Tidy - We have been visiting Drifter's for nearly 8 years now and have seen staff come and go. The layout has changed but so has the service, it had struggled like most during and after Covid with staff, but it has slowly been getting back to its original form.
We visited with friends once again and although the odd hiccup, the service was pleasant and adequate for our needs. Decor is Surf / rustic style as you would expect. The seats could do with a bit of maintenance, as most were flimsy. Booking has been dropped and it's first come first served. The drink menu was plentiful and had a good range of soft, mock, cocktail, alcoholic and hot drinks to satisfy all types.
Food range was ok if a little limited. Our thoughts were that Drifters is missing something maybe signature menu to make it stand out from the others, only time will tell. Nevertheless it took a long time between starter and main. Luckily we were not in any rush.
Overall it still needs more focus on outstanding dishes, if it is to continue with limited choice on the menu and win new customers over in the future....4/5
Found this place after we had a nice walk along the beach. Everything was just perfect. Glad we went to this place. Have to recommend the Sharer platter even though I didn't have it. The table in front of us had it, and it looks like one of the best Platter I have seen. I had the Posh Fish Finger's and it was so delicious and tasty and fresh it made me want to go again. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is the bacon butty as it looks dry and the bread was hard. But my posh fish fingers was moist, and my bread was fine for this dish. Mum and my sister shared flatbread, and they look amazing.Milkshake was really refreshing and nice after a walk. Will come back again when I have the chance
Fast and really tasty take out. 3x south fern fried chicken and chips plus 1x whitebait with chips. Freshly cooked by a chef with a quirky sense of humour. All eaten watching the sun go down in the beach.
The best place for a really delicious lunch and cocktails by the beach. The vanilla espresso martini was a complete live changer especially on a hot day. The staff are so lovely and we got chatting for ages. Not just business at Drifters, but they genuinely care about their patrons. We ended up here on the spur of the moment decision on the last day of my birthday trip to the beach and I genuinely didn't want to leave. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the Witterings.
Lovely place to stop for a drink after a long walk along the beach, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Only knocking off a star as my hot chocolate wasn't quite mixed properly and had a lump of powder at the bottom.
Tried this place last night. They were busy but got us a table. Manageress was really friendly. OUr Waitress was friendly and gave us just the right amount of attention. Food was great and I mean great. We had a small cockapoo and he was allowed in also. Very fresh ingredients. We will if passing definitely go back.. Thankyou..
We went for an evening drink/cocktail while staying in the area (and also a morning coffee). Lovely outdoor seating area. Great list of drinks and a lovely chilled vibe with warm and welcoming staff. Definitely recommend for a sundowner! We would also have eaten if we didn’t have our dog with us who gets bored after about 10 minutes!
I like the style of a wooden beach hut, located also very close to the beach.
Good selection of breakfast dishes, very delicious and well prepared. All in combination gives a nice relaxing holiday feeling, recommended.
Sympathic staff and quick service.
Great place to eat in East Wittering, we had the Surf Platter for two and pulled Beef Nachos which were excellent. Good choice of drinks and friendly helpful staff in a beautiful location.
Amazing atmosphere and food was delicious. Really friendly staff, couldn’t have been more helpful. Highly recommend ❤️
