Food scene

The pizza here is wonderful. It has some unusual stuff on the menu - but it really works! My favourite is the 'Green Goddess' and my husband loves 'Puttanesca'. Our kids love the sweet pizza, which is chocolate, maple and pecan.

Incredible Mexican street food - just down the road from our house. It's only open Thurs-Saturday in the evening but is well worth a visit. They do great Margarita's too.

Situated on the end of Worthing Pier this is a recent addition to Worthing and has been carefully updated to reflect the Art Deco style. Get a seat by the window and your view is the sea! Upstairs you can lounge and get coffee. The food is fantastic and it's a real experience.

A brilliant and rustic cafe on the beach a short walk from the house. We love this place for the atmosphere and indoor and outdoor space. They serve food and beverages and play good music and you get to look out to sea. They often have music nights at the weekend from 80s to Jungle - so worth keeping an eye out for what's on.

This is a fantastic open air space featuring a range of food and drink stalls. It was created out of an old car park, but looks out to sea. They have heated seats so if you like fresh air it works all year round (well mostly)!!

Pubs

This is our favourite local pub and is just at the end of the road. They serve wonderful booze and food and it has a great atmosphere. A great roast on a Sunday (but you need to book as it gets busy). If you are around on Monday night they have the best pub quiz, which I go to every week. They even have a clay modelling round!
