Saturday evening 29th and we visited this riverside bar as we were attending a birthday party being held here. We really liked the qwerky and zany decor and fixtures around the establishment, spent some time just walking about looking around. The food that was catered for the party was well presented, lots of it and tasty. The staff were friendly and attentive, the bar was clean and well maintained. Perhaps the drinks were a bit more expensive than we are accustomed to, no surprise really due to it’s location.

Has been a fabulous month of Sunday afternoon live music. Thoroughly enjoyable. Although we did not eat, a menu is available and the prawns look good. Noticed many ate fish&chips... Would recommend. (Open Friday, Saturday and Sunday only.) Lovely staff.

A very poor state of affairs by all accounts! My family went to have lunch today at 12:30 shortly after it opened and the place was fairly empty . They had a table of three and made a decision once the menu was finally given to them ! The options chosen were two burgers and loaded fries and salad x1 plus loaded chips. Not a complicated order by any stretch of the imagination. You paid prior to the meal and they were asked if they wanted the loaded chips as a starter - which again should not have caused an issue to timing either- so agreed yes. Thankfully they did as 40 minutes later the “starter” arrived! Nice chips but not worth the waiting time …. Then after a further 20 minutes they went ask what’s happening with their mains? After some confusion by the staff ( or as an excuse) to how the meals were ordered - which was clearly stated - everything was ordered on one bill and paid for together. They didn’t apologise in fact were quite affronted at the suggestion that there was a mistake made ….the owner cleared the starter plates and was quite rude in his manner & certainly no sign of apology for the wait. By this time the families that had arrived after had finished and left before their starter arrived! Then when the meals ( at long last!!) were brought they were escorted by the security guard! Was he on hand to ensure no trouble was brewing ? He had no idea what the matter was - the meals were being served … what’s the big deal attitude. I’m just shocked that you would leave paying (paid) guests for so long without apologising for the delay and no sweeteners to ease the customer . A very frosty manager or owner , short staffed in kitchen (staff told them) and bad service. However, on a good note the food was good once it arrived! Most of the nice weather being missed by being inside a rather quirky dark venue… they left after 2:30. What a shame that it tainted the day out to Littlehampton .

A dirty pub. Dog hairs all over the carpet and furniture. Fair enough allowing dogs in, as virtually every pub on our tour has done so far, but customers shouldn't leave covered in dog hairs. Old spilt drink stains all over the woodwork some of which were mouldy. Cigarette and vape machine on the premises with the brand advertising clearly visible. Cigarettes on direct sale to the public is illegal.

Told to eat my food while holding my dog on its lead. I explained that should tricky. So they had a meeting and decided that I could tether dog to chair. After I’d eaten a rather butch lady with tattoos further harassed me by stating that if I wanted to stay with the dog while the live music was on. I’d have to sit outside in the cold. All the while I was THE only customer in the establishment. Emily and Page lovely. Security and manager OCD with the controlling conduct.

Seems more like a evening venue, not alot of tables inside for seating. We had Stopped for somewhere to eat with the kids. Didn't have a kids menu, but got them something of the normal. No highchairs, but very nice lady brought over some colouring books for the kids which was very nice. The food was lovely. Price average, we had burgers which were home made and highly recommend! Would go back, probably without the kids! 🤣

We went to the Empress to watch an Elvis tribute night, so didn’t eat other than a portion of chips. It was a thriving restaurant though, and everyone looked very happy and the food looked good. The chap serving the food was lovely and chatty and polite. The lady behind the bar was really welcoming and kind and she came and found us to let us know when a table was free. Elvis was fab and everyone looked to be having a great time. Good spot in Littlehampton too.

The Empress is in a lovely location along the river Arun. Warm and friendly welcome with plenty of seating inside and out. There was a good range of drinks, however, the signage outage which says ‘tap house’ is a little misleading as it doesn’t have a wide range of ales on compared to others with the same description. Good for a stop off on a walk along the river.

We visited today quite by accident.... literally. My son tripped over outside the restaurant and cut his hand and bumped his head (no fault of the restaurant at all) We went inside the restaurant and they were so kind and helpful and got my son an ice pack for his head and a glass of water. We stayed there for some time whilst our son calmed down and they kept checking on us. We then decided to stay for some lunch and they were so accommodating for our son even though they did not have a specific kids menu. The food was amazing and the chicken signature burger was delicious. We usually look up restaurants on Tripadvisor first and we did not today but we were so pleased with the service, quality of food and the staff's kindness.

Work colleagues of mine have stumbled across this place in a bid to avoid other work colleague's haunts haha for drinks and a catch up. We've been meeting here just over a year now and in November was the first time we ordered food. One of my friends is gluten free, and although they don't have gluten free menu items as such when I called ahead they promised they would have several dishes on the menu that would be able to be GF. Excellent!! My Gf friend said her deconstructed chicken burger was delicious. Me and the other friend both went for garlic prawns with chips and salad. Quite possibly the best garlic prawns I've ever had in the UK. Taking the first bite was like I was in Greece. Delicious charcoal flavour with garlic butter and fresh seafood it was to die for. They happily welcomed my friends dog as it was bonfire night and let him sit on the couch next to us as he was scared. 10/10 for the empress it's "our" place and we will be back again and again. I've since been with my husband to watch the live bands and have a drink. It's a lovely location ran by lovely people.

Abselout joke. Went in to have a drink and order some nibbles (bread, olives and nuts board) 1st I asked the difference between 2 boards got a reply "your asking me? I work in the bar not kitchen" this came from the older lady white white hair (owner/manager I assume). So ended up ordering the board stated above. I paid at 17:21 I asked how long it was going to be and they said it was bwing plated up at 17:45 still no board. Requested money back again owner/manager did not even look at us when her employee asked about a refund then under her breath said "they only waited 5 mintes" never going back there again. The younger lady was nice but that's about it.

Really disappointed. We'd passed this place one evening and asked if it was dog friendly, a lovely woman (member of staff) told us it was. So we decided to go back the next day for a few drinks and a bite to eat. This was when some lockdown restrictions were still in place. As there was a couple getting served at the bar we waited our turn to be told by a rude barman, shaking his head, it was table service only. We went to a table, there were only two other occupied tables, and waited...and waited...and waited. During this time we saw two other people get served at the bar ams the barman look over and look away again. We had intended on settled in and spending a few quid on food and drink. We left and spent it elsewhere. Somewhere where there wasn't a loudmouth customer effin and jeffin in front of kids and going unchallenged. We live in a town that relies on visitor income, not a good advert.

I moved from London down to Goring just under two months ago and was recommended The Bluebird and very pleased I was! I've been there 4/5 times in the last month or so. I always have a mug of tea (£1.80) and one of their top drawer fried egg sandwiches (2 eggs) which comes with a lovely side salad to make it healthy 😁. I'm Coeliac so they serve it with gluten-free bread which they kindly toast at no extra charge. That is £4.20 which is terrific value! The staff are so friendly and helpful, really couldn't be nicer, special mention for Amanda, Nicky and Rachel. Highly recommended if you're visiting the área x.

A very disappointing valentines meal. Greeted for our pre-odered 3 course meal by a rude hostess, we were the first to be seated in the restaurant for the night. 25 minuets later, our starter arrived before our drinks ( a complimentary glass of prosecco each and a bottle of tap water). Starters was very bland and the fried item were cold, even though we are one of three parties in the restaurant at this point. Luckily, our mains arrived promptly after our starter. Yet, this consisted of dry and bland chicken. When we finished, it took the staff about 30 minuets to clear our plates. We then continued to wait 20 extra minuets before we gave up waiting for our desert and had to ask 3 times for someone to grab the bill for us. During this time, we started talking to the couple sat next to us who seemed to be having similar issues. Overall, this was a very disappointing meal and no one single memeber of staff appologies for the poor servise.
