The outside doesn’t look great but don’t be fooled - pop in for a very welcoming service - Service impeccable, good food served with a smile and the staff were really attentive
Good for kids and dogsHusband was paying the bill and it was wrong so he told them - it was in their favour - but cos he was honest they reduced out bar bill!
Really worth a visit

Visited on a Saturday night with a live band playing an eclectic mix across the ages. Great for people watching and a very down to earth atmosphere.

We didn't eat here but the menu looked good. Beers and great selection of gins on offer. Poor table and a few TV scattered around. Overall nice local pub.

What an absolute treasure of a find. Excellent food. Fantastic customer service. Good beers. Great karaoke night on a Sunday. A full vegan menu too! Great prices. We had such a fun evening and the entire pub became an entertainment venue. Cannot rate this high enough.

I hired the upstairs function room for my 30th birthday party and I literally couldn’t fault it. The food was amazing, the staff were really friendly and helpful with setting up and packing away and it was really reasonably priced, just £100 to hire the room from 7.30-12. We were allowed in from 5.30 to set up. Couldn’t recommend this as a party venue highly enough, it was brilliant.

Popped in on the way to our hotel on Friday 29/3/19 to a real warm welcome.
Went back in the evening after a walk baout and ended up having Fish & Chip's , and all I can say is EXCELLENT and for the portion size it was good value to boot ( no curry sauce though, sort it out guys LOL:) )
We will definitely be back.
Cheers

The pub is a short walk from the pier.

The food is excellent and a lot cheaper than expected.

Staff really friendly. Olly, Roz and Sam. Lovely people.

Even laughed at my jokes.

Give it a go.

A very family and dog friendly pub with a varied menu. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed relaxing with vino and the vegetarian sharing platter. Attentive staff who went out of their way to be helpful. Definitely worth a visit.

Had an evening meal here while staying for a couple of nights in a nearby hotel. The food was very good and the service was fast and friendly. Lovely location close to the seafront.

I enjoy visiting this place. The food is gorgeous if a little overpriced for the area. Sometimes they have great bands on at the weekend

Popped in to see if the pub was dog friendly, it was so we had a drink and looked at the menu, that looked good so we returned later for food. Excellent food freshly prepared.
Staff were excellent even bringing your drinks to the table. Has a sports bar so watched Wales win their first six nations game. Live music at weekends and you can reserve tables. Excellent, a really good find and dog friendly to boot!

Weekend away with Husband. Walking round Eastbourne to find somewhere to have a drink as staying at a local hotel. Came across this pub, looks welcoming from the outside. What a great find. Great ambience. Mixture of couples and singles, mix of men and women. Few TVs showing sport, but they’re not huge and overbearing. Staff welcoming. Fire burning. By far the best bit for me is the extensive vegan menu. As we are staying in a local hotel that includes dinner we haven’t eaten, but it can be incredibly hard to find some where that caters for dietary needs. This menu is one of the best I’ve seen. Plenty of options, starters, mains and deserts. Not one sorbet on the menu !! If you’re vegan you’ll understand what I mean !! Keep doing what you’re doing. Great pub.
