Great building for a selfie from the pier. However, once you walk it, there are little food stands and ice cream spots, but not much else.

Worth it a visit! Especially during the weekend;)<br>Live music at its best x

Nice place to walk and have lunch

Uwielbiam Eastbourne , wspaniale widoki , cudowne klify I muzyka na źywo na molo .

One of the finest examples of a Victorian pier, Eastbourne's stunning seafront landmark, Eastbourne Pier, is a must-see attraction if you are visiting this beach resort on the south coast. It’s a construction with much history, and a few disasters which has shaped it into its present form. Work on construction of the Eastbourne pier began on 16 April 1866 and it was opened by Lord Edward Cavendish on 13 June 1870, although it was not actually completed until two years later. On New Years Day 1877 the landward half was swept away in a storm. It was rebuilt at a higher level, creating a drop towards the end of the pier. During World War II the decking was removed and machine guns were installed in the theatre providing a useful point from where to repel any attempted enemy landings. In 1970 the theatre on the pier was destroyed by fire, and in In 2014 the pier caught fire again, this time destroying the large arcade and saloons in the midway. Since then the pier has since renovated and repainted, with new benches t added to the open deck area and more entertainment provided for visitors.

The pier is roughly 1000 feet long. It is effectively built on stilts that rest in cups on the sea-bed allowing the whole structure to move during rough weather.

It’s a great place to wander, to photograph, to sit awhile, to enjoy the bracing sea air, to take in the views, to enjoy some food and drink, or to try your luck in the amusement hall at the seaward end. It’s been beautifully restored, and is visually pleasing to the eye. In my opinion is is much nicer than the Brighton Pier further along the coast.

The pier has a variety of shops, a chippy, the Waterfront cafe/bar, the Atlantis nightclub, the Victorian Tea Rooms, Coffee Republic, and a great place selling Greek-style gyros. I had lunch there, and the souvlaki was fresh and delicious, and very reasonably priced at £6.00. There are souvenir stalls, a tarot card reader, and a pavilion with all the arcade games and electronic wizardry you usually find in fairground arcades. The loveliest thing was the extensive seating around the edge of the pier. It was being well-used by locals and visitors.

It’s a great attraction which adds to the life of Eastbourne, and it is certainly worth a visit. You’ll get some fine views to the south, along the promenade to the Ferris wheel, the Martello tower and Beachy Head beyond, and to the north.

Delightful, breath taking scenery. No charge. A charming shop at the end of the pier, the lady behind the counter, friendly and showing me her crotchet work. A fishing tackle shop the chap who ran it was so informative about the fishing.

Amusements area a little small

This place has peace and tranquillity and There is a sweet scent in the air 🌸

a lovely day in Eastbourne. great walk along the promenade

I really like Eastbourne as compared to Brighton. It's peaceful, very good way to walk along the sea with great views, less crowdy and Town center is nearby where all the pubs and restaurants available.

Worth it for the experience

Was here yesterday with the lovely Ursula and our grandchildren.

This is one of the original piers around the British coastline and it’s well worth a visit.

Unfortunately many of the old buildings on it were burned in a huge fire a few years back but it’s been restored really well and on a nice day, it’s really lovely.

It’s ideal as part of a walk along the wonderful promenade.

Nice for a walk but most places closed and looking very roundown

Stunning location of the pier, sea and pebble beach. Even more glorious when the sun is out shining. There's various shops and things to do, fish & chips, a bar, selection of ice creams, victorian tea room, arcade, mini golf, fishing shop, crystals & candles shop and a gift/souvenir shop. Stunning views and you can see the start of beachy head cliffs from a distance and the sound/sight of the seagulls.

Nice walk to the end, couple of gift shops and bar

I visited during the week on holiday. A lot of places were not open at all any day I went and some were open once and not again even though the opening hours said they should be.

Got to love people who complain that they can't take their dog somewhere. You chose to have a dog, so if somewhere doesn't allow dogs then get over it. That's like me and my wife complaining because we can't take our baby into a strip club 😂 we chose to have kids so can't complain if we can't go into an 18+ venue.<br>Great pier and can't fault it

Lovely walk with family on the pier certainly recommend

Very good weather was great

Lovely seaside gem.

Eastbourne is a lovely place very clean and peaceful nice pier there ia a wonderful open top bus tour which is a must

Great for romance.

Nice place to be when the sun is out.

Lovely pier, shame they do not allow dogs on it as most of Eastbourne is dog friendly.

Beautiful place to disconnect from the daily routine.
