  1. A

    West's Bar & Lounge

    Tempt God to strike you down by doing shots, downing cocktails and watching football in this converted Gothic church opposite the cathedral. Its soaring arches, dark wooden ceiling and candlelit tables add weight and atmosphere to what's basically just a trendy wine bar.

    Chichester Festival Theatre

    This somewhat Soviet-looking playhouse was built in 1962 and has a long and distinguished history. Sir Laurence Olivier was the theatre's first director and Ingrid Bergman, Sir John Gielgud and Sir Anthony Hopkins are a few of the other famous names to have played here.

  3. Wests Bar

    Occupying every nook and chapel of a large church opposite the cathedral entrance, this daytime temple to tummy-packing and evening ale sanctuary allows you to refuel and kick back in an incongruously ecclesiastical setting. The sinful menu of British pub favourites, pseudo-Italian concoctions and spicy fare is sure to bust your bible belt and invoke a holy thirst.
