Four Chesnuts

You'll find Four Chesnuts tucked away on Oving Road where The Hornet curves round — the kind of place that actually feels like it belongs to Chichester rather than existing for tourists. The pub has that unhurried, genuine vibe where regulars prop up the bar and conversations drift between football and the state of things generally. They take their food seriously enough without getting pretentious about it, and the drinks selection suggests someone actually cares what goes in your glass. It's become the sort of place you keep going back to because it's comfortable, the staff know what they're doing, and there's no performance involved.
