Stopped off at this fab little pub for lunch and drinks. There was a good choice of food on the menu plus specials, it was tasty and good value for money. Great atmosphere being right in the middle of the old town and packed as it was 'Jack in the green'. We will defietely visit again next time we're in Hastings.

Tapas on a Thursday! Place is amazing, you have to be patient with the food as the chef prepares it all from scratch, good food takes time and this guy is serving up great food! So expect to wait a little, if you want fast food, go to McDonald's!

We popped in here on Sunday for a roast with some friends who had never been to Hastings before, so we wanted to show them the real Old Town charm. The Hastings Arms didn't let us down. A lovely cosy pub with super friendly staff really set the tone. Our reserved table was ready to go and we had drinks in hand in no time. I opted to get some whitebait as a starter, as being by the sea, it would be silly not to! It was tasty, and even my three year old loved the idea of eating whole fish! Next up was the roast, and it was fantastic. I personally had the lamb and am very glad I didn't get the large. I can generally put away a roast of any size without too much trouble, but even the medium is a very generous serving size. The meat was delicious and not dry like a lot of lamb roasts can be, so that was great. A special mention goes to the gravy. Oh that gravy! So thick and full of flavour! All too often a pub gravy is a watery mess, but not this one. It was perfect! All in all, I we loved it. The kids serving looked very much like our adult ones, just served in a big bowl, so that made us chuckle. Our friends loved Hastings so much that they opted not to visit Rye the next day and to mooch around old town some more. Great tucker and I would strongly recommend a visit!

Visited at lunchtime with my brother last week. About half a dozen 'locals' enjoying a beer. The guy behind the bar was reasonably welcoming and the beer (Shepherd Neame's Spitfire) well kept and clear as a bell. Unfortunately we were overcharged at the first attempt, but the mistake was realised and quickly resolved. Interior was clean with excellent furnishing, which reflected the period and heritage of the pub. Lots of nooks and cosy areas for patrons to enjoy their drinks and soak up the atmosphere. The food looked good judging by what we saw being served. Unfortunately, a large group of mums with babes and toddlers arrived and occupied a corner, raising the noise level and making what was a quiet pint into a less relaxing experience. But they were quite rightly enjoying the pub in their own way. Overall a decent experience and certainly worth a return visit.

Very nice friendly pub. Had a curry which is done on 'Ruby Tuesday ' and is good value. Freshly cooked and really good value. But the specials are a bit more flavoursome. Good range of beers.
