The Landing Place in Arun

Service & chips good but that's it! Food bland and unexciting, needs seasoning and inspiration as overpriced. Restaurant very quiet apart from one table on a Saturday before Christmas. Prawn cocktails had too much salad as aubergine tough and duck lacked crispy skin and sauce tasted of nothing. Go to the Lion or Walnut tree for better local food.

We received a friendly greeting by Lucas, who kindly took our coats and once seated took our drinks orders. Chelsea warmly introduced herself and with Lucas we were served promptly and efficiently with all courses and the food was tasty and presented well. Many thanks for an enjoyable afternoon. We will definitely be returning.

We had such a wonderful meal at The Landing Place last night! Nothing was too much, and the food was out of this world. The photos speak for themselves!! I can promise you, you will not find a restaurant like this outside of London. Thank you!

Megan, Mel, Chelsea and Lucas were absolutely exceptional with their customer service, also let me try a taster of the new Christmas cocktail for free, roast beef dinner

3 of us went for a birthday dinner and every single meal we had (the duck special, beef medallion special & the lamb shank of the usual menu) was absolutely divine! Lucas as our waiter couldn’t have been anymore attentive with his service and knowledgeable of the whole menu too. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a lovely evening :)

Fabulous Location, Great Service, Amazing Wine List, AWFUL food choices for Vegans and Veggies. I live locally to the Landing Place and have been a number of times hoping the vegan / veggie food choices would have improved. Alas no.... The choices are without imigination and you can tell the ingredients are just put together on the plate rather than created on site. Very disappointing. I went Christmas Eve with my Husband last year and they had run out of options and all they could offer me was Falafels.. Really, Falafels.. I could have just gone to Sainsburys to buy those!!! Everything else is fabulous. So I would suggest to all Vegans and Veggies, eat before you go and just have a nice glass of something.

Absolutely amazing food and Lucas made it all the better with his friendliness and general character. Food really outstanding. Honestly we all had different food and all was so tasty and outstanding. Thank u and will be returning

This was our first time at The Landing Place and it definitely won’t be our last! From start to finish the service was excellent and Lucas was noticeably very good at his job. The food delicious. We had the seafood linguine and Tuna. The atmosphere was lovely and the views amazing! We were there to celebrate a milestone birthday and delighted we chose this venue to celebrate! The only thing I would add is maybe a house wine could be offered on the wine menu?

We were lucky to have a lovely sunny day to enjoy the sea views from The Landing Place. Our lunch of sea bass risotto was very tasty and served with a smile by Lucas. We all enjoyed our visit, and will be back.

This was the nicest sea view fish and chips I can remember. Lovely views and great service. Very Can’t recommend enough! Looking forward to our next visit .

The Landing Place absolutely 1st class! Lukas and Joe could not do more to make our lunch experience better. The Haddock and chips were huge with lovely crispy batter and moist fish. The King Prawn and Mussel in Coconut and Chilli broth was incredible and so delicious! The views over the sea kept us gazing for nearly 2 hours….. and to finish off, just look ate this dessert !

The two of us went for dinner to celebrate our 40th Wedding Anniversary and had a wonderful experience… First we were greeted by Hannah, who gave us such a warm welcome & found us a great table with sea view. We were then served by Chelsea, who went out of her way to make the evening a big success. The food served was imaginative & of the highest standard (the beetroot Gravlax was exquisite!) .. In fact, all staff are excellent, as we’ve visited for lunch before and the service cannot be faulted. Prices are reasonable, especially for the high standard of food … the ambience is great and the sea views beautiful. Highly recommended. Thank you all x

I vistited The Landing Place with my wife, sister and brother in law and we all had a really lovely time. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Hannah and the young man (apologies I cannot recall his name), were so helpful and looked after us wonderfully. The food was delicious and I particularly loved the venison & prune terrine and the surf and turf, with the steak being cooked perfectly medium-rare, as requested. The cocktails (Margaritas) and the wine were also excellent. Thank you very much to the restaurant and we hope to visit again in the not too distant future.

Lovely venue with triffic views out over the sea. We had first and main courses plus cocktails and several glasses of wine, bill came to just over £200 with service. Surf and turf was very good, highly recommend.

Came here over the weekend and have to say it was excellent, from the minute we arrived to the time we left it was excellent, food was top notch and risotto was out of this world as was the prawn linguini

We were extremely disappointed given the good reviews . We thought the restaurant lacked atmosphere , the acoustics are poor creating a noisy environment. Some of the food was ok but some very unacceptable … the Tender stem broccoli was so tough a knife couldn’t cut it . The Pork chop was v tough and the peach desert also could have been apple ! It was not a cordon blue experience ! The waiter seemed v inexperienced . It was not what we expected for an expensive night out with friends . Maybe it’s ok for large groups of younger people but not for us . Wouldn’t recommend you waste your money and we will not be returning .

We have visited over 10 times since it opened as a couple with a large group and recently on Mothers Day always excellent. All the staff are friendly and conscience. The food is consistently good and reasonably priced. The decor inside and views outside are the best in Bognor Regis. We'll done and looking forward to our next visit. Steve

Had heard lots of great things about this restaurant so was disappointed. The restaurant itself is very nicely decorated with a view across the sea. The staff were very attentive but the food could have been better. Only 2 fish dishes on the menu. The batter was overdone on the haddock. The knickerbocker glory was far from glorious! Copious amounts of cream, one scoop -if that-of chocolate ice cream and no fruit. Personally I won’t be rushing back.

Today my friend & I have just had a wonderful lunch experience at the Landing Place What a tasteful venue, beautiful decor + panoramic sea views. Lovely efficient service from our waitress Amelia, and interesting, informative conversation with the owner. For starters I had a posh prawn cocktail bursting with lots of juicy crab, prawns, avocado purée and the most amazing zingy sea herb garnish, which was a true taste sensation. I had to google it straight after… My main was the plaice meunière, dripping in seasoned melted butter and garnished with crispy brown shrimp. Moist and cooked to perfection, with sprouting broccoli and way too many buttery new potatoes alongside. Dessert was a peach and raspberry Melba, fresh and tart, minimal sugar, and a scoop of sorbet on top. I had 3 delicious courses and a glass of crisp NZ Cabernet Sauvignon, yet I walked away without having to loosen my belt. Light, refreshing and ever so tasty! I will be back😁

Great views,limited menu. I really wanted steak so asked for ribeye. Asked what sauce does it come with and told none! You get a salsa and fries. £30 no sauce no thank you. Had the clam and bacon chowder starter very nice,then fish and chips (average)

We had a disappointing time there last time we went, about 4 months ago, but now it was considerably better. The menu was greatly improved, and the quality of the food was very good. All four of us enjoyed our meals. And the service was also so much better. The waitress who looked after us was knowledgeable about both the food and wine she was serving, and was very courteous throughout. We will recommend it to others.

We came today a big group of us. The service was fantastic they couldn’t do enough for you. The food was just amazing. I have got to say it was probably one of the best roasts I have ever had. The beef just melted in your mouth. The roast potatoes were crispy and the veg was great. And it was presented so lovely. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anybody. I will be going back.

This restaurant is fantastic. Warm welcome on the door and fabulous service from all staff. The food was divine. Best fish and chips ever with choice of 3 sauces all cooked from scratch ...the curry sauce was incredible. The cod dish with fennel was also perfectly cooked. All this accompanied by ice cold Poretti and delightful wine. Rounded off with a clever pudding of panacotta, charred pineapple and gorgeous mango sorbet....Highly recommended. Still relatively new....this takes dining in Bognor to new levels. Highly tasteful decor that reflects the location and the best views of the sea from practically every table. Plenty of parking on the street nearby...or short walk from Alexandra Theatre car park....I'll be back!! Thanks to all the staff for an awesome time

First time at The Landing Place. We went for dinner with friends. We all like the atmosphere and the decor of the restaurant. We had the chuck burger and fish and chips. Food was very nice. Was it really really really nice NO! But it was nice. We had a bottle of wine and the bill wasn’t too bad. So average price range. Service was lovely by the waitress who was really nice but the food was slow. Really slow. It took one whole Hour to be served our burger and chips. I also feel that the menu is tiny. I like a small Menu but it’s really tiny. Would I go back? Probably but I wouldn’t be rushing.

Very slow service we booked for 12 noon and did not leave the restaurant until 2.45 having only had 2 courses! The food was good but not exceptional. We had two young children who waited an hour and a half for their meal. Definitely not a place to go with a big family group. Such a shame as the location and ambiance are very nice!

Went for a traditional Sunday Dinner (Beef) With a Mussels Starter!! Was not disappointed Excellent Service , Ambiance, and Food in truly beautiful surroundings .... HIGHLY RECCOMEND !!!!

What a lovely treat and a rare find to dine at this restaurant. It is so wonderfully bright and airy- modern without being stark - and the first floor has the most wonderful outlook to the sea. We both ordered the Tuna steak which was an extremely generous size, cooked just how it should be - rare in the middle. It was served with the most delicious salsa Verda, and rocket and parmesan salad. The chips even tasted better than most I have eaten. Pudding was the panacotta which was a delightful refreshing dish, with a lovely crunch. The service was excellent. Highly recommend. Please support this new restaurant as it really offers something the area has lacked for so many years. I will be back soon, and can't wait for the lighter evenings to enjoy an early evening stroll on the seafront and a sunset dinner here.

Unfortunately disappointed... Night out with wife to try the new-ish local restaurant. Decor, location and also staff very nice. Unfortunately let down by poor food. Carpaccio of venison in principle nice, but bit too heavy and also too chunky. Not the wafer thin you would expect of a "carpaccio", also very rich for a starter. Then plaice as main was sitting in plate of fat ?butter, which was slightly burnt and overpowering. Also broccoli burnt in same fat... My bream risotto had very nice bream sitting on mushy seafood risotto. Again very rich and heavy... Even the hisbi cabbage we ordered as side was very rich with bacon and not a light side to balance the greasy food. Shame ... We left with bitter aftertaste and needed a schnapps on return home to help digest the heavy meal. Needs improvement to retain customers....

Our meals were delicious and the staff were very efficient and friendly. We watched a stunning sunset and enjoyed looking out to the sea. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Lovely evening with close friends ...every course was well and truly enjoyed.. Just a nice chilled Saturday evening.. Service was very attentive..and personal ..

Great ambiance, staff friendly, nice selection on the menu, food tasty, portion size good. Menu was a little limited between Xmas n new year but still good food.

What an amazing find! I went there today with my partner and two friends, we had a fabulous table for four upstairs, so we could see and admire the view and what a wonderful view it was! It wasn’t just the view that was wonderful,...

Whilst the food was good and can't fault the waiting staff, a minor issue with one meal (meat twine on the plate) has escalated by complete lack of customer care in dealing with it. Not a cheap place to eat and can't see the business...

I came here for dinner with my family. The decor is nice, light and clean. I ordered from the Christmas menu (which only had two dessert options which I found a bit odd?). The starter was really nice, the beef croquettes however, my turkey main...

A perfect ambiance set the tone. I had dinner with family and friends which was lovely. Service was friendly and attentive. Food for the table was excellent. Looking forward to return for lunch to see the views looking out to sea.

The staff are actually amazing here as is the venue. Just the food that lets it down. We went there after a recommendation but going on a Sunday meant the menu was different. Had the onion soup for starter -(only 3 of us had starters)....

Our lunch was 10 stars. Roast beef was cooked to perfect and the pork was amazing. We can for a birthday lunch and we will be back after Xmas to try the rest of the menu. Service was very attentive.

We went for Sunday lunch. One of the nicest places I’ve been to in a long time. The food was very good indeed and plenty of it. I was very pleased to see the roast beef was sliced thinly as it’s traditional in England but...

Spectacular location, underwhelming food. Great sea view from 1st floor, enthusiastic service if not yet an oiled machine. Understand its not long open, so assuming they get it right, this could be a spectacular spot worth going out of the way to get to. Little...

What a lovely place to enjoy lunch with the husband and kids! Excellent service. Thanks Leanne! Great food in a lovely setting. Will definitely be coming back!

Visited this restaurant last night, lovely venue, food was excellent and service we received was brilliant. Will be visiting again, thank you ☺️

Whilst the views from upstairs and the decor are impressive - there are definitely teething problems to be sorted. The computer system was dodgy so it took sometime to place our orders, the menu online had also changed and the friend with allergies had less...

The restaurant is very well presented, clean, fresh and bright, great view of the sea from the floor to ceiling windows. Well furnished and decorated adding to the feel of being by the sea and to the cheerful ambiance. I ordered the chowder followed by...

What stood out was the honesty of the staff. We were told the kitchens were experiencing technical difficulties. We were given complementary bread and butter to keep us going. After about 30 minutes they took our order and said it could be some time. We...

Wonderful experience and good food. We were beautifully attended to by the lovely Susie and my disabled daughter was made to feel really welcome. Playlist needs attention! Some strong jazz/funk would really lift the atmosphere. Great meal though. We will be back!

Similar experience to previous reviewers. Lovely decor, very attentive and friendly staff but food under par. Trio of deserts not as described and lacking finesse and pizza simply awful (both taken off the bill). Disappointed with the knickerbocker glory, has the potential to be so...

Amazing atmosphere, great food and the waiting staff are very attentive. Food was amazing and drinks even better!

Great time with family Amazing food Great service, felt very welcome. Will be bringing the rest of the family in the coming weeks.

I can't believe how amazing this new restaurant is in bognor , amazing food and absolutely stunning service. Being able to speak to the chefs personally was fantastic. Please everyone visit for the best roast dinner in Sussex.

3 stars seemed too harsh, 4 starts feels too generous on this occasion. The good bits; - lovely decor - roast beef was really nice (didn’t get a massive amount of shared vegetables for 4 roasts though) - excellent value kids menu - waitress was...

There were five in our group and we were really looking foward to trying here. The restaurant is modern and clean, and is in a prime spot overlooking the sea. It is very loud when it is full as there are no furnishings to muffle/soften...
