Wellies Tearooms

Lovely warm cafe with super helpful and friendly staff, difficult food choices when everything looked appetising. Comfortable with a mezzanine, interesting decor and in no rush to leave. Would definitely visit again.

Located in a rural area right near Kingley Vale this busy little café has a great atmosphere and the staff are very welcoming. The food was really good and the ingredients in the fry up were top notch. I'd particularly recommend the 'trough' which was really tasty. Nice touches like the individual marmalades and twine wrapped around your cutlery. The toilet was pretty impressive too! We will go again.

A real gem of a place, located in a beautiful part of West Sussex. Wellies Tearooms is a wonderful place for a spot of lunch. In the summer, you can also sit outside on the decking (A preferred spot for the passing cyclists). The menu (Featured in my pictures) has a nice selection and the food we’ve had here has always been top notch. On this occasion, we had items from the main lunch menu, plus a glass of bubbly to celebrate the festive season (not myself, as I was the designated driver). I would recommend this place to everyone, but if you turn up and it’s busy, don’t be surprised, but it’s worth the wait!

A lovely cream tea for my birthday from my daughter Claire.We had a super cream tea. My daughter in law came with us, a really nice afternoon had by all.

After a lovely walk at the nature reserve today, we noticed a this lovely tearoom & myself, partner, son & daughter in law & 3 dogs, all visited for a nice warm drink, we recieved such a warm welcome from all staff as we entered, we looked at menu & immediately agreed to have our lunch here too 😀, the staff here are so friendly, very good service & so accomadating with dogs too! The food was so delicious & did not have to wait very long, would definitely recommend to others to visit, we will definitely be returning. Thank you 😊

Nice place to come and eat with friendly staff. Never been before and until now and only a stones throw if coming from Chichester way. Perfect if most other places are busy with easy parking. Definitely would like to come back again when the weather is warmer.

Hidden Gem!
We were on our way home from East Sussex to Hampshire and desperately wanted to stop somewhere for a nice cup of coffee and a cake. Avoiding Chichester we found this little beauty on the map and decided to head out.

Despite it being super busy and practically full (would recommend ringing ahead just to avoid disappointment), the wonderful waitress squeezed us onto a little table out in their yard with a bench either side. We ordered two iced coffees (not on the menu, but were made to order with coffee ice cream and coffee), and two fruit scones with jam and cream.

Needless to say we weren't disappointed, the iced coffee was absolutely to die for and was so tasty and refreshing, absolutely what we needed whilst we were sat in the sun. The scones came out not too long after and were still warm from the oven. Perfectly cooked with a lovely crunch on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. It came with a pot of Roddas clotted cream (is there any other?) and a little pot of strawberry jam. Both were delicious and generous portions for the scone and over all we thoroughly enjoyed it (I love a good fresh homemade scone).

I would absolutely recommend this little hidden gem to anyone driving past or who doesn't mind a trip out of the town. There is a nature reserve and Kingley Vale only 5 minutes drive down the road which makes for a wonderful afternoon. Staff were really accommodating and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The waitress even came and offered us a table under a parasol once they had one free as the clouds soon disappeared and the heat ramped up. These small gestures truly stick with us as it reflects the staff caring about their patrons and making that extra effort to make us welcome.

Please pop in for a visit you will not regret it!

Our favourite place to go for breakfast and lunch. Super good and the most amazing staff.
