Perch to open fourth seaside restaurant
The group is opening Perch Pizza at the beachside location in Worthing, which will be its second restaurant in the southern seaside town.
Due to open in mid June, the neighbourhood pizza restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Perch was founded in August 2015 in Lancing by Alexander Coombes. Since then, the team have opened their second venue in Eastbourne’s Prince’s Park in March 2020 and have completed a full renovation of the Southern Pavilion building at the end of Worthing Pier, which opened in April 2022.
Perch Pizza will draw inspiration from its Lancing venue’s popular summer pizza on the beach theme, which returned on 28 April serving a range of pizzas and salads.
"We can’t wait to enhance the already warm, family-friendly vibe and delectable food and drink selection at Worthing’s East Beach,” says Coombes.
"A massive shoutout to Kenny for his invaluable support; we’re overjoyed to know he’ll continue pushing the Worthing food scene forward."
Tutt launched Bayside Social in 2021 in a new luxury development on the West Sussex town’s promenade. The 40-cover restaurant was inspired by the Art Deco-styled beach clubs of Miami’s South Beach.
Last month he announced its closure, saying he wanted to concentrate on his more high-end Worthing restaurant Pitch.
