The Oystercatcher - Littlehampton

We came to the restaurant for our office Christmas dinner and Liz was fantastic! She was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and we would definitely recommend trying the Festive Menu. We all ordered different dishes and everyone rated them highly.

Service from Liz is always spot on. Always a smile and nothing is too much trouble. The food is good and well presented and arrives in a timely manner. A little noisy at times, but that is to be expected at peak/holiday times. The only criticism is that it can get quite warm inside which is a bit uncomfortable for the staff as well as the customer.

Liz provided us with excellent service, as she has done for many years. She is a valuable asset to your company. She always gives great recommendations from the menu, which were simply outstanding. Thank you.

I booked the table the usual way with 3 guests. Arrived just before 2 and was advised I wasn't on list and no tables available. I showed the Manager my booking and confirmation, she thought I must have been talking about somewhere else. There it was on my phone. She had a table in the back room, if we wanted to wait. We waited and 20 mins later our table was ready, good. One of my guests had the roast turkey, just one slice and lots of skin and fat. Overdone veg. We all had different and my lunch was just okay. Same with other guest just OK. We had our lunch at 3.30.arrived at 1.50 for 2 o clock. I use the Oyster Catcher all the time but didn't know the Manager. Emma is a lovely lady and helped us, but my guest refused to send the turkey back. All in all not the experience it should have been. In my opinion for what it's worth, the place was overbooked, many items had run out. We came away very unhappy.

The atmosphere was delightful, the service was excellent, and the food selection was top-notch. Our meals were all delicious, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. The Flowerpot dessert was not only visually stunning but also incredibly tasty. We are so happy we chose to dine at The Oyster Catcher and will definitely be returning in the future.
