The best restaurants in East Dean Wealden South East

We were the first through the door on Mother's Day, looking for a light breakfast before travelling home. What a great place! Everything was exactly as it should be. The cafe was spotlessly clean. The view of the downs and the famous Tiger Inn through the large front window was exceptional. The food was fresh and great quality. The coffee was excellent. But best of all was the service. Despite it being 09:30 on a Sunday the family that owns and runs the cafe were bright and cheerful. They served us as if we were regulars with smiles and the odd joke or two. Great job all of you. In the time it took us to eat our breakfast, several other people turned up and were made equally welcome, including 2 adorable dogs. Our only regret is that we live so far away that it will be a while before we return. But return we shall whenever we are in the area. Thanks again for a great time.

An excellent menu with options for meat eaters, vegetarians & vegans. We had the veggie breakfast option. A filling and generous plateful of deliciousness served with chunky toast xxx THE BEST breakfast xxx

Such a charming little place. The staff seem to know everyone by name so obviously a regular clientele. Such a shame it will close on 21st. I’m sure it will be missed as seems like a real community hub

Lovely cafe with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The coffee was rich and smooth, and the cakes were absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. Best of all, the view of nature from the cafe was stunning — a perfect spot to relax and unwind.

Very friendly, Thai Food delicious and good service

My wife was craving for Thai food so went here after a recommendation from local people, food was great, nice view, definitely recommend, thanks

As a stop gap from our hike, this amazing little place was a very welcome sight. We sat outside in the beautiful garden terrace with its own “tiki bar” area. Staff were all super friendly and helpful, even when we decided to change seats! The food! Wow! Seriously nice, great service too. Highly recommend this pub, will definitely be back to visit!

This is my favorite tea shop. I love the rose cake and the scones are my favorite. They are so delicious. I want to go there every day. I am happy every time I visit here with my husband and my dog. The atmosphere is comfortable and the cake is delicious. The taste of the tea is good.

Highly recommended. Two ladies offering a friendly welcome & delicious cream teas & sandwiches. And own car park too at ///tile.path.lend

Gorgeous blonde at the till was super friendly, what a cutie, you took my breath away, I wish I had asked for your number or your Instagram

Good airy place. Excellent food.

The Lamb was fatty and tough also luke warm. Roast Potatoes had microwave taste and cold . We reported the above to the waitress but no management came to see us. As it was a family celebration did not want to create a scene. Overall very poor family experience.

We love 3 hours away but we love coming here once a year for a hike. The food is always delicious. Yes it’s a little bit pricey but for the location and the atmosphere I am happy to pay that little bit more. They have heaters and blankets outside which was a nice touch. Thank you.

As a local, I visit here fairly regularly. But really only because it is 'handy' and visitors want to try it. Last visit on Easter Saturday evening was appalling. Really busy (which is good) but only 1 guy serving at the bar, so was constant queueing. Had a table booked to eat, but was sharply told we had missed it- apparently it was an hour earlier and they couldn't now accommodate us! I wouldn't mind, but had already spoken to the bar guy about it and said I'd be back nearer our booking time. And then we had been sitting under his nose, trying to pass the time until our table booking. Horrible service and won't be back any time soon.

Only had coffee at this time but we will be back to try the food soon.
