Visited this pub after hearing it had a new owner and good food. Well worth the trip, really friendly staff and good selection of food. I had a lamb burger, delicious, my partner had chilli. We both will definitely revisit as price was good too so real value for money.

If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself staying at the Shoreview Hotel, fear not, salvation is just around the corner. Out of the hotel !!! turn right and there is the Crown & Anchor. The staff are superb, the atmosphere friendly, the beer and wines are great,, and although we did not eat there, we almost snatched the food off the plate as it went by. You will travel a long way to match this establishment

Had a good Sunday roast, good portion and several vegetables alongside the usual potatoes. Good desserts with some homemade. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. As pubs go, this was well worth the visit.

We were looking for a Pub with a varied Menu to suit all our tastes which also allowed dogs and we were delighted to find the Crown and Anchor.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The menu was varied with an excellent children's choice too.We had a burger, spaghetti bolognese and smoked salmon quiche. All were homemade and tasty with lovely side dishes and superb value.
The pub was busy with both locals and tourists and had a real Pub atmosphere.A great find and we would definitely return when visiting Eastbourne again.

We stopped by here for a quick drink and really liked the atmosphere in this pub. The staff were really friendly and the drinks are reasonably priced.
We didn't have any food, but when it arrived at the table next to us we wished we had!

We visited this pub twice while in Eastbourne for the weekend. The Friday night was buzzing with a live band doing 80's covers. Well stocked bar with real ales and great friendly bar staff. Clientel is a mixture of locals and holiday makers of all ages with a friendly atmosphere. On the Saturday evening we watched the live football here (they have all channels) on big screen. After the football we settled down for a meal. Great selection of 'home' cooked food to suit all tastes and realistic prices till 9pm. Don't be put off by the 'scruffy' appearance outside, as this is under decoration by the new owners. One of the best pubs we visited in Eastbourne.

This pub has a nice location on the seafront, conveniently located near many of the town's hotels. The food is standard British pub fare and food quality is solid. We had fish and chips, sandwiches, etc. and all of our dishes were the standard you'd expect from a nice pub and arrived quickly. The atmosphere is also very cozy so it'd be a great place for a few drinks or coffee as well.

The first night we entered this pub it was so crowded we decided to try again the next night. What a fantastic meal! My husband had the lamb special, and I had pork belly. We would have paid at least twice as much for this quality of food at home....highly recommended, even if you need to wait!

Decided to eat here rather than at hotel restaurant - the bar/restaurant area was busy although we did get a table without waiting. Service was quick and friendly, ordering meals at the bar.
After a short wait, the meals arrived - very large quantities, good selection of vegetables included, nice and hot.
Absolutely nothing to complain about although not the place to go if you don't want to eat amongst all the drinkers in the bar.

On a glorious March Saturday my son and I had a couple of pints and an excellent pub meal at this wonderfully situated pub on the sea-front.
Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for this type of food.My son had fish and chips while I had belly of pork - both were delicious and there was plenty of it.

As the title says. She was given a very warm welcome and a bowl of water without having to ask. We were told we could sit anywhere. Food was very good, large portions reasonably priced.

Excellent family run pub that does home cooked food Wouldn't normally go in a pub that had sport running all the time but the service and food is just so good that this pub is highly recommended The fact that this pub is always very busy highlights just how popular it is.

More of a " sports" bar which serves fresh food, large portions.
Very friendly efficient staff. Varied menu good value.
Not a venue where you can relax.

This pub is close to the sea front. A traditional house with wooden floors and decor, the food was to die for, fresh and beautifully cooked-we have never had pub food which tasted as if it had just been prepared and so reasonable! The menu varied and diverse, the service was excellent.
The only downside was the increased drafts as the two doors were opened very frequently to accommodate smokers despite the fact that the pub actually provided a seated smoking area-try to get a table away from the doors!

We stayed in a hotel near the pub and popped in for a beer, found the staff very friendly and ended up having a few more and a meal. The steak was excellent as was the cottage pie - plenty of veg as well.

We only popped in her because it was raining for a quick drink, we ended up going back for 2 nights to live bands and great atmosphere. Was a great time this was like our holiday local.
Food in here is amazing, make sure your starving before you order. Lovely big portions and fantastic food, I had chilli burger and my hubby he had half chicken, everything was delicious and hot. Well done to the chef. And thanks to all the staff you were all helpful

The place was packed, music was Ska, Bad Manners tribute, good vibes. Everyone seemed to be having a good time and we even danced a bit!

What can i say? Nowadays its very rare you find a warm and welcoming traditional pub in Eastbourne, so what a find the Crown and Anchor is. Visited a few days ago with a friend. We were welcomed with a friendly smile as soon as we entered. There was an excellent choice of beers and lagers on tap. The choice of menu was outstanding. I chose a sirloin steak and it was cooked to perfection. My friend chose the belly pork and this too was extremely tasty. Neither of us could believe the value for money of both meals. What a lovely experience and we will be back.
