The Beach Deck in Eastbourne

Highly recommend this place everything nice you should go there.

Our favourite place for lunch in Eastbourne. We're regular visitors and have always had exceptional service, amazing food and good coffee. Dog friendly, with sausages for the pooches available on request.

Love this place. It's like being on holiday sitting outside with the sea rolling in front of you. Great food, great service, great staff. It holds a place in my heart. X

We popped to Eastbourne as it was a chilly but sunny day and stopped here for a Coffee. I had a lovely Gingerbread Latte and a slice of Gluten Free Carrot Cake which was delicious. Staff lovely, very clean and generally a very nice place to have a coffee.

Good service, the food was tasty and well portioned. Menu had a good choice for all dietary requirements.

I love coming back here every time I'm in Eastbourne. Delicious food and proximity to the beach make this place unique.

A lovely spot for a breakfast or a bite to eat while enjoying the scenery. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious and reasonably priced and the atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. Will certainly visit again when I'm back to visit family.

Waited half an hour to get a table, then told breakfast had finished, then told once seated that they were only doing drinks and had to wait for food as they were busy and had not started lunch….. poor service!

This was our second visit. Great location near to sea, (and car park if needed) and both times we have sat out on the deck overlooking the sea. The atmosphere is relaxed. The food is nice, some traditional and modern dishes. However, the service definitely needs improvement. There were around 5/6 waiters but they are badly managed so therefore there is never one when you need one. They have a queue for a table system, but we watched at least 5 groups of people walk back away because no one was monitoring it. There were some empty tables that needed clearing that could have moved the queue along quicker. We asked for ketchup but never received it and my drink was wrong but no waiter around to ask for it to be changed…. The drinks had already arrived after the food too! Even paying was hard as the girl inside was very busy and no one else around. Eventually we did pay but It would have been easy to walk off without paying, I wonder how many do?!!

Amazing food, views and service. I had smashed avocado on sour dough with poached egg. Hubby had full English. Would recommend.

The Beach Deck does incredible food for Breakfast, lunch and dinner. The staff are always friendly and chatty. The prices are good value for the food you get and wonderful views out to the sea. Perfect place for any occasion.

It's a great location in Eastbourne when it's warm and sunny if you want a view of the sea, sitting outside above path level. The service was good and staff very friendly. The cod and chips we had were quite a plateful, I found it hard to finish. It was a change to have everything (bar the peas) on a plate together instead of chips in a basket/tin/mug/hat/whatever.

The menu looked good and the server was friendly and efficient. We order the full English, I asked if I could swop the mushrooms for bacon- but the server explained this was not the policy otherwise everyone would do it! She offered to keep the mushrooms off my plate and said I could ‘buy’ extra bacon. I declined. The breakfast looked appealing when it arrived though I did have to use my napkin to soak up some of the grease on the plate. The meal was ‘ok’, it was expensive for just an ‘ok’. The ladies toilet didn’t have soap or the dispenser didn’t work- I’m not sure which, but in this day and age it should work! My husband said the male toilet soap dispenser did work. The Wi-Fi doesn’t work either. All told, it was just ‘ok’

This was our first time visiting, we met friends there. It was a nice clean restaurant, we had breakfast and it was reasonably priced. The staff we encountered were all very friendly. It had a nice atmosphere.

Great views and great location. The menu is varied and everyone will find something that tickles their taste buds. I had the delicious vegan Cauliflower bowl which came with edamame, rice, carrots etc. It was filling and tasty. For dessert I had vegan warm chocolate brownie with vegan ice cream which was divine. There is loads of seating outside facing the sea and inside. Great place to accommodate all, including big parties and big groups. Great decor, staff are friendly and efficient. I would definitely go back!

No idea what the problem is with the staff here, came in yesterday and wasn’t aware they closed at 5 at first. Ordered a pint of Cruzcampo and another 10 minutes before closing. I’ve had a cold and a really bad cough but still tried to drink the second pint quickly as I felt bad for keeping them open.. stayed until 5:15 (15 minutes after they closed) and left half my pint as I felt bad I couldn’t drink it as quick as I wanted because I still had a bit of a sore throat. Came in today and ordered a pint alone this time, and I don’t know whether they think I’m deaf or plain stupid but I can hear them while I’m sitting outside outright taking the piss and telling staff who weren’t working what happened yesterday. I could’ve stayed an extra 15 minutes and finished my drink but I felt bad so to hear them today taking the mickey saying things like “awww mummy I can’t finish my drink I have a sore throat” is a bit of a kick in the teeth. I’ll put the unprofessionalism down to the fact the girls working here are young and naive. I’m not going to walk off without paying for this pint or make a scene, but I won’t be coming back. Do better.

Great location and very decent food. Seating inside & out, so good whatever the weather. Not great value for money though. Three of us ate and it came to just over £54, which I think is a little rich for what it is.

Had a family meal, food was nice but a little expensive for fish and chips, service was good

Absolutely gutted, visiting friends in Eastbourne and booked via email. Tried calling as no reply via email to confirm booking. Called and was told no one checked the emails also they were going to be closing early. Very unprofessional :(

Just a great place to go with views across the sea and good food .

What a fantastic venue food and staff were amazing couldn't find fault with any part of my experience

Great setting, lovely clean place, food was lovely even though we were a big party and booked late, food was fantastic and great value for money and our waitress was great!! Highly recommend this gem !!

Always a good place to get the best of Eastbourne seafront. Food, Staff and Ambience worth visiting for all year round.

Wonderful food, wonderful staff, incredible location!

Busy, popular place even on a Sunday morning. Do not order croissant or pain au chocolat- very disappointing. Other breakfasts looked lovely.

Cheap and cheerful 😉 caters for everyone.

Can't fault the food, the service or the view. It's like being on holiday.

Always good value excellent service, clean,well organised

A post walk breakfast - amazing food, good service and lovely views

Lovely food, great place to sit and watch the world go by.

Lovely coffee cake, latte, fish n chips. Recommend.

One of the best and cosy quiet small fishing village n serve the best fish n chips

Bad points.Walked in was told bye three different people,will be with you in a minute.Ten minutes later ,was shown to a table although there was five empty tables that I could see.15 minutes later, and due to frustration, I had to wave my hands in the air to get the attention of a waiter.If you want a peaceful meal and a quiet chat this is not the place as it was really noisy,and hard to hear what each other was saying.Good points.The view was really nice looking over the ocean and the meal was adequate.So three stars about right.

What a wonderful experience, the service and attention to detail about special diets was wonderful Perfect place to take the kids big small and the (mischievous) grandparents

We took a chance and popped in here for a bite to eat after a swim at the Sovereign Center. Lovely evening, stunning view and the food was great. Moderately priced as well for a family of 4. Highly recommended!!! Photos of half eaten food!!! 😲

We ordered some starters with drinks. The view of the sea is lovely at this place and the staff are friendly. I think visiting this place st least once is good. Given the atmosphere, it creates memories. I would recommend this place.

Great food, location and service

Had a delicious brunch with great service. Extra points for being dog friendly too ☺️

Good welcome, fast service. I recommend the mussels :)

Great coffee and hot chocolate with a lovely view and friendly polite staff 😊

Great views, good food, attentive service. What's not to like? Would recommend a visit especially to sit outside on a sunny day.

staff a bit rude. my partner is not english and can come across a little aggresive thats the way europeans are. we ordered cream on top of her ice coffee and paid for it. when it arrived it did not have cream and my partner asked to have cream as she had the same a couple a weeks ago here, she may of came across a little offish when asking for the cream we paid for. im english and was listening to the staff who said to her you should of asked for cream when you ordered as we did ??? and spkoe to my partner the way you should not be to a customer we had no issue it seemed the staff wanted to make it an issue. its a little cream we paid for why the rudness it was embarrasing. live local wont be returning.

A familiy group of nine of us had supper here. It's a clean modern restaurant and the food was excellent. The fish and chips looks a bit minimal, but was first class and the other meals were also. Will definitely go again.

Staying at a local hotel and decided to give the included breakfast a miss and head out... So glad we did, the breakfast here was top notch! Fantastic quality food and service - fantastic location.

Great food and service.. food came quick which is great when you have kids.. service was very friendly

Really nice lunch time fish’n’chips, calamari and burgers. Good menu choices, locally sourced and freshly cooked. Service was great. Great views of the beach and seaside. Long Man beers as well. Highly recommend. We were a walk in group of 5, not the busiest Saturday I’m sure, but we were quickly seated, service was good

Beautiful views from the deck, nice food, reasonably priced. Lovley sights on the beach. 👍

always enjoy coming here, food is always a 10/10, cant fault it, staff always friendly regardless of how busy they are , they are always helpfull . wil be back for sure

We will be back! Beautiful view, lovely atmosphere and helpful staff! There was a perfect amount of time to quickly jump in the sea between ordering and getting back perfectly in time for the meal arriving.

Great place to visit and have food. Very busy but still had great food. Very noisy if you wear a hearing aid.

Lovely venue with a reasonable choice of food. I’m good weather the deck offers a beautiful view but you may have to fight the Seagulls for your food. Would definitely recommend

The staff here are really friendly. The food was good and I sat outside as it was a lovely sunny day. I have been here before a few back and enjoyed it then too.

Fish was delicious, other food was fine. But the service was incredibly slow. It took 30 minutes from requesting the bill to receiving it and it wasn't even busy. Location is lovely though so still had a nice time

Very tasty food, good service and lovely views of the sea.

Can't fault this place. Friendly and efficient staff, delicious food and lovely atmosphere. I've been here about three times now in quick succession. Great spot right on the seafront too.

We came here for coffee, nice staff and delicious cake/coffee.

Great food very relaxing environment with great views. A must stop .

Different experiences every time, rainy nice n quiet very busy not able to get a table inside or out

Went for breakfast which was tasty and reasonably priced. The sun was out so it was busy but we were able to sit outside on large decked area looking out over the beach. Service was friendly and efficient.

It’s a nice, clean restaurant with a lovely view of the Eastbourne beach, would recommend going swimming early in the morning and going here for a eggs Benedict!

Met up with family for breakfast and it was very good and service was very good. Definitely will go back

Great food and service. Best Fish and Chips I've had in a very long time!

Delicious food,able to cater for gluten free. Waitress was friendly and chatty. Reasonably priced. Busy place with a great atmosphere. Would definitely go back. . Every staff member I encountered was really lovely from getting seated to ordering food nothing is too much trouble for them. my waitress happily checked with the kitchen what food could be made gluten free. I’m really impressed with the service I received and I even left a tip ☺️

Great view, good food and service with a smile. What more do you need?

Bit expensive but really enjoyed it.

My favourite for years and years now is the “chorizo hash” accompanied with an orange juice and Americano and in the summer iced black coffee. The sea view is relaxing to see any time of the year inside or out.

I can not speak highly enough of Emily and our meal tonight. The food was excellent and the staff were all so nice. We will definitely re visit.

One of the best fish and chips I have ever tried. Fish was so fresh and came with a big portion of chips for only £15. The service was very quick and attentive. Enjoyed the great food with amazing view.

Excellent food and great service with a view.

Beautiful seafront cafe. We had a lovely breakfast of chorizo and eggs with great coffee. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing view over the sea.

Not the best experience we’ve had. Granted it was Fathers Day so they were busy but they did not have enough staff and those that were on were quite brusque and speaking disparagingly about some customers. We’ve not seen the guy who was in charge before but guess from his manner he was used to working in a pub. Hope it was a one off and the normal staff are back soon

Lovely beach side bar with a good atmosphere

Toilets very dirty. Cubicles far too small to use hygienically. Not a good sign in a restaurant. Will not be going back.

Just got here and staff very nice

Very nice place to stop for a break.good food

Just had cake and coffee but it is right on the beach how could it possibly be bad.

Waited to be seated for 10 minutes and was completely ignored by servers.. no “il be with you in a minute.’”… nothing! There were free table so Me and my friend decided to sit down ourselves. We sat again for another ten minutes whilst 3 waitresses walked past completely oblivious. It wasn’t overly busy. We then asked a passing server for a menu. She then plonked them down and abruptly said. MENUS. Eventually got to order 2 iced coffees. 1 came. The server said i only have one ordered. No sorry… So we left due to the abysmal miserable service. This wasnt one person having an off day . This was all of them. Its a real shame as the views of the sea and the nice weather is really appealing. But when you feel uncomfortable being there it ruins this experience. We wont be going back.

£17 for a burger and they pay their waiting staff minimum wage. Doesn't seem right to me!

Lovely lunch overlooking the sea, very popular, with great views and good size dishes, and allow dogs too

Good food. Kind staff. Beautiful view.

Service a little slow but they were busy.

We have been a few times to The Beach Deck. The food is a bit of a mixed bag, with some things being really good, but some of the staples like Scampi and Fish and chips are definitely better elsewhere, brunch and breakfast has been pretty good. Coffee is nice and good beer. When the sun is out the terrace is a lovely place to sit.

On the beachfront, good food and friendly waitresses. Great for sunny days.

Nice place both outside and inside. Great view of the sea front. Good food.

Yesterday lots of empty tables, big queue waiting, one staff member seen. Previous visit similar but I went in looking for someone to help, which worked but they appear to be very short staffed, both of these were Sundays. Obviously long wait for food due to not enough waiting staff. Shame because food is nice and view really good.

Lovely decor and atmosphere.. good menu, helpful staff..

Asked for no mushrooms (didn't want a replacement either) server said she was afraid to ask the chef not to plate them as he was in a bad mood. What kind of place is this? Terrible that the poor server was too frightened. Definitely won't be going back!

It's always a favourite for a great breakfast!

Good choice of light bites and drinks. Free parking in nearby streets. Great sea views. What’s not to like? 😀

Great spot to meet friends for breakfast. Always quick service and classic breakfast is good value for money.

Lovely view, super friendly staff and varied menu.

Great location, friendly staff, great food. Park on the road to avoid car park charges.

If you want a good view of wind and waves, this is the place for you. Cappuccino and my walnut cake were very tasty

AVERAGE. As is often the case in England in cheap restaurants....

We didn't eat here, we left after a waitress was extremely rude to us because we passed the 'wait here to be seated sign'. We had been there 5 mins with no one coming or acknowledging us and as our daughter is disabled so we politely asked if we could sit at one of the empty tables. She sent us back to wait behind the gate after exchanging a 'look at these thickos' face with her colleague who then also went from being polite to rude too, absolutely aghast that we had asked to sit down as though this was the most peculiar thing she had ever experienced in years of waitressing. We appreciate we made an error of judgement, and should have waited for an indefinite period of time with waitresses walking past us without a greeting - but that attitude is completely uncalled for.

Superb location, tasty food and no rush!

Love this place, great food. Just a tad pricey for a poor church mouse

Great location, good service and good food, we were well looked after and had no issues despite being a party of c20

We shared a lovely lunchtime here, the staff are gorgeous.

Everything was great. Amazing food by the beach, would recommend and come back 😊
