Harry Ramsden's Eastbourne

Very pleasant waitress who made lunch a special occassion for Mums 98th birthday.

The food we were served is not what made Harry Ramsden's fish and chips famous, batter was not crispy neither was the chips. I could see from other diners that there food wasn't crispy either. A lady sat opposite me took the batter off her fish and was able to fold it up on her plate. We ordered sticky toffee pudding with custard that came out cold, we had taken a couple of spoonfuls to establish this and the waitress took them away, microwaved them and added more custard rather than bringing out fresh desserts. Very poor and won't be going back.

First time there, quick response from waiting staff and shown to a choice of tables. Enough time given to decide on orders and taken correctly. Nice and slightly different prawn cocktail served then without too much wait arrived to main course..... good sized piece of fish and ample chips. Waiting staff were very friendly and kind about the period in between starter and main. Left with a good feel and would visit again wanting fish and chips.

The staff were very friendly and service was very good but very disappointed on the value of the food. For instance I ordered the Legendary Cod costing £14.49 expecting to receive a massive piece of fish as I was very hungry but only got what I would say was a normal large piece of fish which I could have got for half the price elsewhere. I could not recommend to a friend as better value elsewhere.

Very pleasant waitress, made for lunch a special ockassion for mums 98th birthday.
