NUR RESTAURANT & LOUNGE in Hastings

We were greeted warmly by our welcoming host who was clearly passionate about her cuisine... and art. We loved the cheerful decor and eclectic art collection on display. A three course dinner was much enjoyed as every plate was delicious. Highly recommended 👌🏻

First time to this lovely restaurant, decor interesting and beautiful. The food was wonderful our first taste of Armenian Cuisine. Made so welcome delightful service

What an excellent place. The food is authentic Armenian and Georgian, beautifully cooked and presented. The host is lovely. Try some of the Georgian red wine - it's more like a dessert wine and doesn't have to be drunk with food. A great place.

We had dinner as a Dutch family of 4. The food was absolutely splendid. This was the first time we had traditional Armenian food. The quality of food was perfect, everything was fresh and the hostess was incredibly kind. She gave us an explanation about our traditional food as well. The whole restaurant was clean with a very welcoming environment. This restaurant is the real winner of the battle of Hastings. We can fully recommend!

Always nice food. Owner is a very nice lady always makes you welcome.

Fantastic Restaurant and food of Armenian Cuisine! I am Armenian originally and I am surprised to find this rare treasure with Authentic Armenian food here in Hastings. Highly Recommended!!!

Great option on 2 courses lunch for £10. Friendly, fast service. Good very well prepared food reasonably priced. Vegan and vegetarian option. Dogs welcome

Absolutely amazing staff, fantastic food and a lovely atmosphere!

Very nice decoration, lovely service and tasty food !!

Another tremendous dining and hospitality experience at Nur. It’s the third time I’d taken advantage of a two course lunch menu, and each time has been memorable. The attention to detail and aesthetic nature of the table setting, art on the walls, even the glass dispenser the water comes in, immediately brings a sense of calm and beauty; there is a no nonsense, proud to show off its wares, attention to detail relatability to the front of house manager, with a genuine community feel as people come in, many seeming to be known by name there. In general it’s culture - Armenian by heritage I think - is delightfully welcoming. Near the window is perfect for people watching, and each time I’ve had fare from the menu it’s been exemplary and memorable. This time a spicy humus with harissa led the way, followed by steak which was really tasty, obvious star on the plate, with nicely done and presented accompaniments. The heavens opened outside in a teeming monsoon which only served to heighten the atmosphere and the sense of being in a haven and, to be honest, I felt slightly spoilt and chuffed to be in the know that this kind of lunch can be enjoyed for a tenner. Not bad in this cynical day and age where you wouldn’t get much change for £10 from a sandwich and a drink at nearby coffee brand chains. Thoroughly recommended. Whether you’re local, nearby - St Leonard’s for me - or visiting Hastings from out of town, this is the place for lunch and a wide view of Hastings street life rolling past. Possibly a weekly staple for me going forwards.

Great lunch menu at only £10.for two courses. Delicious food and lovely, friendly service. We wish them every success. Would be great if you could get gluten free bread please.

The most beautiful restaurant .so stylish .The staff are so professional and attentive.The food is excellent.

Excellent food and service in beautiful surroundings Great friendly atmosphere. Starter nice hot vegrtable soup Main pulled beef very nice

An Armenian restaurant serving authentic home-cooked food, served to you by the lovely, friendly and attentive owner. A true delight. We've been here more than once and wouldn't hesitate to return next time.

Got a too good to go bag. Done this a few times before and all other places give a small dish and maybe a salad and desert. Not the scraps put into leaking Tupperware that I received. Called up to ask why we had been given cut up frankfurters with lumpy mash, leaking stuff and the driest rye bread sandwich known to man.. but the manager was so rude and defensive when I even started to ask about what we had received, and started shouting hysterically down the phone. I realised I wasn’t going to get any understanding of why I would be dissatisfied and hung up on her still yelling at me despite having asked her to stop shouting and talk to me. I won’t ever go to this place now, will actively discourage others! What an embarrassing way for a manager to act!

This place is a little gem!!! Everything we ate was delicious!!! Can’t wait to come back again. 😍

Really lovely Armenian food, seafood basket, mushroom stroganoff are really good. Especially the Armenian red wine, have to try! Staffs are very very friendly.

I came here for a Too good to go Magic Bag. Great amount of food for a fiver. Tasted awesome 10/10, will 100% use again just been back for another magic bag. Was greeted like a long lost friend, by name, with glee. Picked up 2 types of soup, a corned beef salad, a chicken wrap, sandwiches, a dessert, some jam and sourdough bread £5. a result

They host the Jazz Organisation every Thursday, worth popping in for. Different musicians each week

I came here for a Too good to go Magic Bag. Great amount of food for a fiver. Tasted awesome 10/10, will 100% use again

Excellent Armenian food in a lovely atmosphere. The host was very accommodating and made some of the dishes vegan on request. Would highly recommend!

My friend and I came here Friday evening, such beautiful interior with comfy chairs 😍 We both had olives with bread for starters and then we had the Mushroom stroganoff which I highly recommend, also We shared a bottle of Red wine which was very nice to. The Lady-host was fantastic, very welcoming, friendly and gave us a pot of Kimchi on the house which I agree went rather well with are meal. I will be back on my next visit to Hastings

Lovely food at a great price. Staff are so friendly. Nice selection of dishes. Would recommend.

Lovely food and stunning restaurant.

Delicious food and excellent service. The owner of NUR gave us advice on what all the Armenian dishes included, and tip top service. happy to recommend this restaurant for an evening out.

Eating Armenian food was a first for all of us and what an experience! The food was beautifully cooked and super tasty: as a group of 6 (including a vegan) we chose dishes across the menu and every dish was a success. The owner informed us about the different ingredients and flavours and offered helpful suggestions. The restaurant is beautifully furnished with fascinating pictures and portraits on the walls and comfortable, colourful furniture. This place is a must for any visit to Hastings

What a treasure to have found. Super friendly staff/owners, offering a warm welcome in a lovely environment. The food was really delicious and very good value. The lady owner was brilliant in helping marry the food to the wine, great beers too. To top it off on Thursday evenings they have a really good jazz club with top musicians and amazing guest artists.....and the chairs were very comfortable.

I don't have enough words to express my gratitude for this unforgettable Birthday😍☺️ Many thanks to everyone for the congratulations, to everyone who was with me on this special day🥰 Thanks to Ruzanna and Ilona for the festive atmosphere and amazingly delicious dishes🤤😍 Many thanks to Emma, ​​Simon and Maddie for the great support and family atmosphere🤗❤️ Thanks to Arman, Temo, Victoria and Annush for the cheerful atmosphere and incendiary dances😋 Thanks to the musicians for the wonderful live music. Many thanks to all of you for the most incredible, most atmospheric and unforgettable Birthday Party 🎉 🥳 🎂 Thanks to my international family for great emotions and fun, incendiary dances and laughter🤗 Love you all🤗🥰😍

Staff are incredibly passionate and friendly in this Armenian family run restaurant. The host was able to give solid recommendations and took constructive criticism about the food very well. Would definitely go again if I was in the area

The food was absolutely amazing, smells and tastes beautiful! The restaurant is lovely inside, very comfortable chairs, and the staff are so friendly!! I can’t wait to come and try the lunch menu.

Armenische Überraschung, richtig lecker und die herzlichste Inhaberin, die ich je in einem Restaurant erlebt habe.

Tasty food. Lovely, friendly staff. Great ambience. We have been a few times already. We would definitely recommend them.

delightful lunch menu, warm casual atmosphere, very friendly service, worth going out of your way to visit. We had an excellent prix fixe lunch plus drinks

A really lovely restaurant - Armenian and other dishes from that part of the world. Beautifully cooked. 8 of us (friends of Maggie) served so well on Saturday night. Stylish decor. All reasonably priced. Big thanks to Rosanna (hope I have spelt it correctly) and her staff for a lovely time and her kindness

Really nice friendly people. Food is always lovely. If you like art, it's like dining in a gallery! Very good lunchtime specials.

Completely wonderful from start to finish. Delicious food, friendly and charming service, and a lovely space to spend some time in.

Really good food, beef melting in my mouth. Sausage was fantastic and soup of the day was AMAZING. I loved every single thing I ate today and my husband loves it too. Nice visuals, interiors was pretty and creative, not like in this new restaurants where everything is just black or grey and staff was very nice. Overall great experience on holiday

Once I came in it felt like home. Everything - food, interior, people is absolutely divine. Had my first khachapuri there and now I feel very sorry to discover such a beautiful place in my last day in town. Next time I’m coming here - going straight to NUR! Sending love from Ukraine 🫶

Great food. Friendly staff Lovely decor.

Went here on a Thursday evening which happened to be a live music night. Very warm welcome and a really nice atmosphere. The food was amazing but what was a real surprise was how good the musicians where in fact we stayed most of the evening and enjoyed a really nice home made apple cake. Would highly recommend this place good food and drinks

A spur of the minute decision led to a wonderful relaxed long lunch, with a very pleasant host attentive to our needs. Excellent cuisine.

What a place! Fatastic food, beautiful decor, friendly staff, cheerful proprieter, art gallery on walls and those Thursday jazz evenings! Unforgetable experience. And if you have some special dietary requirements, don’t be shy – just mention them and the chef will come up with a few suggestions to make sure that there is no need to compromise on taste and quality. Hastings is really lucky to have NUR.

beautiful design of the restaurant, delicious food, hospitable service, reasonable prices. I advise everyone to visit this restaurant.

Surprisingly wonderful. Now I've eaten here I'm embarrassed I haven't done so sooner.

We’ve had a 2 course lunch and drinks where drinks were the only thing worth paying money for ! Food was disgusting, we’ve had a 2 course lunch which consisted of a very tiny portion of a cabbage salad ( alternative because they didn’t have ingredients for a fresh salad) - and a soup for my friend which was the only edible thing! The main was unedible and extremely disappointing! None of us could eat it - me being non meat eater and my friend being a meat eater! It was meant to be vegetables wrapped in cabbage’ It tasted purely like some sort of fatty oily meat without a single vegetable apart from cabbage in it. I’ve been told it’s a ‘meat replacement’ but then why calling it vegetables on the menu ? It looked and tasted disgusting. Left a whole dish Very disappointing and won’t be recommending to anyone or coming back ever again The worst spent £65 ever!!!!

Wonderful Armenian food which is new to us and totally delicious. Beautifully presented and freshly cooked. Warmest of welcomes. Can't recommend this enough.

We've just been in for a valentine's meal and I can't fault anything. The reception was warm and friendly, we didn't feel rushed. The food was really good and wasn't expensive. A lovely restaurant, we will definitely be returning

Would highly recommend, the food was perfect and the lady serving was lovely. Will definitely be going back. Thank you

I recommend the Dolma. The staff are super friendly and the music is a vibe ☺️☺️

This is a most excellent restaurant. Lovely atmosphere, great food and gorgeous decor. Me and my partner visited for a lunchtime meal, and were very impressed. The lunchtime menu was delicious, and very reasonably priced, and we had a superb Armenian wine. Also, the staff, Rosanne and Iona, were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. We will defiantly be going back soon, and will be recommending NUR to everyone. Thanks for a very pleasant lunchtime.

Well done Ruzanna!! Everthing was just perfect!!!

We celebrate New Year Eve. Wonderfull!

Accueil très bien, salle bien décorée et cuisine très bonne.

We had a family dinner here with absolutely gorgeous Armenian wine and delicious traditional food with very reasonable prices. We will be back very soon thank you

This place is beautiful fantastic decor and great staff , so accommodating and love the glasses !! Food is so nice 5* really lovely place

Very friendly. Had starter and main off the lunch time £10 offer. Was very tasty.

Having walked past this restaurant for a very long time and deliberating about whether to give them a go I spotted their amazingly priced lunch menu. That sealed it. 2 courses for a tenner. The food is delicious. Service is fantastic and you can tell...

Delicious food & lovely people. I took my family and my partner’s family here for dinner on Sunday night and we had a fantastic time. The lamb and the pear cake were amazing! Actually all of the dishes were great, couldn’t fault the service either. Highly recommended and we can’t wait for our next visit. Thank you Ruzanna!

I went here with my partner, her parents (who were over from Poland), my parents (who were down from Birmingham) & my brother (down from Herts) last night. It was the last night of their visit so there was a lot riding on it. We...

This is the worst restaurant I have ever had the misfortune to try and portions are tiny prices are extremely high we would never go back again.

We like an unusual place to eat. My wife and I were bimbling around Hastings and were at first drawn to the sign for the £10 2 course lunch menu. When we looked inside at the decor we knew we must eat there. We were...

The chairs were comfy, the decor stunning, the food, beer and wine excellent and our service was great. Easily my new favourite Hastings restaurant!

We had the khachapuri and chicken NUR for main wow it was incredible so much flavour we had the seafood basket for starter it was amazing great portions sizes we will be back

Lovely warm welcome and friendly service. Food was amazing, first Armenian food we'd ever tried. Started with the sharing platter, cold meats, dips, king prawns cooked in coconut milk, flatbread, aubergine stuffed with spicy rice ,stuffed vine leaves. Really delicious, particularly the prawns. The Nur...

Lovely food, lovely people, great service 👍👍👍👍

Sedie comodissime, personale gentile, ci ha anche fatto assaggiare due tipi diversi di birra. Piatti ottimi, cucinati sul momento con ingredienti freschi.

Enjoyed lovely lunch with my bestie. Lamb Nur was divine - melt in the mouth. Gorgeous flatbreads, really sweet decor and polite service. Great value - will be back!

Firstly, let me declare that I am an Armenian so you would think that I will give a favourable review no matter what. However, and I have dined at NUR many times, last night's meal was a miracle. I was moved to tell the wonderful,...

I might be going against the grain here but I felt NUR was way overpriced and very small portions when ordered through delivery. I ordered a lamb dish which had very little actual lamb meat - I get that shoulder is a fatty cut but to have 3 pieces of meat is a bit mean. The burger was really tough and the chips didn't taste freshly cut - which I'd expect from a restaurant. The star is for the rice. We spent £52 on the takeaway and won't be ordering again. I did phone up to share my experience but was I met with instant denial, on the verge of proposing my feedback was untrue. Thanks NUR a great response to someone sharing their experience.....

Setvice poor, had to ask for serviettes, table not prepared well. Menu said, "ask for wine and drinks list", but there isn't one. Therefore, no drinks prices displayed anywhere. Had to go to bar to choose wine, again, had to ask for prices. Dogs allowed,...

I've never eaten Armenian food before, so went with an open mind. The food quality was excellent, restaurant decor tasteful and music not too loud, so idea for a couple's evening out. £73 for 2 people, including wine and 1 dessert, so not too expensive...

Superb lunch. A pleasure to try something different

Came here for the first time today, really nice atmosphere and the food was amazing. Will definitely be back.

We were attracted by the fact the Armenian elements of the menu, and thought this would be a little bit different. We weren't disappointed - very well cooked and very tasty.

Very nice - loved the decor (especially the oh so comfy chairs). Menu is interesting and contains authentic Armenian dishes. We shared 2 delicious starter platters, one of which was vegetarian, which consisted of a selection of interesting salads, hummus, foccacia, ham, hot kielbasa, salami, hard boiled quail's eggs and preserved herring on rye bread. Mains were mushroom stroganoff for the 2 vegetarians, lamb shank, beef stroganoff and slow cooked lamb with Mediterranean vegetables..desserts were also sublime. Service was great, really welcoming and I can definitely recommend the Georgian red wine!

If you are a steak lover like me… this is it! Perfectly cooked, great service and atmosphere! Highly recommend this gem!

Brilliant authentic Armenian restaurant - we had a fabulous meal, every meal was special, with friendly attentive service … a gem find!

Our climbing group arranged an evening out. A mix of people, age wise & dietary wise. The ladies serving us were very attentive, as we all arrived in dribs & drabs. We tried a Latvian beer when we arrived. It was great to try something...

Oh my God - popped in last night just by chance and I had the best lamb dish in my life! Melt in the mouth food and the front of house server was absolutely delightful - couldn’t have been better!

Food very salty and low quality. Misunderstanding menu. Waitress little bit rude. Coca-Cola was not sparkling. One little plus for the interior. I ended up in mcdonalds ;)

The food was great,service was great,place was spotlessly clean will definately go back again and recommend it to anyone.

Do yourself a favour and avoid this place at all costs! If this place is the only place opened in Hastings,I strongly advice you to go home and have a cup of tea!This “restaurant” is run by criminals from Armenia!The lady who runs the “restaurant” is a thief and a liar! You will not get what you want in that place and you will be properly overcharged!She will try to avoid giving you a receipt,because these people are criminals and do the best they can,to avoid paying taxes!They are also smuggling illegal products in the country,and they sell illegal cigarettes right across the street in a shop which also belongs to them!But if you make the mistake and decide to eat in that restaurant,you have to be careful,and also make sure that you take all your belongings with you. If you forget something there,she will take it and you will never see your property again,because she will keep lying and lying to you again and again,until you’ll give up!Same with her employees from the shop across the street,who are thieves and liars,and she covers up for them! I make an appeal to proper authorities to investigate these places thoroughly,because and don’t believe that is in the best interest for the council,to allow criminal operations like that right in the town center!Also,I will put some information in here,some links where you can go and report these criminals,especially the woman(Ruzana),if you’ve been a victim and ripped off by her or her employees!

I had a amazing meal, and I would definitely be going back 😋

Just fabulous authentic food beautifully presented and delicious... From starter, Main course through wine to a delightful finish, it was a great atmosphere and experience... Thanks!!!

Had a delicious meal here, steak was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned, and pork ribs literally fell off the bone. Lovely atmosphere and staff very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend. 👌🏾

The décor is fascinating,a real mix of colours,patterns and imagination. The menu is varied and the food is good

Very nice place and amazing food.

Our first time here and u can say with certainty…. We will be back next week. Great food and speciality beers. Thanks for a wonderful evening.

I had the pork belly special of the day and it was out of this world! I’m doing the keto diet and the kitchen accommodated the food to my diet which was very nice of them. The atmosphere is amazing and the staff are so...

We had pork belly and khachapuri was amazing. both were very full and happy, service was amazing and the decor is stunning 🤩 will be back !

Food was perfect, just the right amount of food and cooked beautifully. Chairs comfortable and lovely atmosphere. They have thought of everything!

Never having tried Armenian food before, it was pleasure to try something new. The lamb with pomegranate was excellent. Thank you...

I had never been to Hastings before and when I went for work I figured the restaurants would be typical British seaside fare. Nur an Armenian place was a wonderful surprise. Food was fresh, different and well flavoured. I was on my own and not...

Despite explicitly clarifying how items on the menu were served the orders were different when they arrived with additional ingredients and pre applied sauces. We didn't have time to re-order so we ate what we could and left. Very disappointing experience from somewhere that looked...

This was my first visit on a Thursday night and, in addition to delicious food (especially recommend the Lamb NUR), the jazz band playing created a very chilled and relaxing atmosphere. The service was efficient without being intrusive and the staff friendly. Will definitely be...
