Visited to purchase food to take away. Bought excellent sourdough bread, beautiful butter and superb eccles cake as well as jars of marmalade. Didn't have time to sit in the cafe area but it looked very comfortable. Friendly staff.

Originally the village hotel we were served by the granddaughter of the original owner. She had great local knowledge and was attentive to her customers. Delightful window seat. Very good coffee, tea and doughnut. After a walk we returned for toasted sandwiches to take away for lunch. They care for their customers, young and old, local and visitors.

Have been coming here regularly for years. Just happened to read the rather mixed reviews below and felt I had to reply, particularly to the suggestions of poor service. I find the staff incredibly efficient and kind. They are making hugely better coffee than a chain, which takes time to prepare, and at the most two staff are on duty to deal with a queue of people in the morning rush. That's simply the economic reality for a small village craft bakery. Inevitably you won't get served as fast as in an urban Costa, but you'll get proper coffee and real organic bread. If you want fast food, go to McDonalds. If you want to be served by someone with time for every customer, come here.

I’ll leave you to make your own mind up on this one. £8.00 for a pot of tea for two with oat milk! Really, we will never return. (It was tasteless as well)

Judges is exactly what a village's local cafe and bakery should be like. Great selection of high quality food, delicious fresh bread choice, interesting selection of biscuits and cakes, and a couple of extra tables and seats outside on the pavement if you fancy al fresco coffee. Love it!

This is the community hub on the high street and has good coffee and selection of sweet treats. They also carry some local products and have fresh bread - but it goes fast if you aren't there in the morning. It's small inside for seating, but the table in the back overlooks a lovely garden.

I would like to make a formal complaint against a member of staff in this cafe today for disability discrimination. Due to my disability I am exempt from wearing a mask. This person started talking to me with a mask on when I came in… I explained that I am Deaf and only able to lipread but he gave me a massive bad attitude… so I started typing on my iPhone asking if they have eggs Aquafaba in stock. He ignored me and continued speaking with his mask on. I reminded him again and asked him to remove his mask. He plainly refused with an attitude and continued talking to me with mask on… I politely asked him to adapt for me and write down what he is saying because I don’t understand with his mask on but he was giving me a really bad attitude and at that point I couldn’t cope and left the cafe. It is so hurtful the way he treated me. This is discrimination and should be taken seriously.

Undeserving of local custom. Won't be going back for overpriced mediocre coffee. What a shame for what could be an asset to the village. Felt that customers were seen as a nuisance.

We stopped at Robertbridge on the way back from Battle. We saw a little coffee shop at the corner of the road so we stopped. The almond croissant is the best I’ve ever had, home made of course. The staff are friendly. There is a little garden with some sculptures showing. Love it.

Found this lovely little shop full of goodies by chance whilst visiting the area. Homemade, quality produce with a focus on healthy eating (but with some decadence for those of us who fall through the gaps!!) Sausage rolls with red onion, almond croissants, cookies, sandwiches and more - excellent coffee too. This is a high end shop in a beautiful village, however the experience was spoilt just a little by the lack of friendly staff - we went back, but for the produce, not the service

I visited last Saturday with my dad. Both the coffee and the sausage roll were delicious. I was really impressed with the customer service. I use sweeteners, they had run out. A lot of places would have shrugged their shoulders and done nothing. The young lady went to the local shop and got me some sweeteners. I was very impressed.

Some staff are rude and very unhelpful, when ordering multiple items it takes a good 10/15 minutes to get your order. Coffee on various occasions has been near to undrinkable, cold, weak, and ive even wondered if a shot of coffee was even in my Latte! I have bought baked goods that have been very under cooked which i had to return. The whole place has gone down hill it used to be spot on every time, now i dont want to give them my money to receive lower than average food and drink.

Pasties, sausage rolls, buns, etc everywhere, but no attempt to shield them from very active flies. We spotted sausage rolls in the protected hot cabinet, so asked for two of those - only for another assistant to pop more sausage rolls (sitting to one side, with flies) in, and the first assistant to take them out and place them on our plate....

Sólo estamos en el pueblo, así que no es gente, pero realmente disfrutamos de nuestra visita a esta panadería. Parado para pan en la mañana y estaba bastante lleno, así que nos sentimos un poco agitado por la cantidad de gente en el café, pero cuando volvimos para pasteles por la tarde era mucho más tranquilo y muy relajado y nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos. Delicioso pan y pasteles. Sin duda volveremos. Lo recomiendo.

Esta panadería fue recomendado por los lugareños, así que metimos en un día antes de la salida. Nos hicieron bocadillos frescos, pan completo de llenado sabroso y realmente sabroso granero. Se pusieron en cajas sandwich así que viajé bien y disfrutamos de algunos pasteles. Recomiendo los bocadillos que sólo podía haber sido mejor (en mi opinión) si había salmón ahumado con la mayonesa de huevo. Gran servicio, excelente comida. Sin duda volveremos: probablemente mañana!

At least it's not a Starbucks. It's the sort of proper little coffee shop you would hope to find in a pretty village. Stock does seem to be an issue - they should risk having some wastage short term so that customers expectations rise and trade builds up.

It seems a shame that the "Woeful" review has stayed at the top of this page for so long, so I'd like to counter it by saying that we have visited the bakery twice a week or more ever since it opened and have never failed to receive a friendly welcome from the staff. This is not just because we are local regulars; by now we have spent a long time sitting at the tables and watching the flow of customers, and in our experience they are always greeted politely and served promptly. It is inevitable that at busy times a queue builds up but we have seen very few examples of stress on either side of the counter. One of the marvels of this bakery is the wide range of unusual groceries in stock, supplementing the more standard offerings of other village shops. When I cater for guests with various allergies and intolerances I can count on finding something helpful here. According to my daughter, the gluten free bread is absolutely delicious; and I have been able to buy vegetarian and vegan food when needed.

Always seem to sell out early of things I like real sausage rolls and pasties always have loads of red onion marmalade yuck. Used to sell the best doughnuts then they changed. Sausage rolls and pasties are the best when you can get them. If people are eating in take out service can be very slow. Staff are polite and friendly. I think supply and demand could be a lot better.

Popped in for the first time today while out on my bike. The cafe is nicely situated and sitting outside you have a great view of the main street. Inside it is all nicely done but is small. The odd thing about this cafe is the service. Both ladies will take orders and make them up, so both handle food and money from the customers. Didn't spot any hand cleaning. Not sure handling cash and food go together, must be a hygiene issue there. Apart from that everything else was fine. The toast I had was made with fresh granary bread and the strawberry jam had real strawberries in. The coffee was good too.

Just left Judges after popping in for a snack (2pm). My sister and I were the only customers and the cupboards were very bare but I understand that can happen in places like this where everything is fresh. However, I cannot understand or abide staff that act as if you are personally putting them out. The girl behind the counter could not be less interested in helping us, answering our questions with one word responses and mumbling 'I don't know' when my sister asked for a recommendation. Perhaps she was shy but you have to get over that if you're going to work in hospitality - it just comes across as rudeness. The bread is wonderful but I can't imagine we'll bother going back.

Judges has been around for three years now and is a fantastic addition to the village. Great coffee (so they tell me as I do not drink it) and all kinds of teas. Plus wonderful cakes from Judges of Hastings. Savoury snacks and sandwiches too all incredible value to eat in or take away. It gets very busy sometimes but that is hardly surprising. Staff are so helpful too.

Were visiting Rye after spending a couple of days in Hastings. Found Globe Inn Marsh when searching for gluten free menus. Really varied menu and the food was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was really knowledgeable about gluten free options and was very friendly. The decor was really quirky and it was really relaxing inside. It is clearly a very popular restaurant, such a shame we live so far away!

Quite loudly - how rude. If she doesn’t want to live and work I t his country perhaps she could give the job to my son who lives locally and would like a job. Disgusting behaviour Costa!!!!!

Very disappointed with the food and the service. Worst moules marinieres I ever had with no cream garlic sauce either. We wanted to buy a bottle of wine and were told that it was not possible and that the wine had to be bought in a carafe! Never heard his before!? Service was really bad, they really need to train the staff. The bill was £150 for 2 really not worth it. Will not visit again sadly.
