We had been looking forward to eating in the Crown & Anchor on the Friday of the spring bank holiday weekend 2021, about 2 weeks after the pubs were allowed to reopen for indoor catering.
We had previously visited in December 2020 and enjoyed a great meal with attentive staff.On our repeat visit, the place was freezing with one door permanently open and the other door opening and closing every couple of minutes.
We waited and no one came to bring us a menu or take our order, although we had reserved a table.Eventually, I had to go to the bar and ask for the menus.
The menus were brought to our table but nobody took a drinks order and we had to wait until they eventually came back to take our food order and only then could place our drinks order.The food itself was nice, but we weren't given any serviettes or cutlery and I had to go to the bar again to ask for them.
After our meal was served, staff visited our table a couple of times to ensure that all was ok.The manager was very nice and helpful and was the same guy who we met in December, but the serving staff seemed very inexperienced and we were under the impression that we were witnessing organised chaos.
A relaxing meal it was not and we left after the main course and after only one drink as a drafty platform at a train station would've had equal ambience and warmth to the Crown & Anchor on that night.

The meals were absolutely fabulous home cooking. The staff were friendly and helpful and the service was quick and with a smile.

There is no substitute for good old fashioned customer service and friendly staff. I visit here occasionally and it is consistently good.

We visited late this afternoon and had a lovely table in the sun. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food amazing. The proprietor even gave my husband a celebratory glass he covered. Will definitely be returning.

This is the second Sunday we went to the outside eating area it was very windy the staff were amazing they found us a sheltered table when one became available the food was simply delicious all home made and cooked to perfection we had eaten there before several times but in normal times living in the next town we can catch the bus there so double bonus I have had bariatric surgery so my food intake is minimal they happily give you a doggy bag to bring home my vegetables were cooked and I was able to eat and digest them which is just brilliant I will recommend on our site for others thank you all see you in two weeks

Today I went to the Crown & Anchor with my family including two toddlers. The staff have been amazing and the food delicious. Definitely the pub to go if you're down to Easbourne. Friendly and caring staff with tasty food (as well as drinks). ;-)

Yummy food. I created a new meal of nachos with a side of chilli and I don't regret it! Staff very friendly but it took too long to order drinks/get served. I understand it was a Saturday night but one staff member asked every table around us and never came to us. Very strange.

This popped up on our Just eat for the first time tonight, so we ordered the vegan sausage and mash and vegan cheesecake.... So good! The mash, sausages and veg all came packed separately and very hot. It was so tasty and perfectly cooked. It came earlier than expected too. We will definately be ordering again and trying out the other vegan options 👍
