Lunchtime after a morning on the beach. We just had to come back for the first day of their Seafood Week. We both enjoyed an excellent meal.

To the beach and then lunch. A shame there was no Turners but the Harveys was in good nick. Excellent Moroccan chicken to eat.

Another visit to the beach and lunch afterwards. We caught their fish week and was so tempted by the menu decided to have starters and main courses. All were very well cooked and presented..

This pub is handy for Cooden Beach which is dog friendly. We sat in the garden with the dogs and they are also allowed in the bar. Fairly busy with most people eating from an extensive and varied menu. Fish features strongly and most dishes look to be prepared on the premises. The Jerk Pork Belly I had certainly was and was very tasty.

Not very busy when we went in about 12.30 on a Tuesday lunchtime but gradually became more populated with both drinkers and diners.

Website.

The pub is found in Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, TN39 4JE.

Tucked away on the A259 on Little Common Road into Bexhill. Interior has a 1970s feel to it and with the clientele on the day we visited you seem to be going back in a time warp. The food, however, is bang up to date English with an oriental sort of twist. A bar with two restaurant areas, a beer garden and a large car park.

We have visited this pub 8 times, seen 7 different beers and tried 4 of them.
