My wife and I along with several friends visited this venue in the evening to attend a live music evening. My Best Man was performing, having travelled down from Mull in The Hebrides. Good size venue, plenty of seating. Well served beers and welcoming atmosphere.

I felt the place didn't look much from the outside, but being hungry I gave it a go. So glad I did! I was served a massive plate of really tasty food and am sad to say I was unable to finish it. The Malbec was also if excellent quality. Well worth a visit.

Second visit in two weeks for a meal. Our first visit two weeks there were six of us and we all enjoyed a very good meal. Lamb shanks, steak and pan fried pork. Four of us went back last night and again we had lamb shank, sirloin steak and two pan fried porks and once again all the meals were excellent with a good selection of veg etc. Their crispy onion pieces are lovely. The pub was busy and there was a good buz to the place. Plenty of staff working behind the bar all very helpful and friendly. A very good evening which included a live group playing in the side bar. Well done all of you at the Crown and Anchor from six local residents who have all lived in Eastbourne for over 60 years and we are sorry it has taken us so long to find this excellent pub. We'll be back!

So far the best pub I have visited in Eastbourne, the staff are very friendly and efficient, the food is good and the pub has a very welcoming atmosphere. It is lovely they allow dogs and light the fires, it feels very homely. Great for warming up after a chilly stroll along the beachfront.

I was in Eastbourne on business and had a few hours free, I happened upon this pub and decided to give it ago. Staff were very friendly. I ordered the Quiche which was lovely. The food is very good value for money. Atmosphere was nice and chilled too.

Very friendly atmosphere, welcoming. A lot of effort must have gone into the refurb from when i visited a long time ago, it was well worth it.

Lovely pub serving great traditional British food. I ate here several times whilst visiting the UK and still remember the memorable dish of slow cooked lamb shanks. Truly wonderful pub food.

Changed into a first class pub and restaurant. Hamburgers are memorable and not expensive. Beers are well kept and the place has been nicely refurbished. Clean with excellent service.

We called in last night with our two dogs. They sat under that table while we had a very lovely dinner - form the specials board. The menu is very good. The quality is high and potions are generous. We will certainly be returning. The pub is independent , very well presented, right on the prom...and it welcomes dogs - which is useful as it is just around the corner form the Shore View Hotel which allow allows dogs to stay. So this is a great weekend solution for dog owners visiting Eastbourne.

Six of the eight of us had never been in this pub before, but we were greeted like old friends, and the evening just took off from there. Our first introduction was to a lady of a certain age, distributing fliers for a Chubby Checker show. The more she tried to encourage us to remember him, the more our memories failed. Defeated, we thought, she left the pub, but was back half an hour later, still trying to ignite interest. If only she had known that a REALLY famous pop star was sitting at the back of the pub, quietly having a couple of drinks with his mates......For us the beer and wine were good, the food was excellent pub grub, and the staff were just what you want in a pub - anticipated what you were drinking, interested in what you were saying, funny to to talk to, but all the while running a great establishment. If ever you're in Eastbourne, visit the Crown and Anchor.

My wife and I braved the elements last Sunday and fell into The Crown & Anchor having remembered it being recommended. Suddenly it felt like the sun was shining and the wind had subsided, as great food was served with a smile and washed down with great beer. The best pub meal in Eastbourne in my humble opinion and we'll certainly be back…come rain or shine!

Escaped the elements into this pub which we loved last time we visited. Found a table. Was instantly greeted and drink order taken at the table. Drinks arrived and food ordered. Not one note pad in sight. Food was delicious and massive portions. This is a all round good pub and just wish we lived closer to visit more often

Lovely pub, with super friendly staff.. Was very disappointed with the food though, bland and tasteless, garnish was gruesome dried shrivelled cucumber, salad leaves where old and having the burger which came on a bun 3 times it size, overcooked burger and bacon, plastic cheese and soft greasy chips. My partner had a lasagne which was over microwaved and barely ate it. would have been 5* otherwise.

Great pub, clean, polite bar staff and superb food. Just looking at some of the old reviews. I feel I need to add that the pub changed landladys about 5 months ago, being a local I know what the pub used to be like, it is now the complete opposite.

Lovely popular pub, quite busy with a large private function room upstairs with its own bar.

Four of us went to this pub for lunch on Monday. What a delight! The food was excellent served hot but not microwave burning. We had lamb shanks with tasty, properly cooked vegetables which we all would recommend. The service was prompt and friendly. If you are in Eastbourne, you just have to try this pub, it's a cut above!

We had a change of plans and last minute found this pub, which allowed our dog inside and we enjoyed good food and were impressed with the helpful friendly staff too. When next in the area, we would eat there again. Luckily we could used a table that was booked for later, but I would recommend booking in advance.

We didn't want to walk far in the wind and the rain so thought we'd try the Crown & Anchor. Food was typical Greene King pub food - tasty enough, reasonable portions, quick and pleasant service ...... and obviously a very popular pub.
Being so popular, as a pub, it was very noisy as there was no separate dining and drinking areas.Probably will go back again .... if it's wet and windy !
