Harden's survey result
Summary
Fans proclaim the “best food in Eastbourne”, at this “fun” and “buzzy” subterranean wine bar, restaurant and bottle shop, whose décor is enlivened by a pink neon Hunter S Thompson quote. On the food front, there’s “something for everyone” (namely small and large plates), while the “ever-changing, excellent wine list” features English bottles and rare wines by the glass.
Summary
“An enthusiasts’ wine list does full justice to the very much above average bistro food” at this “restaurant, wine bar and wine shop offering small and large plates accompanied by your selection from the 200 vintages”. “There's always a real buzz about the place and the owner's infectious sense of fun guarantees you have a great night out”. Beers and coffees are on hand if you don’t wish to partake of the grape.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
