Although there is not really much Along it it’s a very well maintained pier and lots of seating with lovely views of the coastline. Worth a visit on a sunny day.

Some great views from the pier and enjoyed the shops and stopped to have a light lunch. A very good spot to take photos too.

Cousins of mine and I went for a relaxing walk along the seafront in Eastbourne. The views are truly beautiful, a deep pebble beach with a lovely pier.

Whilst approaching pier realised it’s beginning to look very traditional owner making effort to maintain and brighten appearance whilst walking around had feeling of what old pier felt like very pleasing.

Any visitor to Eastbourne should visit this great attraction. It is a very typical seaside pier but with a difference. It is well maintained, very popular even with the locals and within easy reach of the train station. A definite must for all visitors to the town.

Kids went to the amusements while I had a lovely afternoon tea in the Victorian Tea House. There is also a nice little trinket shop.

This Pier was refurbished some years ago after a fire and now is in very good order. Not the longest of piers in the world but from the end gives excellent perspective and views of the shingle beach. I was able to watch many swimmers training by swimming the length of the beach and then returning. Entry is free which is a rarity these days and there are numerous benches and picnic tables dotted around. The retail outlets seem reasonable and there are the usual arcades. Disabled friendly. Certainly worth a visit.

Small pier but I found a lovely little glass blowing shop. It had some lovely plain and coloured glass figures etc. I purchased a very dainty glass vase and some glass daisies which also came with dainty great leaves

I really like Eastbourne Pier, although it feels a little bare shop wise than it use to be.
Always a lovely walk around when visiting.

This area have so much potential. When we visited there was not really anything to see. Some areas was under construction.

the Victorian Tea Rooms come under a separate heading but visit the little shops if only to discover how the shopkeepers view the outside world, but Americans tread carefully, especially if you are a Democrat. Make sure that you have a camera

I didn’t actually visited the pier as I didn’t have much spare time and it’s not really my thing but the building itself is gorgeous. Took some lovely pictures and it was really nice to admire the few times I walked past it during my stay.

Nice clean pier, nothing exciting there, other than gaming places and few eateries. Nice chippy in the front and a decent gift shop.

Free to enter. So pleased the pier was saved after the fire. Lovely walk out to sea with tea rooms and bar. Don't bother with the useless Lions arcades (reviewed separately). I recommend buying a delicious ice-cream from the Tuck Shop at the entrance to the pier.

Very nice, it had a good feel to it. We had a pot of tea in a lovely cafe, while there. It's a pity that the end bit of pier is blocked off.
We still enjoyed it, and it's free

Great Jaz playing at the end of the pier and a great bar. Reasonable priced drinks and friendly staff.

Nice Victorian feel to the pier, however very sad to see cigarette end after cigarette end being discarded ( obviously ending up in the ocean ). This was indicative of Eastbourne as a whole.
I did notice a lot of Eastern European languages, perhaps this is the norm in their ( higher smoking percentages ) culture. Maybe if you wish to promote a more Victorian feel, then perhaps some educational signage on this issue - as well as some enforcement.
As to the Pier, is it really necessary to ban all food items not purchased on the pier.
What about the good old family picnic? Family’s will still spend money on gaming and souvenirs etc. Such a beautiful structure just seems so under utilized.

The pier is fabulously maintained; there are clearly staff members who put their life and soul into making this location look pretty. The bar/restaurant in middle of pier was good. You can see for miles around, it was lovely. Perfect to sit and reflect.

Enjoyed a wander along and found a bench in the shade, a delightful spot to go people watching for nearly an hour. Many people were buying sun hats at the shop down there, including us. They have made a perfect restoration of it after the fire and it still includes various attractions. The Victorian Tea Room was particularly busy.

From the pretty flower beds that front the entrance to the pier to its very end, this is an experience that not only is free (donations can be made in secure cash boxes), but has something for all the family. There are amusements, shops, seating, a bar/restaurant, tea rooms, as well as a jazz club and a traditional chippy! A great place to pass a couple of hours watching the world go by.

Very pleasant pier, although I noticed you can’t take dogs (except assistance dogs) or your own food and drink. There didn’t seem to be any public loos, but if you buy a drink in the tea room or jazz cafe/bar you can use theirs. Otherwise it’s 20p to pee in the loos either side of the pier by the beach!
The arcade(s) are tiny in comparison to Brighton pier.
There is loads of seating (wooden picnic tables and benches round the edge). On a very sunny Bank Holiday Monday it wasn’t crowded at all.
Lovely.

A very well maintained pier, part of which was engulfed in a fire in recent years. Extremely popular, lots of entertainment, such as shops and arcades. Victorian tea rooms are worth a visit, as in the restaurant at the pier end. If you sit down to eat outside, what out for the gulls.
