The Hole in the Wall

You'll find yourself down a narrow street in the heart of Chichester, pushing through a door that's been welcoming regulars for decades. The Hole in the Wall is exactly what it says on the tin—low ceilings, creaky floorboards, the sort of place where locals prop up the bar and know the landlord by name. There's nothing performative about it. The real ales rotate properly, the food is proper pub fare done without fuss, and you'll catch everything from quiet weekday afternoons to a proper buzz on match days. It's the kind of pub you'd miss if you blinked, tucked away as it is, but once you've found it you'll keep coming back.
