SquareMeal Review of East Beach Cafe

This breezy café caused quite a stir when it morphed from a seafront kiosk into Thomas Hetherwick’s bold single-storey design. The owners – mother and daughter team Jane and Sophie Wood – open for breakfasts, snacks and teas (wonderful homemade cakes), but the place is worth investigating further than that.

The menu and ethos – sustainable fish, seasonal and local produce – also yield admirable lunch and dinner dishes: classics such as potted shrimps or beer-battered fish & chips are always available, while more ambitious offerings might include guinea fowl with bubble & squeak, confit and roasted chicken with pistachio terrine, rigatoni with goats’ cheese or a quiche of three Sussex cheeses with salad.

Finish with orange polenta cake or pomegranate mousse. A short, well-constructed wine list includes local bubbly. Service is a delight.

Good to know

The East Beach Cafe got off to a good start, but needs to avoid complacency. On a recent visit we discovered that appetisers were no longer on the menu – as an encouragement to order more expensive starters?
