What a great little place!! We had set a route from home in Essex to Arundel on Google Maps and I scrolled to the first part of the route where we got off the motorways and asked it to search for cafes in that area and it brought up Dennie's. The reviews were good so we added it as a stop and what a stop! It's a bijou building at the side of the road with some kerbside parking outside and along stretches of the road. My advice would be to put the nearside wheels of your vehicle on the kerb to make sure passing lorries have enough room although the road is more than wide enough. There was a table and chairs outside but once you step inside it's like a small cabin with the counter/kitchen in front of you and the walls decked with mugs etc. There is a small set of stairs in the back left corner that lead you up to the first floor where there are 2x 2 seater tables, a small couch and coffee table and the toilet. It really is compact in a great way. We we upstairs and I ordered the full English with a white Americano and wifey had the scrambled eggs on toast and an orange juice. The food was delivered promptly and was clearly cooked freshly to order and it was delicious. It's obviously a very popular place with locals and regulars as a load of the trade is takeaway and he was busy throughout our stopover. I'm not sure if you can order by phone and pick up or whether you have to order in person and wait as it is cooked and packed. Either way it's a great place to spend some time relaxing while you wait. The owner, I'm ashamed to say I didnt ask his name, is a friendly guy who is willing to chat and listen and will tell you all about his change from business to being a cafe owner and chef. We had a great time there and the food was outstanding. Thanks for a great visit and good luck with it all. I've tried to load the pictures in a logical order but it won't play

Always stop here when we can / are passing on a family outing this way, I wish this cafe was round the corner from our house. Would your cafe owner stop traffic so you can park and get coffee whilst the kids are being crazy? This cafe owner does. Welcoming every time, and great coffee and snacks.

Great little tea shop folks! Small & cozy ! Best visited on a rainy day with a pot of tea for two ! Just a shame the A272 is constantly hounded by road works

A tiny cafe with a big warm heart serving delicious coffee and sandwiches. We pop in here on the way to Worthing to see our old folks. Now they look forward to Dennie's tuna sandwich every time.

Small, cosy, quaint and relaxed little cafe that we had the pleasure to pop into on way back from Gatwick to Chichester. Great coffee, nice cakes and friendly owner. Will be dropping in again.

Great place to take out or eat in. There is a small seating area upstairs which is very cosy. The owner is very accommodating and does a great range of sandwiches and the coffee is delicious. Always a welcome as you walk in the door so if you are in Cowfold it's well worth a visit. Parking can be a bit tight outside but you can normally find a spot.
