St Mary's Cafe and Bar is a friendly beachside spot in the heart of Hastings where you can enjoy a local coffee, a fresh bite to eat or a drink at the bar. A lovely environment with some nice plants to set a relaxing atmosphere. The tables were not cleaned after the previous customer, and it seems to be very busy at times. Still had a great time.

Such a lovely ambiance here. Staff are lovely polite friendly & hardworking, our waitress was all alone taking orders, doing drinks & serving food but not once got flustered & it was busy she still was attentive to every table nothing was too much trouble. Food was amazing as well as the coffee. Best coffee on the seafront. I have now found my regular stop off point.

Dog-friendly cafe, I'm saying this first as it's so important. We've been to to this cafe a couple of times since we got our dog a couple of years ago go and the dog gets as big a welcome as we do if not more! The cafe is light, bright and with Well spaced tables. There are also other tables outside Looking towards the sea but well separated from the main hustle of people passing by on the prom. Food is fresh and tasty and the coffee is very good. Asked for some water and we were bought a big jug of iced water with fruit in it to flavour it. Our dog was given complimentary dog biscuits and a lot of fuss which he adored. The young staff there are unfailingly polite and pleasant. The place is a little quirky being part of the church crypt, and has a very nice ambience. And is as I said before very dog-friendly. Highly recommended.

Waited an over hour for our food then eventually had to leave as had other commitments away from the centre to get to. The reason for the delay was a big table before us when it was a only table of 6, no one else at the restaurant, just didn’t expect to wait so long for brunch when most of us have ordered scrambled egg.

First time there, we went to a burlesque show. Fantastic amphitheatre, vaults and architecture, there was a rowdy group, who were annoying, but that's not the fault of the venue, so it still gets 5 stars from me.

Went to bar for Fat Tuesday quiz - which was good fun. But given all the fab pubs in Hasting the drinks could be a bit more innovative - locally brewed beer (even in bottles would be a start). Please sort out kitchen though - really strong smell of old dirty chip fat - even our clothes absorbed it! There is no excuse!

Disappointed with the Service and Communication at Judges Bakery, Hastings I recently had a deeply disappointing experience with Judges Bakery in Hastings. I purchased a cake for a friend, only to later discover it was out of date. What should have been a straightforward process to resolve this turned into a frustrating ordeal. After calling and emailing the bakery multiple times, I was passed around between various staff members, each offering no real resolution. Despite explaining clearly that I am not local and would need a bank transfer for the refund, they initially insisted on giving me cash in person. I had to persistently follow up before anyone even acknowledged this. Instead of addressing the problem immediately, the bakery seemed more concerned with defending their actions rather than understanding the impact this had on me as a customer. Worse still, they used accusatory language, calling me “malicious” for simply expecting a refund for an out-of-date product they sold. This level of customer service is unacceptable. Only after several emails and phone calls did they finally agree to process the refund via bank transfer, but to date, I still haven’t received it. I would advise anyone thinking of shopping here to be cautious. If you find yourself in a similar situation, you may end up spending more time chasing a basic refund than actually enjoying your purchase. I have reported them to my credit card company and will be reporting them to trading standards and the food standards agency.
