The pier was nice and clean, not a lot to do on there but nice views. A few places to eat and some arcades

this is a really nice pier it has been rebuilt to a very good standard and with the cafes and shops and amusements it is worth a visit here you can sit and while away the time or have a drink and something to eat

I have always loved Eastbourne pier. That said the lighting needs sorting out. Looks very dark and bare at night.

Born from the ashes of the fire, this has now been totally rebuilt with several excellent features.
It is free to wander around (and you should) and open from dawn to dusk. There are wide open spaces and spots for the children to play.
There are tea rooms, a licensed venue which also offers a wedding location and views around the town.
You can still see some of the old pier in places but with the new construction this should last for some time.

We love piers most for their view of the town they offer and Eastbourne Pier did not disappoint us. The restaurant did look lovely also but alas, we did not have time to stop there.

Overall this is a brilliant place to visit.

There are a couple of shops on the pier (glass and sweets) and a fish and chip shop (which is lovely!)

The Victorian tea room is well worth a visit! The sandwiches are lovely and the cakes delicious!

We are definitely planning to visit again and are in the process of booking a hotel for next year!

Free, clean and it allows the view to speak for itself.
The pier extends over gorgeous turquoise sea and the water visibility I about 2.5m, incredibly for UK.
BRINGING MY FISHING ROD NEXT TIME.

I enjoyed time we spent on this lovely old pier and you could get a sense of the history and the tea rooms took you back to a time when service and manners were part of everyday life. Glad the pier got rebuilt after the fire, when we came down the Morris Dancers were entertaining the crowds

went to the pier with my sister as we were visiting the annual "steampunk festival " short walk away at wish tower/bandstand area along seafront. we have a pier in southsea but alas is closed for repair, however this pier is a joy, its how a pier should be, properly maintained in all its glory, complete with a lovely victorian tea house, cute little shops + arcades, the views were stunning, a designated smoking area, lots of oudoor seating, along with its own night club + very friendly locals whom we engaged with due to our unusual "steampunk" attire, lots + lots of photos taken by appreciative public, we ourselves became attractions, which was nice + what a great pier for this to occur.
we will most definately be waling the planks on this beautiful pier,
unfortunately puts are home grown to shame! enjoy a wonderful walk + take in the delights.

After he rebuild from fire damage the pier is still a lovely place to go and see in Eastbourne. It has a nice room with some quaint shops. Just need more for the kids.

This is a great pier and improved since the fire as it has a large open seating area. There are a few small shops and arcades etc, but not tacky. The fish &chips at the start are one of the only places I eat them from. So pleased to see it back as I feared it would go the way of most damaged piers.

Once this pier is completely finished it will be better I am sure - love the Tearooms but did not like the fact there are signs telling people you cannot eat your own food on the pier - limiting for families and discouraging.

Worth a visit.The surprise waiting at the end of the Pier is a night club - takes first time visitors by surprise. Great place to sunbathe.

We visited Eastbourne Pier and decided to stop at the Victorian Tea Rooms. On arrival it was very busy, most tables were already allocated and there were 3/4 tables which were free.... BUT they all seemed to have dirty dishes piled on them! When I asked for a table for 3, the server just said go and sit on any of those tables and I will clear it. I mean, not pleasant sitting at a table for over 5 minutes with someone else's used dishes stacked on it! Im not sure if they were understaffed, but there was only 2 ladies going around taking orders, slowly cleaning tables etc.

Anyway, when she did eventually come, the server cleaned the table, sprayed the glass clean and took out order. She then came back shortly after with our order and was nice. (Cream tea's, coffee and Victoria sponge) - Although both scones came with odd amounts of clotted cream and jam (one came with an over sized amount of clotted cream and with the tiniest amount of jam). The Victoria sponge was lovely.

I'd perhaps like to revisit at some point to see whether our 1st visit was an 'off day', and perhaps at a not so busy time... Because prior to my visit, quite a few people had recommended this place to me.

We were pleasantly surprised to see how nice the pier looked and enjoyed a day there with our grandson. He had a great time on the 2p machines and we had a lovely cup of coffee in the Victorian Café with its chandeliers and lights. I was a little bit disappointed that the staff all looked rather miserable. Please cheer up and make the tearoom a happy place. It's so nice to see somebody wanting to make it somewhere to enjoy for the people of Eastbourne. Thank you to the Sheik.

It's one of the symbol in Eastbourne. It was on fire recently but it was nicely recovered. The view from the Pier is really beautiful especially when it is a lovely weather!! There is a tea room and some souvenir shops on the Pier.

Good to see this pier re-built after a disastrous fire. And in our opinion restored to a very high standard, with more facilities than before. We even liked the gold domes and lions! Nothing like a pier for a traditional English sea-side stroll!

I've read a few negative things about the restoration of the pier via the Sheik since the fire - not nice.
I say ' Thank You ' for restoring the pier, keeping it free, giving the pier some bling !
If you don't like it, don't go
I love strolling along, watching the seagulls , having tea and cake and watching the world go by.
It's not the same as before granted.
But someone has come along and made an effort, didn't see anyone else putting their hand in their pocket or bothering.
Thank you x 💐
