Only called in for a drink but looked at the menu and some of the food going out - I will return!
The bar itself is light and airy, staff friendly and efficient and prices not too bad for the area.The menu looked very appertising with some very interesting dishes.

Olde Trip on draught and probably the best fish pie i have ever had in a pub......only very slightly bettered by a fish pie at Rick Stein's restaurant in Padstow. Praise indeed! Staff were really friendly too.

Went here with my husband last Thursday and we loved it! It was quite busy at first so we sat round the back near the pool table and ordered our food but the lovely waiter was quick to tell us when a table in the main area became free. The lamb shank and the fish pie were both prefect! The waiter service was so handy too, there's a lot to be said for not having to keep going up to the bar! A young lad was doing acoustic 'covers' which he'd really put his own mark on and played loads of our favourite bands. It turned out he was only 16 which made us even more in awe of him - a little star in the making! We played pool at the end of the night and were the last to leave - thanks to all the staff - this was our favourite pub in Eastbourne!!

Tasty and well cooked meal. Served by very polite and friendly staff. Very good value for money too. Pleased we found this pub.

We ate here on 2 consecutive nights. The service was excellent, the staff attentive, friendly and plentiful, the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. I think I can safely say that their home made vegetarian quiche was one of the nicest that I have ever tasted. Highly recommended, particularly if you are a vege.

This little gem of a pub was behind our hotel. Started out there for lunch, fantastic Mediterranean sharing platter, and ended going back for dinner the following night. Good, honest pub food in a lovely setting with lovely staff.

We went here for a family meal. It's a bit out of the way, but well worth it.
I had the liver and onions which was plentiful and well presented - as we're all our meals. The good food was backed up with good service. Service was a little slow if I was honest, but it gave us time to chatter, and we weren't in any hurry, so not a problem.I'd happily go back for another meal!
Many thanks for a wonderful dining experience

Nice pub but couldn't find a seat. Very good band playing and good atmosphere with plenty of helpful friendly bar staff. Good location near the seafront/hotels and looks good after its refurbishment.

Whilst on holiday in Eastbourne, visited this pub for a meal in the evening. Enjoyed the food, but felt that I was rushed through my meal. Could not relax. First, of all, found a table, but it was dirty, so one of the barmaid came with a dry cloth and wiped the table. Not hygienic at all. And then whilst we were eating our meal, she kept walking up and down and keeping an eye on us on our progress. As soon as I had the last byte in my mouth, she rushed over and with a smile "have you finished sir?" While I was still chewing my food. I looked around and every table, the same thing happening. Just want a quick turnaround! Please improve your hygiene and clean the tables properly & let us enjoy the good atmosphere in the pub.

First visit there tonight. Fantastic staff and the food was great. Good size and value for money. My daughter who's 6 wanted ice cream but there was a half hour wait as quite rightly the food order is placed in a queue. I couldn't wait for half an hour so told my daughter we would have to go. She was a little upset by this. The lady behind the bar then went and did the ice cream herself to ensure my daughter got her beloved chocolate icecream this was fantastic service. We live a 20 minute drive away and will definitely be going back.

We searched for somewhere to eat that wasn't a hotel and found the perfect place, it was so good we walked back there every night of our stay at Eastbourne. The food is fantastic especially the homemade chicken pate, all the staff were very helpful and friendly, it was sometimes hard to find a table as it was always full up because its so popular, but we didn't mind waiting it was that good.

We were happy to find that food was still being served at 2.15 pm on a weekday at this pub situated near the pier. The real ale ('Old Trip' on this occasion) was very good and the chilled Pinot Grigio was fine. Our fish and chips were very reasonable priced and very good: crispy batter, chunky white flakes of fish, plenty of salad garnish, a generous portion of chips all accompanied by a wedge of lemon and tartare sauce. The service from both bar staff and kitchen staff was very friendly. Boards were advertising live music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from 9pm.

My family and I ate here 4 times during a 7 day stay in Eastbourne & the food was always tasty and well cooked (apart from a quiche with an uncooked soggy bottom). The young bar staff could be a bit more attentive and less interested in preening themselves. The white wine was never properly chilled and when we complained to young woman behind the bar she suggested we put ice cubes in it! I suggested they served it chilled at the correct temperature and was given some ridiculous guff about health and safety. If you're charging ÂŁ4.75 a glass it should be chilled and not luke warm or put enough in the wine chiller & keep it properly re-stocked.

Cannot fault food, which was excellent for all 4 of us.
However service severely lacking.2 meals arrived very quickly, well presented and well cooked.
Unfortunately 2 did not :-(Upon checking with the staff it appeared the two outstanding meal orders had not been actioned.
Duty manager apologised and when we pointed out that 2 of our group had finished their meals we were simply offered the option to cancel :-(Not realistic as we still needed feeding !
Discount or a drink would have been a more positive solution.Great food but service means unlikely to return.

A great little pub just off the prom in Eastbourne. A good selection of real ales and a menu with a good variety. The food is excellent, large portions and cooked to perfection. It can get very busy, it has live music Fri/Sat nights.

It isn't often you can visit a place three times in three nights and say you have enjoyed the meals EVERY time !
On the third occasion we invited friends, everybody had different meals, and everyone was delighted by the standard of the food. The chef has a very imaginative menu so even the bog standard "sausage and mash" was a success.This was not my first visit, having been there on a few previous occasions, and every time the standard and choice has been excellent.

This recently refurbished upgraded pub serves great food. Service by attentive staff is very quick. On a sunny day the upstairs balcony is a great place for a drink. The downstairs bar has a good atmosphere enhanced by food of excellent quality at reasonable prices.
