Okay as piers go I guess, not like Brighton but still a few places to eat and have a drink. They did have cream teas and a jazz singer so if you older I'm sure you would enjoy that.

We haven't been on the pier for years but were quite upset to hear it had gone up in flames.

The way it's been redone is really good and I think a lot better than how it used to be. It's much more consumer friendly and I love that there are loads of picnic tables near the beginning that you can sit on to relax, eat or have a drink. On a sunny warm day they will be lovely to eat your fish and chips or warm doughnuts - both of these shops are at the beginning of the pier.

As we walked around we came across the posh tea rooms which we nipped inside to have a look and found there is a little shop inside which sells some lovely evening handbags - all very reasonably priced!

We thought the price of a cream tea for one at £3.95 was excellent - one scone, strawberry jam, clotted cream and a pot of tea for one - wow, they looked lovely, will return here for one of those soon!

We really enjoyed our walk all around the pier and liked the gold lions - it looks really well maintained now and the views from the pier to the downs and the sea were as fantastic as ever and so beautiful.

This place is iconic of Eastbourne and a real treat to visit. The fact that it's free to come on is fantastic in this day and age and I would heartily recommend the pier to everyone for a visit and if you like shopping there are lots of shops to pop into on the pier too.

Just had a Shearings holiday in Eastbourne and stayed at The Burlington. Our room overlooked the pier and how lovely it was too. The promenade and gardens are immaculate and so too is the pier. The local students were enjoying the pier and beach and respected the area with great interest which was very refreshing to see. A good fish and chip restaurant at the pier entrance which was very popular. Definitely worth a visit. Parking on the promenade is very cheap too.

Eastbourne pier is a great way to get a good view of the seafront and takes you back to your childhood, there's a good ice cream parlour at the start of the pier and as you go further on there is amusements some dating back and are harmless fun there is also tourist shops which sell some good items as well as the normal things you find in a tourist shops, and the pier has places to eat as well a club/eating place worth a visit and remember your childhood memories of holiday

Visited with two children under 5. All enjoyed walking along it, playing in arcades, having a pic nic on the tables while taking in the views.
Nice & relaxed atmosphere.

Down sides:
Poor baby changing facilities (actually no baby changing facilities) And some arcade machines swallowed our money with no support people to assist to retrieve it. Had s very upset 4 yr old :(

Walked the length of the pier on a lovely day. Everything you'd expect is there for a traditional pier but I could not find any real ale served at the bar at the sea end of the pier... What a disappointment.

Another annoyance was one 'sideshow' having a ghastly constantly repeating recording blaring out across the pier. How those working nearby don't go mad I'll never know!

Nice pier to walk and observe but not a beer drinker's destination!

As a part of our heritage, no trip to the seaside is complete without a trip to the pier. Although part of this was destroyed by fire, there are still shops and cafes operating. A walk to the end will give a good opportunity to photo Eastbourne seafront. Chips, ice cream and candy floss keep the seaside traditions alive.

Had a walk along the Eastbourne Pier this evening (at about 6.00 p.m.) Whilst it was nice to get a different view and perspective of the Town from the Pier, that was about all there was to do apart from a couple of Amusement Kiosks. Even the Fish and Chip Shop at the entrance to the pier was closed, and was the Tea Rooms half-way along. Overall, somewhat disappointing, but perhaps it is better earlier in the day.

It's nice for a little stroll to the end but it's not in the best condition. Lots of rubbish blowing around.

I went to the pier this evening with a hope of grabbing fish n chips which was disappointingly shut, then got turned away from walking around the end because of some band being on in the nightclub. Still a few arcades available in the evening, but no ability to get the correct change for using in all arcade machines. So overall disappointed, but pleased it's reopened.

The pier is a little shabby but personally i think it adds to the charm of its age. It has been done up but the paint job is a little sloppy on expection and i think its in need of a thorough make over. There is only one bar and in comparison to the surrounding pubs the drinks are reasonably priced. There is a chip shop and a tea room a couple of small arcades and a gift shop.. and little else. Not really one for the kids but for a relaxing stroll, beer in the sun ans stunning views its perfect.

Since the fire Eastbourne pier has been revamped. It is now a lovely place to walk along and everything is new and freshly painted. A lot better than the old pier.

Now under new ownership and nicknamed the Sheikspier!! What's not to like when walking along one of the finest piers in England.
