Reviews of Pallant Cafe

We had our wonderful wedding reception at the Pallant Café on Monday and it was absolutely amazing. The food was so delicious, all our guests commented on how incredible it was. The local wine and beer was sensational too. The organisation was faultless and we had the most perfect time here, it really made our day special. As we were a party of 30 this venue was a perfect size, it was the most intimate and personal venue. I have to say I was very impressed with all the staff but we have to say a personal thank you to the manager Charlie who was phenomenonal from the start. His communication was excellent and he really took the time to listen to what we wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. We are so grateful. We look forward to returning in the near future and we know more of the wedding party will follow. I highly recommend the Pallant café, especially if you are considering a private function.

It is the first time I have eaten here for many months and I was pleasantly surprised. Stopped for lunch and sat inside, outside was already busy and all the tables were reserved - note: if you want lunch, best reserve a table, especially if you want to sit outside on a lovely summer day. The service was okay; the servers were attentive and the food and drinks arrived quickly. The food was appealing and tasty, though the lunch menu lacked choice. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would certainly return. Accessibility: I use an electric wheelchair and was hesitant I would find a space but the layout of the restaurant is spacious with room to manoeuvre to your table. The area around the front entrance is a little tight, though. There is an accessible toilet available just down the hall which was well equipped and spacious and provided ample space for my wheelchair.

This cafe is absolutely lovely. Attached to the main gallery. Cafe has three different seating area option, main dining room, courtyard (if the weather is nice) and the little lobby area of the gallery. Cafe is dog friendly which is perfect. We loved everything we ate. Fresh ingredients and flavour. Sparkling elderflower was really refreshing and not too sweet. Very good service as well :)

A nicely decorated cafe attached to the must-see art gallery. Has a short but interesting menu and good cooking. The set lunch is good value. The cafe has both indoor and courtyard seating. Overflow tables in the foyer sometimes. Lovely staff but they can get a bit harassed as the cafe can get very busy. I'd recommend booking in advance.

Excellent food with an interesting menu, the "Jacob's Ladder" steak blade available on Friday evenings' steak nights is worth a visit in its own right! The city-centre restaurant is incorporated within Chichester's world-class Pallant Art Gallery but is also open outside of the gallery's opening hours. Very pleasant wine garden is an added bonus. Sadly, there is no attached parking but there are plenty of 'pay and display' car parks within easy reach, although these can get quite crowded during the day.
