Eastbourne Pier
Latest Reviews
I always like walking along piers. This was one of the cleanest. A good variety of shops/fast food outlets and noticed a night club at the end. Only one recommendation is to keep toddlers/small children close to you as the railing at the beginning of the pier do not have any protection against small children falling off. Please be careful.

We've been a few years in a row for the airshow, it's always a great day out the locals are really friendly and it's great fun seeing all the planes old and new

Eastbourne Pier does not have a lot to offer. It is very basic and certainly not worth making a special trip for. A nightclub at the end is the highlight for many a thirteen year old by the look of it.

Pier looks quite impressive after sad fire in recent years. Very wide and spacious in parts. Camera Obscura (unable to visit it, scaffolded during our visit, so check if it is a must see on your to do list before your visit). No shrieking massive rides, so a fairly peaceful area, easy for the less able, wheelchair users, etc. Some seating, but will let visitors judge the comfort factor for themselves! Pleasant and historic.

The pier is slowly rising out of the ashes and I think the present owner is making a really good job of refurbishing it. Its going to take time to restore it completely but love all the picnic tables and the Victorian Tearooms.

We stayed in Eastboure, near the pier, for 5 days but only visted the pier once due to disappointment. There are a couple of nice shops on the pier, and it's a nice walk down the pier but not much else. The arcade was small and smelled really bad. The tea room looked nice but we didn't visit it. It lacked atmosphere that you usually get on a pier.

It's a really nice place to walk about. It is really nice to look down and see the sea .It has shops and food places. Great for people who have children.

Two years on after the devastating fire that destroyed the 'blue room' area where the amusement arcade was located the pier is now fully open again but still undergoing refurbishment and is slowly but surely regaining it's former dignity. There is still a long way to go but at least this historic structure is getting some of the love that it deserves, I am sure that if this continues it will become a an essential part of the tourism itinerary of Eastbourne again. It's most definitely 'on the up!'

My 89 year old Father wanted me to take him to Eastbourne Pier to see the renovations after the fire. It was very pleasant and a great little shop to buy souvenirs and some Eastbourne Fudge!

Shut by 7pm. Far to quiet for us. Went back to the pier and nothing but two little arcades was open. Therefore left.

Nice place to chill and admire the view, picnic tables have been added to the far end and very good for Pokemon hunting,

It's one of England's most famous piers. I'm missing the arcade that burned down in 2014, but hope it will be replaced by something almost as good.

Eastbourne's iconic pier, is sadly a shadow of its former self, following a fire that destroyed the "blue room" (as it was known by us locals ) just a couple of years ago
. Now under New ownership , with only decking and benches where once stood the magnificent structure, it lacks atmosphere. Still nice to walk on , on a fine summers day

Eastbourne has the usual small shops, eateries and a bar. We had afternoon tea in the little restaurant on the pier. It was nice but nothing special.

What a great pier, maintained to a high standard, plenty of seating. Shops worth a look in especially the glass shop. Beautiful blue sea 😀

The ice cream parlour at the entrance is directly as they don't even give you a full scoop of ice cream and I was quite shocked at being given just half a scoop for the price. The small cafe stall in the wish tower car park gives much bigger ice cream portions... next to the RNLI museum. The pier itself is looking great though with lots of lovely seating and all freshly painted. It's become an absolute hive of activity for Pokemon GO players with several stops and a gym especially around the entrance.
A great job being done with all the restorations and we'll be back again soon just not for ice cream ;)

Free entry to the pier. Refurbishment is currently underway and the pier has seen better days but it is still enjoyable to walk along or sit in the sun. Care needs to be taken with young children as some of the older seating along the edge of the pier is low and open. There is a small glass works, tourist shop, small arcades as well as places to get refreshments, ice creams and chips. The local Dotto Train stops right outside the pier.

In the centre of the promenade it has restaurants, ice cream parlours games machines and all that you would expect from a pier. It is currently being painted.

No holiday is complete without a trip long the prom and a stroll on the pier.Although Eastbourne pier suffered considerable damage by fire and has been restored but sadly it lacks character.

We had a very pleasant afternoon tea. The staff were very helpful and I would go again. The pier was interesting and it helped that the weather wa very good
