Brasserie On The Beach - Rother

We had 2 (tasteless) sandwiches and 2 coffees that cost £30!! One was an egg sandwich which had a very pale yoke, obviously the very cheapest of eggs available I expect more than this from an £8.50 sandwich!

I popped in on Sunday with my mum for a bite to eat on the terrace. After sitting for 10 mins, and not being even acknowledged by any of the waiting staff, I had get up and grab our own menus. The staff did apologise but they were not busy so no excuse to be ignored for so long. Anyway mum had mussels which were nice and I had the veggie burger. The driest most tasteless thing I have attempted t eat in a long time. This is the sort of cheap veggie dross that used to be served up many years ago. But now there are fantastic meat substitutes widely available. The small portion of chips were ok. And there was a bowl of leaves too! But at £20 and the worst veggie burger I can remember it’s a rip-off. There was no communication from the waiting staff as to wether we were enjoying our meals, even though I had only taken one bite of the burger. We left soon after. Maybe this is why they insist on the customer paying BEFORE they get fed! AVOID

Booked a table for four of us for Sunday lunch. On arrival we were told that two of the main meats had sold out and there was only a choice of roast chicken unless we wanted fish and chips or burger. We were disappointed to say the least as if they serve until four o'clock how do they not have enough servings for bookings. Three of us had the chicken however the roast potatoes were dry as if they had been warmed up. We have eaten here many times before and have been pleased with the food but not this time. After our meal we were chatting at the table and were asked to move tables even though the restaurant was empty?? We spent nearly £200 so not a cheap lunch at all. We won't be booking to come again and will not recommend.

Another lovely meal at one of our fave spots! Andre is just so so lovely! From his service to his tip of how to remove gravy from my top! Thank you for another lovely experience! X

There are very few beach hotels with charm in this country, so the Cooden Beach hotel was a pleasant surprise. It's more like an American beach motel than a proper hotel. We all went for Sunday lunch. The restaurant was nice, the staff were nice. The starters were pleasant. It was the main course, the Sunday lunch that was the letdown. Roast potatoes that have probably been sitting around most of the day. Awful chewy Yorkshire pudding. Soggy sprouts. Plowing through the main course seemed arduous and pretty tasteless. I think we would go back, but we would order food that hopefully will have been cooked fresh.
