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

Had a lovely meal here after a great walk along the sea front. The staff were friendly and helpful and the veggi sharing platter was lovely.

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

great food - the bottle of wine and cheeseboard were value for money.
very busy -with tv screens showing sport all over the place - but worth a visit for the food

Nice pub, with good service. There is a sign saying ask if you want a burger well cooked, and I'd advise against it as my burger cooked to normal extent was certainly well done to death - and was lost within it's bun. Chips also of the chunky but overdone oven chips type. Nothing to moan about but nothing to shout about either.
However, my friends who had various vege starters, had plates that looked a bit more appetising and indeed said so. A bit more effort had gone into these - and after all any old fool can bung a frozen burger in a skillet.

After a long walk around Eastbourne and finding that its not the most dog friendly location to be with regards to taking my dog inside as I am NOT STUPID enough to leave her tied up outside, I happened upon this little gem. The Crown & Anchor.
I walked in and was met by very friendly bar staff. A lady came straight away to see if my little buddy wanted a drink of water. She got a big bowl of cold water and my little dog Lapped up a load of it. Clearly very thirsty. Well.....that was this place sold as far as I was concerned.
I ordered a pint of Ale and sat drinking it whilst looking around. This place had a real traditional feel to it. All the bar staff clearly got on like they were all close friends yet were on the ball with regards to keeping the customers served.
It had a very friendly feel to it. I didn't eat but a lot of people were eating and the food looked amazing.
Ill be back in Eastbourne and will definitely go back to this place.

Definitely worth a visit, staff were lovely and friendly. The rodeo burger was delicious. However, the pints could be cheaper but other than that the place was clean and well presented.

Warm welcome with a friendly atmosphere. Plenty of tables but not too many. Good menu for pub grub and a specials menu on chalk board. The fish pie off the specials menu was delicious although almost too much for one person. The beer baked cod and chips also delightful and plentiful. A pub you can just sit and relax in. They aren't all like that! Pub is close to the sea front.

I contacted The Crown & Anchor as I was looking for a pub in Eastbourne which was showing the Six Nations rugby and could cater for a party of 12. I explained to the lady on the phone that we were in the area for a special birthday and the finals of the Six Nations was going to be one of the highlights. She was very helpful, even walking into the bar to help her decide which was the best table to reserve for us.
We arrived with much anticipation and were shown to our table which had excellent views of the television. We ordered food which was of a decent quality and several rounds of drinks as we enjoyed the penultimate match as a warm up to the England v Ireland game. As we settled to down to watch the anticipated final the television channel was switched to show football. Much to our dismay all the other televisions apart from ours were still showing rugby. We spoke to the bar staff and were told some other people who were sat the other side of the bar in front of a television showing rugby wanted to watch a local football match so we asked if the two television channels could simply be swapped. This was refused and the manager told us in no uncertain terms that if we did not like it we could leave. I may be cynical but surely we could have been told this would be the case either on booking or before we parted with a considerable amount of money on food and drinks. Sadly as the pub was packed with people watching the rugby we had no choice but to leave and return to our accomodation to huddle around a smalll television in one of the rooms to watch what was left of the match. Such a shame that staff attitude has prompted this review which would have otherwise been quite positive.

We had a family meal yesterday at the crown & Anchor and I cannot recommend it enough! I had the halloumi burger which was absolutely delicious and my husband had the roast which he said was the best roast he had eaten in years! (Not sure what that says about my cooking) The service was friendly and efficient and we had our 2 year old daughter who was made to feel welcome, would highly recommend! Great atmosphere and lovely decor!
