Massilia Bay in Wealden

It was very nice the food was so very good

We enjoyed a lovely meal at Massilia Bay last night. The owner was so friendly, and made us feel very welcome. The food was clearly cooked fresh, we had the pizza and fish and chips and couldn’t fault it. The owner kindly gave us a limoncello on the house too. We will absolutely be returning again.

Went for the first time tonight, excellent service food and atmosphere with great live jazz music, will definitely be going back for more 👌

Excellent food, amazing service, very reasonable prices, nearby free parking, great beach to enjoy! I would recommend strongly !

Absolutely fantastic experience. Lovely service and quick food.

A very disappointing experience. We are staying nearby and I booked a table for us online a week ago after reading their new spring menu on the website. We arrived to an empty restaurant (save a couple who were collecting a takeaway.) We were told to sit where we wanted so chose our table, took our coats off and settled down only to then be told that they only offered pizza. My husband is diabetic so bread and pizza dough is a big no no for us both. Absolutely no mention on their website that the spring menu is not available in the evening. Nothing on the booking confirmation I received either. We then had to spend half an hour in the car park trying to find another restaurant within a decent distance who could accommodate us.

What a gem of a find. The service was very friendly and accommodating to our large group including kids. The food was good, the live music in the background a real treat.

Just called in for lunch on a day trip. A really pleasant surprise! Although it was supposed to be a limited lunch menu it was certainly not limited in quality. Four of us ordered different dishes and each one was a real delight. You might think you are getting standard fayre, but great care was taken to boost the presentation, quality and originality of what was served. Fish and chips can be pretty standard, the usual pub version is a whale in greasy batter struggling to stay on you plate - but not this... delicately presented with minted peas and bespoke fries, it was a real joy. Only 4 stars for atmosphere, but surprisingly we were the only people in there.

Had lunch here today - excellent food, service, and very reasonable price. Minuted walk from the beach without the premium of seaside location

Was lovely food and service was amazing the two waitresses were extremely friendly and welcoming i would recommend to anyone who likes a lovely meal and atmosphere Iyla and Lily were amazing brilliant assets to the team

Very friendly - and dog welcoming! Cake and tea was lovely.

Lovely little eatery Staff were so helpful My tiramisu cake yummy And the lady kindly bought out water for my little dog Very reasonable cake and coffee for a fiver Will visit again

Superb local bistro restaurant with delightful menu. We stayed at a nearby campsite and found this place through online searching, which is not always reliable but turned up a real gem this time. The menu is an intriguing mix of Mediterranean food and English classics. The sea bass was perfectly cooked and the very friendly and helpful wait staff were happy to make adjustments to suit our fussy wishes. The porchetta was amazing and an unexpected treat on such a modest menu - and good value to boot.

A lovely Mother's Day lunch with the family at Massilia Bay, our first visit, and definitely not our last. Great food combined with really friendly service made it such an enjoyable occasion. Definitely to be repeated.

Banging know what I mean yerrr banging !! !!

Lovely roast dinner, friendly staff wait was a little bit long

Went to madsila bay for a Mother’s Day meal was great cocktails were really good. Service was brilliant both girls cheerful and happy Iyla and Lily made our mother day the best ever

Finally I had a Sunday off so went with my family for a second time, and once again thoroughly enjoyed everything about our meal. Roast Gammon was my choice for Sunday lunch,as you can see, a multitude of veggies hidden under that gammon and we ordered a portion of both cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets to share between us 4 adults. …it was delicious. The best roast dinner we’ve eaten out. The only thing my mum was disappointed about was that she didn’t have room for a dessert, but fear not, she got it to take home.😜 The staff and management were lovely. Couldn’t be more helpful, they didn’t rush us at all. We paid the bill and were chatting and happened to mention that I work for the NHS and was told “then you get a 10%discount”. What an added bonus. Tbh the prices are actually very reasonable. I would (and have) highly recommend Massilia Bay to others for a roast dinner. I haven’t tried other foods there yet but I do intend to try it at some point as have been told by others it’s well worth a go! I hope reading this review has persuaded you to give it a try …..I’m pretty sure you won’t be disappointed.

My second visit here. My partner & I went for Sunday lunch this time. We both went for roast Turkey which was succulent & lots of it. Served with mixed, veg, Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes. Plenty of gravy. It really was an excellent lunch. Very enjoyable. We will definitely be back.

Just can't fault this place,this is probably our 60th + visit. Sometimes a meal, sometimes just a few drinks. Ok,on occasion they've run out of my favourite beer,but what venue doesn't.. As for the food,be it tapas/Sunday roast or even fish night never been disappointed.They even introduced me to oysters,a 1st for me and not the last. I always ignore reviews, after all we all have different tastes and views.Give this place a go.

My husband and I visited last night for the second time along with my Sister and husband. The first time it was a very good experience but sadly not this time. First of all there was no T bone steak available, then my Sister got given the wrong starter so we had to carry on eating without her. My husband ordered a Cruzcampo beer but was told it had run out so they suggested Leffe. After having one pint of Leffe he ordered another but they only served up a half pint as they said there was no more and at 9.30pm they started clearing up the restaurant to leave and on a Saturday night it was sadly disappointing to be sitting there feeling like we had to leave. So we did! We wouldn’t bother coming again. On a good note we found the Castle pub which had live music so could continue our evening there.

Really love this place. It’s our second time visiting and we plan on coming again. This time for Valentine’s Day, the menu was set so we had to choose between things we wouldn’t normally order. Which was lovely trying new things, but this was a bit pricey compared to what we had planned. The atmosphere and hospitality is always amazing, willing to go the extra mile and very attentive.

We had a fantastic evening at this restaurant on Saturday night! When we arrived, there was a pianist playing the piano and I was quite apprehensive that the children might be too noisy for what seemed a small, cosy and intimate setting. However, I was blown away with how great the staff were with the children, which put me at ease! We ordered 3 Pepperoni Pizzas from the kids menu, which came with a scoop of Icecream after, that the kids got to go up and choose themselves. The pizza was large and freshly made, the kids loved them and they were all full up. I ordered the seafood linguine! It was so good, filled with lots of musself, clams, calamari and prawns! My only criticism is that I prefer the sauce a bit thicker but apart from that it was perfect and yummy. My friend ordered the tapas as there was a deal on ordering 3 items off the tapas menu. Not sure if the tapas is a regular item on the menu? But that was delicious, especially the chicken wings. Overall, it was a brilliant night, never even knew it was there as its a bit off the road. Will definitely going back there, the next time I'm in the area! Sorry about the picture, I took it from the video I made with the kids.

I booked a table of 8 for my wife’s 40th birthday and we had a fantastic evening. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming and gave us great service all evening. Everyone in our party really enjoyed their food and said they will definitely come back again. Thank you to all the staff for making my wife’s birthday meal such a lovely experience.

me and my partner came to Massillia Bay this evening,had a two course meal we thoroughly enjoyed every last bite! the service was wonderful we had a bubble young girl and very exciting woman serving us. we could have a laugh and a joke with them which helped us feel comfortable and enjoy every moment would highly recommend!

Massilia Bay is a lovely restaurant in Pevensey Bay. We went there for food and drinks. The food was delicious and cooked really well! The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely for a nice evening out or even for a coffee. I would highly recommend for a relaxing and comfortable experience. Adriana was wonderful and very welcoming and friendly. We would definitely recommend and would definitely be coming back! Thank you

Visited on a Friday and loved the Fish Friday menu. My friends are from the main menu. Everything was superb. Staff are lovely and the food is excellent value. Can thoroughly recommend.

Massilia Bay markets itself as Mediterranean (Italian/French) But we arrived on a Sunday late afternoon and had the most wonderful Sunday Roast. Slow cooked topside of beef with all the trimmings. I think this restaurant basically turns its hand to most dishes and absolutely smashes it. Our Venezuelan waitress was just wonderful. Ended with some home made Limoncello on the house after the meal. Will definitely come back when we return to Pevensey Bay.

This is such a lovely hidden gem! The decor created such a nice atmosphere inside, the food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were all so friendly. It was a shame however that two parents allowed their children to shout, scream, and run around the restaurant for the entirety of our meal which left us all with headaches. I understand this is a difficult situation for restaurant staff but I think a polite word could be had with parents of misbehaving children to enforce appropriate behaviour or to leave, as it was entirely unfair on other patrons.

We had an amazing meal last night….the night theme was tapas and was enjoyed by all of us. Thank u Massilia bay for another spoil. And thank u Julie for the fab service 🩷

Delicious Roast turkey with all the trimmings

We went twice to eat pizza and I would repeat it again and again.

Organised a lunch party for 35 people 2/3 courses, various dietary requirements. It was excellent. The food was delicious and delightful, as was the service. Lots of compliments from the attendees. We are very satisfied. Thank you.

We gathered for a family lunch 🥗 at Massilia Bay, excellent service, delicious food, thoroughly lovely afternoon 🙋🏻‍♀️💋

I loved the great atmosphere, where there are many memories of the south and England I congratulate Greg, who is talented and amazing, I say bravo.

Wonderful food, lovely staff, beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Great moment shared 🌺Excellent, very generous pizzas. Greg is exceptional ❤️The setting is wonderful 🌼🌼

Lunch with the pilates group. Fantastic food, amazing service, brilliant atmosphere.

I’ve just had Xmas dinner with my family at the Massillon Bay restaurant. Fantastic food, service, warmth and hospitality, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend! We’ll be back again - a lot!

This was a lovely place to celebrate my birthday with friends. The guys at the restaurant made us feel welcome. The food was amazing. The service was great. We shared my chocolate birthday cake .I would definitely recommend this restaurant . Will look forward to visiting it again soon. Merry Christmas to you guys . Thank you .

The restaurant was busy and so service was slower than normal but garlic bread was provided on the house. The food was lovely and very good value. The staff were friendly and the ambiance was Mediterranean. A lovely evening.

Sunday roast! Wow amazing!! Must visit, will be coming again! Good amount of meat and such a lovely variety. Cauliflower cheese is a must try!

Massilia bay is a little gemi n pevensey, a great diversified menu, attention to service. Plates are huge and so tasty, i am a regular customer and want to invite other people from eastbourne to try it they wont be disappointed.

Such friendly staff and a really delicious pizza. It was a pleasure to visit. Massila Bay is excellent value for money and offers a great menu choice. We love it.

Another excellent Fish night (£20 set menu). Yet again we will be back 😋

I had sat on my phone and the wrong review was submitted. What I really thought.. We had a fantastic meal. Really high quality. The wine was delicious. I think the best bit was the atmosphere and the staff. We will return 100% When we next visit. Thanks team and keep up the great work.

Once again, Masillia Bay did not disappoint ! Myself and two Girlfriends went for Sunday Lunch. It was amazing. I had the Porchetta, my favourite, one had Lamb and the other the Steak. Sooo tasty and not skimpy on the portions ! All the potatoes and veg and gravy were perfect. Such a lovely atmosphere, fab service and they genuinely make you feel right at home ! My two friends each had a crepe with sugar and lemon for dessert and they were delicious. Will be back with my Husband to this absolute gem again.

Had such a lovely evening, all staff were amazing couldn't do enough. Pizza was delicious 😋. Our taxi cancelled on us last minute but straight away we were offered a lift back! Thanks for a fab evening from 6 of us and 2 dogs. Just to top off really enjoyed the homemade tipple! ❤️

Only popped in for a drink. We had the dog with us but they had a dog friendly area for eating and drinking. Oue dog was offered his own bowl of clean water. The menu looks fantastic and tonight's special looks a great deal.

Went for dinner here with my son on a Sunday he had a homemade peperoni pizza that is cooked in a proper pizza oven and he loved it said best pizza he ever ate. I had the roast and it was divine roast beef was juicy and tender potato's crispy and soft inside the red cabbage omg you have to try and the gravy is so tasty best I've had the staff was very friendly and checked everything was OK will definitely be back soon about time eastbourne had a place that sells a tasty roast dinner

Lovely food and lovely atmosphere, would recommend this to anyone.

The place is a rare treasure of absolutely beautiful food. If you are looking for an amazing roast, you will not be disappointed here 😋 first time trying, but absolutely won't be the last. Outstanding all round for the food, service and great value for money 👏

HI, THE FAIRLY RUDE DELIVERY MAN ASKED FOR AN ORDER NUMBER, WHICH I WAS UNABLE TO GIVE HIM AS I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT IT. I DID SHOW HIM MY PAYPAL PAYMENT AND YOUR ORDER CONFIRMATION ON MY PHONE. HE WAS NOT HAPPY AND WALKED AWAY. THE ORDER WAS NOT DELIV

Great atmosphere, good choice of beer and food. Also dog friendly.

First visit to Massilia. So pleased to see a vibrant, friendly restaurant after the original site was empty for years. The staff are excellent and if not sure, would find out for you. The food was outstanding and portion size is very generous. The Tia Maria coffee, made by Adriana, was a highlight. We will definitely return to Massilia and next time with the whole . Lovely, peaceful vibe on a Sunday afternoon.

The most amazing food that we have had in a long time. This restaurant exceeded all of our expectations. Definitely the best mussels I have ever had and the pizza was fantastic as well. The atmosphere inside was outstanding, a real feeling of being on the Mediterranean. The staff were friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend to anyone staying or living in Pevensey Bay. Thanks to all for a wonderful dining experience. We will definitely be returning in December for the Christmas Menu. We do live 40 miles away, however it will be worth the journey.

Had a really lovely meal here. Staff were great. Dog friendly. Pizza’s amazing!!!

What a lovely afternoon we all had at Massilia Bay celebrating a family birthday and anniversary, Greg and the Team all amazing nothing to much trouble, food just delicious highly recommend, the celebration cake you arranged for us also delicious, see you again soon and Thank you all 👏😘

Just a great place with great food and service

Great pizza and amazing hummus! Scenery and vibes unlike any restaurant we have been in and felt like we were on holiday. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

Pretty setting, lovely food and good service. Friday night seafood special was great!

Popped in for lunch yesterday was was very pleased we did , sevice was great and we sat outside in the sun and both had a salad which was so tasty and fresh

This is the best place to eat in Pevensey Bay, the food was delicious and the atmosphere relaxed.

Wow what a fantastic little spot. We stumbled across this restaurant after a visit to the beach with our 2 young children. To be honest we weren't expecting much, we appreciated it was a quiet day visiting some where that isn't overly touristy but we were astonished at the quality of the food! It was delicious. My 5 year old confidently stated it was "the Best Pizza she's ever had". The staff were so attentive and friendly. I can't thank them enough for a lovely, relaxing meal. We will 100% be back in the future.

Lovely atmosphere, staff were brilliant and very friendly and food was amazing I highly recommend this restaurant. Would 100% go again

Fantastic pizzas hand made Can see chef on wednesday buy one and get one free lovely meals and ice creams staff all very helpful and chatty . My daughter and i love this place

Thank you for the best experience. Great food and wine Staff helpful and knowledgeable Highly recommended

Had dinner at the Massilia Bay, a pizza and a shrimp and lobster bisque (with aioli and bread) and both were excellent. Just a 20 minutes walk from the campsite nearby.

I came over from London to visit family, and the flavours of all the dishes were great, loved the Chorizo flatbread and the Pork belly 😋

Fantastic food, kid and dog friendly and the service was exceptional. We had a fab lunch here and will be back. Thank you!

Gorgeous pizza and ice cream. Car park opposite and tiny walk to the beach. Staff attentive and friendly. Prices reasonable. Funky music. Thank you!

Fantastic food and such a hidden gem! I popped by with family for a Pina colada and the next day I returned with my husband for possibly the most delicious food I've had in such a long time. Wonderful meal & singing happy birthday to locals was a highlight to our visit ❤️

Had a really good lunch today. All food very tasty. Garlic mushrooms and humous very good The sea bass was delicious. The pizza very tasty Lovely coffee. Super restaurant. Felt like your on holiday. Very friendly and chilled. We will be back so much to try on menu.

Pizza average, to say the least. Pulled lamb, great reviews. It was fatty with tubes, left more than half the dinner, cold tinned tomatoes, which was strange. Took plate away without asking why? Staff not interested, place almost empty on a Saturday night in July. Not surprised.

Lovely meal, very tasty, great place for a Sunday roast. Brilliant staff, will definitely go again.

We stopped for sustenance mid bike ride and loved Massilia Bay. Opted for the specials - Beef Carpaccio as a starter followed by Red Mullet Two Ways (Pan-Fried on top of Tomato-y Potatoes, and Cerviche-style). We felt compelled to seek extra olive bread for mopping up the delicious juices.

Went last night with some friends, the food and cocktails were lovely and the staff were super friendly. Loved the way they've decorated the place to make you feel like you're dining outside 😍

Best meal out we've had for a long time. Great menu, and food was delicious. The atmosphere is so relaxing and vibrant, it has a real Mediterranean vibe.

A very lovely restaurant indeed! Because of one of my friend's recomendation, i tried it one time, and everything went perfect! I realy dont have anything negative to say, the ambiente was impeccable, the service was fast, it had very polite waiters and the menu's variety was preaty good either. I realy recomend going to it in the afternoon or after work, the sunset together with with the beach realy make the place.

massilia bay offers fantastic roast dinners, chicken, pork, turkey and lamb. All were fantastic. we went for father’s day and the atmosphere was amazing. lovely music in the background. amazing service! we will be back.

Recommended to us by friends and it did not disappoint. Great food - well worth visiting for anyone in the area (we drove 25 mins to get there). Friendly owners and welcoming staff. The fried squid, bouillabaisse and pizzas were delicious. Easy parking too.

Had a lovely meal here cooked fresh can’t fault will be back, staff were lovely an attentive. Well done hard to find a decent restaurant.

We were excited to try the roast dinner, which was a trial. Unfortunately, the experience wasn't great. We had prebooked our meal so running out of items for a prebooked meal is not a good enough excuse. The food was warm, was missing the honey roast vegetables (some replaced with boiled carrots), and Yorkshires were burnt/overdone. Pork belly was not crispy, more soggy fatty with a couple of mouthfuls of meat. Unfortunately, it is not a great impression for most of us for both the restaurant or the roast dinner trial. Waitresses were getting complaints with no managers/chefs coming over to discuss the feedback. Also, seeing a chef eating whilst cooking is quite off-putting and, I'm my opinion, not professional. It's a shame as they look to be good at the main food they do, but the bad first impression has now been made.

Came to Massilia Bay for a pizza night. It was 2 for 1 on Pizza’s, Pizza’s were exceptional, great quality, Aioli is to die for!! Staff are so friendly, really proactive and check in regularly to make sure you are ok! Greg the owner is so welcoming and Adriana is brilliant at her job and makes you feel so welcome! They can’t do enough for you! We will definitely be back!!

Another great evening at Massilia Bay. Food and wine excellent and at a reasonable price. The host Greg, was friendly and welcoming as were all the staff, especially Julie who couldn't do enough for us.

On holiday in Pevensey Bay and me and my family visited the Massilia Bay. We really enjoyed it there friendly staff and very tasty food. We would like to visit again

Love eating here, food is so good, fresh local fish available too, staff are friendly, fun, helpful, would totally recommend going here!

I’m VERY impressed with the quality of food! So fresh, decent portions, simply yummy! The staff was so welcoming and friendly. Dogs are alliwed in - this place ticks all the boxes for me!

Perfect restaurant , love the atmosphere , SUPER DOG FRIENDLY, they even offered my dog some food , super kind waitresses , food was on another level , Even Gordon would be shocked, GO ESPECIALLY ON WEDENSDAY YOU GET 2 FOR 1 DEAL ON PIZZA. But overall , super kind and helpful , dogfriendly , big portions.

I highly recommend MASSILIA BAY - very good food, prepared from fresh ingredients, well seasoned. The service is also worth mentioning - very nice people who approach customers with great cordiality and smiles. I encourage anyone visiting Pevensey Bay to take advantage of the Massilia Bay offer! Additionally, the place is friendly to owners with dogs.

Pizza was gorgeous ,soft dough and taste ‘s very good recommended

I have alot of things to say about this restaurant and it's all good don't worry, first of all the food was spectacular and kudos to Arianna. The service was very nice and would definitely come again

Great thank you to Ariana for our amazing service. The food was amazing. Definitely recommend!

Had a great evening, great service, friendly, lovely staff, fantastic atmosphere. catered for our large group extremely well.

Hidden gem in Pevensey Bay, great food lovely pizza

After a long walk on the beach and then towards Pevensey castle my wife and I ended up here, which is very close (stones throw from the beach) and had a great pizza and garlic bread for lunch. Lovely Mediterranean vibes. An absolute hidden gem. Talked to the lovely and helpful owner who said the dough was freshly made that day, which you could definitely taste. Will definitely be back and try some of their seafood/pasta and dessert options.

We were staying in the area and wanted something different to eat so we went to Massilia Bay. We had pizza for lunch one day and I had the Bouillabaisse the next day. Both amazing. I would recommend this restaurant.

Fantastic pizza and good selection of beers, staff very friendly, lovely decor

Wow, what a fabulous surprise. The photos on their website really don’t do this cozy eatery the full justice. Ambient, attentive, atmospheric, A class - and then there’s Adrianna. What an exceptionally professional, engaging and personable lady with amazing “juggling” skills. She’ll laugh when she sees this 🍾 The concise but varied menu gave us a difficult choice to make for dinner. Plumped for the snails (the correct cutlery as well) and, as it was 2-4-1 Pizza Wednesday, we had a pizza a piece, with our uneaten slices being taken home by two very full and satisfied customers. We’re defo coming back. Oh, and the complimentary Limoncello was a bonus. Petra and Steve

Visited last Friday with the Mrs and had a lovely evening. Decor is very warm and nostalgic of my trips to France. The food was also excellent, we had a mixture of starters and mains. The lamb dish was superb couldn't of done better myself. Being a chef I often come away dissatisfied but not here. We also enjoyed the cocktails. Overall a great evening and am sure this place will be the hotspot in pevensey during the summer.
