The Aqua Bar in Wealden

Took the kayak down the beach and has a lovely beer here. Garden has superb view of the sea. Had the feeling of a throwback social club without feeling old or tired. Outdoor area was a great place to sit. Can't give too much comment on the food as didn't eat but what was coming out looked good.

What a lovely little pub went for an xmas meal food was amazing ,staff wete lovely ,felt very welcome ,highly recommend

My family of 23 & I went to the Christmas meal that was advertised. The food was amazing. The starters were very tasty I had the onion soup which was delicious. Plenty of vegetables & an extra dish of roast potatoes came to the table which went down well, 😊 Also extra jugs of gravy. The vegetables were cooked to perfection ( well done to the chef) and plenty of turkey on the plates. I had the nut wellington & I can truthfully say it was the best I have ever had. Pudding was great I had homemade (by Julie) chocolate torte & it was so nice. The pub is extremely & visibly clean & the atmosphere was very good, even the locals make you feel welcome. Staff were polite, professional & very attentive/friendly. My family (several had never been to the pub) were very impressed & will definitely be going back. Thank you Aqua bar for giving my family an above & beyond amazing evening, & all at a very good price. I would highly recommend.

Group of 23 went for my mums birthday last night and had the Christmas menu, with a few of the group ordering from regular menu. Absolutely great valve for money, the food was amazing, portion sizes generous. Staff and locals friendly and welcoming, service top notch. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Aqua bar we had a great evening.

What an amazing pub. We had a family gathering and the Christmas menu was amazing, food was fantastic and the staff were very friendly as was the locals. We will 💯 be going back

Delicious meal and a great atmosphere

My sister and I came here 2 years ago and said we would go back and we did. The bar was clean and tidy with a few customers. The lady on the bar was polite and helpful. We did not have to wait long for our food. A good experience over all and highly recommend a vist.

Mega beautiful view of the sea (: Mega good food (: and above all cool rock music (: just wow (:

Great place we came across by accident sheltering from the wind and rain whilst walking on the beach. The food was amazing 👏

Always a treat and reliably amazing fish and chips, although there's plenty of other options. Lovely to sit in a pretty, well-kept garden overlooking the beach. Music, quizzes and general amusement + ice cream for dogs and the rest of us.

I cannot speak highly enough of the Aqua Bar. Its location on the beach, its friendly staff, and most of all, its incredibly talented chef! We had lunch twice at the bar and both times were excellent. The first visit we hat the smoked mackerel salad. This unbelievably good with smashed potatoes and a real salad. The second time I had the steak and ale pie which was enormous and packed with great chunks of mouth-watering steak. This is a must if you are anywhere near Pevensey bay or Eastbourne. The bar is also dog friendly which was a big plus for us. Thanks to the whole team for a couple of great lunches.

The staff are good at their job. He knows how to pore a pint of Guinness. Very good view as your right on the beach The only problem I had was the rude customer's. This is not a fault of the bar. We only had 1 pint

Good food, good beer 🍺 friendly staff, Excellent sea views, what else do you want.

On a windy day a great place to have a fab beer

Food was great. Not a great variety of gluten free foods. Love Aqua's view out over the beach at Pevensey.

Having waited 10min to be served at the bar (buying ice cream and drinks) shoed out the door door by the chef like a wayward pet because we were dripping on the floor. For context this is a beach bar and at least 40 patron's had arrived from the beech before us without issue. We were only dripping because of the long wait as the staff ignored us in preference to regulars at the bar. Can't comment on quality as we were not given the opportunity to purchase anything because grumpy chef virtually ejected us for the audacity of coming into the Aqua bar and dripping on the first two meters of the floor.

Clean tidy, the food we had was very good and reasonably priced, other food going out looked really good. Staff were pleasant and welcoming. Also dog friendly

If you like McDonald's, then, this is a nice one. Quick service. Good seating area inside. Nice little stop on your way to Lidl ...

Lovely place, right on the beach

Beautiful location literally on the beach , very relaxing . Can book in advance , bingo Tuesdays , Quiz Wedn , summer lively and packed on weekends 😁 . Thanks 👍

As 2 Dutch people we watched the NL vs UK Euro 2024 game here. Amazing atmosphere and we felt welcome. Had great fun and quite some laughs with the other customers who supported UK of course. As we all know UK won, but unfortunately lost the final.

We had a drink but will come back for a meal soon

Thank you for the VIP treatment yesterday 💕 (19.7.2024). The cheesecake was divine !

A great bar on the shingle beach. very friendly and helpful staff , great for just a drink or for a meal , a good varied menu, with plenty of seating inside and on the sea view terrace , dog friendly , we booked for 11 of us to have a meal with no hassles . and the price for 11 meals and drinks was lower than expected

What a great seaside venue. Happy atmosphere and if you want quality trades this is the place for you.

Good food great view of the sea and friendly staff

Beautiful pub, good food, friendly service.

Beautiful pub, good food, friendly service.

Came here to celebrate my birthday with family after a recommendation from my sister. It’s a great local pub with a garden overlooking the beach 🏝️. I Loved the delicious homemade steak pie, the family also enjoyed the crab fish cakes and burger. Bit disappointed that there was no desserts apart from ice cream but apart from that we loved sitting in the sun lapping up the English sunshine ☀️ we will be back…👏👏

Great location, always something going on, only been for drinks, lovely place to sit all afternoon in the sun, very dog friendly

Good food and service with views over Pevensey Bay.

Lovely location good food. Would give it five stars but the chap behind the bar was the most miserable I’ve encountered with no please or thankyou let alone the hint of a smile.

Lovely spot on the Pevensey beach, can get food and drinks. Very dog friendly

Fantastic venue whatever the occasion or even just for a drink and proper pub grub with an amazing view of the beach from ur table. The staff are friendly, attentive and happy to help.

Busy but that's expected right on the beach. No ipa but lager. Usual spirits. Food looks nice I didn't eat. Peanuts were lovely.staff were nice but busy

Only had drinks But very nice food being served

Amazing little pub right on the beach. Views are just magic. Have a beer imagining the Romans and Norman's landing on the beach! It's actually where they did!!

People were great that served us, just had a bowl of chips but they were fluffy and crispy. Great day out just on the beach front enjoying the sun

The owner, was not very welcoming. No Parking My mother is 86 and found it difficult walking from the public car park. Food presentation was poor. Dads lasagna was fresh out of the microwave and sufficiently nuked at the edges. The waiter just gave us a bunch of cutlery and didnt even bother to lay the table. Salad comes with everything I got chips instead of new potatoes. No menu just a cheap chalk board from the pound shop that was falling to bits, and the owner/manager just watched my 83 year old dad struggle with it to take it to the table. Definately not worth the money. Poor Poor Poor. Over priced. I will go again the next time i am there, just to see if the standards have improved. Im not surprised there was just a handful of people.

Lovely afternoon in the sunshine ladys behind the bar serving where brilliant..food was delicious highly recommended and free parking for 1 hour but make sure you get a ticket from the machine 😀

Great food we both thoroughly enjoyed our dishes of prawn salad with lots of prawns and homemade curry. Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. So idyllic by the sea.

Just had lunch with a friend and a glass of beer fabulous.

Visited over the weekend. Great atmosphere, amazing views. Bar staff are really friendly. Claire was great and made us feel very welcome.

Lovely pub on the Pevensey beach, nice food and amazing view

Went there for lunch and haven't stopped thinking about it since

Easter weekend got here early for lunch of fish and chips. The food is fresh and flavourful Lovely outside seating especially of you have a dog grassy bit . View is amazing service great so warm abd friendly Food was a real treat and they feed you well portion size wise. Will definitely come back!

Very smart, recent update inside I would imagine. Just had coffees which were very good.

Excellent place for meeting up with friends and great meals good value for money x 😀

Nice little place to grab a quick cuppa just off the beach

Didn't spend a long time here but found the staff both friendly and helpful. Food and drinks were fine. Worth a visit.

Have a drink on the beach and watch the world go by in lovely Pevensey Bay

Lovely staff. Great location. Good selection of draught beer/lagers. I didn't eat here. Would definitely return. Only reason for 4 stars for the atmosphere was it was the middle of the afternoon.

Sadly after several visits, the staff have not even acknowledged us. The service is efficient but not friendly, unless you are part of a small clique of regulars. Their website states that “you’ll feel like part of the family before you finish your first drink” which is untrue. After five years of visiting, they have not made us feel like that once.

Marvellous location and good selection of beers and food

No atmosphere whatsoever, bar flies, loud sport on tv’s. Such a shame as it’s right on the beach but avoid!!!!

Really not as expected!!! Food served in cardboard boxes , so awful!! Not on a plate?? ! So loud , full of kids screaming ! Fireworks mmmm , blink and it’s over! Would never return!

Very friendly and family orientated

Nice beach side bar for a drink

Had a lovely Sunday roast outside on the terrace in the sun. Food was great as was the service. Will be visiting again.

Nice and friendly, popped in for a couple of drinks after a walk along the beach Will definitely go back when we are back in the area and have some food next time

Just one person serving behind the bar with a long queue just to buy a beer!

Nice bar right on the sea front, food is amazing, service is good and toilets are clean....

Buffet disco party for a friend. Nice to see dogs welcome inside. Nice atmosphere created.

We had lunch today, I had the fish and chips.The fish was fabulous but the chips were to thin and over cooked.I would suggest serving thicker fat chips with the fish to make sure that the dish was more authentic.Rhe staff were very friendly and helpful

We go to the Aqua Bar quite often - right on the beach, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and good prices. We had a lovely meal today and we'll be be back soon!

I ordered Homemade Salmon fishcakes, new potatoes and salad. What I received was inedible. The pototoes and plate was swimming in butter and the salad was covered in a greasy also inedible sauce, which I have no idea what it was. The response from the person in charge was very rude and aggressive and dismissive. He said they have served 'thousands' of this meal and everyone loves it!! Reluctantly offered me a free half of larger. I didn't eat my meal. It is in a perfect location on the beach, which is what attracts most people.

Lovely meal food was well cooked ,delicious and a good price.the service was excellent, friendly staff.the whole area was clean and inviting thoroughly enjoyed will be back

Great place , beautiful beach, and Pevensey Bay view . Delicious food, a portion of fish and chips massive. Reasonable prices . Definitely recommend.

Lovely place right on the beach. Nice friendly staff, and tasty food.

It's a nice place to stop and grab a drink to sip sitting outside with the sea view. You will even find Walkers marmite crisps there! Did not have food so cannot comment on it but probably it is good so gave 4 stars. Will come back and probably on a weekday :)

Had a lovely homemade pie and chips for £14.95. Personally, I think it's a bit on the pricey side. Food on the beach with a cold drink in the sun during a busy sunday when the air show was on in Eastbourne. There was a mistake with my billing, but they happily refunded me the difference.

Fantastic beach front bar, excellent food and atmosphere. Staff were fantastic and look after their customers well 10/10. We will be back

Superb place right on the beach, and lovely and spacious inside. Can’t wait to try one of the entertainment evenings. One negative comment is the white bread, it is cheap and nasty, really did spoil the sandwich, my husband said the brown was ok. The fish and chips being served looked lovely. We will be returning for a meal but please change your bread!!

Nice when it’s open… but.. Walked for an hour to get to the bar along the beach. Got there at 9.30pm on a Thursday and it was closed…

Absolutely gorgeous cakes. Prices look expensive but are cheap when you see the size of the portions.

We stopped of here on a wet and miserable Sunday, the Dj was playing some great tunes. It was very busy with a lovely local pub atmosphere. Very good service too, definitely recommend

Cold beer, tasty crisps, live music and an unexpected music quiz in the lovely sunshine by the beach. A hard to beat combination.

Sitting beside the beach, geeks like heaven. Just relaxing, eating, and watching the ocean and birds is incredible.

Didn't eat ,but sat in garden so close to the sea fantastic, lovely and clean and modern ,can't wait to go back to eat .

Great place right on the beach, with very Friendly/helpful staff

Lovely setting on the beach with garden on the beach too. Friendly hard working staff

Very lively atmosphere and very welcoming and friendly staff who ensure you enjoyed your visit.

Excellent oasis right by the beach with lovely views! Love the staff and food! Not to mention the game nights and meat raffle! Spent many an entire afternoon there

It's on the beach, that's the best thing about it in my opinion

Had a short stop here and decided to have the cod and chips. Last two left! We considered ourselves lucky as it was delicious!

We don't live far from the Aqua Bar It was our first time there. It's a bit of the road, down the side of the council car park. So glad we found it. We all had the crab and prawn sandwiches, come with a little salad and crisps. It was absolutely delicious. Lovely outside area over looking Pevensey beach Will definitely be going back. If you find this review helpful please like 👍🏼

Really good food, really good service, overall, a fantastic place to eat and talk.

Handy place to stop for a drink after a walk on the beach.

This is very conveniently placed right by the beach and it's easy to park near by. We had coffee and hot chocolate here, very generous helpings. The menu looked good so looking forward to another visit for a meal

Land lord was fantastic and explained everything that the pub and restaurant had to offer

A variety of meals where had, Roast lamb, Roast Pork, steak pudding & desserts. No complaints from the 8 of us even thou the waiters did make a bit of a hash serving it up. Raffle, play your cards right, DJ & football. Had a great afternoon/evening.

Great place want to take my missus there

I love the decor and the location is superb. The food wasn’t great though. I ordered a crab and prawn sandwich and got cheap sliced bread, margarine (yuk) and the filling was crab sticks!

Beautiful roast. Best roast I've eaten out in a long time. Lovely staff, great atmosphere

Lovely place to have a drink, something to eat, with great views. What's not to like.

I'm from Manchester and was at the aqua bar for a bereavement on the 3rd march staff and facilities were A1 thank you for your hospitality

What a great find. We went in here after walking from Sovereign Harbour and had a Sunday roast. Wow. What a lovely surprise. A really friendly and airy pub on the beach. Hoping to go back this Sunday

Food was terrible wouldn't bother going

Lovely bar in a fabulous spot .
