After visiting my dad in the hospital and not getting some great news, me and my husband decided we needed a drink and drove to the rodmill for a quick pint to discuss the options. The staff were lovely and friendly atmosphere. But then getting a fine through the door which has made our 30min detour to the pub for 1 pint very very expensive. This is not the first time I have been to the rodmill and last time I went there was a pad to put your car reg in and very clear information regarding charges. This time u couldn't see anything outside, but it was dark and nothing in the pub and the lady who served us mentioned nothing. I'm extremely upset and disappointed and will not be returning as 2 pints has cost us £70 !!

Family Christmas meal, atmosphere was really nice, mostly generated by my groups booking of 24, the food however left A LOT to be desired. Vegetables were clearly microwaved and frozen, meat was dry, my 'medium rare' steak was closer to cremated..

We love meeting up here from Lancing with family from Eastbourne & Hastings. The food is great & there's always good value options (BOGOFF on burgers every Thursday). We were served by a particularly personable barmaid who immediately put us at ease with friendly banter & familiar way. Advise you plan to arrive a little early as it's a popular venue with somewhat limited parking (but I noticed 2 EV charging spots in their car park). Overall the atmosphere is very friendly and relaxed.

I had a fantastic time at the pub. The staff really made the experience special—they were so friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. They kept the drinks flowing and made sure we were comfortable all night. What stood out most was how attentive they were, always checking in without being intrusive. We even had a few laughs with them, and they made great recommendations for drinks. It’s rare to find such great service, and it definitely made our night unforgettable. I’ll definitely be back, thanks to the amazing staff!

I was having a viewing at a nearby location and decided to drop in here for a pint. It had been close to 20 years since I had last visited The Rodmill and obviously much had changed. Obviously my visit was dictated by my appointment time, so I can imagine that evenings would be much busier? Very friendly and welcoming staff and although this visit was outside the 'rush hours', it was easy to spot a few off duty NHS staff sitting enjoying their coffees. Very close to Eastbourne General Hospital so understandably it's a popular venue after work. Unfortunately for me the viewing was a pointless exercise so my plan to have The Rodmill as my local was thrown out with the bath water. Recommended.

The building is very tired and in desperate need of renovation. The toilets were pretty disgusting. The Sunday roast was disappointing- small, dry meat and very overcooked veg. The only redeeming part was plenty of gravy. The burgers that some of our party had looked good. We tried to order beer as they had a £2 a pint promo but then informed us it was only on Fosters, I mean, who drinks Fosters? We're adults! Won't rush back.
