Cafe Club in Hastings

Fries were raw, jacket potato with shrimp still frozen on the inside. En pie was tough and barely warmed up in the microwave. Glasses dirty and tables sticky. I've never had such bad food.

We waited 35 minutes for a breakfast and a sandwich which cane out as a salad People were coming in after us and getting there food befor us the excuse was she has to do hot food before cold food I wouldn't go there again

We sat outside for a late lunch. Latte and Earl Grey were perfect. We also had toasted cheese and I had Scampi, which was good quality and cooked perfectly (which is a lot harder than you think). Honest cafe, good value, nice staff who are good at their jobs and care. Will definitely be returning. Thank you ladies. X

I came here yesterday as I thought let me support a local business...ordered a sausage, bacon and egg toasted sandwich. £7.50. I waited 15 minutes for the sandwich and when it arrived I looked at it with equal parts disgust and dismay. I am from London and am no stranger to being fleeced but at least in London you get something reasonable for the extortionate price tag. I didn't realise the cost of living crisis extended to sandwich fillings in Hastings. The sausages looked like the cheapest quality frozen kind, like the 20 in a bag tesco value variety. The bacon and egg weren't much better. I asked the staff what the hell is this...and when I asked the server if she would pay £7.50 for that she at least had the grace to look ashamed and not reply. I walked out and left the sandwich behind.. I would rather lose the money than subject my taste buds to a war crime.

Terrible cafe, overpriced, the food was undercooked which made us all ill including our toddler. Even our dog didn't want the sausages which says a lot. They were very reluctant to provide a highchair outside as we had our dog with us. Complete waste of money. Just wished I'd read the reviews before going here. Will never return.

Quick coffee break during a wander round Hastings Good value nice coffee and teacakes, clean and friendly good value.

We have been twice now and love the breakfast , found it very welcoming

Probably the worst cafe I've even been in 🙄the menu makes no sense,the food was under cooked and we waited for ages.

Cafe Club is an experience that everyone should have if they like excellent food and polite staff..👌

Meat quality poor, orders served wrong, overall a poor dining experience. Wouldn’t recommend.

Avoid at all costs. Rude manager, rude staff. Highly priced.

Avoid this place until they sort themselves out. Poor quality breakfast. Poor service. Dirty tables. Dirty cutlery. Expensive prices. Its odd that a town centre cafe can get it so wrong.

Cheap nasty meat thimble of chips Cold coffee..yuk

Horrid over priced burger thimble of chips cold coffee...

Nice to have mushrooms cooked properly not thrown in a fryer like some do and in 1 inch bite size not sliced to death. As on a low carb diet had double mush with no bread egg sausage and bacon .they only change bread for toast but was happy to do this use evrytime I go to Hastings .have family down this weekend so if there early all 6 will be in here.

A great Cafe with friendly staff

Our lunch here was a catastrophe of errors and the food wasn't good. They lost our order and although apologetic we then waited ages for it to arrive once we had re-ordered. My glass of water had a hair in it and my fish burger with salad turned out to be a lonely and rather unappetising fish cake (which wasn't nice) in a bun with one slice of tomato and a little lettuce. This can hardly be construed as a salad. There was no garnish on the plate so the thing just sat there in the middle of the plate. They forgot the chips which we expected to be a decent size portion given the price but after I pointed out that we were still waiting for them. We were then presented with the smallest basket of fries (not chips) that I have ever seen. Nowhere near enough for 2 people so I let my husband eat them whilst I forced down the fishcake burger. We did tell the staff that it was one of the worst dining experiences we had ever had.

Had a realy fabulous breakfast hear it could match any 5 star restaurant Compliments too the chef

Not great but OK it is just what it looks like the service is good not expensive and food nothing special

Amazing kids and I enjoyed going and eating there, staff fantastic

Love iced coffee . Friendly staff

Amazing omelets and friendly staff in the heart of Hastings. A place to visit multiple times.

Lovely breakfast and chilled out local atmosphere. Will come again!

Brilliant breakfast lovely cup of tea.

Okay, it is a simple eating establishment with some outside tables amid a lot of competition nearby. The weather was awful but had just hit a brief dry spell. The lady cleaning the tables asked if we wanted a menu and fetched one, then I ordered 2 coffees and 2 teacakes with specific request for butter to be given separately and not on the teacakes. Coffees arrived nicely presented and hot followed by the teacakes already buttered which the lady who had taken the order saw and came over to apologise and asked if we wanted them replaced. I was okay with them but my partner does not like items buttered, she likes to do that herself, so her teacake was replaced with no fuss and more apology. Now, this is only really a small issue but the customer service, friendliness and prompt attention to correcting a mistake was fantastic and showed up the grumpy, bullying service we received later in the day at another establishment in the town. Thumbs up to the Cafe Club for their excellent service and staff willingness to make the customer experience a positive one.

Nice food but they lost our order took nearly hour to get food

I popped into this cafe for a spot of breakfast and must say the food was delicious and the service delightful... I shall visit again

Terrible experience. Took half an hour to make a tea and a hot chocolate, took 1.5 hours to make an English breakfast and an omelette. Omelette came wrong, with missing chips (it comes with chips automatically) when asked them to get it they took the omelette and came back with the chips, no omelette. When we questioned them about the missing food again, they snapped and we were told: "You can go". They weren't even busy, only 4 tables outside.

Day out before the kids go back to school stopped here for breakfast service was extremely slow and hot drinks were served cold, veggie breakfast sausage was still frozen inside 🤢 Bacon omelette was an omelette with a rasher on bacon stuck in the middle Awful don’t bother

Really disappointing experience. Waited 45 minutes for breakfasts to be told it's not the chefs fault you're being impatient. Could here the chef complaining about all the orders. Very poorly managed and no real Covid precautions. If you're a local you get served first and the locals like to watch and gossip about you. SHOCKING place

Worst cafe I've ever been to staff were rude and unhelpful. When I asked how long the food would be after a 45 minute wait I was told I was rude. When I paid I left the money on the table only for the waitress to shout out "oi you haven't paid" in front of other customers she hadn't even checked the table! Would definitely NOT recommend this cafe

picture perfect British cafe breakfast. When suffering a hangover, the stuff of dreams. Great coffee and the most polite and attentive service too :)

Been coming here casually since they opened in 2007, food is nice and the owners are lovely, tge staff who work here are friendly as well

Great little cafe. Staff were very helpful.

Look nice but service poor with only 4 customers in the shop. Not able to make ur own everything set and not able to swap items not wanted or liked. Expensive for what it is. Coffee was absolutely disgusting was more like hot milk and water.

Nice food. Friendly staff. Not too expensive. Outdoor seating also.

Worst cafe experience ever. As a single guy I am very well versed in how cafes function. In this dump, we had aleady waited 40 mins. At the absolute end of my patience I asked the waitress how much longer. When she said another fifteen mins, when it wasn't busy, only another 3 or 4 tables had customers, I left. She knew it was bad cos she was apprehensive to estimate the time. Just kept saying 'soon'. I'd never accept that so made her specify. Ordered a tea with our food too. Usually that comes almost immediately. Not this place though. After 30 mins I had to ask for the tea. It then took another ten mins to bring the tea. I've never received such a bad service in a cafe, and I go in them almost every day. Note that it wasn't busy, and about five people behind the counter. It's inexcusable. And when we left another guy paying had the exact same complaints. Avoid like the plague, or avoid like William the conqueror.

Myself and my wife decided to get away for a few days so decided Hastings was a nice please to get a break. When into the town and walked along the sea front and on way back to the car we see the cafe club so stopped for some food and staff members was very pleasant and polite plus the food was good. We both had the 7 item breakfast and had no complaints. Food was fresh and not reheated and that’s a good bonus. Enjoyed the food.

While you lot moan having two of the best looking staff members attract customers to come again. They are kind so do no disrespect them too much.

Ok place to get something to eat Bit expensive not enough staff poor girl who's on her own seems to be running off her feet

This is first time I been to this Cafe and to be honest, the staff is kind and young the two were awesome/polite/welcoming and feel they deserve more customers better than costa etc nice food nice staff.

Stopped in here as it was the first cafe we came across after leaving the station,Bad decision! I ordered a Tea & a 1/4 pounder/cheese,chips & salad.First cup of tea was really weak,asked for another,which was so strong i took it back and said don’t worry about it.Burger was horrible so I didn’t eat any of it.Partners breakfast was ok but I certainly wouldn’t go back the staff didn’t care I thought their food was rubbish.I paid in full.

Brilliant cafe with lovely service

Home made steak pie is incredible. Very good service. Highly recommend.

Decent food with generous portions for a good price. Service is excellent and food is fast coming

Sorry to say I would not return here... food was ok (apart from the sausages) but waited 45 mins for a breakfast. It wasn't particularly busy and so for me this is too long to wait for food in a cafe.

had lunch there the spring. Helpings were very generous. quality good. Much of the menu is homemade.

Amazing Breakfast, and great service

Nice simple food. Great service and prices. Superb for all day breakfast.

I’ve worked in a restaurant before so I know what it’s like, some people have there own opinion. Some people might complain, some others might not. Cafe club is great, service is perfect what’s not to complain about. It’s good

Had breakfast here, as a first meal in Hastings it was disappointing. Won't be back. You would be better off going to mcDonalds across the road.

I came down for the day got breakfast was looked after by a very polite helpful young lady had the breakfast 7 items was hot very tasty freshly cooked couldn’t have been more happy when I am down this way again will call back in so a big thank you love mr cheeky in Kent

My experience with this cafe was good. I could not fault the girl who was serving. Food took almost 20 mins to be served but I did not mind; my understanding is they cooked fresh. The chicken was well done and so was the vegetables. I personally like my gravy bit more spicy but how would they know! Overall my food tasted good and enjoyed a nice lunch out in the sun.

A really good café, with really good food. Add in friendly & helpful staff & you got yourself the best café in Hastings town.

Avoid!!! Waited 30 min for sausage & egg baguette which was very poor quality & tasteless. Staff very slow, unwelcoming & miserable. They also moan about customers within earshot. Would never visit this place again much more pleasant places to visit within the area.

Food was nice. But it really shouldn't take 20 so mins to make a egg and bacon baguette. Staff were friendly but seemed to keep complaining to other staff how they didn't want to be there that day as they had a late night out. This cafe needs massive improvement as its gonna start to lose customers. My opinion is that they need another cook.

Tried to visit and was slightly to wide to fit through one door so i asked them to open both doors which they replied, sorry I cannot open it and walked off! Certainly won’t be visiting again and will be advising others not to either.

Came down the weekend from Liverpool for the Beano on the sea festival! so being hungover wanted a nice big breakfast to sort the belly out!

Staff we're friendly but the food was terrible. Ordered a tuna mayo baguette and they had the tuna and the mayo separate in the baguette - vile and lazy, making me so all the work. This aint build a baguette - I'm not having any children's parties here!

Over-priced breakfast with the most appalling coffee for miles around!

Walked through the door and a member of staff shouted at us from the back of the cafe to shut the door in an attitude and a rude tone. Wasn't a welcoming greeting! Food was okay and prices were quite high. Then the same female staff member told an elderly woman to move to a smaller table incase more people came in (bearing in mind the cafe was empty!) which I thought was unnecessary. Not a smile in sight from the member of staff. Won't be returning.

Don't bother with this place. We were visiting family and fancied breakfast before we went. Waited nearly 30 minutes and paid £9 for 2x cheese on toast and 2 coffees. I honestly didn't think Cheese on toast was ruinable but I was so very wrong. It was one of the worst things I've ever eaten. We left the plates uneaten and the drinks undrunk and went to a bakers just around the corner. Don't go there, it was nasty !!

Snappy staff who discuss customers within earshot. Nice food and some nice staff but will not be returning. 😫

My partner and I went in for breakfast after waiting nearly 45 mins it turned up cold and for the price it was poor quality and if you would of blinked you would of missed it that is how small it was never use again

The cheapest burger that was rock hard, very unpleasant. Cheap ketchup that weirdly tasted of fruit, beans oddly served in a separate bowl. Service appallingly slow. My advice, keep walking past!!!

As the title says, the worst breakfast I've ever had by a long shot! I was already sceptical as soon as I read the tacky laminated menu and realised it was £5.80 for a standard breakfast (one of everything - Not including toast!) but we decided it would be worth it for a decent breakfast - unfortunately it certainly wasn't worth it, not even close - just under £15 for two breakfasts a small tea and a small orange juice! All the produce is from the local Iceland (which they weren't afraid to hide with empty packets of Iceland frozen chips and Iceland orange juice cartons laying around!) The sausages were yellow in colour and absolutely disgusting, the only edible part of the meal was the toast which arrived on our table twenty minutes after our breakfast.

£12:10 for two jacket potatoes n a overly price capachino (in the smallest cup available, I'm sure!) and can of coke.....at a £1! and then all written in danish on the can!.

Decided to pop in to avoid the rain! Friendly service and clean inside however the large tea was fairly short Would visit again - very busy all the time we were there with locals

Miserable staff and exceptionally slow service! We wont be returning.

A happy pleasant place with friendly staff and a very good cuppa!

Been once before, thought it slow, lazy and sloppy - but that was lunch. Today, thinking no one could faff a breakfast up, we tried it again. Shouldn't wasted our money. £1:80 for a so called large cappa. three cooked breakfasts, total £15:30. It took 25 minutes to cook it, including reminding them we had ordered... Did you know Fried eggs could bounce?? Burnt rasher of bacon, luke warm beans. The mushrooms were swimming in oil (deep fried?) the tomatoes tangy. Sausage was good, as was the hash brown - but £15:30 for three ediable sausages and hash browns is a mickey take. No discount or reduction by complaining, just got told" today they are busy". One cook - he cooks, one tables order at a time - no chance of multi tasking, with this guy. Another family, got up and left. Very bad service, very bad attidude - terrible value. My Advice, for what it's worth.... AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
