The best restaurants in Lewes Castle Lewes South East

I know the chef who is great and skilled. Nice vibe. Low key. Check it out 🙏🏽❤️

Vegan is hard to come by. They had a fab choice and very well presented food - attention to detail was lovely. Really friendly team.

The food was delicious and healthy. I had the salad option and it was packed with variety, colour and great taste. My son had soup and fresh bread and a sausage roll. We plan to return because the food was great at a really affordable price.

The owner is an engaging, friendly character who made the entire experience of attending court a more relaxed one. Please visit and enjoy a lovely coffee

This comfortable cafe is located within the interesting needlemakers center. We had a very good flat white coffee. The surroundings are unusual and interesting for a coffee shop.

Excellent burgers, great find before the football match. Surprisingly tasty and of high quality, fresh buns and plenty of toppings. We especially enjoyed the spicy burger and nice that they have kid friendly sizes. Recommend to take away. Will be back again!

The place is really nice, but unfortunately, my avocado on toast with poached eggs was delivered cold - the eggs were probably waiting for the rest of the order to get ready before serving or were prepared beforehand. The bread used is a regular toast bread which is disappointing - for the price I would expect sourdough. The amount of avocado was good(I have paid for a bigger portion) and rocket salad was nice. The service was quick and the decor of the place was really nice.

Avoid - it will cost you! Booked weekend lunch for 1:30. Still waiting at 2pm and despite three empty tables were told there was nowhere available yet. Youth serving new arrivals was totally patronizing; control freak! Eventually served very salty soup with tiny piece of sourdough sitting in small bowl of oil. Hot drinks were barely warm and turned out to be massively over-priced. £83 for tiny lunch, lukewarm drinks in a cramped dark chilly room. Definitely not Italian. Just an expensive waste of time. Left cold, still hungry and much poorer. Zero Points for food / 'service' / 0 deg C atmosphere = NEVER AGAIN!

We were her only customers. We ordered the exact same thing and waited 40min for 2 burgers. The young lady - as nice as she was- was super ditsy and could not remember our order. She came to us after 20 min to confirm, two burgers with vegan cheese and onion chutney + 2 kimchy vegan loaded fries. Before serving she said the burgers were ready but messed up the fries, she only prepared a non-vegan versin which my partner has. I should mention that an old mate of hers was there chitchatting during that time. We were not impressed by the service, it’s poor, borderline unacceptable. She did give me a refund for the fries i never had. Food is good though. Hence the 3 stars.

This restaurant is pretentious! Over priced lack lust food. When paying we asked to remove the service charge due to freedom of choice and we were happy to tip in cash, however the manager challenged this in a confrontational way even though we explained that money is tight for us at the moment! She then did not remove the charge and made us feel so uncomfortable we just payed it! This is not cool and gave off a very hostile vibe. The food was totally overpriced and miniature so if you want to have an enjoyable and affordable pleasant dining experience don’t go here!

Visited in January for a birthday celebration. Food was excellent but service a bit patchy. We never did get one of our coffees, though they did give us a free baileys in the end! It was very busy with 2 large parties which may have contributed to the delays in service. I'd definitely go back, but maybe try a quieter evening ie not a Saturday.

I spent a lovely evening with my partner at the restaurant. The food was great, the service was good and quick, I will definitely come again.

I had the Fillet Marilyn Monroe and was blown away! So worth the price. Will have to return to have it again. Dined with 3 others and their meals were also tasty! Great atmosphere too!

Very nice staff, good interactions
