A New Chapter for Babylon ✨
At the heart of every great local venue is a place where people can come together, unwind and make memories. For Babylon, at 6 New Street, Worthing, that has always been at the centre of everything we do.
Throughout the beginning of the year, we undertook a full refurbishment of Babylon, investing considerable time, effort and passion into creating a stylish yet welcoming space. Our vision was to bring together a sophisticated bar, relaxed café and restaurant, creating a versatile venue for everything from coffee and brunch to cocktails, music and entertainment
Having opened our doors this summer, we set out to create a welcoming, sophisticated space where people could escape the everyday, enjoy great food and drinks, spend quality time with friends and family. Whether customers are looking for a relaxing coffee, a delicious bite to eat, an evening drink or a lively night to dance the night away, Babylon aims to offer something for everyone.
Our venue combines the atmosphere of a stylish bar and restaurant with the relaxed charm of a café. Guests can enjoy an extensive selection of drinks, draft b**rs, freshly brewed coffee and a tempting range of baked goods. With plenty of comfortable seating areas, Babylon is the perfect place to sit back, unwind, catch up with friends or simply relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
Although our doors opened during the summer, our official launch plans were postponed following an immense, unexpected and tragic loss within our family.
This was an incredibly difficult time for us all, both personally and as a business, and meant that our original plans had to be put on hold as we navigated such a devastating period in our lives.
With years of experience in the hospitality industry, we began our journey with a vision of creating a bar and café that offered something a little different. We were delighted by the support we received, particularly for our private events and functions, which helped us establish Babylon as a place where people could celebrate special occasions and create lasting memories.
As winter approaches and the hospitality industry continues to face its own challenges, we have decided to embrace a new chapter, bringing fresh energy and exciting additions to our offering.
We are delighted to announce our partnership with Antonio’s Pizza, bringing the expertise of a well-known pizza chef and a delicious new food offering to Babylon.
Our kitchen will officially launch on Friday 30th October, and we cannot wait to welcome customers old and new to experience this exciting addition.
We believe the partnership will complement us perfectly, giving people even more reasons to visit, whether for a casual meal, a catch-up with friends or a full evening out.
And there is plenty more to look forward to.
We will shortly be launching our new brunch menus, expanding our daytime offering and making Babylon an ideal destination for everything from morning coffee and freshly baked treats to a leisurely brunch with friends.
Entertainment is also a big part of what we do. We regularly host themed evenings, DJ nights and karaoke nights, giving guests the opportunity to sing along, hit the dance floor and enjoy a fun, sociable atmosphere.
Towards the end of the year, we will also be introducing live events, with more exciting announcements to come.
As a family-run business, community support means a great deal to us. We want Babylon to be more than just a place to enjoy a drink or a meal; we want it to be somewhere people feel comfortable, welcome and part of something special, whatever the occasion or time of day.
Despite the heartbreaking circumstances we have faced as a family, we remain passionate about our business and determined to move forward, building something we can be proud of. Our partnership with Antonio’s Pizza, alongside our expanding café, brunch and entertainment offerings, marks an exciting step in that journey.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us so far and look forward to welcoming more of the Worthing community through our doors as we continue to grow.
Losing the heart and founder of our family has changed our world forever, reminding us how precious life is - and far too short. So let’s make the most of every moment, come together, make memories and enjoy it to the fullest.
