Fig Cafe & Tapas — Restaurant in Arun

First visit here tonight and will be returning again and again, absolutely fabulous! A great new restaurant for Rustington, a wonderful addition to the village. Lovely welcome by the staff. Great choice of tapas, hard to choose which dishes to have. My friend and I chose 5 dishes. All served gradually so didn't have to eat all at once. What a feast for the eyes and taste buds. Delicious dishes: spinach and aubergines, prawn piri piri, meatballs, Manchego cheese/serrano ham/chicken skewers and halloumi with fig chilli jam. Superb presentation, amazing taste and good sized portions. We made room for dessert, homemade honeycomb ice cream and fig pavlova, just divine. Next time I will not eat all day so I've room to eat it all! This restaurant has success written all over it. Fully booked tonight, as I imagine it is most of the time, I'd recommend a visit here soon. The decor is lovely, maybe just a bit too bright with the lighting, but otherwise just perfect. Look forward to visiting again soon, with...

My wife booked The Fig for Afternoon Tea. I was a bit hesitant as its not something I thought they would specialised in. How wrong I was ! First we were informed of what it consisted of rather than just blonk it on the table so they could be sure we were happy before we started. Then it came out. It started with a hot miniature tomato and pepper soup in a small cup, followed by warm rarebit bites then the hearty sandwiches. The savory part was served on a nice wooden wheel. The dessert side consisted of a warm, very airy and light scone with fresh clotted cream and what tasted like homemade jam, then a type of lemon mousse with biscuit and then the cakes. Everything homemade and well done. I personally find Afternoon Teas don't have enough savoury bits to it but this one did with some unique little twists. Highly...
