The best restaurants serving British food in Lewes South East

Treated ourselves on our anniversary. What a treat that was. Very well presented and food cooked to perfection. Little expensive but worth it

Been to Daisy’s a few times and cannot recommend it enough to people. Lovely food - great breakfasts and afternoon teas - fantastic choice of cakes/drinks and more and very friendly and accommodating staff. My favourite part is the view of the south downs which you can see from every seat and the relaxing atmosphere. 5 stars from me!

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

Good food and great service in a small space..! The chef is very entertaining and there are a lot of regulars.. highly recommended for the experience and a meal..!

Food good, service good. Problem with this place is its far too cold, asked for heating to be turned up only to be told the manager is not in today and she is the only one who can do it. Why do you have doors wide open right through the WINTER. Most people eating with coats on not a good experience.

The Steak and Ale Pie was the best I've had. Good beers and ciders on and the staff were great

Very busy and kind female staff member fitted us in.Outstanding food,piping hot,Massive portions.Mixed Grill,Steak pie & sharing platter all excellent.Advise to book lunch & tea time as this is a very popular food pub/hotel.Big car park.Thanks to all the staff & chef.10/10.Will definately be back when in the area.

A really lovely cafe, I hadn't seen it since it's been refurbished and it looks fresh and inviting. We had salads, quiche and the vege chilli, all excellent and obviously freshly prepared. I like the ethos of using local and sustainable suppliers too. Friendly service and the prices reasonable considering the quality.

Came across this place on the last leg of a walk on the Downs a few years back. Returned today to find all was closed down and overgrown, despite a website i ducati g to the contrary. . How on earth someone managed to submit a good review on 4th Sep is rather strange. The location and feel of the garden, with the gravel pathways and cottage type beds, was once absolutely idyllic. Not surprised it hasn't survived - the following is what I drafted back then. Pethaps I should have read the signs... "There were lots of tables and chairs to choose from, some in some very welcome shade. We were rather dirty and sweaty, so didn't really notice the standard of the furniture. We sat and recovered, reading our papers. The drinks and lunch were of very good quality and tasty, so we didn't mind the above average prices. However, the speed of service and attitude of the older woman were bad. I can't therefore give a good rating.. The place was not crowded, and we had to remind them about our order (tea, cold drinks and salad) after 30 minutes - when an adjacent table was served before us, having arrived 10 minutes or so after us. When our order was delivered, our comment was "oh, lovely, we're ready for this", to which the woman replied "oh have you been waiting - we can only work so fast in this heat you know". Clearly someone who finds it easy to make it the customer's problem. Just an apology would have done. Shall go back though, for the location, but perhaps just for a cuppa next time (would possibly be cold tho).

My sister and I attended a wreath making evening tonight at 'Little Cottage Tea Rooms and Gardens'. It was so enjoyable and I came away with a Christmas wreath! Never made one before and was quite pleased with the result (my ability was the only drawback 😄). Jo, who owns the place, was absolutely charming and it was obvious that she has her customer satisfaction at heart. Jo went above and beyond and I am sure that any experience in that delightful place will be a good one.

I have been to Frankies beach bar about a year ago. The service and food was very good. Travelled from Worthing on a beautiful day to enjoy a lunch. Was I wrong! We ordered toasted sandwiches. They were very greasy and inedible. I was told that because they had been busy a buildup of oil had built up on the grill. Greasy spoon,definitely!

I came here all the time, today I will not return the lady staff was extremely rude! Because my kids came in with 2 cans of cherry coke from the store next door ad they do not have drinks they liked or are the cans cold, I was rudely told to put them away ,so we left sp for a £1 can of coke they lost £20 in profits plus I'll never return and I'll spread the word i have my own business, and if I found out a staff member cost my business money and a customer she would be gone this is not good business.

The kind lady serving was so helpful providing us with a ramp for my mother in law to get her wheel chair into the cafe. The food and drink was great and we will definitely be going back again..

Looked up cafes for breakfast near the port and found this gem. Nothing to look at as its a porta cabin but inside its clean and the food is excellent. Thick bread and butter, great breakfasts and very reasonable prices. Love the dog but not sure everyone would appreciate the staff stroking the dog and then continuing to serve food but we love dogs and doesn't bother us. The tea and coffee were best tasted, not fancy just proper tea and coffee. Would definately recommend, parking at the rear too. Easy to walk from port or premier inn, and great value. Staff very friendly and will definitely return next trip to Newhaven.
