The London Trader in Hastings - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great seaside place, and great fresh food.

Went here to watch the England Denmark game, got some drinks and sat out front everything seemed fine, then me and my group of mates went in to play a game of pool, and the guy was watching us set up and as soon as we went to play asked us for ID and kicked us out the pub, we missed the first 5 minutes of the England game in the process walking to town centre where I’ll add the Atmosphere was a lot better anyway, never coming back here, you’ve lost a good ten customers.

Nice people who happily got xlean water for our dogs when the sun came out.

Decent pub along the Hastings seafront, has a wonderful history being one of the oldest pubs locally. Staff very friendly. Good place to watch sport. Out door seating on pavement. Nice place to stop and relax for a moment with an ice cold beer!

The atmosphere here is brilliant. I was so lucky to get a table outside next to the heaters. It really made my day before leaving Brighton, central to everything. I need food and shopping . Always handy when you need a pair of scissors to cut a lable off your new clothes. The beer is kept so well, helps with quick turnaround or customer's, the service is quick and efficient. What more can I say? Keep it up, guys

Lovely Pub, lovely staff, the place is always clean, lots of seating available inside and out! There is live music and disco nights. Something for everyone depending on what day/time you visit. They have a wide array of non alcoholic drinks. They have a Juke Box and a pool table, so it is a nice place to hang out. It is conveniently located in the old town, very close to a bus stop.

Shut at 19:30 on a bank holiday. Telling us to F off as the door. Usually this is our go to but felt this is no right or uncalled for.

Out on a Saturday night. Dj was playing people were dancing. Just needs a little bit of a revamp

Didn't rate food only because I didn't try. I had a really great time in the London Trader despite it having changed over the 40 years or so since I last visited. Will definitely be going back soon. And special thanks to barmaid Tania for removing the seafood from under my nose, lol x

Would not go back to this pub ever someone started on us and we got chucked out the landlord a complete joke took the other person's side because he is a regular an utter disgrace should not be running pup.

Great pub friendly staff good for food and a nice cold beer we will be back .

We're only here because the other pubs are shut.

Was quiet when I came but I was able to have a good pint, choose some tracks on the jukebox and play on the games machine

Lovely atmosphere here on a sunny pirates day 😎

Nice pub had a couple games of pool and had a football table as well, beer was good

Not the cheapest Pepsi tasted strange

Very disappointed to find that you don't have a ramp for wheelchair access in spite of the notice in the window to say that you have one!! Discrimination??

Love this place always friendly always have a fantastic time

Great pub with good prices and a good selection of beers. The band were brilliant 🤘

Nice enough pub in great location. Only popped in for a quick drink on a hot day. Wouldn't choose to stay longer as kids playing on the floor and clientele using foul language unnecessarily. Perhaps we should have sat outside

Lovely oldie world pub friendly staff and good choice of beers

Great place for a beer and great live bands on Sunday night

Good pub good selection of beer and spirits and nice little beer garden

Very loud music on band nights, if you like that sort of thing!

I waited at the bar for 25 minutes to be served before leaving for not being served, awful experience! Couldn't rate lower...

This pub tends to get very busy and sometimes a bit rowdy.

Very friendly staff and locals. Enjoyed myself. Highly recommend

A lovely pub along Hastings Old Town. Seats inside and out and a great character. Would recommend. Gets packed out in the summer 🌞

Really friendly service and team, great selection of spirits. Looking forward to seeing you again on our next trip from South London :)

Great music and very friendly regulars who make it fun. Newcomers made to feel welcome. Recommend it highly.

Not bad, haven't been here for a long time. Seemed ok.

Good atmosphere, also has a pool table.

We decided to go there just for 1 drink after long hike on the hills but instead we stayed for some good 7hs. We felt such a great hospitality especially from their staff. It was absolutely wonderful the entire time - great music selection (we had the chance to pick a few songs), lovely atmosphere & also the prices were good. Dogs are very welcome and if you decide to go with your fury babies they'd be surrounded with plenty of attention & cuddles. My dog Max had been treated like a prince with some nice tasty treats which made his experience extra special. Absolutely top night! We went back the following day after our 2nd hike & stayed for a couple of hours before our trip back to London. It was also pleasant and lovely! Highly recommend to everyone who visit Hastings and St. Leonards.

Would go there there or my friend and family tge woman who lives in there is very rude to people

Very good pub offering free xmas roast dinner on xmas day to people who r on there own good atmosphere and friendly staff

Lovely wood fire. Friendly staff

it o.k. Traditional pub . does what it says on the tin .

Good selection of drinks, nice atmosphere, heaters over the outside seating

Very very friendly and fun atmosphere, best staff members, big pub, good music and theres pool. Big outdoors area for when place gets too crowded, close to lots of food places and a cash point. Drinks are great and its even better on a saturday night!

The best Sunday roasts in Hastings and the staff are so welcoming 😃

Good place to go decent landlord prices not bad

Brilliant atmosphere, great drinks on tap, outdoor seating. Couldn't ask for more from a seaside pub

Lovely pub in the old town hastings staff very friendly. in and outside dining at very good prices with a nice cool drink with over head shading outside (children friendly accompanied with an adult) location just across from the seafront. Nice views of east hill there also nice seafood stool & cafe right next door... highly Recommend 5 stars ***** (I Always give a honest trusted review with over 6 million + views on Google)

Totally incredible music pianist fiddle 🎻 player and guitarist

staff are rude and Are showing inappropriate pictures

Old fashion pub. I always use this pub when I get to Hastings because it opens in the morning and the rest only open at midday.

Lovely pub, great staff, reasonable prices for drinks! Had an amazing time there on Friday night with a DJ playing a range of music and had loads of fun dancing the night away!

Love this place staff always friendly , dj at weekends ! Good fun

Good seafront pub with a decent selection of beers and very welcoming. However the pool table was pretty awful, not level and one of the centre pockets was completely out of alignment. Better than the ones in the Arcades though! Extra star if they sorted the table out.

Great pub great atmosphere always a good night

Pool. Drinks. Inside and outside seating. Perfect location for old town. Toilets very small and no light. Looks like main customers are young. Some very friendly regulars. Bar staff polite and helpful. Floors are very sticky and wet. A good stop off but wouldn't stay for evening drinks because of crowd, toilet and floor issues

Great staff, friendly, polite efficient service 👍

DJ played some bangers! Managed to get a good little dance sesh in,drinks not too expensive and staff attentive 😃👍

The bar maid was fab, good punters there, had fun, food we didn't eat but if we did we had to order next door? Nice local pub x

Good atmosphere, very busy. Ok if you don't want to sit down as limited seating. Good place to watch bands

Must stop place on our trip to Hastings.

Atrocious food and the service don’t recommend

Amazing pub and people . I had a fab birthday. Thank you 😊

Good location, nice staff, good beer = Great pub

A good little pub with a friendly atmosphere and they serve a decent pint of Guinness. We were able to sit outside even though it was a cold day because the seats outside are an excellent sun trap!

Can't really fault the pub. Reasonable prices, range of drinks, dance floor and a pool table. Staff are pretty efficient. You get a fair share of idiots go in there on a Saturday night but that isn't the pub's fault!

Very friendly staff.. great atmosphere

Friendly staff. Really like this pub

Calamari was chewy but rest was good soup was good

Not bad pub, not great beer selection, food system average, portion size small! Pool table, sky sports news on

Great beer, friendly staff (and Bella the dog). Excellent location. Only negative is some locals at end of bar using f... and c... every other word. Bit awkward with young children.

Too many aggressive customers. Fights constantly breaking out!

Lovely pub in Hastings to sit and watch the world go by. Great service and a good choice of beers

Hey, let's go down the Trader? Not quite, but hosts and nurtures some great music.

Love it here ! Been a few times now, and I find it to be a happy place. Will always come back here when I'm in town x

Nice place to grab a beer in the hot sunshine

I always go in The Trader when in the Old Town. Great selection of beers and always lively.

Great pub, friend and clean. Good beer and has the shops attached for seafood ice cream. Great choice right on the seafront.

Staff are friendly, dog friendly too , pub dog 'Baxter 'well behaved !!!!! A bit of a pain having to go elsewhere ( eg. Another business) to order food....but would still return!!!!

Lovely staff, even when they are busy.

Nice place if weather permits to sit outside and people watch.

Good old fashioned pub friendly staff

Lovely staff, just a bit run down and loos need alot of attention

Nice place, good fresh seafood kiosk .

Good pub on the seafront happy friendly staff

Great bar staff, especially Kyle, looks after us all! Good selection of drinks - including cocktails on tap! reasonable prices, great entertainment, nice outdoor seating areas, traditional sticky floor and soggy beer mats - love it !

Good food. Good service by friendly people.

Lovely place, friendly staff, good food

Really good place to have a drink

Great experience of a night out really enjoyed myself

One of the best places for fast food in Hastings.

What a gem of a pub. This is what I've been missing. Very friendly staff

Great pub staff very helpful and friendly, dog friendly. Drinks at a reasonable price.

Nice meal and a decent pint V Good

Great little pub. Awesome view of Hastings seafront fairground and great seaside atmosphere.

Good place to have a pint in the sun.

Packed and very confusing. You don't know if it's normal or table service, you order drink with waiter, then you need to go and order your food with cashier, there are 3 windows and you do t know where to go. Long time waiting for food and not tasty, fat and oily!

Lovely pub staff are very welcoming and friendly good location opposite the arcades

Couldn't get served , may try again later/another day

Great food Great service Great staff Great place 👍please do a takeaway service to Ipswich

Good pub with great ,helpful staff !!!

Perfect for drinks & all the seafood you could want ......in the sun 🙂

Lots of table and chairs outside for outside service only, prompt and polite table service.

Quite noisy but plenty of staff and doormen to sort out any issues, But definitely needs more outside heaters.

One of my go to pubs in Hastings.Staff are always very friendly as are the locals.
