Re-opened after a prolonged closure
Large two bar community pub re-opened in June 2021 under new management. There is a comprehensive menu including snacks and small plates. There is a large garden which will feature barbecues and children's play equipment in summer. The pub is a 'sister pub' to the Crown & Anchor by Eastbourne's seafront.
Bombed and rebuilt after the war, this tile hung corner pub still retains its two bar layout and the off sales is still visible. On the left the entrance has two doors - the one on the right was the off sales. The public bar has a parquet floor, a bar counter with a 1950s front, the bar back counter date from the 1950s and there is a dado of fielded panelling which looks 1950s. There is a new conservatory dining room on the far left accessed via a wide doorway. The saloon bar on the right has fielded panelling to picture frame height, a 1950s brick fireplace and again the bar counter and bar back look 50s. (MS 12/2010)
Update 2012 - the bar back fittings have been replaced and there are no upper parts. The fireplace in the public bar is now a Victorian-style one and all the panelling and the saloon bar fireplace is painted cream.
