No standing allowed, inside or out. Please enter via the car park door and wait to be seated. Bearing in mind we still have to space the tables out more than we'd like, booking is strongly advised, whether you are eating, drinking, or both. Table bookings for dining will be taken 12 - 2:30 and 5:30 - 7:30 Mon - Sat, and 12 - 3:30 on Sundays.

We've reduced the menu a bit while we get back in the swing of things, but we're hoping to add some 'specials' as we go along. New menu available to view on request, or via our website shortly. Situated in the East Sussex coastal village of Pevensey Bay (just to the east of Eastbourne), this 16th Century building has been tastefully renovated, though with its low ceilings and oak beams it retains its 'old world' pub charm.
Services
The Castle has a strong following among locals and visitors alike for fine homemade food, a tradition now built upon with an expanded menu including a selection of starters, light bites, and desserts. This menu is supplemented by a regularly changing selection of 'specials', announced daily on our blackboards and on our Facebook page.

Nice country pub outside Pevensey Castle. Large garden which will be great in the summer for eating out. Food reasonable (average £13 a main) and good choice . Nice atmosphere and friendly staff . Dog friendly too

Having booked a family from afar + doggie, Christmas meal for 9, sadly reduced to 5 then to 2 because of illness, my brother in law and I enjoyed a lovely meal à deux with very friendly staff and lovely Christmas atmosphere, only pity the fire wasn't alight to complete the picture as little chilly.

The Castle Inn at Pevensey Bay is a solid traditional pub, close to the beach. It offers a fair selection of cask ales at average prices, a pleasant community atmosphere and the obligatory pub grub. The interior is fairly extensive and rather bright, and there's a small seating area to the front. The pub isn't really close to the castle, it's in "the other" part of Pevensey Bay, the beachfront part. Having a few hours to kill after visiting Pevensey Castle (the trains from Pevensey Bay station in either direction go just four times a day: twice in the morning, and twice in the afternoon along the

We had the loveliest meal with our family in holiday from London and Ireland. They had a miserable stay at the Pevensey Bay caravan park made very special by the atmosphere, great customer service and fantastic food. We enjoyed it so much we are back again this weekend. The sea bass is to die for. Dreaming about eating it since. If you are ever in Eastbourne go to the Castle Inn in Pevensey guaranteed not to be disappointed.
