Community is the word here. EVERY penny raised from the sale of their quirky, vintage, retro items goes to the Community. The sale tickets are often naughty but always funny

I made a small order on behalf of my partner who wanted to gift some chocolates for Christmas to my mother.  The attention to detail in noticing the address and making sure that the gift was sent correctly to the right person was checked. I received an email minutes after the order was placed and 5 days before Christmas by Hayley Gardner-Clark Director/Owner of Castle Chocolates of Arundel Ltd. Noticing that they could deliver it by hand they made an exception and hand-delivered with an extra treat to compensate for the delivery costs.  To summarize the review on the chocolate, my mother was over the moon like a greedy child in a chocolate store. (She loved them)

The range is ever changing but always includes jewellery, art, lighting, baby & christening, wedding & anniversary gifts. We are stockists for Nemesis collectibles and Betty Boop. From pocket money to luxury, there is something for every budget. Due to the social distancing regulations we are open on the ground floor only for the time being. We have re-arranged the shop to enable safe use of the shop and to display many of the items we used to have for sale on the first floor.

Pier Road Coffee & Art

Local Gallery that sells quality art and craft from 90% of local artists. Beautiful Coffee from £1.50 cake from £1.40 and soft drinks too! We have vegan, gluten free options. The gallery is dog friendly. We also sell Ice Cream made by local company Sussex Ice Cream Company. We also offer Art Courses, see gallery or Facebook Events for details.

Reviewed By lucyg150 - Littlehampton, United Kingdom

Mostly local artists, with a great range of prices, and the exhibitions change monthly... Not intimidating at all to visit. Delicious locally made cakes, excellent Lavazza coffee, local tea from Hoogly and, for those with a sweet tooth, a Supersonic Hot Chocolate! Well worth a visit! Mike worked really hard during the pandemic with regular video tours of the gallery, lockdown deliveries and competitions, development of a website and regular social media updates. This is one local business that deserves to succeed.

Snook's Gift Boutique

Reviewed By MumsterAndsons

A really fabulous little gift boutique. A great range of unusual and quirky gifts for all people young and old and for all occasions. I’ve also treated myself to a couple of ‘must have/ can’t live without’ items one of which I have attached a picture of (I have a passion for sausage dogs) too...... difficult not to !!

Reviewed By Patricia71409

Visited this shop looking for military buttons for a forthcoming project. Owner was so helpful and provided a whole tin for me to sort through. Found the specific style I was looking for for-lion and crown. At only 25p a button this was ideal and found 8 identical. Owner so knowledgeable and a good conversation was had while sorting buttons and checking other items. Some great paintings in there too. Check out Boris Johnson! Cleaned up and beautiful and shiny now.
