Bibendum

The service was superb, and staff were extremely attentive. We had the veggie roast, and the wellington was probably the best I’ve had anywhere. Very impressed and will definitely go back.

Was visiting Eastbourne. Friendly, attentive staff and well presented, tasty food.

Went for lunch on a Tuesday. Good attentive service from the guy that served us. A relaxed atmosphere and felt comfortable there. Food was OK. I had the chicken burger and thought the meat was a bit tough - needed to be more tender - so in retrospect I wouldn't order this again on a future visit.

The roast was perfection so tasty and plenty of it , gravy that was nice and thick and full of flavour , it was divine 🥰 The guy who served us was lovely and friendly very relaxed and also informative , i cannor fault any of it

Best roast dinner in Eastbourne! I love this pub the atmosphere is a proper drinking pub but with an amazing restaurant run brilliantly by the manager and great bar staff, food was exceptional and we love all of you, be back very soon x

When we arrived, we were greeted with a smile and seated promptly. We were recommended the weeks' specials and a few menu items which suggests that the menu changes seasonally. The food was exceptional (they had haggis which was amazing and the roast dinners we have heard about were great also). After we had finished our meal we weren't rushed out the door like some venues. Instead we stayed for another drink. We will be coming again!

The door in the restuarant going outside is banging very loudly so it's affecting your visit for a nice dinner out!

Excellent food and great service. The only suggestion is that I would like my food to arrive really hot as it can get cold quickly.

Always impressed by the food and service at Bibendum and this visit was no exception

Delicious Sunday Roast, gorgeous desserts fab service great eating venue

Fantastic friendly staff - gave us time to select food from the amazing choice - but also attentive- we had beer battered cod - it was so tasty 😋- will definitely recommend and return

First visit as new to area. Thoroughly enjoyed meal and atmosphere. Booking was easy too and staff friendly.

Very welcoming. We were given lots of choices lovely food!

We paid £184 deposit and this was not accounted for in the final bill. On another note our main was inedible the fish was dangerously off. So we left. Overbooked and understaffed?

I have never eaten here before but have been to a venue here. Bibendum is near to where my mum lives and as she’s 83 I thought it’d be nice to book here for Christmas Day 2025. I really didn’t know what to expect, the food was fantastic! The portion sizes were very generous. All courses were delicious, a ham terrine and bread, the terrine was so fresh,chunky,hammy in a great way with some lovely veg in it too and some fresh warm bread. The celeriac soup was super tasty. We all had a turkey roast. It was also very generous and great for someone with a big appetite. Lots of lovey vegetables not overcooked. Cheese boards and an amazing orange sorbet. It was all really tasty,just a side note on the cheese board there was the pevensy blue cheese, it wasn’t too strong and was creamy.Now to the staff who where so lovely and friendly, they couldn’t do enough for us. It was really busy and loud but all the staff were happy at all times and happy to help. We will definitely come again. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon.

Friendly service, good food, great atmosphere. Thanks for making my daughter’s birthday special….

Great food & friendly staff, will definitely eat here again.

Food quality was poor. Had a chicken & leek pie with peas & mash. There was just way too much gravy and the food was totally overpowered by it; I couldn’t taste the pie other than the gravy. Peas were quite hard and mash potatoes was lumpy.

We had the 3-course Christmas lunch, and unfortunately the puddings (chocolate cheesecake and Christmas pudding) were disappointing

Whole evening with really great but it’s the staff that make it even more special

Fabulous evening spent with family at Bibendum last night. the service was exceptional and the food was delicious. Very generous portions. Great location in the centre of Eastbourne. Highly recommended!

Lovely food , excellent service . Would definitely recommend 5*

Expect tables of people to make noise at this time of year. Would thoroughly recommend & we have booked again!

25 years since our last visit and it didn't disappoint! Very welcoming reception and superb starters, followed by two perfect main courses. Wonderful to see our old neighbour clearly going from strength to strength. Has to be one of the best, if not the best, restaurant in Eastbourne. Thank you.

Lovely food, excellent service and great range of drinks (both alcoholic and non).

Fantastic service and really great food, will definitely be back.

Great Sunday lunch, fresh vegetables and enormous Yorkshire puddings. Can recommend the cheesecake and tiramisu. Staff were delightful and efficient. The surroundings were a little tired and in need of an up date. Would definitely recommend 😊

Popped in to try selection of meals prior to confirming wedding booking / well wedding booking confirmed on the service and food we experienced tonight. Friendly staff professional and the food amazing really good selection thanks for a great evening dining experience

Friendly staff and big portions. Vibe was warm, classy and modern. Really happy with our first visit to the establishment and looking forward to future dining experiences.

Friendly staff, excellent service, good sized food portions. If I had to make any criticism the potatoes could have had a bit of crunch and disappointed that we were charged 50p for extra gravy but all in all a lovely meal.

Great staff and lovely food. The staff were really helpful

Lovely visit, pie was delicious and staff were very efficient and friendly.

Brilliant food and value. We love it here. Great place to go.

The waiting staff were amazing, so professional and friendly. Would definitely return.

The service was really good. Our server was absolutely lovely. So good to have an excellent veggie roast.

Lunchtime meal with friends. All staff very friendly. Ploughmans was amazing!! Fish finger sandwiches tasty and pie of the day yummy 🙂 It’s a shame we live so far away as we’d definitely go back. Well done everyone 👍

Lovely roast dinner, good portion size, friendly staff, nice atmosphere

I booked an early dinner, and was promptly seated and served. As the night became busier, the only two waiters were kept very busy. I don't fault them, but I would have lingered for dessert, but opted to leave rather than continue to wait.

Great service and food, get together for my birthday .

Very welcoming and accommodating. Good value for money, food was excellent

Good quality food and good service pleasant atmosphere and well run with good attention

Great place, food was amazing. Staff were lovely and attentive. Highly recommended.

staff and food was great but the noise level was so load with people talking but i suppose it would be has the pub side was packed

The service was great as was the food, a good experience all round

Always a pleasure. A wedding function on but we still had great service. And food always good. Thankyou.

Nice food & drinks & very good service, Would recommend

Great Food, options and drinks and Lovely informative Staff who were very accommodating and welcoming . Will definitely be coming back

Our overall experience was good and we would go back. Attention to detail could be improved. We waited quite a long time for our food to arrive and had someone told us what the wait time was, that would have managed our expectations better. We were not offered condiments with our main meal and the chicken pie was very average.

Staff and food very good, but long wait for food.
