Harri-Nats in Lewes - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This cafe is bright, airy and a lovely place to sit. I met friends here today and we enjoyed our visit. However I did think the prices were a little steep. Tea was £2.40. We were served tea for two but charged £4.80. Surely a pot of tea for two should be slightly cheaper than two individual pots of tea. I ordered a bacon sandwich foolishly expecting the bread to be toasted. Unfortunately this was not the case. Two thick slices of untoasted bread with salty bacon in the middle. For £6.60! Vastly overpriced. My friends ordered jacket potatoes which they enjoyed and another ordered cheese on toast with egg on top for £6.60! Delicious looking cakes on the counter which in hindsight I should have gone for instead.

This place seems to of improved a lot Seems nice and fresh Good coffee and tea cake Havnt tried lunch there for a long time but shall

Very nice service, good food, both for dinner and breakfast.

Nice food and very pleasant staff.

£13.50 for a full English breakfast and a coffee. Service was good and food was tasty. Bit stingy on the full English (see photo) with just one sausage and one rasher of bacon the plate looks bare. Also bit weird serving the coffee in a glass without handle so that it’s too hot to pick up. Had to use a tissue to grip the glass. Nice atmosphere inside and good location on the high street.

We found wheelchair access very easy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was very good and plenty of it. We would thoroughly recommend the restaurant.

Better now it's all back together ❤

I only popped in for a coffee and some cake to take away, but it was all very nice, and I will return on my next trip to Seaford. The staff were lovely. The gentleman who served me in particular went out of his way to help me, even walking me out to get the door for me. It has a lovely atmosphere and was quite busy, late afternoon on a Friday. It's dog friendly too, which is what made me go in. I had a lovely slice of cake! I'm looking forward to trying their others. The mocha was nice, if a little bitter. Unfortunately, I did buy a packet of biscuits and only realised afterwards they contained unsustainable palm oil. Other than that, it was a very nice experience overall.

ABSOLUTE JOKE OF A BREAKFAST PLACE!! just read all the other reviews and it all makes sense! I ordered a full English breakfast on 9.01.24... I was shocked of what was brought to me. A full English breakfast?? OK... One sausage, one bacon, carbonised mushrooms.. Couldn't eat it. watered down scrambled eggs which was microwaved... Transparent and tasteless... Massive baked beans... 2 halves tomatoes... I figured within seconds what this restaurant is doing... For £10.25!!! They realise that bacon and sausages are the most expensive items... So they give you as little as possible... And Since mushrooms, tomatoes are cheaper items.. You get loads!! To compensate the ridiculous presentation. The plate was small in size... Honestly... I put the burnt mushrooms and awful flob of eggs onto another plate. In the past, I have eaten full English breakfast in so many places.. Never ever have I been served one bacon and one sausage when ordered a full breakfast... One would assume that for £10.25 the owner would respect your intelligence and common sense... Specially when they have a smaller English breakfast as an option... What is the smaller version like??? The full English was £10.25. I went to the counter... The lady is NOT friendly..i asked her how they do their eggs.. She said they add milk... I knew immediately that this was a big lie.. Also... Thank God I'm not lactose intolerant... Who expect milk in a English breakfast? This restaurant is charging a lot but making sure they spend as little as possible.. So I know looking at the egg that water was added to bulk up the scrambled egg. I was so ticked off and upset that I left half of it on the table and walked off. They do NOT improve anything that's unsatisfactory from reviews... I read reviews in 2021 which highlighted the same I experienced in 2024. DO NOT... I REPEAT... DO NOT GO THERE... QUALITY and value are NOT THEIR PRIORITY.

Great coffee and cakes and sandwiches.

Good homemade cakes, quality coffees. Thoroughly enjoyed it

Outstanding experience. Heres why: - ordered coffees, toastie and baked potatoes - coffee size is huge and well made - toastie was hot, tasty with side of crisps and salad - baked potato was loaded with beans and cheese with side of salad. He returned us half the money charged for baked potatoes as the size was smaller - we would have never known that baked potato was supposed to be a large size potato. What ethics ! The ordering at the counter and table service was fantastic.

The food remains delicious as usual, but what has happened to the staff. No smiles or conversation, positively surly when taking an order and definately no pleasantries. Such a shame as it used to be a very welcoming place.

Lovely staff and home made food.

My friend and I decided to stop here following a morning walking. The service was excellent - very friendly, but professional, and our food was freshly prepared and delicious. We had sandwiches - a BLT (best one I’ve ever had) and tuna with mayo and cucumber - also excellent. They were served with crisps, salad and mayo for the BLT. The coffee was excellent too. So, great friendly service, really good food, and excellent coffee, all at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this cafe.

Very good Coffee and pleasant staff and always very welcoming

Lovelly place to eat in town , reasonal price , had the coronation chicken sandwich on fresh brown bread and you get a few bits of fresh fruit on the side and crisps , the apple cake was yum aswell , friendly place , very popular place to eat , very clean and afew tables to eat or drink outside if the weather is ok

Very good bacon sandwich, coffee was OK. Limited choice but it's a small place. Staff were very friendly.

I found the waitress rather rude.... I have a small dog , so I didn't enter the cafe, but tried to order from the doorway. She was rude and I waited 15mns for a coffee! That is not the way to treat a 63 year old lady, infant it is not the way to treat anyone...... Won't go back there again !

Lovely food, really good atmosphere, staff are excellent!! One of my favourite places in seaford. Would highly recommend 👌

We went for breakfast the other day, We both had a large full English, It had one slice bacon, one egg, one sausage a few mushrooms, one cooked tomato, lots of beans and one slice of toast. No hash browns? I’m not sure if they were included in the breakfast or not. Unfortunately I found two small hairs on my plate, but I didn’t say anything has the staff didn’t stop talking to each other the whole we were there! No one came over to ask how our was our food or if anything was okay. It was like a self service café apart from them servicing our breakfast to our table. Not good value and poor service, We won’t be going back , I have had better food and service in other cafes in Seaford.

Excellent though have not been in since their renovation and refresh, looks good now. Lots of things available and a good spot on the high street.

A very nice cafe for a snack. Lovely looking cakes and friendly staff. We'll go back for another relaxing break.

Came about this place looking for something to eat In Seaford, very good food and very good staff.,been there twice now and without a doubt my place to go when I return to East Sussex.

Lovely little coffee shop. Great food and drink. Super Cappuccino today.

I came back here and wasn't disappointed, good coffee and a lovely cake. I'll definitely be back again when next in Seaford

Very nice full English breakfast here followed by a clifftop walk over to see the seven sisters with sky larks and kestrels for company. What more could you want? Even the sun came out. 😊

When to this restaurant on a visit to Seaford recently great food and service.

Lovely food! Staff are excellent, kind and helpful. Toasted sandwiches are so tasty! Nice coffee. Lots of delicious cakes! Spoilt for choice! Perfect!

Great place to eat very clean nice staff always a smile on there face and always punctual on cleaning the tables .and very reasonable in price. We have late breakfast two times a week and they always remember you and talk to you .best place in town 5 star.thank you .

Great coffee good food and excellent service.

Had lunch here today with friends. First visit for me but not for my friends. I had a bacon sandwich. It was delicious. Lovely fresh bread and bacon was plentiful. My friends meals were equally tasty. A toastie and a cheese on toast with egg. They both mentioned how perfectly cooked everything was and indeed their meals looked very appetising when bought to the table. Pot of tea for 1.85 - great value. A great place to eat.

Do like places where you actually do feel welcome very friendly

Very very busy nice pleasant cafe, service can sometimes be a bit slow when busy.

Saturday 7th Aug went in for a coffee about 9.30 sat down and read my paper for 20 mins none of the staff paid any attention to me or another couple who came in in front of me. 7 young men came after me and also sat they got a bit feedup and went to the counter to order. The staff were totally not intrested in the customers. If this is and example of the service provided at Harri Nats I am suprised that theyn are still open. It was fairly busy but far from full

Very reasonable prices, good food, lovely coffee.

I visited Seaford to walk on the seafront with my partner and a friend visiting from Newcastle. We called into Harri Nats on the off chance that we could get a late lunch. The dining area was spotless and the team were very engaging, although about to 'clear down' they asked what we wanted to order to ensure that the kitchen was fully operational to meet our demands. I had a cheese ploughman's and have to say that as value for money, I couldn't have wished for more. There was a surprising amount of cheddar with the full works that usually go into a ploughman's - the value was superb and I would certainly choose the same again. The three of us left the restaurant feeling sated and extremely satisfied with what we had - needless to say, we will definitely call again. As an adhoc - the toilets were spotless and the covid safety measures in place were brilliant.

Friendly atmosphere with quick service. Coffee was exactly how we like it. Ordered toasted sandwiches which were nicely presented and came with crisps, side salad and coleslaw. Very tasty lunch and will definitely be visiting again. Toilets were immaculate too! ☕☕

Nice little place with all safety rules in place but well overpriced and the tea and coffee we ordered took about 20 minutes to arrive. However, the coffee was terrible. We completely felt ignored. Sorry, but I don't recommend this place.

Looked beautiful from the outside, but a huge let down on the inside. Lovely staff, okay coffees, but absolutely terrible vegetarian options. Very limited choice on the menu, and when asked for a veggie breakfast I was met with “We don’t do one”. I settled with an Eggs Benedict (hash browns instead of bacon) and I was extremely disappointed. Firstly the eggs were fried and not poached, the yolk was hard and overcooked whist some of the white was still undercooked and gelatinous. The Hollandaise tasted only of vinegar and was quite frankly disgusting. Will not be going back, I would reckon you don’t either.

It's closed. Notice says 'for redecoration'

This is definitely one of my favourite places to stop for a bite to eat near me. It’s easy to get to, has a nice atmosphere and menu, and they make a delicious milkshake. It’s great for drinks and it’s good for food. Bathrooms are easily accessible and are kept in good condition. Staff are nice and it’s a pleasure to go there. It is also very family friendly, the kids will enjoy it.

Lovely place with a wide range of great quality food and great service!

They don't serve anything fancy or exceptional, but the food is nice and our waitress was lovely (though not all of the staff were quite as welcoming). The hot chocolate was delicious (and came with a chocolate flake!) and we also really liked the lemon cake.

Swift pleasant service and good food.

Visited this awesome café between meetings in the area. The quality of the service and the food were impressive for this unassuming place. Obviously popular with the locals, the constant flow of customers was an obvious indicator as to how good this place really is. I sampled one of the best bacon sandwiches I had eaten in a long time with super fresh bread and wonderfully thick bacon. The care and passion the staff have is obvious and this is will become a regular stop-off when in the area.

Excellent food, excellent service, excellent staff

Very accommodating to my wife who is on a strict diet. Did my toast as toast and not as hot bread. Staff a good laugh and agreed to hide the huge selection of delicious looking cakes from my wife next time.

Popped in for lunch. Not wheelchair accessible, limited space between tables. A large selection of snacks/lunches. Had a toastie- cheese + onion which was £4.50. I thought a bit steep in price for 2 slices of cheap white bread and not much cheese. With a small side salad + 5 crisps. The staff were good, quick with the delivery.

Great cafe, friendly and good cakes.

Four of us popped in for lunch after a long mornings walk over Birling Gap, before we got our train back home. No table service but fine! two of us ordered sandwiches, one mac cheese one jacket pot, WELL! the filling in the cheese sandwiches was very sparse the wholemeal bread was tasty, but unfortunately that was the only taste, the mac cheese was shop bought! put into a serving dish (I saw the cook do this whilst waiting for the loo)! the jacket topping was plenty, full of beans and cheese, the jacket was overcooked through a microwave. Service good and fast, coffee okay, the cakes looked nice, nothing "Tasted" of anything, very bland indeed

Takeaway sandwich- pretty average, well overpriced. Wouldn't buy again. Staff lovely and fast service.

Service was excellent cake was lovely Would go again Ideal with children too They have various cakes and a menu for other food as well.

Best cafe in Seaford. 🍰 What tasty cakes!!! 😁 👍

Great value coffee and food, great service.

I’d recommend the very tasty goats cheese & sun dried tomato toasty on granary bread! Nice cosy cafe with seats inside & on street. Cool inside on a hot summers day. The friendly staff were helpful with he dietary requirements of others in my group.

Good coffee and cakes and a friendly service

You pay top dollar and full of old farts.

Great bacon sandwich and top coffee

Great coffee fresh cake's and more good food excellent service

Never been here before but was so good food choice s really scummy clean great service

Lovely place to eat and customer service can't rate coz u ran out of stars best place in Seaford to eat bar none

Asked for cheese on toast and got toasted sandwich with ham after a very long wait but that was down to a member of staff going home sick..so would give them another visit tbf...

Had a nice light lunch here. Tasty food, friendly staff and a warm welcome. Would go back. They do tea and cakes as well.

Popped in for a snack great staff warm welcome and service had coffee and cake would go back next time in seaford

Great place for lunch or cream tea.

Amazing place with good food and lovely staff xx a very pleasant experience .

Nice cafe. Good selection of cakes etc. Excellent service. Clean toilets. Plenty of seating.

Good service fair prices all round brill

Love the coffee and the food looks good..

We had such a lovely lunch, we were made to feel very welcome and the new owners seem lovely.. it was very clean and the food was very fresh and delicious we will be back very soon as we think its the best in Seaford.. Thank you so much.. we rarely make a review but just felt we had too!

Great hot chocolate, rather slow service

Brilliant little coffee shop in a great location.

This is a nice coffee shop & popular. You can get decent coffee & they serve the usual cafe meals. You can also get soup of the day which is very nice & nice cakes. The place is air conditioned making it nice in the summer months. We'll worth a visit.

Went there today as en route whilst on a walk. The place was very busy and I had to smile as on the menu board there was exactly what I had hoped to find in Seaford . . . A cream tea!!! The nice ladies who were serving explained that we may have to wait a while as they were very busy. But they were so nice and friendly plus the food looked so good that we decided to wait. In a short time we found a table and the cream tea arrived with extra hot water for top ups. The scones were lovely and were perfect with the fruity jam and the cream. The tea was piping hot and delicious. It was really good value and it really is a nice place to sit and relax. Very friendly atmosphere and brilliant service with a smile. Would highly recommend. Thanks Ladies.

I had some lovely coffee and cake here. The staff were friendly and helpful and the service was prompt despite the fact they were very busy that morning.

A smile from staff would help as they all seem morose. However the food and service make up for their demeanour.

Nice little coffee shop. Lovely cake if you can spare a stop!

A good and varied menu. Prices very good.

So friendly. Lovely menu. Great food.

Lovely café friendly service,great food,very clean,child friendly and you don't have to wait to long for the food. We come here very often.

Been to Harris mats loads of times service very good food always nice staff very helpful all the time I would recommend this cafe to anyone outside seating Close to all shops

Great coffee and service, however on our previous visit for breakfast we were both served eggs with solid yolks.

This cafe was a great find. We had our 2yr old Grandson with us which makes dinning a challenge. The cafe was busy but we found a seat in the window and was given a booster seat for the Grandson. There was a good selection on the menu and all at resonable prices. The cafe was clean, tidy and well laid out. The staff were excellent, attentive, helpful, welcoming which made our visit even more pleasurable. The food was made fresh, tasty and well presented. We will definately be returning when in the area.

I was very upset as being disabled.i over heard that the owner of the cafe does not like people with prams and wheelchairs.and has locked the side door so people with wheelchairs cannot go in.and not only that but does not like dogs.

Never disappointed and extensive menu. Very busy at lunchtime so better to go at 12 or 2 if possible

A busy cafe good service and value for money

I ordered a coffee and sanndwich.and was very angry when a young waitress balls up my menu.and did not know were the order came from so ad to wait a lot longer for it.but in the end me and a friend decided to leave without paying.and told them that we will not back here again very bad cafe

Good basic food. Friendly staff.

Coffee horrible and staff not interested as they wanted to close

We went in at about 3.45 chosen this place as it was the only one open.

The waiting time for the coffee was far too long

My head is still spinning from this trip. My friend and I visited on Friday. We ordered and sat down in the sunshine outside. Shortly after the teas arrived - all good. Then came the biggest of clouds!! A woman appeared ( I later asked if she was the owner - she said she was!) Anyway,she asked who had ordered the egg AND ham sandwich, I said me. She then told me that I could have either ham or egg as they are separate fillings. Which did I want? I said I'd like both please. You can either have ham or egg mayonaise but you can't have them together! Can't I just pay for the extra filling I said. NO! You can have either ham or egg!! I said Do you have ham and egg mayonaise in the kitchen? Yes, she said! Why can't I have an egg and ham sandwich then? You can have either ham or egg but not both! I said I'm a grown up and I'd like both! Not posible said she! Computer said No said I!! I honestly could not believe what I was hearing! My friend and I looked at each other, totally bewildered! We got our money back, went to a gorgeous cafe down the road and although totally exhausted by the exchange I thoroughly enjoyed my ham AND egg sandwich!!

Busy, tables a bit close to each other, service slow & a lot of noise from behind the counter.

Food was excellent! Enjoyed it a lot

Asked for a cheese sandwich on brown . What came was cheese doorstops ! Cheese was so thickly cut it made it impossible to eat! I mean who can eat a block of cheese at one sitting! Strange that the sandwich comes with a teeny bit of fruit.. a miniscal piece of kiwi & quarter of a strawberry & a few crisps? Odd combination. The staff didnt seem bothered and no engaging with the customers. Coffee was Luke warm. The place is overpriced and needs a good clean . Sticky table.

I stopped here for a coffee on a sunny day, after a long cliff walk, for old times sake as my parents once lived in Seaford.

Owner very rude! I plugged my laptop in as there were plugs in the cafe and I was rudely told that this is her premises and you have to ask and I’m rude because I didint. I don’t think that’s the way you speak to a customer even if the customer did something they were not supposed to- or maybe Sign would solve the problem as nowadays when plugs are available in cafes people just use it.
