The Belgian Cafe - Eastbourne

I wonder how the Belgian cafe is not rated 5 stars out of 5! I have been eating at this lovely place on regular occasions since 2016 whenever I visit Eastbourne. The sea food is of high quality and the dishes I have tried were always delicious, tasty and very fresh. Good portions too. My favourite one so far is the succulent sea food linguine But the moules frites marinière are great and even a simple goat cheese salad was very good. The staff are always very friendly kind and smiling. Merci au chef et aux très gentilles dames qui travaillent dans ce bel endroit! See you next year!

Booked the bar area for a Leaving do. Great atmosphere and staff were so kind and helpful. Would recommend highly!

If I could give zero stars I would. I was stood in the queue and watched a gentleman purchase a pint of gold digger. When it was our turn I asked for the same but was declined. She then said it was her friend she served and she knows them. So I politely tried ordering the Belgian triple which was also declined even though I have ordered this several times. I find this appalling that you do mates rates on beers in front of other costumers then have the ghoul to decline others. They have a sign behind the bar that states drink good beer with your friends, I'm clearly not one of their friends but I will be telling all of my friends not to go there. It's a shame as I used to enjoy coming here but I will now certainly be avoiding.

We were three for a Friday lunch. We've been a few times over a number of years try to fit in a lunch when we're in Eastbourne. It was quiet when we arrived the weather was very hot that day. We opted for a light lunch of mussels without french fries, though we did order a couple of sides of french bread. You really can't eat mussels without french bread! Two of us chose traditional Moules Marinieres , delicious one order of Thai Green curry style Moules.....these were delicious, but as was pointed out, extremely chilly hot. All the dishes were small, which was just right for us that day. We can't fault this establishment, it's been a mainstay for many years and is still as good as we expected. The beers on offer were interesting, a big choice, but sadly they were waiting for a delivery of I P A that day. The restaurant has had a facelift, which was needed. We didn't use the facilities this time. So we hope they've been upgraded too.

Really enjoy going here trying all the different draughts. Foods really tasty too.
