I was in Eastbourne Wedenesday and Thursday on a min-break! I found this excellent pub not far from my Hotel. Would - be visitors: imagine you are facing the pier ,walk a few hundred metres to you left and there it is !! I had lamb shank as my main meal and it was delicious! The preceding comments are all so accurate that I cannot add on to them!Will now choose hotels in this part of the resort on the grounds that I will have an excellent ale-house within walking distance.

Excellent food, but be warned, the portions are large. We had a selection of starters and main courses and every one of them was superb. Very reasonable price for the quality and quantity.
The staff are even more tasty than the food ;-)

Visited last evening prior to theatre. Welcoming feel and staff. Food very good and a fair price. Only downside one of the party had liver and while the flavour was good the portion of liver was small. Will not put us off going back. Overall good experience.

Called in for an afternoon drink whilst on an overnight stay yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. Ended up going back in there in the evening after a poor hotel dinner and ended up having pudding/cheese at the bar followed by a few drinks whilst listening to a great young band. Most of the bar staff very good and attentive and a lovely environment and atmosphere. There were also lots of people eating and the food looked pretty good .

Popped in to have a pint after a long week and a one night stay in town. Saw the ribs plate float past and my partner was sold.
Food was good price and big portions. Only complaint was there wasn't much option for a veggie and the options they did have were all very heavy and big plates.Hopefully there are some lighter options in the works??
Service staff was fantastic and nice atmosphere all around.

We have enjoyed the food and great atmosphere at the Crown & Anchor for some time now. The new refurbishment looks amazing and gives a more upmarket feel to this warm & friendly establishment. We booked the restaurant upstairs for a special Valentines evening and were very impressed with the redesign of this function area. The restaurant was extremely busy but the table layout was considerate and not at all cramped. There was a decent amount of options on the new menu & plenty of specials on the board as is usual. I can highly recommend the starter sharing platter and we both enjoyed the delicious ribeye steaks. The wait for food was a little longer than the usual wait time but the very friendly & attentive staff kept us informed and kept our wine glasses topped up. All in all another wonderful night. I think this new look Crown & Anchor will appeal to an even wider clientele. Thankyou for a delightful evening..... Will be back soon

I visited the newly refurbished Crown and Anchor on Valentine's evening with my wife and we were both delighted with the evening. Although I have visited the pub a couple of times to drink this was the 1st time I had eaten. I had a delicious homemade burger, and my wife had the Lamb Shank. She said "it was the best lamb shank she had ever had" we asked how it was cooked and were informed it was slow roasted in real ale for 5 hours, Mmmm nice! They were obviously much busier than expected, but kept us well informed and very well plied with drinks all evening so it actually made a nice change to sit down in a warm, friendly atmosphere and have a great conversation with my wife over a bottle of bubbly!! We then finished off the evening by going downstairs into the bar and watched a really good live band. Then even after I had been steeped in real ale for 5 hours, I managed to show the wife a brilliant dad dance!! (wife didn't think so, strangely??) Excellent evening & highly recommended*****

We had our annual works do at the crown and anchor a couple of evenings ago. It's the first time we have chosen this venue as we usually go to Brighton. There were 15 of us who all enjoyed a great meal and were very well looked after by the staff who couldn't do enough for us. There is a really nice sports bar area with darts and pool and our night was topped off when an awesome 3 piece band set up....brilliant !!
Great beer, friendly atmosphere, highly recommended *****

Had meal here 7th Feb 2015 before going to The Hippodrome Theatre to see the Three Degrees. I ordered the lasagne and it was enormous.It came with 4 pieces of garlic bread,salad and in a dish big enough for 2 people.My Husband had the scampi with chips and our male friend had the steak and they were well pleased.My friends wife had jacket potato and that came with salad and that was very good to.The pub is very busy with several tv screens and a separate bar with a pool table. The service was very quick considering how busy it was because of the Rugby and football that was on..Would definitely eat here again.

Have been to this pub a few times. Last went here 8th Feb for a meal. The food was really nice. Recommend the garlic mushrooms for starter. Good place to watch sport as well.

We visited on Saturday 7th Feb and had the most amazing night out for a long time! We were down for the weekend and were so lucky that the pub had reopened after its refurb. The pub is so friendly - not cliquely at all. We were made to feel so welcome. We had the most delicious meal - roast belly of pork with roast potatoes and vegetables. Everything tasted amazing. The vegetables were glorious and roast potatoes were superb. My partner had the lamb shank which again was delicious. The portions are very generous! Really fresh and tasty food. We stayed for the band 'the gangsters' and danced the night away to ska beats! Thank you!

Went back to Crown & Anchor today after they had been closed for a few weeks, for a refurb.
I was hoping that it wasn't going to change too drastically and thankfully it hasn't.The same cosy feeling is still there,as is the excellent food and the open fire.
The crispy pork belly with roast potatoes and veg is my all time favourite, but none of the mains have disappointed.A good range of beers too.
Highly recommend 😁

Eaten here many times as its close by, shows football, reasonably priced and most of the food is really nice.
However, some of the staff are rude, often get your order wrong or wait 30mins to tell you that what you ordered has run out!? Best meal is sausage and mash and worst is roast beef on a Sunday as it's always dry.

Visiting Eastbourne for the first time, we booked Christmas Day lunch at The Crown and Anchor. Apart from the meal, which was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere in the pub was great and all the staff were friendly, good-humoured, efficient, in fact, everything one would want of a good pub and good place to eat.

Come here on a regular basis. Atomsphere is brilliant, and the food is just as good. Good bar for watching the sport. The pool tables, and dart board are well maintained. Can be loud/busy on a Wednesday as it's student night but doesn't hinder the service you get. Great all round pub!

This seafront pub has a lovely cosy and warm atmosphere. A real fire crackled away near to our lunch table. There was a comprehensive and varied menu, excellent choice of ales and wines, live sports channels and beautifully decorated for Christmas.
As this Pub was close to my Hotel I frequented on several occasions. Highly recommended

We had a very rasonably priced meal her which was plentiful and of good quality and served by friendly staff. The only drawback was that we were too late (8pm) to get a table in the restaurant area and had to sit in the pool table area which was not conducive to eating.
There was a small range of real ales which were very tasty.We visited in late December just before the pub was due to close for a refurbishment.

We went to this pub for dinner while we stayed overnight in a hotel around the corner. The atmosphere was great as were the staff who were very friendly and efficient. We had fantastic typical pub meals which arrived very quickly. They were very substantial serves at a good price. After eating in a number of pubs and restaurants over the past two weeks of our holiday, the Crown and Anchor rated the best.
