Cassons
Cassons Restaurant
A Michelin Guide-listed country restaurant in a rustic old brick-and-timber house, serving hearty modern British food.
Located in the village of Tangmere, about 5 km east of Chichester, the restaurant occupies an old building with exposed brick walls and timber beams that create a warm atmosphere. The kitchen builds on classic techniques, adding modern methods and a touch of international flavour. The Michelin Guide notes its generous portions. Dishes include pan-seared sea bass with brown shrimp butter, served with spinach, olive oil mash and chilli oil; shawarma-spiced duck breast; and South Downs lamb rump made with local lamb. Sunday lunch is equally good and more affordable. It opens only Thursday to Saturday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes, so book ahead. Parking is available; you'll need a car or taxi to get here.
Opening hours
Thursday to Saturday 18:30–23:00; Sunday 12:00–15:00; closed Monday to Wednesday
