We really love this pub however come summer times we tend to go else where,we find year after year the chairs outside the front are really uncomfortable, very bad quality. It's such a shame because this weekend the Carnival is in town and as much as we would like to be at the Crown & Anchor, we will be choosing another venue.
If only those chairs were of better quality!

Came for the band. Very lively. Service was good. Drinks were a little expensive (but the band was free, so it's expected). Many people eating but I didn't, so can't comment on the food. Had a GREAT night.

A great little pub with atmosphere, locals meat here and it was nice to chat with them, we had a casual meal there which was very generous and tasty.

We'd been to the Crown & Anchor previously, so were expecting great pub grub.
Our orders were efficiently taken and the drinks were perfect, however, the food was on this visit disappointing.We both had fish & chips, and the batter on the fish was rather soggy and the chips soft and a little under-cooked.
We're not sure we'll be back .... a reputation lost on us !!

Best Sunday roast in pub, ever! Excellent quality and very generous portions. Lovely friendly service and child-friendly (kids portions are enormous), good IPA on draught. Highly recommend and will visit next time in vicinity.

I've been to many pubs in my life, and the Crown and Anchor is a normal, nice pub.
Eastbourne is a town close to Brighton, at the end of the Seven Sisters trail. The pub is a convenient location for a meal at the end of the long walk. I truly suggest it.
That said, well, it's a (Green King) pub! Enjoy your beer, the chunky chips and the friendly environment. The lamb burger was original and tasty.

Nice pub close to our hotel (Queens) Good selection of beers although a little dearer than my local in the Midlands. Did not have any food as we were on half board at our hotel but each and every meal that came by me looked delicious. If you are a sports fan then the is an area for you, pool, darts and TV

Whether you want a good pub meal or something more substantial, the food here is excellent. Staff couldn't have been more friendly as were the regular customers. Also very dog friendly.

This was our first visit to this Pub/Restaurant and the going was great. The place had a welcoming atmosphere with no kids running about unchaperoned like in Wetherspoons or the Carverys. There was no music or gaming/amusement machines either just good food and alcoholic drinks of your choice as well as espresso coffees.
the staff were very pleasant and welcoming. The food we had was delicious and in very ample proportions . The starters were plentiful we had Mushrooms in Garlic butter with garlic bread and Tempura Prawns.for the main courses we had a steak meal done to perfection and a Pesta Pasta dish. They have a great chef and my compliments to him. Can thoroughly recommend this pub, we will be back.

The function room itself is a good size with ample bar area for size of room with dancefloor and own toilets. Can also see the sea from it. The buffet that was supplied by the pub was one of the best buffets I have eaten (there has been a few). Proper cuts of meat, antipasta, prawns really top end food which was great. Service good and bouncers friendly. Ideal for a party.

This is a lovely friendly pub with a good atmosphere, There's an extensive menu both in the menu on the tables and some excellent alternatives in the blackboard. The staff are pleasant and polite. Recommend this pub for a drink or a meal.

I can't really say much about this venue as I have only been there once. That was for an engagement party in the function room which was up a flight of stairs. Couldn't see any disabled access to this area so had to climb the stairs which wasn't easy. Staff were very happy & helpful on the night.

Great food and service. The kids loved their chicken wings and my Thai fish cakes were sublime! We weren't very hungry so just had starters but the mains looked great, will def return!

I was impressed with the speed i was served the beer was good and I also ordered food I didn't wait very long and when it came the portion was huge I had the fish and chips which was really good, the staff were polite and friendly would recommend a meal at the crown and anchor if you stay at the seafront it's near the pier

Great pub for family meals, meeting friends, playing pool or watching footie. Seen some great bands on Friday and Saturday nights too. The awesome function room upstairs is a cut above anywhere else in Eastbourne for celebrating special events. Got to say the bar staff don't keep you waiting and always have a laugh too - great boozer :-)

Went here a few years ago and again last night. Great friendly atmosphere. Attentive staff who point out waiting customers to each other to save them waiting. Good beer and decent live music. Although I was on my own I didn't feel alone.

During our few days stay I eastbourne during easter half term, my other half had spotted this pub on the corner just a stones throw from where we were staying. I was a bit sceptical as from the outside it looked a little like any old pub, but it has been decorated with modern touches. The menu was traditional pub classics but lovely to see they had vegetarian and vegan food. What we ordered all came out piping hot...I had the cod...it was beautifully flaky and the batter was really bubbly. I was proven wrong and would eat here again. My little boy enjoyed his kids meal and they even accommodated my request for carrots with his peas...try and counter weigh the chips he's eaten two nights in a row haha. Would recommend...tasty food, nice local atmosphere and good prices. I understand why the got pub of the year 2016
