Drew Pritchard in Arundel Today and a Plethora of Eateries.
Good Morning from Arundel Eccentrics.
Firstly, watch out for Drew Pritchard filming in Arundel today.
I gather they are round at our warehouses at the moment.
Here are a few of our latest antique pieces
you will find all our latest stock on
I am busy gilding this week
Turning vintage enamel scruffy bowls like this
into this
It's a huge amount of work but worth it
and of course, I do have my support staff.
Now 6 months old.
Secondly eateries......
Visiting Arundel, or maybe live here and fancy eating out?
How to make your mind up
Heres a few suggested by Trip Advisor.
I noticed we have a new eatery here in Arundel, where once an antique shop stood.
It got me thinking about just how many other cafes and restaurants we have here.
So, I set off to locate them all.
Nearest to our antiques warehouse there is Gaskyns.
http://www.gaskyns.co.uk/
A family-run restaurant that also sells wholefoods.
They have the most fabulous seeded bread, by the way.
Next door is the White Hart.
Affectionately known in our house and The Office.
As it's frequented regularly by Nass, my husband.
He says a lot of networking goes on there re business, but I have to say, I have my doubts.

Over the road is Trawlers the fish and chip shop.

Sit by the river at The Edible Sandwich

and
the Waterside Cafe

If you wanted to go further down the river there is The Black Rabbit at the end of Mill Road.
A lovely meandering walk along the river first before lunch?
Car parking and plenty of outside tables, plus a lovely view towards Arundel and the castle.

On the way, you would pass the Pitch and Putt which is open from the Spring.
They have a small cafe area.
Then there's Swanbourne Lake.
Sit outside on a sunny day and watch the wildlife on the lake.
Or take a walk right around the lake and finish with a cuppa.

Or visit The Wetland Centre, also on Mill Road where they have a lovely restaurant.

the Italian ambience is so good.

It's been a part of our lives.
Down to Valentines surprises to being served in the middle of Arundel High Street.

The Norfolk Tap Bar has just opened.

Craft beer and coffee shop.
La Campania on the corner of Tarrant Street
https://www.lacampania.co.uk/
This was for many years our museum building.
It was totally revamped by Prezzo.
Sadly I think this is one of the Prezzos about to be axed.
It will be interesting to see who goes in here.
There has been much speculation on FB as to what people would like to see.
Thai restaurant has come up high.
I would love to see something like a Bills, so we also get a good vegetarian menu.
But....of course, it could stand empty for a while.
It all depends on who has the funds for what I am pretty sure is a very hefty rent.
China Palace is a rather lovely ...well, you get the picture, it's in the name.
The Town House is right next door
https://www.thetownhouse.co.uk/
Small intimate, lovely food.
If you fancy waffles and ice cream
Heres the parlour for you

http://www.thebaytreearundel.co.uk/
Lovely ambiance and food
small patio out back for when the sun shines.
The newly revamped and transformed Butlers.
They have done a remarkable job on the building and decor and the food is lovely.
Spacious.
Outside eating available.

This was Berties for the past 5 years and is now under new ownership as Juniper.
Nice story attached to this as they were customers who loved going to the little cafe.
When Jenny and Russell heard Dean had decided to sell they decided to take the plunge themselves.
Good Luck with it all guys.

This is a great favourite with locals.
The Parsons Table.
Slightly hidden away in Tarrant Street, it's well worth seeking out.

The Eagle.
great home cooked food and well known for it's live music.
