Eastbourne Pier
Latest Reviews
Eastbourne appears from our visit to be a pleasant place which has sand on the beach when the tide is low. It is therefore better than Brighton for young children. It appears to attract more older holidaymakers and young children than Brighton. Car parking is easier and less expensive than in Brighton.
It has a pier which is free to go on.
The best sea bathing is west of the pier as that is the area which is monitored for bathing water quality.
The main downside is that the Council charges people 20pence to use the public toilets near the pier.

An enjoyable typical seaside town pier, amusements, benches, candy floss, bars, burgers etc. unfortunately badly let down by the completely tasteless chips cooked from frozen at the chip shop on the entrance, and the once frozen prawns from the 'seafood' stall on the west side

well it is wheelchair accessiable except for the night club at the end of the pier we didnt see any access their it was all up steps, on the pier you can see the traditional amusement slot machines then theres sweet shops, gift shops, glass making shop, a victorian cafe we had a victorian tea which came on a tea stand which sandwiches, scones, cake, you can take home if you carnt finish it very filling, and of course a good cuppa. Then theres a lovely breeze especially at night if you like to look out to sea..

This was a typical seaside resort pier with the usual array of slots machines, donut seller and fast food takeaways. It was however a nice view at night looking back over Eastbourne

a really beautiful nice old pier, victorian style, great for pictures and really old beauty. On the pier itself a bit of renovation could be nice, but really worth a visit.

No cohesive opening times of the various attractions.
The camera Obscura tower never seemed to be open.

The pier is a little out dated. Looks lovely at night. Typical pier with games rooms and souvenier shops lining the way.

Even the young (at heart) like it. Ample food, drinks souvenirs and panorama to absorb. During Eastbourne, Airbourne a great place to sight the planes on any day. Also the fireworks are grand in fantasy...also for Disney lovers :)

Victorian era pier still retains it's charm with kitchy shops and food vendors. Try try icecream shop toward the end of the pier, the best!!! As always when on a pier, sea gulls abound and the woman next to us got a "dollop" on her head, so shew them away!

Lovely Pier-testament to the engineering skills of our forefathers. It juts out over beautiful clean sea. It has a few shops along the way selling the usual souvenirs-postcards/ornaments/sweets etc.At the far end there were people fishing. There is also a nightclub and an amusement parlour. Plenty to keep you busy for a hour or so.

Just an average pier with caffes and entertainment. beautiful view on the cliffs and hotels though. We loved the views and little seafood snacks bought in one of the little food shops on the pier.

loved the victorian tea room / restaurant and the view from the pier. We had fish and chips - what could be better?

Not being a fan of piers i didnt think id enjoy my visit here, but i was pleasently surprised. I liked looking in the glass blowing shop, seeing the people making things was really interesting. There are a lot of slot machines and things, and a few odd shops selling postcards and magnets and the usual tourist things. The pub lacks character, but fortunatly there is a lot of outside seating where you can look out over the town and sea as you drink. Worth a visit, but wont take up too much of your day.

A lovely old fashioned pier giving excellent views of Eastbourne seafront. There is a very good Victorian Tearoom on the pier where one can sit and look the view while enjoying a good cup of coffee

Every seaside town has one but i feel this one could do with some inprovements more so the quality of outlets on the pier itself.

Its a pier and i hope it carries on as it would be a shame to see it fold. A bit of an investment and new shops etc would do it good.

We came here on may bank holiday so was really busy, we visited the arcades alot of games to choose from, visited the sweet shop that was over-priced, nice views, and had a lovely fish and chip shop on pier food was nice and were very large portions and too top it of there was a french market outside the pier with loads of nice items to buy.

The reviews on here pretty much sum up this Victorian Pier- faded grandeur at its best.
A mixture of quirky shops, food places & amusements needing a lick of paint.
Well worth a stroll to the end & back

The pier is a fantastic old traditional pier with a collection of shops, Victorian Tea Room amusement arcade and a family pub at the end. Take in the sea air and browse the individual shops like the glass blower and gift shops as you go.
