Quick info
About The Beach Kitchen
The Beach Kitchen is a small cafe in Eastbourne, at 56 Beach Rd near the seafront. Breakfast is the focus, with a full English that comes with black pudding and sausage, and vegetarian options are on the menu alongside it. The drinks list includes Yorkshire tea and a chai latte for those who want something other than coffee. The cafe opens daily and serves daytime only, so the full English is a morning and lunchtime stop rather than an evening one.

Customer Review Summary
The full English breakfast is what reviewers return to most, with several calling it the best they have ever had and singling out the black pudding, sausage, and poached eggs. Close behind is the friendly staff, described as lovely, attentive, and helpful, with big smiles from the moment guests walk in. Beyond the fry-up, diners name the Jazza Bun, a chai latte, a hot chocolate, and a strong Yorkshire tea made the way one reviewer likes it. A vegetarian family found the meat-free options very good, and another visitor praised the fresh ingredients at lunch. Reviewers describe a calm atmosphere that is also full of chat and laughter. The one caveat is size: one reviewer calls the cafe a little small and advises arriving early to get a table. One pair of visitors liked it enough to go twice in three days.

“Here for the week with a group of friends. Went for a cheeky morning dip in the sea and then had a lovely English breakfast at the Beach Kitchen (2 min walk from the sea) . Their chai latte and English breakfast are a delight! Big recommendations! Regards Jens from the Netherlands”
