The best restaurants serving British food in Eastbourne South East

A fantastic night! Fabulous food and fun, organised by Gemma, Francis and the team. The quiz was genius with fantastic categories that were great fun, culminating in a paper aeroplane making competition! The food was delicious - wonderful home-made dips with crudités and freshly made focaccia - I was given delicious home-made gluten-free bread - gorgeous marinated chicken thighs, with whole roasted baby new potatoes, delicious salad and rounded off with the most generous selection of the Tennis Cafe’s famous incredible home baked Cakes - three huge slices each of different flavours - the crowning glory of course for me being a massive three tier slice of the most heavenly gluten-free Victoria sponge cake!! The tennis Café is a haven at the best of times and last night it was truly magical. Lights twinkling on arrival, warm glow inside the café with people sitting chatting, drinking the cafe’s famous Moretti on-tap beer and glasses of wine, a warm buzz on the first truly chilly autumnal evening. Please do more nights like this so we can bring our friends!

I have been to Godfrey's restaurant a great many times over the summer for both breakfast and dinner and I've never been disappointed. The restaurant is located on the lower ground floor of Devonshire Park Hotel and the windows look out into the garden. The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxed and bright with some lovely pictures of local places on the wall. The staff here are kind and friendly. I never had to wait long for service. They serve a nice selection of wines at the restaurant or they would bring down gin & tonics and other beverages from the bar. The chef here cooks up some of the finest dishes in Eastbourne! I have dined here on several occasions and usually order one of the fish dishes - cod, plaice, sea bass, etc. and all the time they were very tasty and came with new potatoes and fresh veggies. I also tried the curries and a vegetarian stew - both were very good. The desserts were delicious - a particular favourite of mine was the coffee mascarpone mousse. They serve a proper English breakfast here and also have very tasty fruit salads, croissants, and danishes as part of their breakfast buffet. You will never leave here hungry and will always want to return again soon.

Afternoon Tea was greatly enjoyed at The Langham Conservatory in Eastbourne. Very attentive staff, lovely food served with great views. Could not fault it and highly recommended.

Excellent food, not dripping in grease, freshly cooked, good service and very efficient. Spotlessly clean would definitely recommend

Spent a wonderful evening with friends at the 1912. This was our first time, but we will be back and will recommend to friends. We all met in the hotel bar for drinks before dinner which was very civilised. The restaurant itself has not long been redecorated and had a very comfortable, informal and welcoming atmosphere. The menu was extensive with plenty of choice for those with dietary requirements. Between us we selected a variety of options and all were delicious. We ended our evening having coffee in the lounge. A great evening had by all. Thank you to all the team which made our evening so enjoyable.

In this restaurant you can get a delicious breakfast for a reasonable price. I can recommend it to everyone who visits Eastbourne.

Mixed impression. Great service, clean and comfortable interior. Only the food lacked quality. Unappealing sausages, very plain scrambled eggs, basic bread. Very basic overall. No coffee machine so low quality hot drinks. A little investment in quality products and even a little flavouring and spicing would greatly improve this café. Brunch was plain and unappetising, bland. Step up the sausage style! Spice it up a little - and all would be perfect.

28.07.2024. Fantastic atmosphere, amazing service, delicious food also available Portuguese menu which brought us memories of Portuguese holidays. Prices very good, portions large. 10/10 I recommend, I will definitely go back there again.

Well what a find,good selection of eats,had a bacon and cheese pastry thing and imust say it was the best I've ever eaten,place was clean staff were good as well

Lovely little cafe, excellent service, lovely hot home cooked food, very generous portions and great value for money. Recommend for a good value for money breakfast or lunch.

£7 a pint of beer? I get cheaper beer in Central London. Rip-off

Went here for a family Christmas meal during December and was easily the worst Christmas meal or even roast dinner I have ever had everything about it was absolutely awful I’ll be avoiding this place going forward

Do not confuse this cafe with OLD TOWN CAFE which is about 100yds west in Church St. A cafe but with training facilities for disabled adults.

Did not stay in a room but meal was nice. Service was great.

This is our absolute ‘go to’ for a great menu, lovely view and friendly, efficient service.
