Amelie's in North Street, Chichester. "Delicious varitety of small dishes - or should that be a variety of small, delicious dishes? Excellent staff. No music. Modest prices. We'll be back. We went on night they closed at 7pm - ideal for pre-theatre"
The Lamb Inn, Birdham " - limited choice of menu...environment was more pub than comfort"
Pizza & Pasta Pub "Friendly and helpful. Reasonable prices and good food. Nice pizzas, proper handmade, not your 'dial a pizza' type. Would go again".
Crouchers Hotel, Appledram, Chichester "superb meal and service...."
The Whitehorse, Rogate "good food, varied menu and a good option if walking in the South Downs"
The Quay, Emsworth "Fabulous food and surroundings. Excellent menu and superbly well cooked. A place for that special occasion or when a generous friend picks up the bill"

Guests' comments on restaurants 2011 - Crab & Lobster
The Crab & Lobster is worth searching out! Lovely setting down windy lanes. I haven't edited out the bad reviews, so I think they just say it all!
"Excellent, lovely food and beautifully presented".
"Excellent food, well-staffed, good atmosphere. Highly recommended"
"Superb, varied and unusual menu. More expensive than most other options, but worth it. Went with our two young children"

Comments 2011 - Crown and Anchor, Dell Quay
Just goes to show that everyone is different. I hesitated putting on a rather adverse comment, but not everywhere suits all the guests and people do get a very different experience - on the whole the comments were positive.
"Great waterside pub - a really good boozer. Just popped in for a drink but the food looked like solid pub grub. A beer - battered fish and chips looked to die for and the hog roast might have tempted us back if it wasn't for a family gathering!"
"Good! Yummy food, nice booze, close to the sea. Quite busy but a vote of success, no doubt".
"Has the potential to be a lovely place but disappointed with staff and over priced food. Lovely location and barbeque good idea but closed early".

Comments from my guests 2011 - The Anchor Bleu
As I flick through the pages of our restaurant view book which the guests have filled in, I can see some very favourable comments - think we must be lucky to find so many different restaurants nearby
The Anchor Bleu is in Bosham - beautiful village which you can either drive to, or take a ferry from the bottom of the road in Itchenor and then have a good walk. Bosham is steeped in history and the church is well worth a visit.
"Highly recommended - especially on the verandah at high tide!! Delicious food with lots of choice - especially seafood"
"Reliable - great crab and crayfish salad. Gets very full at lunchtime - go early. Great views".
"Crayfish tartlet very good. Greek salad very good. Decent merlot and good cask veers. Proper Pub Atmos:
"Anchor Bleu at Bosham is excellent"

Comments from my guests 2011 - The Royal Oak
Again, taken from our restaurant review book which is left out for the guests to add to....
The Royal Oak, East Lavant - this is about 20 minutes drive from Church Gate and is therefore not quite on our doorstep
"Unusual scene, very good food, large choice for lunch"

Comments from my guests 2011 - The Beach House
Taken from my 'Local Restaurant Reviews' which my guests add to...
The Beach House is in West Wittering - another bed and breakfast with some family rooms - but also has a restaurant too
"There at lunchtime - our ciabatta were good and we ogled at the more substantial meals served either side of us. From the road the place looked less promising than we had envisaged but inside was lovely with genuine 'beach house' decor".
"Excellent. Ate there twice in our four day stay. Food tasty and well cooked, very pleasant room, no - or low - music (a big plus) and SUCH good staff. Can they open in Kent?"
"Open all day (high summer) - a plus when you're cycling, it's 4pm and one of you fancies tea and cake, and the other a cold beer and calamari! Good vibe and friendly, helpful staff".

Comments from my guests 2011 - The Ship Inn
These are gleaned from the book which I leave out for my guests to scribble in - useful for all who visit our b & b near West Wittering.
The Ship Inn is in Itchenor on Chichester Harbour....
"...attentive friendly service. We went on Locals Night (Wednesday) which meant reduced price drinks and meals!! The food was good 'hearty harbour rustic! Atmosphere was great, landlord was very welcoming. Fantastic, Peckham by the Sea"
"Food good, portions enormous. Good wines by the glass. No music and liked relaxed atmosphere and friendly service"
"What a convenient watering hole just 10 minutes walk (from Church Gate). the place never failed to surprise us and delight us. Good food, at very reasonable prices and attentive staff. What more could you ask for?"
"Very handy with a nice stroll to the harbour before and after the substantial meal! Friendly service too".
"A good location - 10 minutes walk and two minutes from the harbour afterwards. Efficient service and wholesome, hot food".
"OK, just typical pub food and not too expensive".
"Good beer, friendly staff. From the plates of food we saw coming out, the fish and chips seemed to be the thing to go for and it was very good!"
"Convenient. Had one great meal, one terrible. HUGE portions! Pleasant staff. Don't go on a Sunday".
"Great service and good quality food and walking distance.
"Same thoughts as many others. Nice atmosphere, large portions and good service considering how busy it was".
