The Counting House
Pub added by elizabeth mcgrawEastbourne
BN21 1ND

Average Rating: 
An excellent beer garden, located in a dip in the Old Town that provides shelter from the coastal breezes. Not a great choice of beer (just two ales and a cider), but the White Brewing Campany's 'White Gold' from nearby Bexhill tasted just fine. Friendly staff, and some good value bar food too. (NB - Review dates from April 2009.)

An old building away from the town centre. Inside is one bar with a side room (see pics) A couple of real ales on offer.

This is a lovely looking pub that was apparently built in 1588. As with all old pubs there are a couple of low beams, so if you're six foot+ watch your head on the way to the toilet as one of these beams nearly took mine off.
The barmaid was very friendly and polite, but the barman needs to lighten up a bit and maybe try smiling. At the very least he could acknowledge the customers when they say hello or thank you. Summer Lightening and Doombar were available alongside two standard lagers.
I think that the main attraction of this pub is the well laid out and cared for beer garden. It was a great location for the wedding reception that was taking place whilst I was there.
The next time I'm in Eastbourne I will visit again.
