Fish and seafood is their speciality. All sourced in Hastings, so you can't get fresher. Hearty Spanish fish and chorizo stews, soft shell crab brioche, oysters, mouse, sharing seafood platters, hot or cold. Simple cafe interior with outdoor terrace too. Informal but good service.

If its a steak or burger that floats your boat then go to the Two Bulls. Absolutely brilliant. About ten minutes walk from the flat in Old Town, but so worth it. And the walk will ensure an appetite to do it justice.

This little bar tucked away in Old Hastings is well worth tracking down. Whether you choose lunch or dinner, the food is very accessible and tasty. You can take time to savour the homely atmosphere here, because food is prepared to order and doesn't fly to your table. But it doesn't disappoint. Live music events too from time to time.

Catch the West Hill lift from George Street, up to the cliffs above the town. Sustained by tea and cake from the cafe, blow the cobwebs away with a brisk walk across the top and then down into Old Town. Here you can take in the ancient cobbled streets and quaint history that made Old Hastings the perfect setting for the TV series, Foyle's War, based on the books by Anthony Horowitz.
