Hi all, we are taking a short break to Hayling Island. Does anyone have any recommendations of places to eat near here. We are staying in the north coast of the island, and we don't mind driving. Thanking you in advance.

Bobby, PM Ian Shaw (rarely visit Forum). He lives very close-by.
I'm pretty sure what his recommendation will be.

Fat Olives in Emsworth. I’m fairly certain Ian has been a couple of times since lockdown & they remained on good form. Best if he confirms, though.Thank you Mark! Do you fancy sharing what your gut reaction is?

36 on the quay, also in emsworth? Not sure if they are any good these days. Used to have a star.
Or drive 45 minutes east and I’ll gladly host a bbq!

This is the second thread within a day which reminds me of places I knew but haven't visited for some time! I used to live in Emsworth in the early '80s - I'd have to say if there was anywhere notable at the time I didn't discover it, so when my parents visited we either ate at home or went a bit further afield...

That is brilliant guys. Thank you. Will look into the options but sounds like Emsworth is the place to go.

Bobby if you take a day trip to Arundel then try the Parsons Table - very good solid food in a nice environment and on Weds eve they used to do corkage at £5/bot bit not sure post Covid if this is the case.

Bit late to this Bobby but if you find yourself around Chichester for the day the Royal Oak at Lavant was always a favourite with a good list.

Thanks all. We are struggling to utilize any suggestions since we are going at awkward times, Sunday through to Tuesday. We were even willing to drive to Lavant to the Royal Oak, but sadly they are also closed on a Sunday and Monday evening.

They have a sister pub/restaurant Bobby the White Horse Chilgrove which is open until 7pm Sunday and Monday evenings until 9pm.

I might be wrong but Chilgrove may be home to Four Walls Wine as well.

That wasn't quite what I meant, Tom.
White Horse is part of the same group the Royal Oak in Lavant I recco'd.
The list doesn't look quite as keen as either the Royal Oak or perhaps days of yore but if every pub in the land had a list like that I'd be happy!

I did see the four walls store next door when looking on google maps. Considering it will be over half an hour drive each way, probably best that there isn't too much enticement from the wine list.
