About Petworth Places
Petworth Places is made up of several teams of dedicated people building a destination hospitality and food and beverage business with Stay, Eat, Visit at the heart of the business. Our core businesses are located in the beautiful South Downs market town of Petworth, West Sussex, and the historic market town of West Malling in Kent.
Established in 2010, the group comprises a multiple-award-winning food brand, The Hungry Guest (a double winner of UK delicatessen and farm shop of the year), E Street Bar & Grill, and The Angel Inn (with seven upmarket guest rooms and two luxury holiday apartment/villas – Ryde House and East House). The group also includes Augustus Brandt, an interiors and antiques business, and Newlands House Gallery, an exciting gallery and exhibition space.
Our accolades include E Street Bar and Grill being awarded best restaurant in the South East in 2019 and The Angel Inn being awarded best pub in West Sussex in 2022. E Street Bar and Grill joined the global Chaine des Rotisseurs in 2022.
In 2019 we established a new wedding venue and events business which is growing steadily and in 2022 we launched our wine series events at E Street Bar and Grill, which has been a great success.
