Matt said: “As a child I spent many holidays in Ireland visiting family and friends and always wanted to bring a slice of the emerald isle to Worthing, and The Warwick gave us the space and versatility to create O’Connor’s.
“Well-known local landlady Angie Deeprose will now operate the pub on a day-to-day basis.
“We wanted to create a premium Irish pub with traditional Irish food and pub classics.

Business development manager for Greene King Pub Partners Andre Quibell said: “This scheme was a brave one and we wanted to do it with an experienced pub operator which we have in Matt and his team.
“With them we’ve been able to create a unique and high-quality high-street pub that will be great for Worthing town”
The changes include all-new furniture both inside and out, a complete redecoration and traditional fixtures and fittings alongside and a new bar with new beer-dispensing equipment.
