The best restaurants serving British food in Eastern Rother Rother South East

Fantastic staff and B&B . Stayed for 1 night the accommodation was lovely very clean and well decorated. We took our two dogs and they were made to feel special ( the breakfast sausage for the dogs was great our dogs loved it ) . Our breakfast was very tasty and well presented. The honest bar was another great idea and sat by the inglenook fire with our glass of wine was a nice end the the evening . We stayed in a suite upstairs with a beautiful view and our dogs sat for ages by the french doors watching the rabbits 😂😂😂. Overall will definitely go back for longer next time .

Cheap tasting drinks and greasy food, makes Sids cafe from only fools and horses look like a 5 star establishment. Will not be going back! Better food in a classier establishment available five minutes further down harbour road at The Point.

We had a very poor experience. A few tips to the new owners and staff: • try greeting your customers and offering them a table • don’t wait 15 minutes to clear all the messy crockery and left-over food from the last customers off the table • don’t keep customers waiting 30 minutes for their drinks and then come back to the table and without apologising ask for their drink order again • don’t keep customers waiting over an hour for their food and then come back to the table and without apologising ask for their food order again • if you have made a whole family wait an hour and twenty minutes for their brunch, which came fifty minutes after their drinks, perhaps offer them some free drinks to actually go with their food • try pro-actively apologising for appalling service and making us late • try saying thankyou and/or goodbye afterwards Just terrible.

Amazing little find where the locals go . Food outstanding and staff super friendly . The singer put the dot on the i . Would highly recommend a+++++

Disappointing evening - we were looking forward to our night out at the Owl as it had been recommended. We asked whether we could bring our 2 teenage kids and were reassured that this was fine - pub was not busy but we were sat in a room at the back with 2 other families with small children … there was no music on (unlike the rest of the pub) so the room lacked atmosphere and the other children were noisy - it was like sitting in a nursery and like second class citizens. Staff didn’t even come in very often so didn’t check we had drinks when we’d finished them or that food was ok. Shame as it’s expensive and the food was good but we stayed for one course and left to get dessert and a second drink elsewhere as it wasn’t relaxing / enjoyable. When you have older kids and have ‘done’ that noisy small children stage it’s disappointing to be separated into a room specifically for small children. Either make it no children / higher age limit / have areas for older and younger kids. As we left we did see a child (younger than mine) in the bar area so I’m not sure why we were seated in the back room- I think the landlady could have worked out we may not have enjoyed the back room when she seated us.

We had planned to walk in the neighbouring nature reserve and use their cafe but it was heaving due to half term. We decided to drive to Winchelsea beach and access the reserve from there. So we stopped for lunch here instead. It was busy and it didn’t have picture windows/ view but it had a better menu. There was more choice at reasonable prices. The staff were welcoming and thanked us for our custom. From now on this will be our cafe of choice when walking in the reserve.

I’m relieved to see this establishment has closed its doors. My experience there was one of the worst I've ever encountered, especially considering I live in the area and never expected to face such blatant racism in my own community. The owners, Jimmy and Carol, were never friendly right from the start, and it's astonishing that they managed to operate this restaurant for so long. I had often walked past it without giving it much thought, but this time I was with a few friends and thought we would give it a try. Unfortunately, the way we were treated was nothing short of appalling. We stood in the middle of the dining area for at least 15 minutes without even a greeting. It’s hard to believe they could miss us, as there were four of us waiting. The waitstaff glanced at us several times but never made the effort to approach. I can’t help but wonder if our Asian descent played a role in their indifference. Despite the available seating, we chose to wait out of respect. I sincerely hope they never reopen a restaurant. If they do, I hope they learn a valuable lesson in customer service.

To be honest I had no real idea of what The Bell would be like when I booked it. The location was convenient for a function we were attending elsewhere. What a revelation, this place is amazing. You have to consider that the "project " is ongoing, but this doesn't impact on anything. The standards are great. Service, welcome and the whole experience was amazing. While entering the bedroom, the standard of which it had been decorated and furnished to was just way above what you could have expected. Only down side was that we were only staying the one night.

Excellent friendly service and superb drinks. We arrived at this pub, felt very welcome, warm and enjoyed the wine - thank you

A brilliant quiz evening hosted here on Wednesday, food was delicious, served hot. Spotted Dick was amazing. Phil runs a good restaurant, everyone is lovely and friendly.

The Gallivant is a wonderful oasis on the South Coast , it felt like the Hamptons for my short stay. I had a great yoga class and ate at Harrys twice , the food was delicious and perfectly cooked. Its a wonderful time of year to go and the staff (special thanks to Lindsey) were very kind and accommodating of my dog who loved the garden and exploring. I do intend to return as soon as I can.

My family and I had two excellent meals here over our weekend break. Our first meal was on the Friday night after a long drive from home. We enjoyed it so much we booked again for the Sunday Lunch which was amazing. As well as the food being fabulous, we received excellent service and hospitality from Matt, Lisa and Lily who could not have been more helpful. Thank you all you all so much.

great shop friendly owner <3 absolutely fab! Great prices and good products - make sure you pop in during your stay x

Went out for a family dinner there was 14 of us and what a service we had, the waiter called Leo wow what a very polite young man and nothing was to much for him getting anything we asked for.. couldn't thank him enough.

£12 for 2 0.3bottles of Stell Artois and £6 for 2 sausages for the dog! It was a birthday celebration so my sister paid the prices but it’s very sad that such a great location is abused by the owners!
