We visited this caffe for a breakfast it was absolutely disgusting. Every thing was deep fried apart from the eggs and baked beans. We had a twenty minute wait which we were informed we didn’t mind as we thought they would be cooking from scratch never had I had such a saturated in fat/oil cooked breakfast. We had to leave most of the food as we deemed it unfit to eat. The staff were very friendly and working extremely hard we eventually found a table that had been cleared but it needed a good cleaning. Never again.

Every morning I come to Morrisons before I start work, I always like the rolls because they are filling and good priced, the hot chocolate is always tasty. Never been any issues, staff work hard, are reliable and friendly and always see to you. Keep up the good work.

We ordered our food on the self serve machine at the start of the cafe, we both chose a toasted cheese sandwich & chips to share a cake each a cappuccino & tea, there is one coffee machine that is really dirty, the tea pots were disgusting, my husband had to clear & wipe down the table, the cafe wasn’t busy so this could easily have been done by staff. Our sandwich was ok but the chips were disgusting, they were obviously cheap frozen ones that, it was a decent portion the bowl but I would rather less chips for the same price, we ate our sandwich but left the drinks & chips, the cakes were nice obviously from the bakery in store. This place needs to be closed & given a deep clean. Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures of the food,

Staff miserable to say the least, no trays, tables dirty, person preparing food waving her arms about saying at least half an hour so left without ordering anything.

Went to Morrison's Eastbourne for breakfast and on arrival it seemed ok. We placed our order via the touch screen and chose our table however after sitting and waiting a while it become apparent that the seating area hygiene standards were very low. The more I looked the dirtier it felt.There were food items on the floor and behind the seating area. I had no complaints with the food but was difficult to enjoy having seen the seating area.

Awful, sat down at a table & ordered on the app and waited an hour to be told that half the items we had ordered weren’t available, so they hadn’t even started cooking our food yet. By then the kids were starving hungry and fed up so we had to just get a refund and leave and just grab a sandwich in the shop. The restaurant was practically empty too so I’ve no idea how they can have been such a delay! Also it’s filthy, there is dirt everywhere - makes you wonder how filthy the kitchen is… only 2 high chair available for the whole cafe which is crazy in my opinion. They need to get more. Hot drinks machines weren’t working. Just an absolute shambles, won’t be coming back again.

Awful cafe. No trays upon arrival. Nearly every unused table was covered in left over food and plates. When we left 20 minutes later, tables still not cleared. 6 staff of which 3 were working and 3 standing around talking, despite the mess on tables.Food was abysmal. Selection really limited. Ham sandwich was totally processed meat with fat and no taste. Cakes were dry. Used to love Morrisons for a brunch or breakfast, but first visit in 3+ years and totally disappointed. The catering manager needs to look at all aspects of the cafe!!

We’ve been coming here every week for a couple of years and today was the worst ever for us. It has gone so far downhill. The tables today were neither being cleaned nor cleared although the vast majority were full of dirty crockery with only about 10% of them being clear of dirty dishes. Less than that actuality clear of crumbs too. Unfortunately, this isn’t uncommon. For a few weeks the crisps have been priced at 79p but charged at 99p even when we challenged this and went back after it was still happening. No price on them today and we were told several different price options by staff. There were no trays today as well as no cups, just the dirty ones that haven’t been checked. There’s often no milk and you wait an awful long time for them to come out with a jug. There’s often no knifes either. Today there were no teapots and 2 teabags were just dropped into our cup when we informed them there was no teapots. How appetising. We gave up on the hot food a few months ago it became a very unpleasant experience and now we’re giving up on the drink and cakes too. On the plus side, a very small effort has the potential to make a massive improvement.

This to me was more like a roadside van to fine the only drinks hot were tea or coffee were you spooned you own coffee into the cup, the tea was a teabag in a teapot and Mill was served in a jug, they had 2 perfectly usable serve yourself drink dispensers service decent hot drinks but both turned of. the meal may be may be cheap but as the saying goes you get what you pay for. I certainly won't be making a reappearance in the very near future.

We have been coming to Morrison’s restaurant for years however over the last couple of months it has taken a downward spiral with no evidence of improvement. Each time we come in the coffee machine is broken, tables are in lean and there is always a 50min wait even if they are quiet. Usually we can overcome these issues however today add that to a breakfast swimming in oil with half the items missing and you can see it’s well Down the road of disaster. They say short staff but there are at least 5 on shift that I can see. Come on Morrisons reignite that passion back to where you once were.

Poor standards. Cutlery not washed or dried properly. Most of the tables was not cleaned and had food crumbs on. I had to wipe it down myself with serviettes. Run out of the popular meals after 4 attempts at the till finally found a meal they had. Then told a 30 minute wait. Restaurant only had 15 people seated. Can’t see why the wait as most the is freezer to deep fat fryer or microwave. Once the food arrived it was only warm and not hot. I was not in a hurry so just drink the tea and left. I complained to a member of staff that said sorry and that was it. I could go on at there was more but just won’t return and will shop at Tesco in future. I’m only one shopper so Morrisons won’t miss me

We have called a couple of times to Morrisons cafe and if you get a cold sandwich it’s ok,but not impressed with anything(that we have had) that is cooked . My daughter and I ordered the eggs Benedict,but unfortunately the holindaise sauce had curdled,,so was inedible really. Another time we had a bacon sandwich, the bacon had only just touched the heat I think, it definitely wasn’t cooked.Shame really,I think they are short staffed,so everything has to be rushed.

Ordered fish and chips. Waited for more than 30 minutes and in the meantime had to ask for the table to be cleaned. Cafe was not busy at this time. When food arrived the fish was overcooked as were the chips. Peas were shrivelled and dry. It 2as quite obvious that after cooking, the meal had been put on the counter waiting to be served as all items were cold. I did complain to kitchen staff who apologised but I realised they did not have the authority to take it further. I was not the only person to complain of this as another couple were making a sim liar complaint over the quality of their breakfast. I have been a regular customer of Morrisons for several years and recall when the fish and chips were wonderful. I will not be eating at Morrison's again.

Fuimos esperando una comida a mitad de precio. Llegamos y descubrimos que el 90% de las máquinas estaban rotas o vacías, por lo que no teníamos otras bebidas para elegir, aparte de café o té. Las mesas estaban sucias y la mayoría de ellas no estaban libres de cenas de otras personas. Ambos pedimos pescado y patatas fritas ya que la mitad del menú no estaba disponible y solo quedaban dos pescados. Ambos no pudimos comer guisantes blandos cuando se acabaron. Recibimos la comida. El pescado estaba caliente y grasoso. Las patatas fritas estaban frías y rancias y los guisantes blandos estaban fríos. Ambas comidas eran así.

This is a busy restaurant and often seems to suffer from lack of staff, The result being food waits for a while to be served and is sometimes rather tepid.Good value for money, although on one visit I was startled to be served a pie composed of almost-solid, soggy pastry with a thin smear of gravy inside.That was a 'Special' and I don't think it was Morrisons' own brand which are excellent. Coffee is good when the machine is working.Music volume is at a reasonable level but conversation is constantly interrupted by earsplitting staff messages which would do justice to any mainline railway station, I can assure Morrisons none of their staff are hiding in the restaurant and few of them are deaf!

I’ve eaten in a fair few Morrison cafes and always had brilliant fish and chips. However Eastbourne is the exception! On 2 occasions on 2 separate visits the food has been poor. On this second visit I ordered fish and chips which took 40 minutes to arrive? The fish was from the tail end of the fish and was extremely thin and consequently dry and over cooked. I complained and was told they would cook another...fine. What I got back was an identical piece with the same chips and peas that had been on the first plate which by that time had gone cold. I requested a refund. At £5.50 you expect better. Eat at other Morrison’s. But not Eastbourne

The food is what you should expect to get at a Supermarket Cafe. It is certainly not delicious high class cuisine but standard supermarket fare quite well presented. As all these kinds of places, the tables, chairs and floor get dirty and littered with used stuff and the Cafe staff quite often fall behind with the cleaning up. The Gents Toilet is a disgrace. Not only did it need a proper deep clean which it has not had for months but it needs a total refurbishment to mend the holes left from redundant appliances, re-plaster over the swear words scratched into the walls and to bring the place into a decent condition. Is it because the Toilets are provided "free" that the Manager thinks they can be kept in such a disgraceful state and that must be acceptable ? Is this idea behind such obvious lack of care and apparent disdain for his customers ?

Decided to stop off on route for a meal. Arrived at 18:45 and the staff were clearing up. Ordered fish and chips for tea and went to sit down and wait.I watched as I saw my meal be placed under some hot lights and then sit there in full view of me for more than 5 minutes, whilst two lady members of staff kept shouting for the meal to be served. One of them could have picked my meal up and within less than a minute served it to me.There was a male member of the staff who was washing down tables at the bottom of the restaurant who eventuall looked up and came hurrying down the restaurant with cleaning spray and cloth in hand, to get my meal. He never washed his hands before picking up my meal and politely serving me the meal.I'm a specialist food safety expert and there was little chance of cross contamination of my meal, however. the risk of cross contamination with a chemical, even if the chemical is food grade safe, is clearly obvious.The staff were not busy as there were only three people in the restaurant and that included me, so you can understand my surprise when it took so long for my meal to arrive given that there were as many staff, as there was customers.Not good Morrison's!

We visited after shopping one evening on a rare visit to Morrisons. Lets face it. With a free drink with an adult meal and a free kids meal with any adult meal, which includes a drink, fruit and main for the kids, how can you go wrong? Yes, the quality is variable, the service can be very slow, but for £12 for 4 meals and drinks, with a sundae for the kids surely you can put up with this? Staff are always friendly too. Great value.

After doing some food shopping and feeling a little peckish my partner & I decided to pop into the cafe for something to eat. Ordered food which took an awful long time due to the till not working properly, the staff member serving on the till was rather miserable & frustrated in what she was doing with the till not working. I found us a seat to sit at, on doing so had to clear the table myself whilst staff walked past and watched this, yet not doing anything. The table had not been cleaned from the previous customers and never did get cleaned or offered to be cleaned all the time we were there. My partner arrived at the table with our milkshake drinks which were completely vile.Upon waiting half hour a member of staff come over to inform us there was no steak & ale pie but chicken & ham pie instead which my partner accepted. After another 5 minute wait our food arrived- I had a jacket potatoe which had clearly been cooked in a microwave at which I was shocked at the half an hour wait for this and was stone cold. The salad served with this was pathetic. My partners chips and peas were over cooked with his meal. Over all a terrible experience of which we were extremely disappointed with what we were served and will never return again. The management of this cafe should be damn right embarrassed of there service, staff members behaviour and quality of the food.

The sandwiches were dry and appeared to be stale.There were no plates on the counter and after I requested some they were put at the other end of the counter away from me! There were very few mugs at the tea counter although there were numerous cups that had been rejected as they were far from clean.In all not a good experience and we will think twice before we return.

I have visited this cafe a few times before. For the price I shouldn't complain but there are points they could address which would not cost them anything.The tables always seem uncleared and dirty. They have also crammed in too many rows of tables not allowing enough room for people to sit behind each other without their chairs squashing together. For a restaurant which doesn't ever seem to be that busy, they could probably afford to remove some of these. My steak pie had been microwaved so the pastry was very soft. The gravy was as thin as water and pretty tasteless. The bread and butter pudding was good, as was the custard. The coffee was also good. For £5 per person all in I felt it was good value to "fill a hole".The cutlery tray was empty and basic condiments such as tomato sauce were empty.

Very good & varying menu where you can sit in comfort and get a full meal. Pleasant atmosphere for a Supermarket Café. Always go there when I am shopping (saves cooking & washing up when I get home!!). For me, it is the best Supermarket Café in Eastbourne.

Travelling across the UK Morrisons has provided me with a convenient 'pop-in' grab and go style hot meal. The stores in the North are with out doubt the best in the group and to me it seems the further South you go the worse the experience gets. Morrisons Cafe Eastbourne needs to get some of its management team from the North along to give this cafe a good work over. The cafe is always short of something, decaf tea, staff, milk, clean tables, hot food.Its a great site, easy to park and access and although the view is over a car park and a busy road junction it has bags and bags of potential and could create a significant revenue stream for the store. Morrisons meats are good quality produce but they cook the sausages and bacon to a crisp in this place removing all the flavour and texture of the food.The staff all seem so inexperienced, they do try hard but they don't 'get it' you are in hospitality a service industry and its all about the detail!! It's a crying shame because in terms of potential this venue has it in spades miles better than its supermarket rivals but it seems to be treated like a very poor relation to the main stream business of grocery sales. Come on Management sort this one out

The average wait for simple snacks such as poached eggs on toast even on a quiet day is over half an hour. The food preparation is poor and it is obvious from many visits that the only reason it receives any customers is because of its position inside a good supermarket. From comments made quietly by staff there is clearly a total lack of any real management which is such a shame as this could be a credit to the store rather than a running joke.

I have used this cafe at numerous time when in the area with no problems.But this time I was sadly dissapointed.Firsly there were no plates for our sandwiches. When we got to the hot drinks there were no cups except loads of dirty cups on the counter that people had obviously declined to use.I asked for some cups and was told to use the paper cups which I hate.On getting to the hot water dispenser there was no milk and no serviettes! The poor girl on the till was racing about trying to top up the missing items.Most of the tables were covered with dirty crockery as the only self clear rack was full.To top it off my wife had some egg shell in her egg sandwich.

Food took ages to be served and was cold when given to us. Loads of tables full of dirty plates, cups etc. Floor needed a good sweep. The table we found looked clean but was sticky. Disappointed.

Had 2 cups of tea and a Latte after using the store for our regular weekly shop up. Very reasonable prices. Plenty of seating even as the cafe was extremely busy. Staff very friendly and helpful. This cafe must also be the cheapest in Eastbourne for a fry up, as the prices are unbelievable and the positions are huge. Will have to use more often as we are here every Friday. Nice undercover parking for the car to.

It is such a shame as this cafe could be a busy little gold mine but instead is mostly empty of customers but full of dirty tablesMy visit was interesting as the staff did not engage at all and just didn't seem to want to be there at allThere were three staff on duty but none seemed to want to interact with the customers, clear the tables which were full of dirty plates etc, or top up the condiments etc (until asked as there were little of some available)Where is the management of this cafe as this is what it is seriously lacking - as I looked beyond the till I could see that there was paper and rubbish strewn over the floor and the non busy staff were not even bothering to clear this up but just walked over it slovenly Come on Morrison's as this is dragging the rest of the store down as well as the Morrison's brand The food was reasonable but is slow in arriving seeing that they were nit that busyThis just needs a good manager to shake them up,bring up their standards and train the staff in good customer service - the basics really Such a shame but easily rectified if that is what the store manager wants

I visited here with my daughter just for coffee & cake & it's a bit of a lottery. The selection of cakes & sandwiches are hit & miss with not a wide selection on offer. I mean it is quite reasonably priced & it has a large seating area as well has having fairly friendly staff. But it doesn't strike you as having much oomph about it. By that I mean there's no atmosphere & it only serves as a functional cafe. If they created a better ambiance, had a wider selection of food & snacks & perhaps more staff it would be a nice cafe instead of its current it's ok & will serve a purpose cafe.

The quality of the food here is a bit of a lottery. Sometimes it has been good, and other times dire. Sometimes it is well cooked with reasonable portion sizes. Other times it has been cold, too greasy, or over cooked and dried out. The staff are either friendly and helpful or so run off their feet they don't have time for customers. to be safe stick with salad or sandwiches which are always good.

Decided to have lunch at Morrisons cafe, Eastbourne, for convenience today, whilst doing my shopping. Yuk. It's and last time. We expected cheap and cheerful but it was dreadful in every way. Firstly, in the queue the soft drinks weren't available, so opted for a pot of tea. All the mugs were dirty, as in used rather than washed badly. Ordered two roast dinners and was told there would be a half hour wait. This was fine as it was peak time and a rainy day. Tried to find a table but they all required clearing, so gathered up the last customer's left overs and cleared them before sitting down. Cleaned the table with my own hand gel and a serviette! Half way through our 30 minute wait we were told by an assistant that there was only one roast left. This was before 1pm. So opted for a big breakfast and a roast. The big breakfast is cheaper but we were offered no refund. Our meal eventually arrived and was ok for the price, once we had cleaned our own eating utensils. Decided to have apple crumble and custard for afters, so returned to the queue only to be told there would be a further 30 minute wait. Totally unacceptable. Never again.

Wanted a snack before doing our shopping in Morrisons but wished we hadn't bothered. They have a new system for ordering where they have the only menu available on the wall which you cannot see until you get to order, which in turn creates a bigger queue. I ordered poached egg on toast and was given a number, then joined the next queue for the till, which was at the end of the counter where all the self service drinks were. When we eventually got to the till, the young guy asked me if I had been told how long I would have to wait for my hot snack and when I said no, he said it would be about 2O minutes. I was shocked and when I queried It with one of the kitchen staff, she said it would actually be 30minutes! I told them very politely they were having a laugh and cancelled the order. I then rejoined the queue again to get a ready made BLT sandwich which was the smallest I had ever seen and absolutely tasteless. Whilst sitting there watching the hot orders being served, there were many customers grumbling about the time they were waiting for food as it was definitely 30minutes in most cases. We will never go there again. They need to get their act together as the cafe is not a good advert for this lovely supermarket.

You do have to wait a while for food to be cooked but it has always been nice. And staff are friendly it does sometimes get busy and tables need clearing but the staff always do their best seeing how there never seems to be many of them

Kids and husband met me for lunch, I get an hour. My order was taken at 12.58pm, as per my receipt, was told it was around 30 mins wait for hot food. Not ideal but wanted to have lunch with my family. At 1.40pm I went to the counter to ask, I could see my order, minus my dish, under the hot plate. Arrived at the table, no apologies. I ordered a burger, with cheese, for £4.60 I lifted the bun... The burger was hard and cold. I took it back to the counter to explain, it was inedible. The girl took it out my hand and huffed at me, asking if I wanted a fresh one...erm no I am now late back to work. She told me to sit down and she would bring me my refund. She did with no apology no eye contact no explanation even when I told her I had not had lunch and was now late. As she huffed away she clearly rolled her at eyes at me. I wanted to take it further as I really felt the customer service was lacking, didn't care about lunch. I also noticed I had not been refunded for my cheese, only 60p but it was the principal. I went to customer services, she was lovely, exactly how it should be done, correct amount of empathy and the word sorry. She refunded my 60p and said she would pass my comments on. It's only a cafe in a supermarket I don't expect to have amazing lunch but I do expect lunch to be served in a reasonable time frame with good customer service. Morrissons, it was a lunch time, half term not particularly busy... If you can't handle it don't serve hot good and get decent staff!

Was in the local area and just wanted a quick bite to eat and didn't want a carvery this time (There is a Toby very close by which is fairly good)The staff member on the till had a very good sense of humour and advised with very well with my eventual choice I Had the vegetarian Cajun Burger (See Photo) which at first glance looked rather well done, but that was just the Cajun style as was perfectly cooked inside (moist). Had the slightly spiced wedges with this which were a good portion and fine The meal at this time came with any hot or cold drink (up to a set price) at a cost of £5:00 for the whole dealYes this is typical Morrison's Cafe fayre and I see that some reviewers were stating about the non-cleared tables - in a self-clear Restuarant! A Staff member was clearing them when I was there but then it wasn't too busyFor a reasonably priced quick meal then you know what you are getting here for your money - freshly cooked but not fresh food entirely (frozen) - as expectedQuite a large Restuarant to eat in, so plenty of tables to choose fromEnjoy

Went to Morrison on Sunday and got to restaurant at 1 o'clock only to be told there would be the usual 30 minute wait for food. Myself and my Grandaughter could cope with this so decided to order the Roast Chicken lunch only to be told there was no roast chicken. Unbelievable at 1 pm on a Sunday. It wasn't all that busy either so I can see why. Had to suffer a McDonald's instead M,!!!

First you order your food and get given a number - then you shuffle round with a tray to collect drinks and finally you hit the till where attitude is not good - you get told its half an hour wait for your food - what you don't get told is they will be 45 minutes and it will be delivered cold and with a little pool of liquid from the mushrooms floating on your plate - as by this time we were in a hurry to get out of there we ate the food but not a place I would recommend to anyone I liked - they need to employ more staff for the busy lunchtime hours and learn to serve with a smile and cheerfulness - they must be on minimum wage and feel they don't have to make an effort - note to management - your reviews are bad - put a rocket up their backsides and turn it around

I went there two times and in both occasions something went wrong with my order. First time my partner's dish came with completely dry and out of date salad on the side. Second time ordered a English breakfast and got everything apart from the meat, definitely good for a vegetarian that I'm not. Service also takes too long. My general opinion is that their staff is not used to do that job and that is why they mess up so much.

Ordered two lattes, one cappuccino, one pot of tea, two tea cakes, two croissants. Served one latte, one cappuccino, one pot of tea (no milk), one tea cake, one croissant. When I asked about it, was told “we’re busy”. “You want milk with your tea?” As it turned out the order had gone through wrong so I hadn’t paid for the missing items. Told them not to bother as there was “a long wait for food”! Oh and no jam with either cake. Looking at previous reviews we won’t be using the toilets.

Owner lied about what pizza he does. He told us it was the same as the photos on just eat and what a silly lie that was. He then went on to take the payment first. As i turned up to the restaurant i collected the pizzas and opened the boxes and they looked nothing a like the pizzas we were told that we ordered. I then respectfully asked for a refund as not only did he make the wrong pizzas he lied. He then went on to be aggressive and rude by demanding theyre not different and if it is becasue “the basil isnt on top”. He is a rude old man who is a liar and im warning all of you to not order anything from there!!! Photos to follow: Do not order from here. Honestly the one star rating is generous

This pub/ restaurant has a superb atmosphere and a wonderful choice of foods, without the menu being daunting. They always manage to turn out 3 or 4 daily specials which, really are, special. Tonight my son went for the ribs and he was so happy that he did. Superb service too, well done Drew and team with a big shout out to Cara, the manager this evening.
