The best restaurants in Central St Leonards Hastings South East

This is an incomparable, little gem of a restaurant . Top quality, interesting and imaginative dishes all created by a very talented chef using locally sourced produce makes it difficult to decide what you would like! Memorable experience for someone who is coeliac too. Good sized portions and amazing choice = excellent value for money. Don’t forget to try the Appasiomento wine - a true find. Front of house service is relaxed, faultless and friendly making the overall experience excellent. We always pre-book to avoid disappointment.

Babs Are you planning to open up again somewhere else in St Leonards/Hastings area? Best wishes.

After a walk along the seafront we spotted you and thought the cafe looked very inviting so popped in. we are so glad we did! We had a lovely brunch, my partner had smoked mackerel on toast with poached egg and I had the prosciutto, asparagus and poached eggs on toast, both were delicious. The Bloody Mary was served just how I like it with myself being able to add as much spice etc as I like. We took some Bakewell tart away with us to eat on the walk back and our only mistake was getting one to share as honestly it was the best one I’ve had, and it was still warm so perfect for this cold weather! service was impeccable, all the staff were friendly and welcoming, seriously we couldn’t fault it and will definitely come again.

There is coffee everywhere now, but this is excellent and carefully made. The same care goes for their pastries, cakes, sandwiches and ice cream.

Love this place, been coming since it opened. Amazing bagels - the crispy capers were a revelation. Friendly service, also dog friendly- can’t recommend Sleeper highly enough.

This place is epic. The food is AMAZING!!! all made in house including the cakes and sweet treats. Nadia the owner is the warmest host- its like you are a family friend visiting their home. I am currently eating my way through the menu and haven't found a dish i don't love. Please go in and try you wont be disappointed!!!!

Lovely lovely little shop with great choice and good value bits for crafts and children. I bought a variety of items including peacock feathers and many little toys for my 2 year old. Please support this lovely gem of a shop 💕

First Rate. Wonderful staff. Very accommodating and helpful.

Great place to grab a vegan lunch. Great sandwich and tostie selection, and some good reading material whilst you wait. Not to be missed!

Love the food at Laya. Took my mate who'd never been before for his birthday today and he was blown away. Plenty of options for vegetarians/pescetarians like me as well as meat dishes. Try the aubergine and chickpea curry - incredible smoky, tamarind-y flavour. Also a big fan of the veggie biryani and the masala dosa. Everything is so flavourful. And there's still a lot of things on the menu I want to try, so I'll keep coming back.

Brilliant the food is always amazing with a brilliant selection and advice on wine highly recommend

Amazing breakfast baguette of bacon, sausage and egg. Best value around. Paul the owner is an amazing guy

This a beautiful hidden gem which we can and will always remember and recommend! The location is marvellous, just a short walk up the high street from the station. The outside is cosy and welcoming and once inside the restaurant you are greeted and welcomed with hospitality and kindness typical for the Filipino culture. The restaurant has amazing food and I would have eaten all day. Delicious, healthy soul food. Excited to see how the restaurant will look like during Christmas times. If you have not been … GO GO GO !!

Just delightful! Bring on the Chateau Musar I say! We’ll be back for sure. Thank you!

Excellent air quality. I feel like I’m on a deserted island with ana amazing fresh breeze it feels like you’re an asthmatic outside and every breath is like an asthma puffer inhale. You have to experience this for yourself. Incredible.
