Cinnamon Cafe in Rother

Great food in a clean cosy environment with lovely service.

Saturday lunch. Warm and welcoming. Super choices for starters, mains and deserts. Unusually, a really good range of options for 'wheat free'. Deserts hand made in house - delicious and beautiful. Short wait, your meal is made to order - not a formulaic fast food caff.

Great food, good service. Something really different for Bexhill. Would recommend.

Very friendly, reasonable prices, good decorum and coffee.

A lovely place to spend time with friends. Delicious food and lovely friendly staff.

A delightful venue serving excellent food - first rate!

The best baklava in town. Freshly made in the cafe. ♥️

Just had an excellent afternoon tea the food was great and staff very attentive highly recommended

Had the fantastic Sijok breakfast and a delicious coffee - excellent service and great food - what a find :-)

I am a coeliac, so can’t eat gluten. The staff and the owner couldn’t have been more helpful. Subsequently I and my family had a great experience with delicious food whether you were coeliac or not. Would definitely recommend and would go again.

Went there for lunch, food was excellent. I can't eat the bread so without me asking they substituted with a delicious beetroot side

Very tasty food, I can't eat bread so they gave me a very tasty pickled beetroot side without my saying anything. My wife had smoked salmon with scrambled egg - loads of salmon

My wife and I had lunch. We ate basturma, halloumi and falafel wraps. All of the food was well prepared, full of flavour and most enjoyable. The staff were helpful and attentive. It was very good value. We will return. PS basturma is similar to pastrami but is fuller flavoured and more succulent; a special treat.

I don't think I have ever left a review of the Syrian Lounge despite being a regular of this and Khaled's last café for a good 5 years. The food here is, without doubt, THE best in Bexhill. Don't go if you're expecting a full English breakfast, but if you enjoy exotic flavours, beautifully presented, a spotlessly clean environment and warm, friendly staff then this is the place for you!!

My wife and l have been coming here every month or two for the last year. We came again today and the food was the usual fantastic high standard - we had the Chicken Kabsa rice and a halloumi wrap. Just one thing cast a shadow : one of the waitresses was very miserable which made us uncomfortable. It doesn’t take much effort to smile and be polite…..It would have got you your usual tip from us.

Amazing food. Great lunch, exotic drinks. Best place in Bexhill-On-Sea Recommend for any type of visit. Lovely people

I joined a group for lunch at the Syrian lounge yesterday and was impressed with how organised they were with regard to having our orders ready and dealing with a group of around 10 people all getting individually itemised bills which can be an issue at many restaurants. I chose their breakfast brunch menu and had poached eggs with avocado and balsamic dressed grilled vegetables. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly, always a good test and the whole dish was well balanced and very enjoyable.

I went to the Syrian Lounge for the first time as a part of a group of nine for a Christmas Lunch today. We had a wide variety of dishes and desserts - all beautifully presented and delicious. Staff very helpful without being over-attentive. Plenty to choose from and very good value.

Wonderful food, freshly cooked and beautifully presented. This is a lovely, easy to access place in the centre of Bexhill with great staff and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Lovely food and friendly staff.

The food was truly delicious. However, my order was incorrect. Ordered the avocado breakfast but received the smoked salmon breakfast instead. The fruit smoothie and chai latte were great

Food absolutely delicious, flavours were on point. Would definitely recommend

Having regularly visited for coffee (good and very reasonably priced), we saw that they were now opening Friday evenings so had a family celebratory dinner there. The food was delicious and the range of dairy free choices impressive. The bill was very reasonable and the atmosphere relaxed, so we will definitely be returning for an evening visit.

Just had a lovely family celebration Friday evening dinner - delicious food (on this occasion tagines, shawarma and dairy free options) and our own alcohol. A relaxed and very reasonably priced meal - we will definitely book again.

Visited with my dad and friend we had breakfast which was delicious. Very friendly service & would definitely visit again.

Second visit here and wasn't disappointed. Whatever you choose it is cooked fresh and tastes amazing. Can't wait until next visit. Mediterranean chicken is superb.

Great for somewhere different. Food okay large portions. We both had a chicken dish can't remember what it was called

First time visit with friends. All had tagline meat dishes, which were all freshly cooked and delicious. Very friendly and efficient service. Nice atmosphere clean and welcoming. Would recommend.

Absolutely delicious nourishing tasty tender succulent Lamb Tagine, real soul food. Especially if you feel under the weather and don't want to cook. Thank you Syrian Lounge that was just what the doctor ordered 😋😋😋

Good variety of choice on the menu, we had tzatziki, humus and grilled halloumi for starters, and flavoured rice (lamb) and shawarma for mains. The food was well prepared, quick, plentiful and absolutely delicious. Full marks!

Ate lunch here with my sister and we both loved it! It’s clear that the chef takes pride and care in his cooking which results in delicious food! It’s good for vegetarians as well. My vegetarian sister ordered the halloumi wrap which she loved and I thought it was very nice when I tried some and I have the lamb tajine which was beautiful! I am absolutely returning here!

Very much enjoyed a falafel wrap, topped off with a homemade baklava (a decadent and delicious lunchtime treat) and Syrian tea. Exquisitely prepared, wonderfully fresh - this was a superb lunch. Judging by the dishes other diners were eating at the restaurant, the rest of the menu looks equally good too! Highly recommend

Ordered chicken cabsa, looks like the food was left over and reheated. The cashews were burnt, only 6 tiniest pieces of chicken

No matter what I have the food is consistent, cakes excellent, coffee delightful on the pallet. Highly recommend the Syrian lounge. If you are adventurous like to try new food then look no further, you will not be disappointed. Tony and Rhonda. 1 August 1923

Brilliant authentic food and lovely relaxing atmosphere. Smoothies were amazing. On our Visit we were lucky to pick a window seat and had first class view of Bexhill Carnival procession passing by. Anyway back to the food. We both had the Tagline which was cooked to perfection and the spices were flavoursome. Will definitely be going back.

My frind and I enjoyed a very nice lunch today at The Syrian Lounge. He had the chicken tagine and I had the Shawrama. It was excellent but I had a job finishing the meal as it was very large for a lunch. The ambience was great along with the decor and the waitresses. Will go there again

A friendly place for authentic tasty Syrian food. Nice and cool inside. Were even allowed to bring along dog, very much appreciated. Thank you. Pity you are not open in the evenings. A candlelight oriental dinner would be lovely.

Friendly staff, excellent food. It was hot outside but in the restaurant it was nice and cool. The Beetroot Hummus and the Baba ganush were excellent as was the Tabouleh.

Highly recommend this place. Second time visited and again was not disappointed at all. Service was great, food was great, cakes and Baklava was very nice, the coffee was exceptional. I love this place and fell very relaxed and satisfied indeed. All freshly cooked and homemade, there is something for everyone on the menu.

so tasty ,lovely place to eat any time of day ,would defo recomend

Lovely lunch of lamb tagine and shawarma, followed by the best piece of freshly made baklava I’ve tasted. Excellent friendly service, can’t recommend the Syrian Lounge highly enough. Shame we don’t live closer!

Just perfect. Lovely people. Incredible flavours. Relaxed setting. Eat falafel, drink tea, soak up the hospitality.

Delicious authentic food with excellent and super friendly service.

I had lunch at the Syrian lounge for the first time yesterday. The service was great, the owner Khaled was very welcoming. We ordered a bit of meza, and the for main dish I had Kabsa and the rest of us had Chicken Shawarma. I have lived in the Middle East for over 13 years and I can guarantee that The food is amazing, very tasty and authentic. I will definitely go back, thank you Khaled.

Earlier today I enjoyed the spinach and goat's cheese quiche, accompanied by a potato, carrot and pea salad in a light mayonnaise sauce. This was washed down by a delicious Moroccan mint tea. The café was quite full - I was glad to get a table. Not only is the food delicious, but the service is splendid too. And the Middle Eastern music ... I just love it. As well as welcoming groups, Syrian Lounge is ideal for solo customers, whether for lunch, breakfast, or a quick pot of tea or coffee. I thoroughly recommend people giving it a try.

excellent service.I was recommended and fully agree that it’s the best in bexhill

What a gem! We had a lovely lunch here. Friendly service. The place is spotless and welcoming. The food delicious. We'll definitely be visiting again.

10/10. Ambience was excellent. Staff accommodating and friendly, as it was an occasional lunch. Food was superb, yet simple and extremely well presented. Dessert was equally tasty and coffee just rounded off the perfect lunch. Can't wait for an excuse to go there again as the menu is above normal for choice and salivating for more.

Good excellent can't wait untill it opens in the evening which I understand will be when the warmer weather finally arrives

We’ve been meaning to visit here for a while and finally got the chance today. It was amazing! I had the Shawrama and my husband had the chicken breast. The food was plentiful and the quality absolutely stunning. We will be returning very soon !!! Very friendly waitress and the service was excellent. Well done to you all - this is a fabulous place to eat or just drink tea and eat baklava!!

Everything here made with love Thank you 🤍

WOW WOW WOW!! I’ve just ordered from here for the first time!! It was absolutely delicious!! So much so that I called them straight away to tell them. It was perfect!! Thanks so much!! I will be ordering again!! Faith Valentine x

There were no completely vegan restaurants so we went here. My partner is veggie, I’m vegan and we had a platter of 6 dishes - beetroot hummus (delicious), baba ghanoush (fab), falafel (fresh and hot), vine leaves (tasty), Haloumi, and samosas (v spicy). We also had a pomegranate salad with vegan feta which was large and yummy. We drank homemade smoothies that weren’t typical flavours. We felt we’d eaten food made with love, it was absolutely delicious and fulfilling. I’d go here so regularly if we lived nearby. The owner/chef checked we’d enjoyed our food the other staff were very friendly. Do go here I don’t think you’d be disappointed.

Was lovely thank you, thought I'd try something new and wasn't disappointed. Very well seasoned, chicken well cooked, lots of flavour. The samosas were spicier than I thought they were going to be but still tasty.

Pleasant friendly venue serving an excellent selection of food including Syrian tea and coffee! With its reasonably comfortable seating this is a cafe which is now on my list of regular haunts.

Clean food that is super tasty! Loved every bite. Thank you!

Friendly service, but the food took a ridiculous amount of time to arrive, and was only so-so when it did. They need to decide whether online orders or cafe customers are more important.

Went for lunch .lovely decor..food is superb ,the tagine is very tasty and filling.

Absolutely delicious…..just had my favourite….smoked salmon & scrambled eggs….on sourdough dough……highly recommended😊

Had high hopes for trying something new but was extremely disappointed. The food itself was fine but the portion size was tiny. Very bad value for money. Sadly will not be ordering from here again.

Sorry to only give 4stars but due to the weather it was rather chilly in there.

Best dishes. And nice staff Lana☺️

It was a really lovely experience the owner was nice and talkative and the food was delicious and healthy :)

The first and second time we ordered the food was amazing. We love shawarma. However, producing quality dishes everyday is key, and this is not a dish to be proud of. Halfway through the meal, oil starts dripping down from the shawarma. Like a lot. Had to stop eating as I'm afraid of what that might do to my stomach. I hope this is a wake up call. Be consistent and not complacent.

We were here together with friends. Officially, I say here the tastiest shawarma and cuisine✨

Popped in for lunch with no prior knowledge of the place. Friendly server showed us to a table - great menu with lots of choice. The food was really tasty and clearly freshly made. Would definitely go back.

I booked a table in the window of this restaurant because my husband has poor eyesight and this was the only table bright enough for him,but when we arrived we were told there was no booking and people were sitting at this particular table. We...

Delightful ambience and delicious food.

Possibly the best halloumi wrap I've ever had and the strawberry smoothie was to die for, mum said her salad was amazing aswell and loved the fresh herbal tea, the lady the served us was super sweet and I can't wait to go back!

Very special Syrian tea, and incredible atmosphere. I would have loved to have tried the Crepe cake, but was too full to eat. Highly recommend trying the coffee and cakes!

Another fantastic visit! Staff friendly and attentive, their service was awesome! Looking forward to coming back soon!

Staff great. Nice interior. Food needs a bit of work. Wasn't expecting white sliced bread on my breakfast and poached eggs from a mould! Overall nice experience and will be back but will check what I getting!

friendly and attentive coffee shop/restaurant. coffee brilliant, so we decided to have lunch. it was glorious: both vegetarian flan and meat tangine. perfect portions too. alas we are diabetics so couldn't take advantage of their cakes and afters, but they looked inviting. had to have second coffee instead. vg!!!

Really nice coffee, great atmosphere and lovely owners. Tried their cheese and broccoli flan delicious

Great food excellent service Thank you

Food was delicious, chef explained about the different foods too, staff friendly, will definitely be back.

Delicious and Different. Syrian cuisine comes to Bexhill, offering something new, refreshing and exciting. Just what Western Road needs. Thank you Khaled and team.

I love the food here. Super tasty and fresh. I am a huge fan of the beetroot hummus you must try it !! The best customer care, I’ve never had a bad experience and had lots of food from here. My son orders too when...

Wonderful, healthy food and so tasty. Highly recommend.

Nice people, good service. Quality of the food is great, only grumble is price v size. The platter was nice but not really a platter, not much to it for the price. The shawarma too was nice, but was small and missing ingredients in the filling (compared to what I know - and I've eaten very many). Overall nice experience, the menu and dishes just need some work. Will go again.

What a great find in Bexhill, tasty food, lovely staff and owner, well worth a visit when in the area. Stevie and sister Lesley

I'm a local resident and recently tried Cinnamon Cafe for the first time after walking past it dozens of times and not appreciating what lay within the unassuming exterior - an amazing selection of some of the most delicious Lebanese food I've ever tasted !...

We've just come back from a lovely tea party, celebrating a friend's birthday in Cinnamon Café. Khaled and Sophy served us with a selection of delicious sandwiches, scones with jam and cream, and a carrot birthday cake. Besides pots of tea, we were served with...

Holy wow! Wonderful vibes and decor, clean & cosy Friendly staff :) tasty coffee MeNu for everyone ! Sweet savory all of it We’re vegan and they had SO MUCH his dish.. the bean dish was so tasty I wanted it all.. I also had pancakes!! And the best hummus I have to try the hummus wherever I go. I rate this a strong 10/10 With flatbreads mmmmm Can’t wait to come back, a real gem discovered I feel worth the trip for sure! We’ve come about an hour and worth every second :)

I meet with a group in the week for drink and light snack. Lovely place, friendly staff and tasty snacks.

Some lovely choices of teas and coffees, including Syrian coffee which was delicious. Some typical Syrian sweets to go with it is perfect and a Gluten free cake was also delicious.

The food is a real refreshing change, it is very tasty and well executed fare, if you like to try something new give it ago. It is a small but very friendly cafe, my wife and I visit 2-4 times a month. If it’s a coffee your just after that’s just as good along with the cakes.

Food and staff are nice, to be fair, but prices are too high.

I work in Bexhill once or twice a week and always have my lunch here. The menu is full of delicious Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes, but British food is available too. I've always had excellent food which is always beautifully presented and I have...

I ordered a take away platter from here and it was absolutely amazing so I decided to pop in for some lunch and a coffee which did not disappoint. The owner clearly takes time out to make sure his customers are catered for and you...

Only found this beautiful cafe recently and the food is amazing, the staff are lovely and I can't wait to go back as soon as possible!

Having sung the cafe’s praises, I took friends along. Very disappointing. Only 2 tables but had to wait 45 minutes for or our food. One had cheese on toast. It was a mound of cheese on 2 slices of thin over processed white bread, melted...

Great coffee... After a visit to Cinnamon Coffee. I stopped drinking from Costa. Owner is great. The service is delivered with care and the prices are more then reasonable

Comfortable, stylish interior with colourful seating and softly playing music. Freshly prepared salads and dips on platters with flat breads, beautifully prepared and served. Wonderful to have this cafe in Bexhill-on-sea. I would rather support independent cafes than chain cafes. You will find everything you...

Great food and excellent service. Sat outside in the sun which was lovely and had the meze and meat balls in cherries, so unusual but super tasty. Very friendly, and well behaved dogs are welcome inside.

Such a lovely cafe with really accommodating staff!! My sister and I were in a rush today so they (very!) quickly got our order out so we could get back to work on time. It was SO yummy! Would highly recommend xx

Googled 'best cappuccino in Bexhill' and this cafe came top - selected by locals. So disappointed. Ordered large cappuccino and got coffee soup. Milky liquid to the brim. Tasted OK but weak. But I wanted a cappuccino not a very milky latte. Food served to...

A couple of days ago a group of six of us enjoyed a splendid traditional English afternoon tea with a Mediterranean twist or two at Cinnamon Café. Everything was delicious! The sandwiches included hummus with avocado, brie with olives, egg mayonnaise and king prawn. At...

Lovely little cafe with authentic flavours from the middle east. Great quality fresh produce at a fair price and friendly attentive staff. My wife and I popped in for lunch as we've been meaning to try it for ages and were not disappointed. We had...

The Cinnamon Café really does live up to its vote as the best café in Bexhill, and the second best in the whole of Rother. We are regular customers, as many others seem to be two. The cuisine can best be described as Anglo-Syrian. There...
