• Pub • Pett

Booked 3 times today

In sleepy Fairlight, on the edge of the Firehills, The Cove is an independently run freehouse serving locals, wanderers and gastronauts alike. Halfway between Hastings and Rye, The Cove is the perfect stop after a walk across the local beaches and coastal paths of East Sussex. We have a fire for the winter nights, a garden for summer days, and a friendly bar waiting to welcome you. Originally a hotel, the building sat empty for several years until 2022, when the Cove was renovated, restored and reopened with a new lease of life. It has quickly gained a reputation for excellent, elevated pub food with local chef and restauranteur Nick Hales leading the kitchen.In 2023 it was featured on The Times 50 Best Summer Pubs, and given a glowing review by Grace Dent in The Guardian Observer.

Very enjoyable meal. Main courses reasonably priced but desserts on high side at £8.50. The food was tasty and beautifully presented. The two waitresses were outstanding, both quiet, calm and very attentive. It is a small restaurant so noise from other tables is hard to avoid especially when other diners are quite loud.
