Watkins Commercial is delighted to bring to the market this beautifully presented bar and
kitchen, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a thriving hospitality business occupying a
premier trading pitch along Marine Parade in Worthing. Positioned in the heart of the town’s
vibrant seafront, the premises command exceptional visibility, high pedestrian footfall, and
panoramic views across the English Channel. A key commercial attribute of the venue is its
dedicated outdoor seating terrace, enabling patrons to dine al fresco while enjoying
uninterrupted coastal vistas—a proven footfall driver throughout the spring and summer
seasons and a major factor in the business’s strong local standing. Internally, the restaurant
delivers a relaxed yet lively ambience supported by an adaptable culinary concept. The
current offering spans daytime brunch, curated small plates, and hearty evening mains,
anchored by a highly lucrative bottomless brunch served seven days a week. Trading
successfully for more than four years, the business has cultivated an established regular
clientele and strong visitor goodwill, underscored by robust online review profiles including
4.1★ on Google and 4.4★ on Facebook. Coming to the market due to the vendors’ decision
to concentrate on other commercial ventures.
