The Beach House

You're sat right on Marine Parade with the sea stretching out in front of you—no pretence, just good sightlines and salt air. The Beach House does what it does without fussing: grilled meats and fish cooked properly, with sides that don't feel like an afterthought. It's the sort of venue that works equally well for a casual midweek dinner or when you've got people visiting from out of town who want to see why you banged on about Worthing's seafront. Service is genuinely friendly rather than stuffy, and the place has that rare quality of feeling local without being intimidating.
