Walked in the off chance on a busy Saturday lunchtime. The staff were so helpful and friendly, accommodating us quickly. Food was great, beer good. Pub also dog friendly. Would recommend after a visit to Pevensey Castle

We were booked for a table of 10 and the food was frankly damn poor at best. Considering the price of a main averaged at over £15. The pork belly was £18.50 and it was overcooked with soggy veg. My burger was tasteless, with some tired looking salad leaves and a handful of chips. Other meals were equally overcooked and poorly presented. Cod and chips were the fish was deep fried to oblivion and dry. Pies looked like they'd been cooked on the surface of the sun. Service was slow, and the meals took far too long to come out, not the wait time, but service to the table from the first plate to the last was far too long. There were two waiting staff who could easily carry 4 dishes between them and it took about 15 odd minutes to serve the table the food and one dish was forgotten and came out later than the rest. The meal was completed with typical ans frankly rubbish microwaved crumble/fudge cake options or ice-cream. Would not recommend for food nor will be be returning. If I wanted over cooked stuff and microwaved desert I could mess my own meals up at home for less money.

Birthday family get together. Really friendly staff even though incredibly busy . Food was delicious . I had the halloumi & beetroot salad followed by turkey roast dinner . Plenty of turkey. I brought a birthday cake in for my mum which the staff brought to the table with plates & cutlery & sang happy birthday. They couldn’t have been more welcoming. We will definitely be back . The atmosphere was good also. We saw a huge beer garden & people with their dogs in & outside pub. I personally wouldn’t bring to bigger dog inside because it gets so busy. Thankyou!

Went here with my elderly mum for Sunday roast. The staff were all super friendly and chatted to us every time they came to the table. The food was really plentiful and well cooked; they were happy to leave some of the vegetables off of my mum's plate as she wouldn't have eaten them. Lovely and cosy with a friendly atmosphere. Always enjoy coming here whenever I'm in Eastbourne.

Good local pub, I often frequent here for morning coffee and/or alcohol. Not huge inside, but the addition of the marquee at the side doubles the seating area. This outside space has external heating, which keeps the chill at bay and the rain off. Staff are always welcoming.

Food was yummy - interesting and different choice of food on the menu. Well worth a visit. Recommend the soup which was full of flavour - note this is a daily dish so depends on the day for which flavour. Another recommendation is Homemade Sussex Smokie - one reason for this being a return visit.

What a difference to the Smugglers down the road. Beautiful location next to the Castle, welcoming, you can actually drink and be served in the bar, just like one might expect in a pub and a great choice of beers for those into real ale, about 5 in all, including Long Man which is rapidly becoming a favorite. A beautiful garden and a covered area too in case it does get busy, something I might expect from a pub that thinks it’s a restaurant but this pub doesn’t take such a narrow perspective. Obviously this is run by someone who understands and respects the drinker as well as the eater, rather than treats them with contempt. Just wish we had come here first.

Visited here on a Saturday afternoon. 5 in total. Was seated in the bar area. Very drafty as people were constantly leaving the door open and the wind was blowing through, not to mention people smoking in the orange gazebo so the smoke was blowing through. Not pleasant while you're eating. Food was nice. When desert eventually came, we had a very long wait for it, one of the party had the Waffle Nacho, it had sat a while because the ice cream had melted and was running off the slate plate, the boy did apologise but even so. He gave a fork to eat it with! Service was ridiculously slow. I think they actually forgot about us. The lady behind the bar was trying to serve a constant queue of drinks and tend to the seated customers......it wasn't good.

Good food - the gluten free battered cod and chips was a real bonus! The special fried courgette bites were appreciated by many in our group. The gluten free sticky toffee pudding is amazing - don’t think you need the mini fudge cubes on it though. It really doesn’t need them as the sponge and sauce is delicious. Good choice on menu with some large and small portions offered. Enjoyed our meal thank you.

Went for a Sunday roast whilst staying away in the area. Food was very underwhelming and portions were very small, if I had not ordered and paid for a standard/adult roast I would have thought it was a child’s portion. Looking around the other tables, I wish I had ordered one of their other meals which looked a lot better and larger….. very disappointing Sunday lunch

A friendly pub with a large garden area right next door to Pevensey Castle, we visited at lunchtime and found a seat although all seats in the Conservatory/ Awning were reserved. The parasols didn't fit the table and seats very well, a few people kept swapping seats because of this. Also some of the picnic benches were very low and became uncomfortable when we came to eat, as you were squashing up your tummy 😔

Came for dinner for a planning meeting, food was really good, nice sized portions, and tasty. The downside to my visit was when attempting to start a tab was told 'people who sit outside must pay with their order', that's fine, bought drinks and went to find a table and browsed the menu. Came back to the bar to order food and waited for another customer to order their drinks... Who then went back to sit outside without paying. When I asked about the policy to pay when sitting outside I was told 'they're sitting outside, but different'..... Different? Was there actually a policy?

We walked to Roac from Eastbourne as it was a nice day,stopped for lunch. We both opted for a prawn sandwich, the menu states the rolls are from poppey seed (Eastbourne bakery), however the bakery may wish they weren't named on the mend as both our rolls tasted dry and dated. The prawns were certainly few and far between, picture added. Shame as it's a nice pub on summers day, just drinks next time, I think.

Staff very friendly, attentive and dog friendly with lovely garden in fantastic location. Would highly recommend as a lunch or dinner venue and especially lovely in the summer. 5 star.

Love this pub! We ate here on 3/5/24 and again had yummy food. Starters were Satay chicken, so lovely because instead of a boring skewer, it came in it's own little dish with a lovely side salad, it tasted absolutely lovely, tender chicken pieces and plenty of sauce. Then we had the Cajun chicken for mains, again tender and delicious with their fab rustic chips. The staff are great and the pub has a lovely friendly atmosphere. Thank you and we will be back soon!

Avoid avoid avoid …went out for a family meal with the dogs such a disappointment since the new chef has joined. Starter. Thai chicken satay - after the second attempt this is what they brought out, chicken was deep fried from frozen then went swimming in peanut butter, it was not for human consumption. Main course - fancy stale sour dough roll with a cremated beef patty however the salad and dressing was to die for… When I complained to staff I was confronted by an aggressive lady who told me I’m an old fuss pot they have never had a complaint before and that it’s the second dish they’ve cooked for me, no refund offered we won’t be returning.

I was shocked to find the gammon, eggs and chips cost £18 and was just raw ham, one boiled egg cut up into 4 pieces, about 8 dry chips and a handful of salad without dressing. I asked if the egg would be fried and the lady told me they don't fry them, I was confused but was ensured it was an ordinary gammon and eggs. I was very disappointed, it was dry and tasted of nothing. I wouldn't recommend this place at all, it's overpriced and the food is awful.

Staff were amazing. The starter which was the pork belly was amazing too. However our mains were not. Me and my partner ordered the ultimate roast. When it arrived. The potatoes were burnt. We were lead to believe that you got 3 meats. Turns out it was a choice of 2. However when we ordered we weren’t given the choice and then when we mentioned this we were told they had ran out of the lamb. The beef and pork were so dry. The pigs in blankets were the smallest, driest cocktail sausages with no bacon. We were both starving as had only eaten breakfast and were saving ourselves for this “ultimate” feast. My friends pork was also dire. The kids ham egg and chips came with a boiled egg? We were all so disappointed that when one of the staff came over to ask. We did say that it was ok and whilst still talking the waitress just walked off. That was only one member of staff. However the rest of them were lovely and went above and beyond. Just a shame the food was a let down. Especially when you pay £38 for a sharer roast. Beautiful grounds though.

A pleasant pub that does good food. Served by friendly staff. It is situated right next to the entrance to PEVENSEY Caste so the area has an ‘olde worlde’ feel to it. You can sit inside to eat or if just looking for a drink there is the bar area or there is also a covered outdoor area if fresh air is what you seek. In the summer months you can eat and drink in the large garden which makes for a nice setting.

Rude , But on looking waitress heard this and come over and said we got table near back room fire Result ! We all ordered Sunday Roast apart from one as Veggie , Quick service , Poor portions indeed couldn’t believe it child’s meal especially £16 per head had to ask for more gravy and sauces ie horseradish ext this was not acceptable especially with reviews prior in which we traveled 25 miles to try this place ! We had couple of friends to join us just for drinks in which we spent over £140 for the hour or so we were there ! Food was not we really expected sorry very poor shame !

Warm and friendly pub with attentive and cheerful bar staff, very much improved since the previous nasty owners. The food here was very nice. I really enjoyed the Smokey and Darren liked his moussaka too. Everything was cooked perfectly and the portions where just right. Puddings sounded great on the menu, they have a large selection of homemade ice cream and other delights but I was to full to try them. Fantastic beer garden. They have added a large markee area out the back to provide more seating in bad weather and it's a huge improvement. Also a pleasant little hut for smokers which is just missing a heater to make it perfect. Loads of parking. Great for walkers and dog friendly.

I visited The Royal Oak & Castle at the very end of a weeks visit to Eastbourne. After disappointments in many establishments during my holiday at least I returned home in the knowledge that good food, excellent service and very clean surroundings do exist not far from Hampden Park where I was staying. My Sunday Lunch was an absolute pleasure and the caramel ice cream was superb. The staff were very proficient and each gave service with a smile. Unlike establishments I visited earlier in the week there wasn't a scrap of food left on or around any of the tables in The Royal Oak and Castle. Clean conditions, excellent decor and a well behaved clientèle made my visit a very positive and memorable dine-out. The Guinness was first class too. It is obvious that in this delightful pub standards matter and perhaps pubs with a lesser standard should visit the establishment to see how service should be delivered. A very big thank you from Peter of Shropshire.

We went in with our two dogs today and ordered 2 Sunday roasts. We usually frequent a different establishment for our Sunday feeding but we took the plunge after walking the kids to try out the new owners menu. Without too much more ado, We weren't disappointed with our choice. Two dinners later and we both agreed that it was the best Sunday roasts that we ever had.. it's a family run pub with Dad in the kitchen , the man is a culinary genius, it was a nice touch too that he took the time to come out during the meal and see how we were ... Really friendly well run family restaurant and bar with ( in my humble opinion) the best food around.. well worth the visit... 10/10...

Vegetables on point topped with Yorkshire puddings and delicious gravy. Followed by an amazing pudding of choice. Enough said I’m booking a return visit asap ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The customer service was very good and there was a choice of indoor and outdoor seating. The cafe discourages people using laptops. Looked to be a good selection of cakes and drinks. The lunches we saw looked good quality but there are cheaper lunches available in Uckfield. We would us it again.
