Wonderful open seafood spot on Worthing Promenade close to the pier and Lido. Very friendly couple who run it and extremely reason prices and good size portions. Large selection of both seafood and drinks. Love this little place when it's open, nothing better than being on the beach with a pot of cockles and muscles or a fantastic seafood platter on a sunny afternoon. Thank you. :-)

Thanks for your kind comments, it really is appreciated, hope to see you again soon
It's my favourite spot for oysters with amazing view. Usually taking the dressed crab with us all the way back to Oxford. Coming here for the last 4 years already everytime we are in Worthing. Owners are super kind and nice.

5 star food, 5 star service and definitely 5 star value! I ordered a Lobster Platter for my husbands birthday and it was absolutely delicious. I was expecting to have to collect it but was told that they would be happy to deliver at no extra cost! The seafood was so fresh and had only been cooked on the morning of the delivery! I would highly recommend The Shellfish Shack and will definitely be ordering again! Thanks for an excellent eating experience.Owner response

Thanks Lucy...
Highly recommend this place. Chatty staff, and it's licensed. I had a freshly made crab sandwich and a perfectly chilled glass of chardonnay to wash it down with. They have a few tables so I ate there with a view straight out to sea. I was unmolested by seagulls, strangely! The rest of the seafood selection looked delicious. Lovely little lunch stop.

Owner response
Thanks Chris....very much appreciated.
Without doubt, the best cockles I've ever tasted. And by the way, I'm a lifelong cockle mentalist! Great portion sizes and plenty of pepper and Tabasco. Lovely service too. I'd highly recommend this place.

Thanks Simon..
Went just after Christmas visiting family and got some beautiful oysters - kindly 'cracked' for me to open at home - and a pot of cockles. A great independent addition to Worthing.

Thanks Sean... much appreciated
Their fresh seafood alone made the trip from London totally worthwhile. With a friendly smile as a bonus. Loved it!

Had many crab sandwiches from Cromer in Norfolk, but have to say these were the best I've tasted in a long time!
