   I am a regular visitor and this visit was a great disappointment. The service was very poor. The toilets were disgusting and the team were not coordinated I shall hesitate before I take my friends again

   Food was slow to come , requested Burgers to be Medium but were very well done. Order 2nd drinks when meal arrive, chased up 15 mins later told order never placed, so told them not to bother, then after finished meal drinks turned up. Very disappointing overall

   Very good for our large family party of 12. Nice big table with plenty of space around. Food excellent. Service maybe a bit slow but it was busy and we weren't in a hurry. Would thoroughly recommend it.

    Our brunch at Bill's was a mixed experience. We found the ambience pleasant and the service great - but sadly the food was not great. We had brunch and although the menu was very promising - the food itself was poor. The poached eggs were hard and cold, the halloumi hard and tasteless and the avocado somehow watery and sour tasting. The coffee was good thank goodness. We felt we got poor value for money and don't think we would return for brunch at this standard.

    Food was well presented, kitchen was efficient. Lobster linguine portion was small with only one prawn in the whole dish, not worth the money. Was initially impressed with service until after mains, we sat for over half an hour with no one to clear table or order desserts from. Toilet area needs some attention.

    Great relaxed family lunch. Had set menu. Food delicious - service spot on. We're there for 2hours & did not feel rushed & right amount of pause time between ordering & courses.

    Staff are always lovely here and attentive. Food is generally well presented and delicious. It has a nice atmosphere. I could see my ceaser salad wilting under the hot light for ten mins or so while the rest of our party's meals were being cooked and plated so consequently the salad and dressing was warm/hot. I ate the chicken but was given a refund in view of the disappointing salad. The toilets need a thorough deep clean and I appreciate that the building is old and difficult to adapt but a disabled person in a wheelchair had a pretty difficult journey with a carer to access the loos via a deep step.

    I had a very good haloumi salad, daughter had vegan lasagne which she said was rather small, husband enjoyed his steak and chips. The profiteroles were great. Very noisy, they really don't need background rock music as well. There was a 12 1/2% service charge added to our bill, which was a bit cheeky. Service was good.

    Menu selection very disappointing. Food average. Chilly draught (eating indoors). Been to several Bill's in the area. A shame that its spiritual home was so disappointing. Would not visit this branch again.

    We felt we had to fight to get served , whilst the people at next table arrived after us but were served first. We even paid our bill before our coffee arrived.

    If I’m spending £15 for a few tiny meatballs and potatoes I would at least expect it not to be cold in the middle

    The food serving time was slow. This had nothing to do with the waiting staff and clearly with the kitchen. We didn’t mind except the car park only allowed 2 hours wait and we went 20 minutes extra

    Enjoyed our meal. Friendly Service, but the only reason I’ve marked it down slightly is that we had to ask a few times before we could place our order. Paying the bill also seemed to take far longer than normal.

    Food good - noise levels appalling! Unnecessary loud banging tuneless music and too many tables with too many shouting people. A cacophany of unnessary noise. Would only consider eating here again if able to sit outside in peace and relative quiet. A stresssful experience. Although food good, very limited and unimaginative menu with far too much meat and burgers. Oh if only we could have the original Bills back. No comparison.

    Service was not the best unfortunately. Usually Bills is really nice but they seemed to be short staffed and waitress kept overlooking us! Had to remind her we needed the dessert menu and then find someone to print the bill. Food was good but noticeably the meals had less content, steak just came with chips nothing else on the plate. Luckily we ordered a side salad otherwise we would have been disappointed

    We went to Bills for Mothers day and took our and my parents. The service at the Lewes Bills has been haphazard perviously at this Bills, but yesterday it was impeccable. Our waitress couldn't do enough for us and made our dinner very special The new menu is very good, there are lots of new things and it made it hard to choose what to order. Very good revamp of the menu and great service. Thanks for making the evening so wonderful
