One of my favourite places. Great food, nice people, nice place. I live in France for part of the year and the chef could give the French a good lesson in quality and value (definitely in making you feel welcome). I’ll give their cheese board a special mention ... awesome!

Rowan Was a great waiter. My partner I thought it was better than the giggling squid so that speaks for itself. I really enjoyed the meal. We had a nice day down the beach. We wanted to get seafood- found this place on Google Maps and thought let's try it out needless to say we were very pleased and happy that we did go there. There was a lovely really nice atmosphere (of course I had the best company possible) a really nice place to go with family or friends I imagine you'll definitely have a nice meal and enjoy a nice drink whether it be alcoholic or soft. if you haven't been its definitely worth a visit ?

We found this restaurant by chance. It was very windy and we decided to try the fish and chips next to it, but it was full of people and we decided to try the restaurant. Well, I'm glad we did. They gave us nice double table and we were sat privately. That was lunch time. I had see bream and my wife had soup and salad. It was delicious. Then we came back for dinner later on, after we booked a table. Again, everything was perfect, deliciously cooked and down to the last detail. The staff is polite, the owner was a few times chatting to us, making sure we are all set. Perfect. All perfect. For me, the best restaurant in Littlehampton. A

For those who like seafood, a great place to sit and eat mussels cooked in a tasty, well-designed sauce. Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Other excellent choices available on the elegant menu. Thank you Olaf and everyone!

Food, Service, portion size, is all bang on the money!. The roast dinner was so fresh and massive!, it is far superior to other places in Littlehampton trust me. I'll only go there for a roast dinner from now on.

We had an absolutely delightful experience at 47 Mussel Row in Littlehampton. The food was fresh and bursting with flavour, leaving us craving more with every bite. Starting with the chowder, it was a warm hug on a cold day, rich and creamy with perfectly cooked seafood that melted in our mouths. The scallops were seared to perfection, tender yet with a satisfying caramelized crust, complemented by a delicate sauce that elevated their natural sweetness. The fish and chips were a quintessential British delight, with crispy golden batter giving way to flaky, moist fish that was simply divine. And the mussels! Oh, the mussels were a true standout, plump and juicy in a delectable broth that we couldn't resist sopping up with crusty bread. The service was impeccable, with attentive and friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was cosy and inviting, reminiscent of a small village restaurant where every guest is treated like family. It truly felt like being at mum's house, with comforting food and warm hospitality. We can not recommend 47 Mussel Row highly enough. It's a gem of a restaurant that exceeded all our expectations. We'll definitely be returning for more of their delicious fare and charming atmosphere.

I had the pleasure of dining at 47 Mussel Row, and it was an absolute delight. This charming, cozy restaurant offers lovely service and an impressive selection of dishes. As a huge seafood fan, I started with the scallops and had the crab for my main course—both were incredibly delicious. I have to admit, it was the best crab I've ever had, served with warm, homemade bread. Perfection! I only wish I could have tried more of their mouthwatering creations. Absolutely recommend!
