La Grange in Eastbourne

What a lovely restaurant! Amazing value and delicious authentic home cooked food. Half price drinks and hearty dishes. We were so lucky to find this place! The waiter was very friendly and attentive and worked very hard to ensure everyone was happy. The Rillettes, tomato and cheese salad, and chicken chowder starter - all delicious. Beef stew, lamb meatballs and lamb stew with ginger all mouth watering and cooked perfectly. Cheese and biscuits dessert, waffles and peach tart also amazing. Half price bottle of wine to top it all off! Three courses for 3 people with a bottle of wine for £44. This is a real gem.

Me encantó este lugar. Buena comida, excelente relación calidad-precio, servicio amable y el vino a mitad de precio en octubre fue una buena ventaja. Esta es la cocina tradicional de una granja francesa. Puede que no sea delicado, pero es abundante, sabroso y abundante. Sabes que has comido bien cuando te vas. Los vinos complementaron la comida maravillosamente. El servicio fue amable y cordial, perfecto para el pequeño espacio.Regresaremos, a menudo. Los grandes restaurantes necesitan buena comida, pero no necesitan ser muy caros, necesitan reflejar VFM. En este caso, el valor es extremadamente alto. Dudo que te decepcione La Grange.

Al no haber estado allí antes, inicialmente nos sorprendió la decoración simple, vacas de plástico en la entrada y un cerdo en el baño.Sin embargo, el amable camarero de Curtous nos mostró un cubículo seguro de Covid que nos dio un elemento de intimidad.La comida era sana, sabrosa cocina fresca del país que era satisfactoria y sabrosa.La factura era sorprendentemente baja e incluso nos dieron un 50% de descuento en el vino, que no pude aceptar ya que sentí que valían la pena su paga completa.

Le Grange se ha adaptado a las restricciones de Covid y actualmente ofrece servicio de mesa en lugar de buffet. El restaurante es propiedad de las mismas personas que poseen Exquis y la comida es de un nivel igualmente alto, pero los precios son más bajos. Sus bebidas a mitad de precio en septiembre significan que obtienes una deliciosa comida de 3 platos con media botella de vino cada uno por aproximadamente 15 p. pags. ¡No puedes quejarte de eso!Los puntos destacados del menú son el paté (entrante), el confit de pastel de cabaña de pato y el cordero estofado en cerveza con pan de jengibre y chirivías, ambos absolutamente deliciosos. Las raciones son muy generosas, tanto que es difícil encontrar espacio para el postre, pero ¿quién podría dejar de probar tres increíbles quesos franceses?Sí, la ubicación está fuera del camino, ¡pero no entiendo cómo Le Grange no está lleno todas las noches! Realmente es uno de los mejores lugares en Eastbourne para salir a comer regularmente con familiares y amigos, comida relajada, amigable, increíble, buen vino y una excelente relación calidad-precio.

La cocina francesa kosher no es kosher en el término judaico, pero si alguien me dijera que este restaurante francés es kosher adecuado, esperaría una buena comida francesa. Y entendí exactamente que el cordero estofado en cerveza con chirivías era increíble, el ratón de limón estaba hecho con limón real, no con un poco de un paquete. . . cerveza efes helada a mitad de precio 1. 25 una botella también los lugares subidos de precio sobre los que he dejado una mala crítica, tomen nota. . este lugar tampoco es caro. . . y limpiará el piso con los restaurantes pretenciosos más caros como el de Port Isaac. . el stargazy. . mirando la maldita cuenta bancaria lol

We had the wonderful (French country style) cassoulet and beouf bourguignon. Very helpful service, good value and so tasty. We look forward to eating at the restaurant when lockdown eases.

La Grange me lo recomendaron como un restaurante "sin lujos, pero con buena comida y buena relación calidad-precio" y esto definitivamente resultó ser correcto. Mientras te encuentras sentado en cajas cubiertas, la comida de tres platos para menores de 10 años tiene un valor excepcional y la comida en sí es increíble. Tengo la intención de volver en un futuro próximo.

Had a good meal (especially at this price point). Unlimited starters (soup, smoked salmon, pate, olives and sundried tomatoes, fresh crusty bread, lovely mixed salad and a mozzarella/tomato salad). We had a lovely fish stew and beef bourguignon for main served with new potatoes. Unlimited ice cream (great mango sorbet) and unlimited cheese and biscuits to finish the meal. It is rustic. The buffet element is constantly refilled. House red wine was great.Definitely be back.Great for small groups, families or couples.

This amazing, family-run French bistrot is tucked away in tiny North Street, though it's well worth the hunt to find it...! Just look for the cow in the window...! Set out in rustic Gauloise ambiance - sack-cloth on wooden crates,and one, long bench - La Grange ('the Barn') is open Wednesday to Saturday evenings, serving three to four hors d'oeuvres, six or seven main courses, and some varied, delectable sweets + a cheese board. Boeuf Bourguinon, pork in Lentils, fish in white wine sauce, ratatouille, chicken Provencal- just some often the offerings available. This is a help-yourself buffet - as many times as you like - for the amazing price of £9.95 per person...! Drinks are varied and reasonably priced, so an evening here is filling, AND good value.Treat a friend, and/ or loved-one ... Vive La Grange...!

Muy buena relación calidad-precio y comida de calidad muy aceptable. Una amplia variedad de entrantes del buffet (salmón ahumado, mozzarella de tomate, aceitunas e incluso un muy buen vichyssoise que es sopa de puerros y papas), alrededor de 6 platos principales en el menú y autoservicio también encantador. La casa roja era potable una ganga similar. El helado es definitivamente casero, los tres sabores.Volveremos

Really fantastic food and good rustic atmosphere. But again I have to go back to the food - the quality is wonderful, not taking into account the fantastic price. If you're thinking of going - just go!

No te puedes quejar del valor de este restaurante. Buena comida, bebidas a mitad de precio (miércoles y jueves). Antes, cambio en cómo se sirve el plato principal ahora, pero no es un problema. ¡4 cursos para menores de diez años! ! ? ? ! ! Brillante.Todo lo que agregaré es que el camarero podría ser un poco más positivo en su actitud.

Came here as we couldn’t get in to the sister restaurant and we were so surprised at the standards. Food was amazing and very reasonably priced, Jason (think that’s his name) is an absolute delight and made us feel very welcome.

Que lugar tan fantástico. Valor increíble, comida realmente deliciosa y un ambiente muy íntimo.Los entrantes eran estilo buffet y esta noche incluía salmón ahumado, paté, aceitunas, ensalada, sopa de gazpacho y jamón deshuesado. Para nuestros platos principales fuimos por bourbingnon de carne (muy bueno con grandes cantidades de carne magra) y la tarta de pato confitado (absolutamente delicioso). La tabla de quesos era maravillosa y el helado para morirse! ! ¡Todo por menos de 10 por persona! Si no has estado, entonces realmente deberías probar este lugar. No puedo esperar para mi próxima visita. Bien hecho Le Grange. ¡Ustedes deberían estar llenos hasta el borde 24/7!

Great evening of food with great value for money and unique waitering. Sad it was as quiet on a Saturday night but met a fabulous couple to talk and share the evening with - Paul sorry if I talked over u

The whole idea of 'French Country Buffet' is (I think) unique, and who wouldn't love unlimited starters (incl. Rillettes!) and unlimited desserts (mango sorbet to die for). As for the main courses; absolutely divine and hearty to the point of bursting. And all for under £10 a head ... and that's without taking into account the half price drinks on Wed/Thurs.

Great Place and wonderful selection of food... unlimited starter's and unlimited ice cream and or cheese and biscuits and a main for £9.95 can't beat it... friendly staff tasty food will definitely be back

What a gem of a find. Tucked down a back street and not great looking from the outside but well worth it once inside. Such a cosy friendly place, food was delicious and at a bargain price, thoroughly recommend seeking it out. The main course is no longer buffet style due to too much food previously being wasted. Selection of h'or derves to start, about 6 different crock pot mains to choose from and then cheese and ice cream to finish. My daughter had 2 helpings of ice cream and we were all full up so although not buffet, still plenty of choice. We will definitely be going again at £9.95 a head.

We ate at Le Grange on a Thursday night when they were running a half price drinks deal. I could not believe that they actually make any money charging under £10 per head for a huge selection of buffet style starters and all you can eat crock pot mains. Most restaurants make money on drinks, but even at full price their delicious house wine is very affordable... at half price it’s an absolute steal.

Went here on a Friday night with my family and Loved it.

We went on a Thursday When I first walked in I was a bit concerned as it seemed a bit of a strange setting but I couldn’t have been more wrong. We had a lovely evening the food was good and tasty, the staff were friendly sorry can’t remember his name, great value and atmosphere.

So not a lot of parking but that was the only down side. Lovely central location and nicely presented decor to represent the style of French eating.

6 of us went there last night, as a pre theatre dinner. It was perfect yet again. I would not expect it to be otherwise and I am never disappointed. With an extensive range of starters and mains, and a selection of cheeses and ice cream for dessert, what is there not to like? To reply to someone’s review: With at least 10 mains to select from, how can this be repetitive (????) unless you eat too much of everything on each visit. We love it there, the food is tasty, healthy & plentiful and the service is always great. Always made to feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble. Thank you again for a great dinner out.

I haven’t been here in about a year and it has improved significantly. Everything I ate was delicious, there was plenty of options to choose from and the starters were fresh and plentiful. I had fish and white wine sauce for mains which included mussels and salmon and was very very nice. A smoked salmon and patê starter amongst a mezze of other fresh antipasti. A cheese selection and ice cream. And an attentive waiter. All for less than £10. There’s nothing to criticize. Definitely recommend.

A very unusual way of having dinner, all the food is like a hot buffet. Pays your money and takes your choice!! Having said that there was a choice of meat, fish or veg, good starter selection and ice cream for pud. You can have as much as you like. Price was reasonable. Not sure about returning very often as I am not sure how much the menu changes.

Treated my friend to a Birthday meal here before we went to Theatre to see a show.

What a find! La Grange serves authentic home cooked french food. We went on a weeknight, taking advantage of a special offer. The buffet style food was beautifully presented all covered on cold plates or in crock pots. The principal simple, help yourself to as much as you like: starter, main and dessert. Our waiter was wonderful, stopping to chat with us and very pleasant indeed. There was something for everyone and I think we all tried some new things too! Thank you for hosting us!

We were recommended to La Grange and were very pleased. The food is excellent and the ambience is interesting. Value for money is amazing. Choice of starters and main courses are varied and the house wine is very drinkable.

Not quite like most other restaurants. Friendly service (though mostly DIY of course), hearty rustic food (not veggie friendly!), decent wines. And great value.

Found this restaurant very quirky x loved the fact that we weren’t constantly pestered whilst we were eating yet there was always someone about to help . Food was delicious and plentiful . My only criticism is the lack of vegetables to go with your meal. We had potatoes and Very very tasty ratatouille with not very much vegetables in it. Visiting again soon and hope for some veggies .

Excellent value for money , super food choice and tasty . If your not worried about serving yourself then give it a try.

8 of us went this evening and had an excellent meal. Made very welcome, seating a little odd and would probably have been better with two tables of four, however we loved the food, there was plenty of choice for each course, service was excellent and we would heartily recommend La Grange, can’t wait to go again. PS mango ice cream was delicious.

This is a lovely place to eat and at an excellent price. After reading some of the negative reviews I think it’s a real shame how some people expect the world. I would urge those people to try and re-create this cuisine for the same money at home, let alone pay the necessary overheads of running a profitable business!

Very disappointed to get a phone message saying the restaurant was full less than 1 hour before our expected reservation time. I had left a message the previous evening but had no call back. Unhappy!!

You will not find a tastier wholesome meal in town for the price. Heaters under the seats. Great wines and half price drinks Wednesday and Thursday! Very cool and rustic. Just like when it’s sibling eatery opened nearby...it’s a must visit for foodies

We'll, 8 of us went to the Grange last night for my birthday. It has a lovely atmosphere, very French rustic. The food was excellent. Starters were plates of what I would call hors doerves. There was a fish soup which people loved, but I wasn't too keen on that. The food is in individual slow cookers, and were totally delicious, dessert was mango,mint did file, and vanilla ice cream and cheeses. Again totally delicious. I was only a little disappointed as my daughter went here a few months back and she said there was panacotta, and chocolate mousse, but how can you complain for £9.95. it was my birthday and the lady bought out some chocolate ice cream in a little bowl with a candle on. Top, a lovely gesture. I don't normally like chocolate ice cream, but this was lovely with bits of chocolate in it. The lady who served us was very friendly.if you love hearty wholesome food then this is the place to go. I'm going to recommend to all my friends and family. This is my new favourite restaurant in Eastbourne and I will be going here often. Well done La Grange. We all thoughly enjoyed your lovely restaurant

We visited on Oct 25 after hearing good things about Le Grange from our friends. What a gem of a place this is, tucked away on a side street that you would never usually walk down, the funky interior makes the best of the tiny space and really creates an atmosphere. We tried all of the crockpots, and our favourite was the beef in beer.

We had read the reviews and also heard good reports from friends, lovely atmosphere, but the whole place which was full only had one member of staff. We booked at 7.30pm, the starters had run out, when we asked for a top up it was acknowledged but due to the one member of staff being rushed off her feet and waiting on a full restaurant and apparently preparing the food, we gave up on that one, managed to have a bowl of fish soup which was lovely but we had to wait for soup spoons and actually go into the kitchen to ask for these, the main course choice was lovely but again, some of the dishes were empty. We asked for some crackers to go with the cheese to finish but advised there were none left, when asking for some bread, we were told it would be a 20 minute wait, there were wafers with the ice cream though! The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere but very disappointing dining experience, probably better to arrive at 5.30pm before the food runs out!

We visited this restaurant this evening. After having read the other reviews, we were really looking forward to our meal and had invited two of our close friends to join us. The starters were limited, but acceptable- in fact, we decided that the only food that was palatable was that which had not been cooked on the premises! The duck in the cassoulet was very dry, as was the chicken in the coq au vin and the beef in the boeuf bourguignon was so overcooked (it had the texture of cardboard!) that I was forced to discard it after attempting to chew it. Although it professes to provide authentic 'French' cuisine, the only dessert, apart from some tiny pieces of cheese, was a selection of ice creams.We found the seating extremely uncomfortable and there wasn't adequate provision for us to hang up our coats etc. It's certainly not a restaurant I would visit again, nor one that I would recommend. I cannot understand why it has received such glowing reviews- I can only imagine that other reviewers have judged it on the quantity of food available, rather than on its quality!

After being disappointed by our first dinner in Eastbourne in an italo/mediterranean restaurant (food with no taste and expenssive!), which was well noted on Tripadvisor, we went to La Grange out of curiosity, thinking it could not be worst than what we had the day before. And all you can eat for £9.95, we just wanted to give it a try.

Excellent service and the house red was delicious. Great choice for all courses. We loved the fact that you could have as much or as little as you wanted. Favourite dish of our night was the chicken and mushroom. Tres bien! We all tried most of the dishes and weren’t disappointed. As another reviewer has noted: some green beans would have topped the mains off but it didn’t stop us enjoying the fare on offer. If you have room then the cheese board is a must. We will certainly be returning.

We went for dinner, as a couple. We had been there before on several occasions with friends. A large table was decorated for a birthday party, which was nice. There was yet again a different dish: guinea fowl, which was delicious and a new dessert counter, so the menu vary frequently which is great. Always worth a visit! We enjoy it every time.

Ate there last night with my wife, didn’t really know what to expect but we were both pleasantly surprised. Food is amazing, buffet style, tipical french dishes, top quality and restaurant atmosphere is so nice. Staff very friendly , will definitely be going there again . So nice to have such a variety of restaurants

This is a new restaurant but what a little gem it is....all the hot food are in slower cookers about 8 of them ....which one helps yourselves to .....as much as you want the big plus the plates are all warm.....so you choose the amount you want and choose several dishes to try.....food fabulous.....decor is done out like a range sitting on grates covered with a heavy duty sacking which is padded very comfortable and different....plus a few large cows standing around for decoration.....the big surprise is the ladies toilet....but you have to go and visit to see for yourselves......truly a different experience and well worth a visit....

Fabulous experience. Warmest of welcomes, from highly attentive waitress. Range of food excellent and beautifully cooked. We had a native Frenchman in our party, and he was raving about the food, so high praise.

What an absolute gem of a place! Food is fantastic with a great selection of choices, friendly staff, great value, venue and atmosphere great. Recommend to everyone.

On Friday my friends and I visited La Grange. I heard about the buffet through friends and decided to try the French cuisine. C'est magnifique!

Great little restaurant with authentic, home cooked dishes and friendly and attentive service. Third time we have been and there are now more starters to choose from.

A brilliant idea, French buffet style cosy restaurant... a welcome change from all the Italian restaurants in EB! My fav was the chicken in mushroom sauce and garlic potatoes..it's great, you need to go.only thing I would say is it would have been nice to have some green beans as a vegetable as everything is in a sauce. There is ratatouille but again this is in a sauce...don't change and thing else as you've got it just right! I will be back....

Already was there twice. My husband dream to go there again. You don't have to wait for food. You can choose whatever you like and how much you like Atmosphere is good. Happy with service. Highly recommend

All the food was very tasty and a fantastic price at only £9.95 a person. We ate very well! Service was also excellent, attentive but not intrusive. House rose wine was lovely.

A superb restaurant tucked away in a little side street in Eastbourne, Excellent food & atmosphere,celebrated a birthday here, the waitress even put a candle In the ice cream, which was a lovely gesture, We will definitely be back. .

Such good quality of food and amazing value for money, especially the fish in white wine sauce and banoffee for me. I can't wait to go back!!!

A unique restaurant, love the décor, very rustic, food superb, buffet style, staff very pleasant and efficient. Fantastic value. Definitely one to re visit over and over.

What a great restaurant. £9.99 for three courses eat as much as you like, you really cant go wrong and it is all freshly cooked and made. Not the fastest service but very friendly and they want to provide everything you need. A bit dark and dingy in decor but I'd go back in a heartbeat for the food.

Was recommended this 24-cover, long, thin, barn-style buffet restaurant. It did not disappoint. Excellent value, 3 courses for £10. Eat as much as you like. Tasty too. House wine was a tad expensive for what we got though. It was very hot inside with no windows so we sat by the door to get a breeze. The ambience is casual, complete with cows and cobwebs for that barn feel. Would be better for a lunch so shame they don't open for lunch.

This is a wonderful restaurant for informal gatherings. We took a party of 12 last week and it was a huge success with everyone. Great food and a fun atmosphere - you will never have been anywhere quite like this before. Highly recommended!

What a find!...tucked away down North Street is this amazing quirky French resteraunt which is unique!...food amazing, fantastic value at just £10 per head! Almost don't want to tell others and keep this one all to ourselfs!

This place is great. The food is good french cuisine and excellent value for 3 courses. The hot buffet style means that you can try all the dishes and eat as much as you like (or can). Very friendly welcome and service is good, although it is mainly self-service. Quirky place, with a rustic feel but it is a very relaxed place to meet, eat and enjoy good food with friends or family.

Brilliant little restaurant offering French buffet style 3 courses for only £9.95p, and you can return to the buffet as often as you like. Reasonably priced wine and friendly French owner. Will return soon.

Our second visit to La Grange, this time with friends who hadn't tried it before. I'm pleased to say that our recommendations to them turned up trumps and it was as good as the last time we were there.

Having tried sister restaurant Exquis (which is superb), we visited La Grange and were delighted. It’s a great concept and all the diners looked very happy. The food is excellent, with the mains being kept hot in a line of slow cookers and the desserts kept cold in a fridge. Apart from the drinks, it’s all self-service and as much as you want. To be honest we probably over-ate a bit, as we were keen to try all the dishes. Of note, the cassoulet and fish were particularly good, as was the ratatouille, and the panna cotta dessert was probably my favourite. Will definitely revisit next time we’re in Eastbourne.

The food was very good as it is at Exquis.

Our first visit to this small newish restaurant and the first thing that strikes you is that is very rustic. Not in a bad way either. We were given a very warm welcome by the owner who seems to do everything. This is a self service restaurant where the arrangement is that you help yourself to starters, mains and desserts.

The two of us had the most delightful meal at a La Grange having been given the heads up as Exquis regulars.

No fuss, great atmosphere, plentiful fantastic food.
