Journeys in Eastbourne

OUTSTANDING, the food was fabulous, staff were brilliant, atmosphere was great , do not hesitate to visit this great restaurant.

Both me and my partner love to go out for dinner, journeys is our new best place. We were late (due to taxi issues) however the staff were very accommodating. From the momment we stepped in we felt welcomed. The menu was explained in such great detail along with the wine choices, we had to go for the taster menu. This did not disappoint! The salmon, pickled cucumber and wasabi saurce was out of this world and the second course of scallops with and chorizo and chilli jam took it even further. We opted for the sommelier wine, with each course and it came through, everytime. The pairing was excellent. The red that was served before my main (of local lamb, Dauphinoise potatoes, apparagus, roasted onion and a saurce i cant even describe) i didn't think much of, however I was mistaken, it complemented the meal so well. This place is an absolute gem, the host and staff were amazing. Well done to what they all have achieved and good luck in the future. I look forward to the next sessional menu

Lovely lovely people and amazing food and wine. Lots of veg options for me. Will definitely come back!

I had a wonderful evening at Journeys. The service was so friendly and impeccable and food absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Journeys.

Everything was amazing. Food, drinks, service, welcome, experience. Loved every minute.

We had a beautiful lunch here on Friday. Marina is the most welcoming host! The food is next level, incredibly delicious.

We’d been wanting to try Journeys for a while - the experience was even better than we’d hoped. The food is excellent - delicious and beautifully presented. We loved every part of our three courses. The hake main course is amazing! The wine list is varied and reasonably priced. The best aspect of this fabulous restaurant though is the atmosphere and the friendly team. It was so cool to be able to have a lovely conversation with Marina about our choice of wine. We will definitely be back….many times!

Wow, what a hidden gem. The food here is outstanding. I have eat at many top restaurants and hotels around the world and the food here is just as good and well priced. I can’t wait to return so my taste buds can experience more from the menu. Great choice of drinks and fantastic friendly service.

Every meal I have had here has been exceptional. Incredible flavours, beautifully prepared and presented. A relaxed atmosphere with professional and friendly service.

Journeys is one of our go-to spots in Eastbourne. The service here is top-notch, and the dishes they create are absolutely delicious. We’re big fans of their small plates, perfect for sharing, and the main dishes never disappoint. Plus, the wine selection is top quality! Highly recommend giving them a try!

Just amazing. The food was perfect, and I mean that literally. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, as each dish arrived, the whole journey through food got better and better. It felt like being on holiday in Europe. I highly recommend the sweet potato Katsu and the Gravelax. The best thing though was the service. The lady was so inviting, attentive and welcoming. She explained each dish as it arrived and made the whole experience even better. It's now our favourite place to eat in Eastbourne.

Delicious food with attentive service, ready to answer any questions

There is no way to express how I feel about this establishment in a Google review. It is life changing. Amy is a genius and Marina is the best host you could imagine. The perfect experience. I beg you to go here. If you don’t like it, you don’t like food. It is the best restaurant in the UK.

Had a really fabulous birthday lunch at Journeys.... Great food service atmosphere ... it has everything. Is definitely on our list of regular places to eat.... thankyou Marina & Amy ❤️

We were visiting Eastbourne for a couple of days and were soooooo glad we found this restaurant. Both the food and service were first rate. They catered for dietary intolerance with no fuss, happy to adapt dishes. Please don't hesitate to visit.

Intimate setting with great food and wine served by really lovely hosts. Loved it

Second time visiting journeys and cannot fault. Service was wonderful & the food was just amazing! Really appreciated the advice about the wines on offer. Highly recommend the gnocchi in the blue cheese sauce and chorizo & the lamb with dauphinoise & rosemary jus. Will be back soon.

Always Brilliant Marina and Amy are excellent amazing food, fab choice of wines with excellent recommendations and amazing hospitality and service. Always a great experience every time we visit

Excellent and have booked a second visit. Cocktails amazing

Tasty meal. Excellent explanation of menu and wines.

I came here first when it opened, curious to see what it could offer as I often felt let down in Eastbourne. A year later and I have confidently come to the conclusion that this is great classic french cooking in a lovely setting. The food is exactly what it says on the menu. It is carefully prepared and delivered with heart and flavour. The service is impeccable and the wine selection is fantastic. Highly recommend and should be you first choice booking for food and service.

What a gem! Fabulous meal, great wine and welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend if you like good food cooked well. Thank you ladies for bringing some quality to Eastbourne.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. My wife booked the guest experience tasting menu with a paired wine flight and it was AMAZING! The atmosphere, food, service and wine were perfect. The couple that own and operate this place very obviously love what they do and that comes through in the food, the wine pairings and the level of attention and service you feel as a guest. Genuinely one of the best meals we've ever had, all of the food was 10/10 but the truffle inspired pasta dish is not to be missed as well as the lamb, absolutely awesome across the board and the wine selection complimented all the food perfectly. If you're visiting Eastbourne or a local this is absolutely a must MUST visit. We will be back!!!

I popped in seeking a good red wine and a relaxing atmosphere, I was not let down. The lady (owner?) was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable on what was on offer, recommending a outstanding pinot (which I don't normally like but was indeed a good recommendation).

Never had one bad experience at Journeys. Always a warm, friendly welcome from Marina. The food has always been cooked to perfection by Amy and explained to us as served. We are both Pescatarian and the fish and vegetarian options are always delicious. Great choices of Wine and fantastic Cocktails. We have only been in the evenings and the atmosphere is always intimate, cosy and relaxed. A really great small restaurant find in Eastbourne.

I enjoyed my first visit here this evening after a recommendation and I will be back! Amy & Miranda are the perfect hosts! A delicious selection from the 'Small Plates' and a great and varied selection of wines by the glass and bottle, both well-known favourites and more unusual choices to tempt you. The Taster Menu with Wine Flight looked amazing (next time!) and wonderful value for money. I was made to feel welcome from the moment I walked through the door! A great addition to Eastbourne's culinary scene! Thank you both and see you again soon!

Perfectly named as the whole experience takes you somewhere else. Sit with your back to the window and be transported by this amazing little restaurant. More of a holiday than a meal…

Lovely food as usual, just great flavours.

The front of house lady are warm welcome to us of 7 people booked the table and the menu are looked good. The chef cooked good meal make us happy. The small restaurant look atmosphere. Thank you for appreciate last night . Cheers

My girlfriend and I came to Eastbourne just to get away from London for an evening. We ate at Journeys and Marina and Amy made us feel like we were locals! The wine list has about 80, hand-selected bottles and you can tell that Marina knows her stuff! The food was divine - but of course it was given Amy’s Michelin star background! Would absolutely recommend - best dish was the Salmon brûlé!

Fantastic new addition to Eastbourne food offerings. Absolutely adorable wines and tasty meals. The owners are very friendly and know how to look after customers. All teething issues are now fully resolved.

Very jolly little restaurant with great food and service

We had the tasting menu and wine matching. The service was perfect, warm, welcoming, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The food was fresh and delicious and clearly prepared with thought and skill. The wine was superb! We enjoyed a wonderful and memorable experience.

What a great find. Great food great atmosphere and wonderful hostesses. Can't wait to return

Fabulous food ,wine and service

It was a lovely small restaurant. The lady was super warm and friendly. The scallop was beautiful and tender. The sauce for the scallop was a little bit too sweet for me and the grilled vegetables were a little bit overcooked and loaded with oil. Otherwise it was great experience.

Great staff!! The food was out of this world. Everyone needs to be coming here ✊✊

This restaurant is truly amazing. It serves top-notch food and fantastic wine, complemented by incredibly friendly and knowledgeable service. A tremendous asset to the Eastbourne dining scene.

What a lovely restaurant, from the warmest welcome in Eastbourne to the stunning food and wine. From small plates to sharing boards, each dish is beautifully presented and carefully thought out. Extensive wine list, cocktail menu, and knowledgeable guidance to help you choose. Thank you, Marina and Amy, for providing such an enjoyable evening.

It was a real joy to eat here. The emphasis is definitely on customer service and home cooked produce. A good small but very good menu, along side a varied wine list. We had a lovely leisurely lunch, the food was amazing definitely recommend Journeys as a place to enjoy simple well cooked food....we had the fish platter which was excellent. Good to addition to restaurants in Eastbourne 💕

We enjoyed a fantastic meal at the weekend. Lovely menu. Small dishes available but also more substantial main courses. All freshly prepared. Great little friendly restaurant.

An excellent evening in a wanderful restaurant. We loved all the food we ate especially the veggie Mediterranean board that was perfectly seasoned and delicious. So friendly and attentive and really pleased we decided to visit.

Amazing little spot that must be visited! Wine selection is great, there is something for everyone's taste, and food is sooo gooood. Fresh ingredients, made on spot, service and ambience is fabulous. Well done ladies! 👏 ❤️

It has become our place to go for lovely wine, food and the two owners are always having a high service. JOURNEYS is the place to go.

This wine bar is a little gem offering a wonderful and friendly welcome, great wines and simple delicious food. The fish tasting board included home cured salmon, garlicky prawns and mackerel rillettes. The cheese board was tailored to our tastes and was simply sublime. I will definitely be back to sample more wines and try the tasting menu. Journeys is just what Eastbourne needs and I will look forward to my next visit!

Wonderful food. Good ambiance. Just be aware that you will have to wait whilst dishes are prepared for you. Very personal service. A must.

Lovely atmosphere. Great champagne. Knowledgeable proprietor. Will definitely return.

Great evening at journeys. Fab food, wine and friends.

Amazing evening in a relaxing atmosphere. Marina and Amy displayed an impressive in depth knowledge of all their food and wine offerings. Especially impressed by a non alcoholic German sparkling wine! A friendly welcoming environment. We were very impressed by the menu and thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. Super ambiance, beautiful food and wine, caring and lovely people, nothing left wanting. Looking forward to our next visit.

My wife and I travelled from Brighton and took our friends to this restaurant for lunch. The food was delicious and the service was excellent, attentive and friendly. Would recommend this restaurant to all our friends and family.

Went for lunch on a very wet and windy Saturday. The bar was very warm and welcoming and the food and wine were excellent. Will definitely go back.

Didn't eat here, but great cocktails and super atmosphere. Lovely girls, and great service. Buzzing! Highly recommended.

This fantastic bistro wine bar has recently opened. Each dish, which can look simple on the menu, is exquisite. If you don’t want journey to Rathfinnay, Right Bells, Ramm inn, then this is the place for great food.

This is a must try place. Not been open for long but I think it’s a keeper. Food and wine exceptional and the service is outstanding. Not sure what else to say except thank you for a great night on 6 Jan.

The most friendly and welcoming intimate wine bar/coffee shop . Great and innovative food. Definitely the venue of relaxation and choice .

Lovely wine bar and food looked great too. The hosts were so passionate about the wine I can't wait to return.

Enjoyed a new years eve menu with my girlfriend and had a lovely time. Marina and Amy clearly put a lot of thought and effort into their food and wine choices and it definitely pays off. We enjoyed our our time and will be back again!

This newly opened bar in Eastbourne is a must do place for those who appreciate a fine wine with the most amazing menu on offer! Try the in-house made bread… it’s incredible & well worth a visit for that alone! The owners are so welcoming & knowledgeable in their field… we chose to go with the sommeliers recommendation of wines with our food choices & we were not disappointed! If we lived in the area we would frequent this bar quite a few times a week! Don’t walk past this place, pop in & sample the amazing wines, menu & service…you will be glad you did 😉

Girls night at New restaurant/ wine bar. Amazing small plates, perfect to share with wine and friends. All freshly made to order, must amazing racclette potatoes! Great wine selection, even alcohol free champagne which was lovely! The enthusiasm and passion for service by the owners was over flowing, will definitely be back. Hurray for new place in Eastbourne 😊

Amazing experience at Journeys. The food is homemade and delicious! Marina and Amy are very nice and give you a feeling that you are at home and you can be just comfortable. I highly recommend Journeys wether a nice glass of wine or for food!

Great ambiance and warm welcome from Marina. Stopped by for post shopping glass of wine - one of us doesn’t drink alcohol so we were really pleased they had a lovely sparkling white for us. Definitely make this our wine bar of choice.

Amazing wine! Incredibly knowledgeable owners and very welcoming, highly recommend. A must try.

Lovely wine bar in Eastbourne with a good selection of wines at a decent price. Atmosphere is perfect for meetings friends for a drink and catch up. The staff were lovely and friendly too. Definitely recommend!

What an awesome place, food/wine and service are amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good night out in Eastbourne. Can’t wait to go back 😻

The cheese board, wine, atmosphere, owners... It was all amazing! Would highly recommend an evening in Taylors or just a quick stop-by-wine on the way home from work.10/10

A great selection of wines at reasonable prices. Can highly recommend the camembert and pate! Russ and Emma are really friendly and such a great atmosphere. Will be back as often as we can!

Eastbourne just opened. Service slow but steady, hot food plenty of it , so much better than a Hot dog from next door.😉

Fab selection of wines and a friendly, relaxing atmosphere...a great evening thank you. We will be back

Great atmosphere, lovely wine❤️

Great ambiance, fab service, fun evening

Taylor’s is a lovely little wine bar in Eastbourne town. Superb location for meeting with friends. Run by the most lovely, down to earth couple who always make you feel welcome. I would highly recommend this great bar for a delicious red wine 🍷 Pinot Noir all the way!!

Taylor’s has quickly become my favorite place to relax and socialise in Eastbourne. It has a fantastic location just near the station and Little Chelsea. They have an informed and tasty selection of wines and sell bottled beers, cider, Aperol Spritz and coffee too. The cheese and meat platters have quality ingredients, are well portioned and come with lovely freshly baked baguettes. The clientele, and the staff especially, really make for a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I usually socialise in bars with friends but I would feel comfortable going for a glass of something here on my own too. They have now also started to do wine tasting, acoustic evenings and bottomless brunches so I will most definitely be back. If you are in Eastbourne, enjoy good wine, accompaniments and company then you must visit Taylor’s.

Fabulous place, cosy, great owner and front of house, will visit again soon, thank you

Went into Taylors for the first time looking forward to coffee and cake. The website blurb mentions cake and pastries. Was told by the guy at the counter who was more interested in laptop "we don't do cake I'm afraid" OK. Bye

Amazing place, lovely strong coffee, great relaxed atmosphere and fantastic tentative staff. Great location too.

Great new wine bar! Not long open, and been in about 5 times already. Good selection of wines, (tried most of the reds, all lovely). They sell bottled beer too. And the food is really nice, charcuterie boards, pate, hummus, etc. Really friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Definately recommend for any occasion 😊
