Tides

Head down to Goring-by-Sea and you'll find Tides tucked away on Aldsworth Avenue, the sort of neighbourhood spot locals have quietly been raving about for years. You're getting proper restaurant standards here—the kind of place where they know what they're doing with fish—but without the stuffiness you'd expect at these prices. The room feels intimate without being cramped, and there's a genuine neighbourhood feel, especially in the evenings when the tables fill up with people who actually live round here rather than day-trippers. It's the kind of restaurant you'll return to, not because you felt obligated, but because you genuinely want the excuse to go back.
