Since the pier has been taken over by the sheikh it seems to have been modernised a lot better than by the previous owners!
Saying that, we went to the waterfront bar and the 2 bar men were absolutely useless... Seemed unable to operate the card machine... Left me waiting for 5/10 mins at the bar whilst they sorted this out.
Worth a visit, free entry, but expensive drinks.

I had a great time on the pier. Traditional fish and chips is a must. Sitting outside and hearing the waves crashing under the pier is beautiful. Beware of giant seagulls. They are huge. Do not feed them.

A nice little pier but rather unexciting. There is a lovely tea room and just before it on the left a reasonably priced gift shop. Don't go before 11 as many shops do not open until then, (this does not include the one already identified)!

Really nice pier, saw the nightclub there and it must be the best looking night club i've seen. Very scenic for a walk as well.<br><br>Check out Brighton's Pier as it is much much better and bigger.

The Pier is nice to look at but when on it there is little bar the view to keep you on it. It may suffer from being not far from Brighton pier which is far superior

Although it seems still to be in the midst of a refurb (scaffolding about the pier) what is completed is looking fresh and welcoming and one can almost feel the ladies taking a turn on the Pier...for the sea air. It makes a great stroll after a large plate of fish and chips or even ice-cream so worth it for that fact alone, but the views of the sea and coast line are spectacular from this vantage point and a couple of panoramic shots of Eastbourne taken from the pier, will be displayed for friends and family to admire.

This is a fun place to visit and we even say in the sun and had a beer from the bar right at the end of the pier. It was very uncrowded and not tacky like lots of piers are around the world.
It was very interesting to see the next morning at low tide where we walked right underneath it.

They serve ice creams of course and it gives you great views back across the town from the end of the pier.
A must do!

I wish I could have gone on some of the rides. But I still enjoyed a dabble and a lovely frozen yoghurt on the pier.

The recovery work from last years fire can readily be seen, with new easily accessible seating, so too the work needed to replace/repair some of the old Victorian fixtures. The cast iron has been tastefully painted, the Obscura is being rectified and hopefully operational for the main summer season.
All in all, a pleasurable stroll leeward or windward,with partial shelter, depending on the strength of the breeze, some beautiful views along the coast in each direction and the splendor of the Victorian and Edwardian architecture of the hotels of Eastbourne.

We visited Eastbourne pier on May 3rd, 2016. It was simple plaiin with 2 amusement arcades, 2 bars and the some of the usual fairground attractions with a well stocked shop. Not much there but only worth a visit as long as it is free. If it was only available for a fee it would be best avoided. It took only 10 mins to walk to the end and back. The bars and "resteraunt" ( a chip shop) were OK, nothing special. For a child it would be OK for an hour or maybe for an hour and a half.

The pier has been tastefully restored after the fire. Plenty of picnic tables and seats. It is free to enter.

The new owner has done a good cleanup job after the fire. Picnic tables are a nice touch. Very clean and tidy. We look forward to seeing the additions/improvements which we are sure are in the pipeline. So far so very good; he clearly has the right idea and we wish him success.

Visited Eastbourne pier on the 1st May with the family, to be honest I don't know what it was like before the fire, however we found the pier OK, there was a couple of take aways and a coffee shop, with a small gift shop, and a night club, it was very clean and appeared to be freshly painted, quite nice for a sit in the sun on a sunny day.

Si has visitado Brighton te dirá poca cosa. Apenas algún restaurante y tienda. Sin arcade, atracciones o algo que te permita pasar el rato en un día soleado.

Looks beautiful, prettier and more stylish than the rival pier in Brighton. I visited the pier after 6pm so it was closed. The sights are good and there are a lot of benches to sit down and enjoy the views. The bus to Brighton leaves practically in front of the pier when the pier is open.

Watch out for the seagulls they dive bomb you for any food you may be trying to eat.
Fair number of rides but as always expensive

Went for a walk there- not a lot there, end of the pier was closed off for repair work (possibly linked to the massive fire on there last year?)

Having recently visited Eastbourne I was pleasantly surprised to find the Pier recently refurbished, however slightly disappointed that very few things were available for Children, although there was a small gift shop and restaurant/tea room, this seemed to be mainly geared towards adult clientele, and when I asked around it was mentioned that the owners were more concerned with the money being spent on the casino, its a shame as I feel a nice ice cream parlour or small games arcade would be very popular, but will return later this year to see if improvements have been made

Visited here several times over our weekend stay in Eastbourne. The pier was so well kept and user friendly. The paint work is new and the older decking planks are always being replaced.
