Flaming Grill in Eastbourne

The staff are hard working and efficient but the decor and building is getting very run down and seems neglected. Badly in need of refurbishment and renewal to meet a good decor standard. Have senior management taken their eye off the ball? Food is average...

Pleasent staff but very jaded tables , chairs and decor. In serious need of a major refit and decoration. Amazed that Greene King have let it get in that state.

popped in for the steak deal. Very impressed. Food great and service very impressive. also won a couple of quid out the fruit machine. winner

Visited 12th January. The food was fine. The atmosphere was fine. I didn't see any notices about parking & neither did any other members of our party. £100 parking fine. It appears some other customers have had the same experience. Just tried calling the pub....

Came here for a birthday dinner with friends on the 20/11/23 food was great however not worth the carpark fine I've literally just received through the post Obviously it was dark when I arrived had no idea parking charges where applicable if so then they...

Lisa N very bright and cheerful and been exceptionally helpful went above and beyond to make us feel welcome

Best steak ever. On a hot skillet- cooked as per my request. Staff cheery and happy, busy so book for special times. Fantastic value for money too. They swapped my peas for sweetcorn.

I live in Eastbourne & wanted somewhere to watch the Brighton Game. Its was dark so I admit didnt see the parking notices. I was told by a freindly staff lady to put in my reg no for the car but unfortunetly it was my...

Parking fine without warning! I travelled to Eastbourne from Northumberland to see my Son for lunch at the Rodmill. Parked in the car park and walked in. At no point did I see a sign and despite previous response from Management to someone else about...

i received a £100 parking fine for using the pub car park while in the pub!! no staff mentioned parking rules and i was appalled

Got a £100 fine !!!! Nobody at the bar asked me for my registration! I went up 3 times , we had food and drinks, so not happy. Nowhere to put my registration in ! Conned big time

I have always enjoyed a warm welcome and above and beyond service from the staff and management at this lovely pub.Any issues that have arisen I have always been able to discuss and resolve with the management. I do wish fellow patrons would do the...

came in tonight for a few drinks and Nicki got us seated within seconds even despite the mad rush! everyone else needs to take a leap out of nicki’s book!

Not normally one who leaves reviews but having just returned home I’ve received a fine for £100 for daring to park there and have dinner! We were at the hospital waiting for a relative to have an operation, so decided to go over the Rodmill...

Great service and great staff especially Nikki. Massive family order and all came out of same time and was lovely. Really Reasonable prices and everyone happy with there food and drinks and puddings

Family birthday meal, we had more people than we had booked for, lovely lady sorted us out with more seating arrangements. Lovely staff, lovely food.

Evening ruined by £100 fine from Britannia parking. Will not be going there in future. Arrived at 18.36 and left at 19.24. It’s outrageous.

Visited as a large group for my daughters birthday party. Food was delicious, served very quickly staff were great. All round lovely evening had by us all.

I run a charity that offers support to those with disabilities and we visit here once a month with a group of about 30 and we are always very well looked after by all of the staff and they are kind considerate and very helpful....

Just received a parking fine from Brittania Parking and paid the £60 as it’s just too much trouble to complain. However, I was advised by the staff to log in , which I did, so I probably made a error on that. I have a...

Julie, Lisa and Nikki were amazing they were friendly, polite and professional throughout my experience. I would happily come here again.

Went out with the family for a meal, great service especially from nikki, food was great thank you. Don't go out often. Again thank you

Average pub, noisy, not that clean and if staff do not process your car registration properly you get a £100 parking fine. Not worth the stress, plenty of other, nicer pubs in the area.

Absolutely fantastic service,food excellent and staff very pleasant and helpful. Nice atmosphere and clean pub. Julie and her staff go out thier way to help, Definitely be going on a regular basis.

Met some colleagues for a few drinks at the Rodmill. The pub is in a great location. Staff were super friendly and they offer a wide range of drinks. We sat outside and enjoyed beers in the sunshine. Julie (the General Manager) was fantastic in...

We booked a table only to turn up and be told there was no reservation under our name. They seated us in the bar, where the menus were coated in a thick, sticky substance. Left before ordering, don't go here.

Had an lovely meal with the family made even nicer with the service provided by Lisa D , she was great with the kids and she made the experience fun. Amazing service, food. Will be going again.

Amazing food and service is spot on Lisa n and Heidi are the best hostess we have encountered in Eastbourne and we eat out a lot with our 10 yr old who is shy and doesn’t speak to anybody but she opened up and was...

Very welcoming, happy and friendly staff. Reasonable freezer to fryer food, would benefit from a painter and decorator to freshen the building up but for the price it was a pleasant visit, thank you to all the staff .

I visited yesterday and enjoyed an excellent lunch.The portion size was fine and my burger was fresh and tasty.There is a variety of drinks on offer and I enjoyed very well priced ,and good quality, wine and a Talisker malt whisky.Gemma,Lisa and Max were great.The...

As much as we loved the Flaming Grill franchise and this olace, it is as big dissapointment. They used to have amazing chargrilled food, huge portions. Also NHS discount for everything. Not sure id ownership changed, but NHS discount is no very limited. Food is...

Was Somewhat disappointed. I was taken to the Rodmill for a birthday dinner. sadly when booking was not told thursday evenings are quiz nights. as soon as the meal arrived the speaker for the quiz started it was so loud, as we were right by...

The food and service was fantastic,Gemma couldn’t do enough for us and is a credit to the company always cheerful and on hand to make our visit a great one. Will definitely be coming back again

Nice pub and nice people. It's a shame the toilet was so disgusting. I have never seen one so bad before.

A busy Sunday evening, I had the 16oz ribeye cooked perfectly! Another person had the mixed grill which they loved and our sides were brilliant! Two chocolate Sundays were fantastic! Lisa D and Lauren were serving us, big thank you to them and the chefs!...

We haven't long lived in the area and decided to have lunch as we drove past. We had a tiny baby with us and there was lots of room for the pushchair. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious and the lady behind...

Harvey gave a fantastic service, thanks for a great evening. We will definitely be coming back. Professional and friendly service

Scam car park management by Britannia Parking. Went there for a meal as a customer on Saturday evening 8th April and have received a parking fine of £100 because 'did not register vehicle at the bar or reception'. What a terrible way to treat customers...

We love it here. It was our local, but even after moving a bit further away it is still our go to place for great food and excellent service. We have not had a bad experience here in the two years we came been visiting....

Great place for food,staff brilliant, Gemma always welcoming, a great host with a smile everything. Food varied and very reasonable plus good selection of beers.

TAKE NOTICE OF THE SIGNAGE IN AND AROUND THE CAR PARK AND THE BAR OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE HIT WITH A HUGE PARKING FINE!! Staff were very helpful and understanding. This was a nice venue for a drink to catch up with a friend.

Such amazing staff. They are so busy but so kind and friendly. You can see how much the staff enjoy their job. Always a fun and friendly night. The quiz is such fun 😊

The Rodmill is a very multicultural pub and everyone is welcome. I am very proud of the staff and managers in the six years I visited.

Perfect venue for all occasions, plus so handy for visitors to local hospital requiring a good varied range of freshly cooked food. (Including veggie menu)

My friends and I had dinner today (04/03/2023). The staff who dealt with us from the bar to the lady serving our food were so unpolite and we felt rushed. The bar isn’t that busy. I thought they were just like that but they are...

extremely busy night but very well handled. Served within minutes and was always apologising for the delay. Gemma brought the drinks to our table- wonderful service. Then had the pleasure of a very bubbly member of staff named Lisa. Stayed longer than expected ,joined in...

arrived at rodmill on 11-02 2023 for a birtday meal 4 people in party and not one of us saw the signs about parking, even when went o bar to order drinks and were served by 2 different members of staff they did not mention...

Not our local but well worth a visit. The friendly welcome and efficient team great. Fabulous range of Gin and the Ale as usual really well looked after. The food top notch.. Highly recommended!

I was concerned on reading Kathy’s review. I hope Lisa is ok. I am still waiting for a ‘welcome back’ message from the management after an unfortunate incident last year.In my experience of visiting for 6 years I would say that Julie and Gemma would...

I went for a couple of drinks on Friday 10th February. One of the girls behind the bar had a terrible accident and tripped over cutting herself. Her name is Lisa I know this because she served me and my friend and was so kind...

The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was great! Cannot fault the food, was brilliant as always even though the restraunt was busy. I had the signature millionaires burger and it was wonderful!!! The sharing platter was also delicious to start off with !!! The...

Food very nice waiter and waitress very good. 1 person behind the bar serving I already had my food I wanted another drink. 4 people waiting to buy food it would take me another 10 minutes to get a drink. My food would have gone...

Not only did we have to wait an hour for our food which wasn’t mentioned when ordering we got a parking ticket for parking in their car park which again no one told us we were meant to register our vehicle at the bar!

Decided to go to the Thursday night quiz as heard it’s very enjoyable & you would be right. Lisa was a very bubbly lively member of staff who really took interest in your order to make sure it was all correct. And Gemma as the...

Good Atmosphere. Great Food. Lovely welcoming Staff. We moved to Eastbourne 2 yrs ago & heard good reviews on the Rod mill. After a visit to the Hospital my Husband & I thought we would have a meal there. Gemma made us very welcome &...

Gemma was an absolute Jen! Warm welcome. Very hard working. She was great. Gemma would benefit from more bar staff. Thanks Gemma

Lisa and Gemma are really friendly and nothing is too much for them , my husband and I love to come here as we love the atmosphere. And that’s down to them they make it a fun experience.

Last night we came for our work do, the food was spot on and so was the service, all staff where very happy and attentive, Lisa wow what a super star she was taking care of us, Stacy running our food, Gemma for her warm...

Returned to The Rodmill at the request of the manager to give them another try. So glad we did, everything this time was spot on, couldn't fault a thing. We will be back

I went with a group of friends and was looking forward to the meal. Firstly the was a shortage of staff so the wait for service at the bar was long, not a good start. When the main course arrived my meal was warm and...

I went to the Rodmill as someone was having a leaving do. The menu on the website wasn't the easiest to find and I am not the only person in our party that thought that. However, I had the fun fair burger meal with a...

Was a family birthday dinner , service and food was fantastic, Gemma and Lisa brilliant service. Thanks

Went for lunch had a steak it was cooked perfect can’t complain about the price either! The waitresses were very helpful with my wife’s dietary requirements, the food came out on time didn’t have a long wait. Will definitely be bring my family here again.

Aware prices rice but this is rather extreme - Last month able to get 2 courses on the Seniors Menu for a total of £5-00. Now it's split Main course is £3-49 with a option of chocolate fudge cake for £5-49. So that is £8-98...

Really nice food and atmosphere. The staff were busy but having a good time. Shout out to Lisa D for some awesome cocktails.

Thanks to Lisa D and Gemma for your wonderful spirit and great service you have made my expirience here so wonderful as usual you both are the perfect team and hold the bar wonderfully!

I came on a Thursday night with my friend for a reunion and the bar was a bit short staffed. But Lisa D and Gemma were so kind and considerate. They were apologetic about the wait (we waited 5 minutes) and were very polite. This...

Both staff amazing lots of interaction with customers and very welcoming. food and drink was great had a lovely time

Great food and service. The staff was amazing especially Lisa she went above and beyond to make our day fantastic can not thank you enough

In on a Sunday when staff member didn’t turn up and as usual Lisa D took charge and delt with queues in a calm a professional manor , serving multiple customers at the same time so nobody was waiting any longer than necessary , well...

Came here for a business lunch and was warmly welcomed by 2 of the bubbliest bar staff, clearly very good at their jobs and enjoy it very much! All the locals appeared to love them and they will go above all levels to bend over...

Visited this place several times over last couple of months. Gemma who I assume is the manager is incredibly lewd, loud and frequently uses inappropriate language in a family friendly pub. The older blonde lady is alway blunt miserable and dismissive of customers, especially any...

Went to this Pub for lunch with my mother & father in law, my husband and a friend . We do not live in Eastbourne and we had visited this pub before for lunch and it was wonderful. But this time it was hell on...

Been really looked after by the lovely Lisa Dee..... This lady has added a sparkle to our evening. A great night at the Rodmill. The lovely lad Ben that brought our food was fab too 😍

Great staff, that's the only plus really. Food wasn't up to the standard of other Greene King pubs we've dined at. Breast of chicken was dry and rubbery, all four of them. Not all of the menu was available which was disappointing. Doubt very much...

One of the best Pub/Restaurants we’ve been too in Eastbourne by far, brilliant manager! Great staff and lovely food! Good location, and reasonably priced!

Absolutely amazing staff always super friendly. Good priced food. Always have such a lovely experience highly recommend

Hell. It also managed to be an excellent cure for the will to live. The only respite came when I went into the gents, gripped the sink and screamed at my own reflection until I lost consciousness. Great prices though.

Had a great night here last night. Very good value for money and great atmosphere and to top it all off Stereo Kings we’re playing which is always a plus. Would highly recommend.

Just popped in with a freind for quick bite to eat, sadly 1st choice was sold out but great staff gem and Lisa were so apologetic and suggested great alternative. Ended up staying all evening added bonus of a fab band which wasn’t expecting ....
