The Cuckmere Inn

Excellent food and service. Beautiful location.

Booked a table for 9 for family aging from teens to 75 yrs old....
the table was in a perfect location in the restaurant, right next to a cozy log fire..... The table itself was very clean and very well layed out.... the food and the friendly service we received made the evening a perfect one.....

There was a slight problem in that my husband ordered grilled Halloumi, which was accidentally served on someone else's plate. The waitress took it off our friend's plate and put it on my husband's. I thought that my husband should have been served a new dish of Halloumi instead of having his scraped off another plate that the person has started eating from.

Fantastic views,excellent food and service. Unfortunately was spoilt by a drunk who insisted he was the owner and was abusive to us when we left

Lovely meal and good service

Excellent very satisfied

Easy to book, excellent food and friendly staff.

Had run out of our first choice platter but it was still a nice lunch and plenty of time to stay and chat

Sadly this wasn't the best idea we had. We arrived at 17.30 on a Sunday, greeted by plates stacked 5/6 high, empty glasses on most of the tables. We thought they must have had a busy afternoon....then we looked outside! Broken glasses around tables, cigarette ends scattered and most of the tables full of empty plates.
We ordered and our food was served relatively quickly. One order was a steak, blue, when it was cut open it was medium rare, we were told that to have a blue steak it wud have to be served cold! Unbelievable!
Several people complained about the food.
Very disappointed. First family meal for a while. Waste of money.

It was very busy so the service was very slow - over an hour - this wasn't too much of a problem as we were a large party and we entertained ourselves but would have been different had we been a couple! The food was OK but we all had issues with our choices ie. not hot enough etc. We don't make The Cuckmere out first choice as we have had bad experiences in the past - it's such a shame as it gets 10 out 10 for ambience/location.
