The Bosham Inn in Chichester is a country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character. Our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Whether you are planning dinner with friends or Sunday lunch with family, book a table online and enjoy some quality time with those you love the most.

Bosham Inn is a beautiful listed building which sits at the head of the picturesque Chichester harbour. A former vicarage for the parish, it has been painstakingly restored having previously been reincarnated as a hotel and a Victorian dining house. The Inn is marked on a map of 1875 as Hamstead House where it is shown opposite a disused malthouse.

Overlooking Chichester harbour, our beautiful listed pub is near Bosham and the picturesque village of Chidham

    Unfortunately we had a party of 14 people and found the vegetables were undercooked. Whilst the parsnips were overcooked to a point where they had become chewy. So the standard of the food has dropped dramatically since my last visit

    Lovely pub and food but portion size was very disappointing for the cost! A few of us had the skewers and they were all warm rather than hot

    Having eaten here several times before, we decided to go for dinner with friends Friday evening. Sadly we didn't have a good time. We were shown a table, then waited half an hour before anyone came to take a drink or food order, no reason given for delay or an apology. Sadly my steak pie contained no meat, which was a disappointment. Our waiter half heartedly told us he would inform the chef, unsure if he did or not. We ordered dessert which took forever to appear, I then had to ask for my coffee as it had been forgotten. It has always been a nice place to visit for dinner or just drinks with friends, however our recent experience has now put us off.

    Four of us visited here for Sunday lunch before two of us travelled home to South Wales. Our friends who live nearby in Horndean had not been previously but will certainly make it a regular visit in the future. The food was local sourced freshly made and was cooked to perfection. I had the Lamb Shank and have never tasted better. Complements to the Chef. I will definitely visit again whenever in the area.

    Five of us dined there for Sunday lunch. We all enjoyed our meals and though the portions were very generous, we cleared our plates.

    Good food and service BUT didn't appreciate being told by who I presume was the manager that we could only have the table for 2 hours as it was booked by somebody else!

    The table was perfect as we had asked for space for a pram and we had plenty of room. Disappointingly some elements of the menu were unavailable- which seemed strange for a Saturday night. The food we did order was beautifully cooked and presented. The service let our experience down. We had to ask for the bill twice, then ask to pay several times until we got a little assertive sadly. Our waitress was busy filling pots with mayo and ketchup and chatting to her colleague to come and take our money. Sad finish to a pleasant evening

    Friendly greeting on arrival and aware of booking. Drinks order taken promptly and arrived quickly. Food ordered and arrived in a timely manner. Fish and chips were super - so hot and obviously straight out of the fryer. Mushy peas could have been a bit hotter. Good portions and partner's meal equally good. Nice atmosphere especially as it was sunny. Been here before and will definitely visit again. Service also good. Thank you.
