Me and my hubby and a friend were recommended to go here for food by a local resident on our recent trip to eastbourne. Boy am I glad we did. The service was fantastic, the staff were all really polite and friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic. Definitely coming again next time we are in Eastbourne

Lovely pub right by the beach. We sat outside the front as it was a gorgeous day. My friend had the veggie burger which he said was lovely. I had the homemade vegetarian quiche & cheesy garlic bread which was gorgeous.
If in the area again we would go back.

We have visted the Crown & Anchor pub several times over4 years, this year we felt it did not have such a good apmosphere, as it had got very load even early in the evening due to local builders now useing it at about 5pm when it used to be quiet and nice to eat early, we also felt while the menu was much the same as usaul, the food was not up to their usaul standard and care in presentation was now very poor, salad was limp and old and not arranged apetisingly, condiments were in mucky containers which needed a wipe....

Came here to watch the European Championship final. Very good atmosphere and selection of drinks. Would definitely recommend to watch matches in there.

End of year staff party Thursday 21st July. The function room at the Crown and Anchor is upstairs. Good size room plenty of room to dance the night away. The buffet that was presented was to a high standard and enjoyed by all. The staff working on our event were efficient and professional. The evening was enjoyed by all and we have booked again for our Xmas party.
Down stairs in the pub was buzzing and plenty of people eating. We thank the staff for such a good night.

We visit Eastbourne every year to visit family. We stay on the seafront and the crown and anchor is 2 minutes walk from our hotel. Good quality food at a reasonable price. The ribs are to die for as is the lasagne and burgers. A big advantage is its dog friendly too as we always take our dog with us. Lovely food and friendly staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

Good beer at a good seafront venue not far from the pier. Efficient friendly bar staff and a good crowd in to listen to the talented Mel Hayes.

Lovely location right on the seafront, with a view of the sea from the patio at the front (if you look over the road, anyway). A wide selection of good food is available - it seems to be of the mass-produced kind, but is good quality and well cooked. Pleasant, if somewhat cramped, interior (too many chairs and tables in what is, after all, quite a small pub), and friendly, helpful staff. Definitely one to return to.

We sat outside here with beer and wine which was very enjoyable and right on the seafront.
Did not eat here but spoke to a couple who said the food was really good they had ribs, prawns, etc.
Prices were very reasonable.

Had a couple of meals here and they were lovely. The pub is very family friendly (up until 9pm) and they made a real effort to fit us in. Food was nice and service was excellent. Music was great too, although we had to ship out with the kids so couldn't stay for all of it! Very close to the seafront, even with views of the sea if you stand up and look over the sea wall!

Booked a table and arrived slightly early but this wasn't a problem. We were shown to our table with no fuss.

Great, delicious choice of food and friendly fast service.

Thoroughly recommend.

I've eaten here a few times this year, the food is excellent and the portions are huge, not normally any room left for a pudding.
Last time I visited we ordered what we wanted from the menu, the food arrived after a short wait, but I am certain the plates are smaller than before and the portions are definitely smaller , I finished my meal with ease and was still quite hungry.Is this a crafty way of increasing the price of the food ??
That said it's still an excellent pub, great atmosphere and friendly welcoming staff.

This pub was next to our hotel but we were busy all week and last night we had a beautiful 10oz Ribeye steak!! It was love served on a large slate with lovely roast vine tomatoes, chunky chips
mushrooms and it was delicious. As we left they were setting up speakers for music. It is a Very friendly and family orientated pub. Would definitely return..

We had two enjoyable days away and this place made our escape perfect. It was just across the road from our hotel and we used it just like our local back home. From beers in the early evening sun to a nice evening meal. The menu was clear and there's a good specials board if you fancy something different. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic food and a really friendly pub. The function room was a good size without being too large and impersonal.
