The best restaurants serving British food in East Dean Wealden South East

Lovely breakfast, perfect spot over the village green. Delish coffee and nice array of deli snacks and pastries to take away on your walk! Will definitely go back for wine and ice cream 😍

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

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

Very Disappointing We arrived here on a Monday (20 Nov ) lunchtime to be greeted by the waitress who guided us to our reserved table. We had our dog so was very happy to be put in the corner where no one would be passing. The waitress didn’t seem confidant on the tablet she was putting our order into. Later she returned to the table to ask again what one our drinks were and to inform us that the food we ordered (venison) was no longer available. When our food arrived, which was in reasonable time, There was a problem with all the main courses. The ale battered fish was cooked crisp however the inner batter was undercooked and pasty . Very thick. The burger was overcooked and dry. Our dog was a little restless and I walked her towards the bar to stretch her legs. I noticed some dog treats on the bar and asked the lady behind (landlord) if I could have one for the dog. She looked at me as if I shouldn’t have been there. Please do not waste your money here. It is such a shame after the place being closed for so long. Unfortunately the people running this haven’t got a clue and sadly it will join the other victims in the pub grave yard.

A really warm welcome, lovely range of cakes and bakes, excellent value for money.

We had a family meal here this evening. I really don’t know where to start, but about as bad as it gets - Fawlty Towers would be an under-statement. Staff attitude unbelievable, the high point being dropping a plate of fish down my brother in law, and rather than apologising, accusing him of lying that it went down his back. They need only have sniffed it ! Utterly disgraceful.

This country pub had been on our list for ages and so as it was my birthday weekend we booked for Sunday lunch. We'd checked the menu before booking so we knew the roast was pricey at £24 for the roast beef. We usually pay between £16 and £20 elsewhere. Unfortunately, when it arrived it was disappointing. There was plenty of thinly sliced beef but I found it very fatty and chewy. There were fewer vegetables than expected, half a carrot, 3 very small, very hard roast potatoes and a pile of kale. The Yorkshire pud was large but mainly soggy. The gravy was delicious. Also elements of the dish were less warm than others. The pub is lovely and had a good drinks menu but we were seated in the bar area and had to listen to staff discussing their rotas at length. Perhaps if we'd been in the main restaurant area or outside we'd have had a better experience. Maybe consider your portion sizes especially the veg. We didn't stay for desert.

Came to this cafe for a breakfast meal in the Seven Sisters country park. Very tasty food and some refreshing drinks. Would recommend for breakfast!

There are about 8 staff in the cafe, however, the time taken to .prepare drinks that are hot was insufferably long. Staff perfectly nice but pretty much ineffective. Most places make your drink while you wait but they seemed to have a ridiculous wait time, mine was 12 minutes. This meant that my "kept warm in a cabinet" pasty was luke warm at best by the time my coffee was ready, and I had to ask for it to be exchanged for a hot one, adding.to the waiting.time for those behind me in the queue. There was also an issue with dhot drinks served in take away cups for "outsde" although I explained I was sitting in the National trust seating area, I was not allowed a china cup, because they " get left outside". I did point out that there were many customers leaving their crockery and cutlery on tables inside as they left and they were not being.penalised, the staff member explained it was National Trust Policy.....stupid policy!
