If you like your food served with a side of stunning view, you’re going to want to book at table at Boat House pronto. Overlooking the bobbing boats of Chichester Marina, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Muddy loves the coastal vibes of this contemporary restaurant celebrating local, seasonal produce in style.

Whether you’re popping in for brunch, light lunch or a three-course dinner, there’s a menu to match. As you’d expect from a waterfront eatery, the fish and seafood offer is strong, from Tempura fish tacos and Goan cod curry to dressed crab and a towering seafood platter including baked scallops, prawns and salt and pepper squid. When the sun’s shining (or setting), order your food, grab a cocktail and head for the shingle garden and terrace overlooking the picturesque harbour, when things get chilly the cosy atmosphere and blue and wood decor indoors is equally inviting. 

After a lighter bite? The Boat House Café’s a relaxing space where you can enjoy a coffee and slice of cake or cold-pressed juice until 4pm, while chic new shack the Lobster Hatch means you can now order lobster, burgers and herb-seasoned fries to take away from noon-8pm in the summer. 

A lobster and prawn roll washed down with a glass of something chilled and bubbly at sunset? It’s a yes from Muddy!
