The Sir Timothy Shelley in Worthing

This place is now closed but the three fishes wetherspoon is on the opposite side of the road & still open

Now closed! Was fine for food and beer etc but at night it was a bit dull, especially with the Three Fishes over the road.

Good food visiting the area and was recommended will use again when in the area quick service which is handy when.your hungry very pleasant experience

Food does not look like the photos, but I've since it opened in the 90's it's always been good value and it's busier and cheaper and cheaper than it's rival 50 yard's across the road so why are they closing it. Because those numpty accountants have decided it's not making making​ enough money.?.. Doh!!!!!

Fui a este pub para reunirse con amigos para una copa después del trabajo, ya que es un lugar barato y popular tanto para beber y comer. No parece haber un montón de clientes que pasan la mayor parte de su día en aquí, y cada día también!

lovely food, staff shame its going to close in in two weeks.

Great food , nice staff , good prices

All ways good food at a good price ,

I went to this pub for lunch, (curry day). I had the vindaloo, it was good quality and served quickly, (I used to have the flaming dragon, but that was discontinued). This pub is up for sale at present, Recommended.

Pleasant staff and nice drink selection. Unfortunately a bit dirty and no smoking garden.

Meal was good but cud if bin a bit hotter

Parece ser un montón de "habitués" aquí, no los culpo realmente, ya que el ambiente era genial, así como el servicio. local cervezas de volveremos.

Spoons. Cheap booze, food and the same carpet they use for the night bus seats.

Enjoyed but some strange clientele

The food is very good and the menu has all the calories written down next to the item. The spiced chicken and salad was great.

Toast and egg was cold when food arrived and rest of food was lukewarm. Took them a while to refill the coffee flask for the unlimited coffee.

This is a wetherspoon pub.They recently made the decision to withdraw roar lunches from their menu.I was sad at this as they were good value for money.So today I had BBQ melt chicken with chips,peas,a mushroom and a half cooked tomatoe.It was fairly average.Not a vast quantity of food.The pub itself seemed rather on the dark side.Not one of their better pubs.

Un lugar muy agradable. No demasiado concurrida para un sábado por la tarde y no tan ruidosa.

Este pub parece volver siempre, tiene un techo bajo y aunque luz sentimos un poco opresiva. Parece popular!

Very tasty food with lots of compiments for the chef.

Comido aquí varias veces y bebe aquí muchas veces.

Si puedes evitar la impresión de 'y aserrín inicial de Spit cuando entras, el comedor en la parte trasera es bastante agradable. Nos metimos en para una rápida comida de pub el lunes de Semana Santa, y aunque estaban muy ocupados, el servicio fue muy amable y eficiente, sin ser entrometido. A pesar de las apariencias, son también muy orientado a los niños, que era una ventaja para nosotros.

gets very busy as quite cheap to eat but 80p for a few slices of bread NOT good. once you pass all the drunks at the front the place is quite pleasant mainly an older crowed

Visited on 20th jan, had a lovely all day brunch with a diet coke. Lovely atmosphere calm and unrushed. Visited at lunchtime. Friendly and welcoming staff. Will return again

I was out with friends and we end up it this pub. It is very nice and traditional English pub in the front and at the back is very nice seating area if you are hungry and would like to eat something while you there. The food is very nice I must say. And the coffee the best price in town and the drinks as well. Would come again

We were introduced to this watering hole by a friend. A large choice of food from the menu, my vegetarian chilli was tasty, and a drink, the bill for my wife and me was under £10.

I went here for lunch with my husband, who is blind. I sat him down at a table and went to the bar to order food, where I was ignored by the staff while the men around me were all served even though they were all arriving at the bar after me (shame on those men as well as the bar staff!). When I eventually was served, the food arrived in reasonable time - but had clearly been hanging around in the kitchen as it was barely warm. Not a good experience!

Absoluty appalling! If I could give minus stars I would. Bar staff did absolutely nothing when one man began to start a fight with my boyfriend for saying hello to an old friend, instead they were more interest in watching it escalate. Before we knew it we had about 6 men round our table throwing out drinks left right and centre, still no sign of staff stepping in. I had to shout across the pub for assistance yet they still didn't really do much. I had had enough by this point and got up to leave, as I passed the group of men they all decided to throw their drinks over me and one man hit me in the mouth with his glass...bar staff...just stood there! Compleatly unacceptable, as a 20 year old girl having 6 fully grown men some at least 40 behaving like that and bar staff doing absolutely nothing to help is a joke. WILL NOT BE RETURNING!!!!!!

Great place to meet your friends in town and enjoy a cheap drink. No music though and attracts day time drinkers

Was in Worthing town one evening and decided to try out this pub having not knowing it was there! It is a J D Wetherspoons brewery offering lots in the way of ales, bitters, meal deals and also cakes. Tables were a bit sticky. Wasn't very busy inside, just a group of workmen ordering food and a couple down the far end. There is a conservatory dining area towards the back of the pub, and the toilets are upstairs which is a bit of a pain if you are the less nimble type with arthiritus/disabled etc. Staff behind the bar were very friendly and chatty and looked smart in their black and white formal uniforms. The were happy to call me a taxi to get home. Another nice Wetherspoons pub. There is alot of history i believe behind this pub owing to the pictures/photos of the Shelleys on the walls and pillars.

Great place to drink you are a skint student or just want a cheap drink out, they offer a good selection of drinks and you get what you pay for with the food

Sir Timothy Shelley is situated in Chapel Road in Worthing right across the street from The Three Fishes...which is curious as they are both Wetherspoon's public houses, and with no major significant differences between them. Sir Timothy Shelley ticks all the usual Wetherspoon's boxes...cheap drinks, inexpensive plentiful basic food, WiFi etc.I guess actually that is is quite clever as Wetherspoon's has the monopoly, and as long as anyone in Worthing drinks, the public house chain will be making money.

This is the place for soft drinks as they are so cheap and the food is so vast in choice and this is the place to bring pals.

One star for beer price. The craggy shells which haunt this place originally came from JeremyKyle Island. With barnacle grip they remain, only venturing into the world once a fortnight to leech cash from society.

Popped in for a drink but no atmosphere just a lot of people sat or stood around slowly getting more and more drunk. If you can get past the smokers at the front.

always a very good place to eat consistency and great food and service staff always happy and great value for money

Sunday turkey roast and lentil roast were great, good portions served hot and drink included in the price of £5.99 served in a timely and efficient manner. Atmosphere was non existent!

Went to the 'Shelley' prior to a concert at the St Pauls Centre. So just a quick meal and a couple of drinks. I tried the German hot dog with pulled pork and it was OK. It is what it is however. It feels like a canteen not really a pub. Staff are generally OK and on this visit were fine. Would go again but it is not a social 'local' pub. Nice to go if you want to be ignored - and I mean that in a positive way!

loved the curry club and atmosphere nice pub friendly staff food always delicious great menu and very reasonable priced

Whenever we go out for lunch or dinner we mostly always end up in Wetherspoon's. I love the fact that I can still eat a healthy option which is not only tasty, good value for money but includes a drink too. It's really hard to find good, value for money food, when you are trying to watch your weight so thumbs up to the Wetherspoon's under 500 range. Best meal for me was the Freedom salad with a Salmon Steak - yummy!

They serve a very good curry on a Thursday. First time here as we were on a day trip. Obviously very popular as it was quite busy. Really good value for money. Thought it was worth a mention.

A wide selection of beers and much cheaper with Beer & food prices than the Assembly Rooms, Epsom. The staff were very friendly, but some of the drinkers there had a bit of an attitude to strangers with children, almost like the children of the damned film.

Went in Sunday evening to order a meal and kid’s meal.A few local characters about, but nothing to put you offWas told that some parts of the roast dish were off, but would offer more of others which were fine with us.Came back to tell us that the kids Chicken nuggets meal was off as well, but went over the road to their sister establishment to get them,Couldn’t fault the service, and the place is a typical Wetherspoons.You know what you are going to get, and would certainly recommend

It's a typical Wetherspoons with good food and drink. Love the breakfasts-great value and with the free coffee top-ups can be a leisurely affair in the nice conservatory area. Recommended!!

Only wnet in briefly then letf, was put off by the entrance as full of loud drunk men smoking and swearing, not very inviting!!

good value, wholesome food served at good value prices. The food is what you would expect from a chain pub but if shopping during the day in Worthing - then give it a try !!

we are always going to this wetherspoons pub as it is cheap and close in town centre, quality of food is as usually average, never expecting anything much from this place as everything is microwaved not cooked except the burgers, staff always go wrong with orders like another day my friend clearly asked for a pork sunday roast, they served him chicken and receipt said it was chicken he ordered, but it was not, so they are going wrong starting with bar staff and so on like I did not get my sour cream on my chilli con carne and on the menu it clearly says it goes with sour cream and other wetherspoons pubs served me a proper meal and my boyfriend's burger meat was burnt as well and i have seen other customers dissapoinment every time we have visited this pub

nice atmosphere and hard working staff. food good quality and delivered with speed. drinks excellent value.

Friendly Staff nicely cooked food Value for money well kept beers what more could you want, Well they have low prices as well

i never expect the highest quality food from these places, if you want something quick and cheep, a wetherspoons pub is your answer. this one was no exception. got what i expected, it was curry night, the naan was chewy, the rice was one lump i had to break up and the poppadoms had rivers of grease on them, but it didn't taste too bad at all. its OK quality food for not bad prices. the guy who took my order seemed fed up, very close to being rude at one point but not enough for me to get too upset about it. the waiter was very polite. you have to ask for a key to get into the disabled/baby changing room, and the place seemed to be behind on the cleaning, but we weren't there long so it didn't bother us too much. i doubt we will return to this pub as we were just passing by.

I visit worthing town every weekend and go to the sir Timothy Shelley for breakfast. I am an extremely fussy eater but the bar and kitchen staff are always willing to take my request and to excellent standards too. I always get my food in around 10 minutes and it's very good for the price as you can see in my picture. Every now and then I do visit for a pint and the new manager is very efficient in telling me all about the ales and gives free testers to make sure I get the ones I like. Also, the newly redecorated conservatory is a big change and makes it look a lot brighter. All in all I would recommend this pub to anyone.

The food is quite good and excellant value for money. I never have to wait more than ten minutes for the food to be brought round. The drinks are all very cheap too.

this is a handy wetherspoons for central worthing. drinks are as always value for money and roast on sunday is a bargain with a drink. food was hot, service was good.

Met up with 6 work colleagues for a bite to eat. Although it was a typical Weatherspoon type meal the food was piiping hot and very tasty. The menu is extensive and it took a while to choose because of choice available. Everyone though the food was very good for about £6 - £8.Toilets were clean and tidy and the drinks were reasonably priced. Worth a visit.

Went here after having a delicious breakfast in a wetherspoons in Matlock. We waited a long time for a cold brunch breakfast. The food should be excellent value but when it is cold it is really very poor value. I would certainly check to see how long it will take to serve you when ordering to decide if you want to wait and chivvy them up if you are left waiting for a long time. Good Vegetarian options and the staff are friendly. We might have been unlucky so I will try again. Hopefully they will read this review and make some changes.

Just popped in for a couple on a Friday night. Was good value as expected but the bar person gave us the wrong drink order but we drank them anyway. Some of the other patrons were walking/standing on the seats though, which I didn't like.

We'd been regaular customers of the Timothy Shelly for ages but started to go over to the three fishes due to inconsistant food quality at the Timothy shelly, however after a cooker breakdown we went back after 4 months to find the standard had improved drasticly which was pleasing, but alas it didn't last very long I was served an egg (pictured) with my breakfast a few weeks ago that can only be discribed as unfit for human consumption!! then when I asked for another egg the waitress came over to table with another egg which was almost as bad as the 1st!! she then said she had been told by the duty manager to bring it over to me even though she though it was an awful egg!!I work hard for my money and feel very angry that Wetherspoons cant get any consistancy at many of their outlets!! the photo's of the breakfasts on menu cards look great and when done properly are superb and great value but they must have a set standard throughout the company they all adhere to .The company should ensure that all so called duty managers and chefs are trained to deliver these standards all of the time!!We do enjoy going to different locations and find that consistancy is a big problem for them.The customer service people at head office send out the usual standard letter but no sincere apology or refund was offered and I feel strongly that customers should not have to ask for one and instead be offered one in these types of cases.So we're eating elsewhere for a while and taking a Wetherspoons holiday until they improve again. Just look at my photo!

we had meal here 3 weeks ago steak and kidney pedd was ok bot ham egg and chips my wife had ham was ok cihips passable but eggs were hard and the white was crisp and brown could not eat them, when i went to order ice cream sundae was told in matter of fact manner it would be 20 mins so did nort bother will not go again

The Sir Timothy Shelly in Worthing from our experience falls below the usual standard set by the Weatherspoons chain. The standard meal from the menu (microwaved) was overcooked,One of us had Steak and Kidney Pudding and the other Fish and chips The chips had been left standing and were not really fresh.The service when ordering was very friendly but when the food was delivered to our table by a different member of staff she had a could not care less attitude. Also when customers vacated their table the staff were very slow in clearing them

Average pub food, average price, but not too good a family environment. Staff are friendly enough, but the service can be a bit poor.

A man who looks like santa claus drinks here, great for the kids at xmas!

you know what your in for with Weatherspoons. reasonable value, reasonable food, and a good beer selection.

Standard Wetherspoons pub with good choice of real ale, including some from local micro breweries. Food very hit and miss!!

As always with Whetherspoons the beer was excellent and good value. The cooked meals are not in the same league and dissappointed.

Food is well below average, breakfast is not good and the special offers on the menu are not good, the idea is to promise something special but once you try to order them they say, 'It's not available, would you like to try something else?'If you enjoy good food go elsewhere!

I popped in here whilst waiting for a friend to collect me for a concert in the nearby Assembly Hall. I chose roast pork, with which I had a choice of drink for a mere £6.45 total. I chose a pint of Carling as my drink. Amazing value.... Service was prompt once I had placed my order at the counter. The food was perfectly edible - in no way distinguished - but hey, who's complaining for the price? I was hungry, had an hour to kill and ate here. Perfectly satisfactory. Spacious if rather dowdy, dark restaurant (there is one small brighter area); seating serviceable and reasonably comfortable. No parking except restricted and on-road, which looks as if it might be problematic at times.

It's a Wetherspoon what more can i say - great value for money - good service - you get what you pay for. Normal sprinkling of locals that you would get in any Wetherspoon in the country - old boys nursing pints of ale from 9 am till 3pm.Overall though steady away pub nothing exceptional.

I decided to revisit the Shelley (which I have avoided for a while after hearing it was under new management and was plesently surprised. There was a working stillage at This time during the ale festival which I have not seen done around here before and at 2.10 a pint how could you resist! I noticed a large decrease in the doll drinkers and was able This walk in without pushing through smokers! The service was friendly and fast quality was good and a young lady offered to carry my drinks to a table for me. All round a great improvement I will certainly consider visiting again now!

This pub used to be really rough but since it has been under new management the atmosphere has really changed, in that it now has one. They now serve real ales and it feels much more like a pub to relax in than just a place to get cheap booze before a night on the town. Nice to be able to go to a whetherspoons without feeling like you might catch something.

I always arrange to meet friends for food and it's a great place to start and finish your weekend :0)

Great place to brush shoulders with a local tramp. Don't really recomend this place unless your homeless and have nowhere to go. In my opinion AVOID

The Sir Timothy Shelly is still the one venue to visit on a weekend night to start the night and also a place to start the day with a good value breakfast but through out the day it is a magnet for the "Doll Drinkers" but they are kept under very good control and the place is still a good venue for food and cheap drink, It's nothing special but also better than nothing, only problem as with many places now is the smokers being pushed onto the pavement out the front,

For those who want to enjoy a good value English Breakfast or perhaps to fill that 'dead time' between 5.00pm and 7.00pm while waiting for the theatres to open, the Wetherspoons pub 'The Sir Timothy Shelly' is ideal. Definitely one of the better Wetherspoons pubs.
