In sleepy Fairlight, on the edge of the Firehills, The Cove is an independently run freehouse serving locals, wanderers and gastronauts alike. Halfway between Hastings and Rye, The Cove is the perfect stop after a walk across the local beaches and coastal paths of East Sussex. We have a fire for the winter nights, a garden for summer days, and a friendly bar waiting to welcome you. Originally a hotel, the building sat empty for several years until 2022, when the Cove was renovated, restored and reopened with a new lease of life. It has quickly gained a reputation for excellent, elevated pub food with local chef and restauranteur Nick Hales leading the kitchen.In 2023 it was featured on The Times 50 Best Summer Pubs, and given a glowing review by Grace Dent in The Guardian Observer.

    This is a treasure and exudes good taste. An instantly warm welcome from interested, intelligent and engaging staff. Good to meet Andrew who’s running it with grace and professionalism, honed from years of experience in Michelin starred places. The conservatory dining area is an elegant, nicely illuminated, well laid out and acoustically friendly area, ideal for conversation and thank goodness, with no mindless music, just the gentle hubbub of gastronomic appreciation. We had lunch with our octogenarian relative. I chose the vegan, butternut squash terrine….an exquisitely delicious triumph, the best I’ve ever eaten and a work of art! My husband’s burger, sumptuous beef, excellently seasoned, in a delightful brioche bun with beautiful chips. My mother in law chose gammon, perfectly tender and a ‘just right’ portion. Afterwards, very good coffee as our digestive. Later, we walked through to the older part of the pub and found a wonderful fireplace and cosy, seating areas that we’ll look forward to trying next time. This really is the nicest pub/restaurant and a discerning gourmet’s choice. We loved it and will be back.

    Easy to book, friendly helpful staff on arrival. Nice atmosphere. The food was generally good but pricy. Not impressed with the pitiful scraps they called chips. We would go again, for the atmisphere and friendly staff.

    La Delizia has become one of our favourite restaurants in Hastings. It is such an enjoyable experience.The food is excellent and everything is cooked from fresh. The service is friendly and efficient and the waiting staff are all very knowledgeable. The pasta dishes are so, so good as is the risotto and gnocci. I would definitely recommend the Baked Salmon, Prawn, Leek, Tomato & Sherry Sauce which is absolutely delicious. The wine list offers a small but perfectly adequate selection of mainly Italian wines and the Montepulciano is excellent. Well done La Delizia. You've totally got it right.
