Nice, friendly Greene King pub with a good range of ales. Although almost on the front it is east of the pier and popular with locals and tourists alike. Effectively two rooms - a lounge and a sports bar. Extensive and reasonably priced menu with specials, not the usual GK fayre. Regular music nights and always served with a smile.

On the road parallel to the front and facing the sea, this is an excellent, friendly local serving good, indeed excellently kept, beer and food with a smile. If I lived in, rather than was only visiting Eastbourne, I would make this a regular "pit stop". A comfortable and well appointed pub with a separate "sports bar" section, this was a friendly pub with chatty locals and engaging, cheerful bar staff. Highly recommended.

Lovely pub, with super friendly staff.. Was very disappointed with the food though, bland and tasteless, garnish was gruesome dried shrivelled cucumber, salad leaves where old and having the burger which came on a bun 3 times it size, overcooked burger and bacon, plastic cheese and soft greasy chips. My partner had a lasagne which was over microwaved and barely ate it. would have been 5* otherwise.

Lovely friendly bar with great food served promptly with no hassles. It also has music venues 3 or 4 times a week. Old fashioned styled English pub.

A very comfortable, well-staffed pub just off the seafront near the pier. The food is excellent. Popular with locals and holidaymakers alike - and they really are dog friendly too! Live music Thursdays, Friday's and Saturdays. Highly recommended.

Stopped off for lunch. A good selection of beer, cider, wine etc was available. We decided to have a sandwich lunch. with a side serving of chips. I had brie and my partner a cheddar cheese sandwich. There was certainly no scrimping with the fillings and the sandwiches were served with a lovely fresh salad. The chips were delicious and were also freshly cooked.

Very good location, right on the front - the only pub as far as we could tell that was. Saturday lunchtime on a fairly grey day a very buzzy atmosphere filled with locals and tourists. The football was on the television but it wasn't intrusive.
We had sandwiches and chips both good.Unlike most of the rest of Eastbourne which is tired and needs a makeover this pub was somewhere that shows foreign tourists the best side of Britain.

What a lovely little pub. Food was fantastic and the bar staff were lovely, so helpful and all seemed so cheerful. Food was really nice and very reasonable. A real gem. Seems to be very busy in the evenings due to live entertainment so top tip get their before 7pm to ensure you get a table.

We visited this pub twice during our stay at a nearby hotel, one time for a family meal. The pub itself has a lovely atmosphere and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. We had our dog with us on both occasions and the staff made a fuss of him and brought him some water.
There is a good selection of drinks including some real ales. We also found the food to be fantastic. All of our group of 6 had different meals and we were all very pleased with them, with my son saying that the ribs he had were the best ever.

We popped in on our second night in Eastbourne as the pub was closest to our hotel. A clean and tidy chain pub. However at £4.35 for a pint of Carling we didn't go back.

After a walk at Beachy Head with my aunt and uncle, we needed a good meal. A quick search of "near me now" restaurants revealed the Crown and Anchor. It was perfect. Friendly service, good basic menu. Great daily specials menu. We ordered the pate as a starter, which was perfect. Three separate mains, which we shared. Each dish had multiple components. All were delish. The ONLY improvement would be to exclude or improve the "stuffing" served with the pork belly. It was too crispy. Otherwise every single item in each dish was truly wonderful and I'm a tough person to please.

I stayed a few hundred yards away on a stormy weekend so this was my "local". The atmosphere, service, food, facilities and weekend entertainment could not be faulted.

Had a great meal on a sunny trip to Eastbourne. We had Lamb shank, bbq burger and cheese burger, all fantastic. Beer great too, had a pint of Olde Trip. Owner and staff all really friendly, will come again.

We stayed in Eastbourne for Easter and we were really pleased we came across this gem of a pub.
We ate there on Easter Sunday evening and the food was excellent. I had the half chicken roast and my wife had the lamb shank roast and we both agreed it was the best roast dinner we have ever eaten out. We also had garlic mushrooms with Brie for a starter which again was excellent and the portion was very big.If you want exceptional food with large portions this is the pub to go to.
Brilliant bar staff, great beer and a lovely atmosphere😄👍

My sister and I walked to the Beach Deck only to find we should have booked for lunch. So we headed back into the icy wind to find somewhere to eat. And we came upon the Crown and Anchor Pub. We entered a dinky little interior, clean and with wooden floors and tables not all squished together. We ordered from a decent menu - my sister had a fish pie and veg and I had the minted lamb burger with chips. Both were excellent. Service was great and we enjoyed just some quiet time chatting and eating wonderful filling food.

Visited the crown and anchor for an early mother's day family meal.
Lots of choice on the menu, including a kids menu and a superb specials board.The pork belly is a definite must as are all the roasts and comes with 7 different veg!
Oh and not forgetting the gorgeous roast potatoes!Service was good, prices were reasonable and portion sizes are big.
Brilliant traditional pub grub.
