. Sadly, after visiting today it seems waitress service is no longer and, like a number of other similar establishments, it's counter ordering. However, the order is brought to the table. Very friendly new staff still finding their feet with a reduced menu on offer at the moment, which is understandable. Good luck to the new owners, there's a lot of competition, maybe they will reconsider their decision not to offer waitress ordering.

Lunch was an absolute delight we stopped here because I had a craving for “mac n cheese” and it was on their menu board. My husband decided on a burger, we asked for a jug of water we received a cold bottle and 2 glasses with ice, most welcome as it was a very warm on Tuesday 16th September. We were advised the burger would take a little while, when it arrived it was worth the short wait. It was was beautifully cooked and plated. My Mac n Cheese although not a conventional take on the dish was lovely, it was accompanied by a salad which was delicious, on my husbands plate they put coleslaw, usually I am the happy recipient, for the first time in the 48 years we have been married ate it all, it was that good. The only jiggle was that no contact details were taken, this didn’t occur to us until we were on our way home. Will definitely be returning.

Drinks and food is brilliant but no one asked us for our contact details which was worrying. People came and went and no one left their details.

With such a large selection of Cafes in Worthing our choice was mainly dictated by a free table in the sun, but we stumbled upon a gem. Very friendly service and a great breakfast, would highly recommend

Our first visit was due to a heavy shower,we intended to have a coffee and pastry however on noting the food being served and the reasonable prices we decided to take lunch, this resulted in a further visit this week. We were also very impressed by the staff who without exception were so helpful and pleasant. The Continental has been added to our list when visiting Worthing

This reminds me of a cafeteria, but the food is so good! It's not fancy, but it's good honest food. Coffee is okay, but the excellent friendly service, and blue cheese and bacon sandwiches is what I'm there for. Exceptionally well priced too. When you just want something simple to eat, this is the place to be. Nothing fancy, but good tasty food!

I have visited the Continental quite a few times for lunch with a friend, this is our cafe of choice, there's a very good range on the menu, the sandwiches are excellent, I like the bucket of chips which I find quite novel, the chips are very nice and crunchy not soggy at all, the coffee here is really nice too. All of the staff are friendly and very helpful. Price wise this isn't bad at all, worth a visit for a nice relaxing lunch.

I went the The Continental for lunch on a Saturday. I had a grown up fish finger sandwich! This came as requested on granary bread with a generous portion of coleslaw, small salad garnish and a mug of chips. My partner had a Brie and bacon panini with chips and a salad garnish. Both dishes were well prepared and cooked. The fish fingers were very large and juicy and there was butter on the sandwich not margarine. The bacon was lean and well cooked. The service was brilliant. The servers were polite and friendly and the eating area clean and tidy.

I always prefer to support local independent businesses rather than the big chains, so thought I'd give this place a try on a Saturday lunchtime. Oh dear.....had to wait a long, long time for my panini to arrive, and when it did, it was a massive let-down. It cost £5.80 think about it, £5.80......the tuna was scraped so thinly over the bread, it was dry and tasteless. I know all about portion control and profit margins, but this was ridiculous. No excuses for such a poor effort.I also got the impression that the staff didn't really know what they were doing, as noted elsewhere, plenty of tables were left cluttered with dirty cups and plates, while waitresses wandered around, seemingly oblivious.Shame, as I say, I prefer to support independents, but they need to get their act together fast.

We came here as our usual place was closed for the day and so we thought we would try somewhere new. The outcome came into the category of really nice, but we would not come here in place of where we usually go. We each had a baguette and a coffee/hot chocolate. Baguettes were fresh, quite full of fillings and tasty. Drinks were quite good. Service was friendly and polite, and the cafe was very clean. We enjoyed our visit, there just wasn't a wow factor to make us think of returning. Pricing was reasonable and in line with other Worthing cafes.

We don't often stop for a cuppa in Worthing town centre, but decided to try one of the many cafes in Warwick Street today. This café looks the most inviting from outside, and it was lovely and clean inside too, even though it was very busy. Friendly service, and good value for money - cappuccino, pot of tea & 2 rounds of toast came to £5.55.

I only stopped for a coke here (friend had a coffee.) But we were left in peace to have a natter and catch up. Smoking seemed to be Ok too for friend. (Ashtrays provided.) I did not venture inside as friend went in and ordered everything. A good, clean fresh looking place to sit - and not over priced like some other cafes on same street. Only minor annoyance was the group of middle aged guys sitting at the entrance talking rather loudly. (It seemed to be their local hang out.) But would go again.

Thought me luck was in as I approached the table outside on a glorious sunny day, Was in a mobility scooter with shopping so going inside was a no no anyway. |To add to my "bonus" there was a waitress outside topping up the sugar bowls, so thought that getting served was going to be easy. Far from it. I was totally ignored. A the waitress made her way around the tables filling up said sugar bowls, I sat patiently as eventually she made her way around to my table. Nothing. Not even a "hello, can I help you?". She then turned around and went back into the restaurant. Thank you for nothing.

Nice cafe with a menu offering a nice wide range from sandwiches through traditional English breakfast options, to salads, and basic hot meals such as shepherds pie and fish and chips. There is a good choice of sweet items from buns to desserts and a great range of drinks I can't recall the last time I had such an excellent coffee The layout is simple but bright and cheery. The staff were friendly enough and the prices good. This is one of two or more cafes in a row so make sure you get the right one as it is certainly the best of its type.

We have recently moved to another part of the country but during the many years we lived in West Sussex this was the cafe I most frequented with friends and family. The menu is varied, the atmosphere pleasant and the owners, who work personally behind the counter serving, are always friendly and welcoming. All the other waitresses also had a ready smile and were happy to help in any way. Whenever I am back in the locality I still make a point of popping in

After an early morning walk along the seafront at Worthing we decided to try The Continental for a full - veggie- breakfast. This can often be a disappointing task but this visit was not one of them! Friendly staff provided a good sized, well cooked selection of breakfast items which we both enjoyed. The other meals we saw our fellow diners eating looked good too, so I'm sure if you wanted the sausage and bacon you would be equally pleased!

There's nothing really positive I can say about this place apart from the polite staff. There's no atmosphere (unless you sit outside) the cutlery was thinking easily bendy metal. The food was pretty tasteless, the breakfast we had was obviously made of the cheapest ingredients, only cleared my plate because I was starving. Like a cheap roadside greasy spoon but on better plates. Not great.

We used to visit this cafe when we were students... now we have children the same age as we were when we used to pop in. Nothing has changed, the owners are still there, and the deor the same..... this for us is perfect we love it! The sandwiches are always fresh and VERY good value. No this isn't a slick operation, but it feels homely, Its quaint, and one thing I do know is if you go upstairs to the ladies toilet you will not find a cleaner one in the whole of worthing. M&S could do with visiting their toilets!.This is a good indication for me how things are run. Hygiene rating 5! bang on, see you Saturday!

This Monday we had my parents visiting and we had lunch, they really enjoyed their lunch and as usual our portions were very big..and they liked they could choose a mixture of veg. etc., to what they fancied..as they are both vegetarian they sometimes are limited to what they can eat, so this was perfect.. very enjoyable by the sunny window watching the World go bye.My parents were very impressed.

I met a friend for coffee here and we ended up staying for lunch. Coffee was lovely, sounds odd but it was really hot which I liked, sometimes cafes serve it a bit lukewarm. It wasn't bitter, good flavour.I had a tuna and cheese panini for lunch and my friend had a prawn jacket potato. Both lunches were really tasty and very reasonable. We chatted for quite a while but never felt under pressure to leave. The staff were friendly and attentive. Will definitely return, the cakes look like they're worth returning for!

When I go out to a cafe one of the main points is that it is a bit of a treat. As much as the service being efficient and the food and coffee being OK at The Continental, there is not much else to say really. It has a rather dull interior with no pictures or decor and feels rather drab. There is no atmosphere whatsoever and the staff seemed like they could have done with some cheering up although they were polite and nice enough. I have seen it is very popular but I won't be going back personally. I look for atmosphere, really friendly staff, nice decor and tasty food. Of which this was not up to it sadly.

We have been here a couple of times now. The staff here are very helpful and friendly and the service is always quick and efficient. The sandwiches and toasties are nice but the drinks are just awful. Coffees made with cheap syrup, the smoothies full of orange juice and hardly any fruit and the milkshakes warm and again full of some kind of syrup/sugar. For the price I would expect better, it's certainly not the cheapest cafe in town. It's a shame they can't get any of the drinks right and we have tried alternatives in the hope that maybe it was a one off but not for us :-(

I've called in a couple of times. The first time I visited I was stood outside reading the menu when a customer sitting outside saw me and recommended. Today I called in for a quick lunch. There is a large seating area and I was able to choose where I sat. My mozzarella and tomato panini was served within minutes and was nice and hot with a salad garnish and a generous portion of crisps which made it quite a substantial lunch. My latte was good and just the right temperature for me!I would describe the service and my welcome as polite rather than friendly, but I'm happy with that.

I come here quite a lot on a Saturday lunchtime for a coffee or a panini and I honestly can't fault it. Having read a few negative reviews on here, I am truly shocked. Especially when one reviewer says they close early? I have been coming here for a long, long time and I know their hours well. I believe a coffee shop further down Warwick Street used to close early - and has since folded. Maybe it was them?Anyway, I have always found the staff at The Continental to be friendly, courteous and polite. The food is varied and always comes out piping hot (if hot food has been ordered, of course!).A little gem.

There are loads of places to eat and drink in Worthing and as we travel to shop in the town on a fairly frequent basis we have tried a good number of them over the years. Many have come and gone but The Continental in our opinion is the original and the best. It’s been there for getting on for 30 years – as long as we have been visiting the town anyway. It's a traditional English café, like they all used to be before impersonal coffee chains took over the high streets.Set on car-free Warwick Street, it’s pleasant to sit outside in the summer but when the weather is not so kind there are two floors to choose from inside. On offer is good value, honest fare from breakfasts, light bites to lunches and afternoon tea. The proprietors Roger and Sue are hands-on; they ensure a friendly and efficient service. Roger makes the best Americano in town and always has Redbush tea available; something which many other cafés fail to offer. Sue produces a variety of lovely homemade hot dishes at lunch time. The salad garnishes are a meal in themselves and always very fresh and appealing. There are not many places you can get a good old fashioned Rum Baba but they are very popular and always sell out very quickly. Our preference:- homemade scones, tuna melt, bacon, cranberry and brie toasty, lasagne, macaroni cheese, omelettes and great meat pies.

We stopped here last week for coffee and cake. Really nice coffee, and tasty cream slice. The rum babas coming out looked good and I'd like to have said we're going to try them next time, but...We won't go there again. Their new closing hours are at 3pm, which is about the time that a tea and cake seem like a welcome break. Luckily we ordered at 2.10 but people who came along at 2.20 were disappointed. They locked the doors at 2.20! We were sitting outside and a number of people tried the door, seeing as the closing time was 3, they thought they could still go in and get something. It took everyone a while to realise they were just being ignored and the door wasn't just jammed. Them I went and knocked on the door as I needed the loo. Even though we were sitting outside in direct view of the counter, I had to explain that I had been eating there before I was allowed in. They clearly don't need or want the custom and it's a bit off having to knock and wait and explain yourself just to nip to the loo. And it was still only 2.30.

Nice and authentic cafe on the pedestrian walkway in Worthing. Good choice of breakfasts to light bites and lunches. Very nicely done. Good service - and with a smile. Access in is right on the pavement so easy to get into if you have a wheelchair or pushchair. Loos downstairs too. I had a chicken salad which was delicious and my sister an omelette. Lots of specials on the blackboard. Very reasonably priced. Would suit anyone! There was one downside - a nasty looking seagull on the prowl outside for droppings. So be warned of low flying seagulls with your food if eating outside.

The only thing this place was Gene Hunt! It was like stepping back into the 70s.We were served quickly and the staff were polite and friendly, however they drastically need a menu update ( I spotted a tray of Rum Baba's)Food was ok but a little overpriced. £2 for a large milkshake which was essentially 1/2 of milk with a splosh of Krusha £5 for a chicken and bacon panini no dressing ad bread was still soggy round the edges.On the plus side my husbands chips were lovely :)Would we go back ? probably not when Worthing now has some really good little cafe's in the same sort of area

We chose to eat here on the August Bank holiday monday and sat down at a dirty table outside, me reserving it while my wife went inside to order.The choice of food is staggering but after a long queue (we accept it was a busy bank hoilday) we find they have run out of white bread and have to settle for paninis. The food arrived in good time but nobody had bothered to clear our table so we had to do it ourselves. The paninis came with salad, which consisted of two thin slices of cucumber, one thin slice of tomatoe and some iceburg lettuce which was brown on the edges and chips which were cold and overcooked.My ham and cheese panini just tasted of cheese and my wife's chiken and pesto just tasted of pesto. Both were dry and the contents far from generous. Add to this warm coke and knives and forks that bent as you tried to use them.The final straw was that they closed at about 2.15 (on a bank holiday monday?) leaving all the tables outside full of dirty plates and you can see why we are ashamed that a place such as this is inflicted on our visitors and tourists.

I visit this cafe at least once a week. The staff are always very friendly. The choice of food is huge and they don't mind if you deviate from the set choices on the menu. They will also do half portions of any of the dishes for a child. Their macaroni cheese is the best I have ever tasted. You always get a pot of water with the pot of tea which is great.

A bit like stepping into a time warp and not in a good way. I agree with a previous reviewer that the coffee is poor and comes tepid. Also ordered an apple juice which had already been poured and had dust on the surface! A bit dubious about my son's cod and (soggy) chips. Didn't look like cod....not white enough......pollock I wonder? Toasted egg and bacon sandwich on white not worth eating. Bacon fatty and flabby and toast hard. Tuna sandwiches seemed OK. Wouldn't go back. Can't understand so many good reviews!

Had the most delicious home made Steak Pie, which was heavenly, loads of big chunks of melt in mouth steak, gorgeous gravy and light crispy pastry. Partner equally impressed with big portion of homemade Macaroni Cheese, with generous cheese. Amazingly good value. Great service and a real homely and friendly feel in the place. Really like it here. It's how good cafes used to be before trendy coffee shops took over.

For several years this has been our favorite lunch place in this town. Their toasted ham and cheese sandwiches are delicous and filling although not part of a slimming diet!Prices has gone up over the last couple of years, but that seems to be general for the area and lunch places as such.The atmosphere is vibrant and in the summer it is excellent to sit out on the street and enjoy looking at the people walking by. They come in all sorts of ages and sizes.They only have bottled beer, but good brands.

My third try for a decent Full English Breakfast in Worthing and this place hit the spot in every way. Large range of breakfast options (and lunches I noticed). Excellent food & very good fresh ground coffee. Nice friendly staff. Great value. Good atmosphere in there too. Couldn't fault anything- Brilliant! I'll be back.

coffee not good and very much on the tepid side.Service fine.It is good that loo is on ground floor but other places cannot do this unfortunately.Not somewhere to visit by choice-there are much better cafes.

I have used this cafe most Saturays for lunch for about the last year or so. It is without doubt the best Cafe I have been to in Worthing or elsewhere. The owner who serves the drinks is always polite and happy and the food served is delicious, hot, and good value for money. The waiting staff are also polite and helpful. I wouldnt go anywhere else for lunch or breakfast in Worthing.

Thought we'd update with a new review, as this is now our NUMBER ONE Worthing Cafe for Breakfasts... We come here most weeks, and have always met with really genuinely friendly and helpful service (you can tell they care about their customers!) and good quality, tasty, homemade produce. Well spaced seating, , great selection of breakfasts, impressively huge and tasty omelettes, some of the best quality coffee in Sussex, plus great Wholemeal scones... no loud muzak or radio blaring out, an accessible loo ... and all for less £'s than you pay in most other cafes. We love it!

Had the pleasure of choosing this establishment for lunch last Saturday. Although it is a self-service operation the menu is wide, the food is excellent, extremely good value for money, the service prompt and the staff friendly and helpful.Has a very good lunch for two including two large cappuccinos for under £15!

We went there for breakfast, they were willing to do what ever combination we required, as my husband wanted a bacon and cheese omelette with a couple of sausages, and I wanted scrambled egg with smoked salmon, and she gave me the choice of it on top or cooked with the egg. Nothing was too much trouble,

We go here quite regularly for breakfasts, which are reasonably priced, offer good portions, and are of good quality. Service is quick and the staff are really genuinely friendly and helpful, and always smile (a rarity these days!). Plus, they will happily make any small changes you request to the standard offerings. The cafe is clean and spacious, so you can relax without feeling crammed in (like in some places!).They also have a ground floor loo, which is great for the disabled or walking stick users (something many other cafes and restaurants in Worthing really need to improve on - far too many have loos located up or down full flights of stairs!).Our only tiny criticism is they could do with investing in some new, sturdier cutlery.

Been here a few times for drinks and the pub is very nice, friendly bar staff and reasonable prices. If you manage to get the chance to eat here and George the cook is cooking, you'll be in for a treat. She is a great cook and regular customers will agree. She's a credit to the G&D!

This venue is superb - the caterers are fantastic, the gardens lovely and public transport links excellent. Everything is there for a wonderful event. It definitely rates 5 star. However, I do agree with other reviews. There does need to be better signage when you arrive and even finding Reception is a task… even more so, if no one is there……..
