Good breakfast!

Sept 2022 • family

Enjoyed our breakfast - gluten free blueberry American pancakes with fruit kebabs ( chose not to have the sauces with it) and avocado on toast with poached eggs. Lots of choice on menu. Tasty coffee and tea served in very unusual teapot. Staff helpful. Seats outside and inside.

Great cafe, highly recommend

Mar 2023 • friends

Had lunch with some friends and our babies, the service is always great and food delicious. Plenty of choice on the menu, every dish sounds tasty so it’s difficult to decide what to eat! The chai latte was lovely and I selected the avocado dish for my lunch with some extra bacon. Relaxed spot to eat, super friendly and we always feel welcome. Brilliant changing facilities for our little ones and they go the extra mile by offering some nappies (and other hygiene products) if for any reason you have baby brain and forget them. Look forward to returning.

Vibrant, friendly service and excellent food and drink

May 2024 • couples

Enjoyed the vibrant and comfortable atmosphere. Nice menu with everything classic you’d expect in a good café as well as lots of more special ingredients. The dishes had high-quality produce and good portions while also being reasonably priced, so great value for what you get. Service from all the staff was natural warm and friendly. Themed evening menu, cocktails and atmosphere looks really good too which I would like to try as it a fun vibrant place to go.

not quite right

Feb 2022 • none

Husband and I have been in twice recently. First time was a poor experience . After placing out order (just coffee and cake) we waited a very long time. There was one waitress taking orders- no other staff visible. Eventually several members of staff appeared - apparently they had been having a staff meeting. Why this could not be done before opening I don't know. There were a lot of orders waiting but after complaining we did get our coofee and cake fairly soon and we were not charged for the coffee. The coffee and cake were both good. We decided to give them another try today and sevice was better though for some reason the waitress brought our coffee , then took food to another table then brought our cake. I don't understand why she could not bring both together- how dificult it is to cut a piece of cake? Why not bring both together? . They just don't seem to get it quite right.

Best breakfast in Hailsham!

Jun 2021 • family

I had never been in here before but it had always caught my eye as I always get piercings done opposite! I took my mum for breakfast in there and I can honestly say it was amazing. I loved everything about it. The price was so reasonable, the staff were so lovely and attentive, the food was out of this world and I cannot fault it in the slightest. It is absolutely perfect and I recommend to anyone who is thinking of going!

Good well presented food , good choices

Jan 2023 • couples

Enjoy eating here - always busy so maybe book a table if you don’t like waiting. Seats inside and outside. Menu is good and we enjoyed our brunch. Lovely mushrooms on toast and a sweet potato rosti avocado dish. (See photos). Coffee is tasty too. Service is good although can feel a little laid back but that was ok with us as we had time. So not an issue for us but if you are short of time be aware. Shame gluten free blueberry pancakes have been taken off the menu - Miss those!! Hope they can come back. Enjoy eating here and will be back.

Long wait for mediocre food

Dec 2022 • family

We waited ages for two simple drinks. We then waited even longer for two breakfasts. No apology was made for the wait so I guess it's normal for food to take that long to come out. When it finally arrived it was very disappointing. Nothing bad enough to complain about at the time - just mediocre food you'd expect from a cheap pub. Hard to get a server's attention too. Not a great experience and will not be returning.

Noise level when coffee machine on is just awful

Oct 2021 • none

Went for a birthday lunch with my son. Service great - Food great, however the spoiler was the noise of the coffee machine. As a customer you could not hear yourselves talking. The lady next to us said to me exactly the same. Would recommend for the food and service BUT NOT for a relaxing lunch.

Fantastic up-market cafe/bistro with great food and atmosphere

Feb 2024 • couples

Melvyn (the manager) managed to get us in even though they were really busy, I’m so glad he did. The chorizo hash was amazing, I really enjoyed it as did my fiancée. The whole atmosphere is great, a welcoming environment that is a step up from a normal cafe setting. It has vibes of sophistication but not pretentious, also great value for money. Quality food, in a nice atmosphere all at sensible pricing. Will definitely recommend BUT make sure you book as they are busy.

Best tapas I’ve had for a long time and amazing gins!

Jul 2021 • friends

I tried this place with my friend as a Birthday treat. We went to the gin and tapas evening and it absolutely brilliant! The food was delicious, fantastic flavours and the gin menu was incredible. We had a lovely waitress who recommended gins we both loved. This is such a gem of Hailsham. We will definitely be going back. Perfect for a girlie catch up.

Lovely little spot!

Jul 2020 • friends

I’ve been to Bucklers a handful of times with friends and never been disappointed! Their breakfast and lunch menu are fab and there’s lots to choose from. The place is clean and the staff are super friendly. A really lovely local place to go if you’re in the area!

Very tasty brunch!

Aug 2020 • none

Popped in earlier this week for brunch. Had a very tasty sweet potato rosti. Coffee great too. Also couldn’t leave without buying a cheeky sausage roll from the deli counter. So good.
