Our Story

The Boulevard began in the 1980s with a passion for great food and community. Founded by husband-and-wife duo Paul and Celia, our story is one of dedication to serving fresh, wholesome meals to the growing Wittering community and its seasonal visitors.

Starting with a simple menu of pies and battered fish, Paul and Celia quickly realised the need to diversify. They introduced a style of "quick casual" dining that prioritised high-quality food, warm hospitality, and efficient service—ensuring no customer had to wait longer than necessary.

In 2008, we expanded to Selsey, taking over the beloved Riviera restaurant. We gave it new life as our sister site, introducing a traditional carvery alongside our signature dishes. Today, both locations continue to offer delicious, honest food in a welcoming atmosphere.

Our Mission

At The Boulevard, we are dedicated to delivering consistent quality and innovation.

Our goal is simple: to serve classic dishes done exceptionally well. While we’re not about reinventing the wheel, we embrace new techniques and flavours that enhance the familiar favourites our customers know and love.

Dining with us isn’t just about the food—it’s about the experience..

Whether it’s a quick bite or a long, leisurely meal, we pride ourselves on creating a warm, inviting space where everyone feels at home.

Our Food

Our menu is a celebration of Anglo-American cuisine, blending tradition with a modern touch. From hearty English breakfasts and American-style pancakes to handmade burgers, succulent roasts, and indulgent desserts, there’s something for everyone at The Boulevard.

We take pride in sourcing the finest British ingredients: free-range eggs, responsibly produced meats, and local produce that speaks to our commitment to quality. For those with specific dietary needs, we offer plenty of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, as well as lighter choices like fresh salads and wraps.

Thanks to our efficient, no-booking policy and spacious venues, we’re ready to welcome you at a moment’s notice—perfect for impromptu gatherings or large crowds.

Our Drinks

No meal is complete without the perfect drink. Our thoughtfully curated wine selection features an array of international favourites, chosen to complement your meal. Whether you’re enjoying a cosy dinner with friends or a celebratory drink, we’ve got something to suit the occasion.

Our Values

Honesty and quality are at the heart of everything we do. We take pride in knowing exactly where our ingredients come from and serving food we’re proud to share. When homemade is best, we craft it ourselves—but when a trusted supplier does it better, we embrace that without compromise.

We believe in offering great value without cutting corners, creating an environment where dining out feels like home. With exceptional service and a commitment to making your experience memorable, we’re here to ensure you leave satisfied and smiling.

So come in, unwind, and let us take care of the rest. At The Boulevard, we strike the perfect balance between competitive prices and uncompromising quality—a place where great food and great memories come together.
