The Westbourne — Restaurant in England

Absolutely love this pub. The staff here are so helpful, friendly, and fun! There’s a welcoming atmosphere the moment you walk through the door 🫶🏻 The Westbourne is a relatively modern looking pub, with lofty ceilings, plenty of natural light, and ambient fairy lights strung around the rafters for the evenings. There are several tables outside too for enjoying good weather. I have to say, this could be the best Sunday roast in Hove. The vegetable wellington was exceptional - packed with tasty vegetables and pearl barley, and wrapped in the most gorgeous flakey pastry. All the trimmings were fantastic (crispiest roast potatoes I’ve had on a pub roast!) and no skimping on the gravy! I also indulged in a side of pigs in blankets, which were really flavoursome and a good portion for the price. There is a huge selection of beers on tap, including some quirky choices for the more adventurous palate. The cocktails here are great too 😋 The Westbourne is spacious, dog friendly, has very slick bathrooms, and even the Sussex-favourite pub entertainment, ‘toad’. I highly, highly recommend this...

Decent enough pub. Food isn’t the best after several tries. Service is hit or miss. Some folks are lovely but others act like you’re an inconvenience if you come to the bar and order a drink. A lot of folks working there just don’t seem happy; seems like they have an identity crisis between trying to be a local pub or a wam bam thank you ma’am bar. Ordered the lamb kebabs one night and they were out of lamb so replaced it with chicken without telling me first - the replacement didn’t work for the recipe and wasn’t really edible. And they still charged me for lamb. There’s friendly enough locals who come round and seems popular with young parents with kids. The space is big and accommodates big parties. Some cheerier staff and more consistent quality with food would be a...

I have given five stars because I adore Milk Stout. A wonderfully tasty pint from the Bristol Beer Factory. However, a tad at the top of the price range, £5.95. Loads of other beers, inc Gun's Best. The best loos ever, although plunged into utter darkness whilst urinating. Lots of waving my arms and, let there be light, so at least I could again see my tiny winky .... also this adorable public house has the ancient Sussex pub game, Toad In The Hole but only on Mondays, as quote, "it's too noisy" to allow on other days. Wow. Either you have toad, or you don't. So, really, three stars but worth five due to the magnificant refurbishment. Also, food, food, food to delight. Three or five stars, absolutely worth a visit in my humble ... Take care. Love to...
