The De La Warr Pavilion’s Café Bar & Kitchen is the perfect place to take a break between gallery visits, where you’ll find friendly faces, stunning sea views, and most importantly, delicious food.. Our Kitchen team pride themselves on sourcing fresh locally-sourced ingredients, and the menu includes more vegetarian and vegan options – scroll down to see the sample menus.
Favourites such as Hastings fish & chips and the classic DLWP burger are still on the menu along with our new Sweet Potato & Butterbean Burger in a charcoal bun, and a winter warming Squash and Lentil Tagine. We also have a new Sticky Toffee Pudding with salted caramel ice cream (made in-house!) to satisfy that sweet tooth.

A word from our chefs:
‘We do our best to source as many ingredients as possible from local providers. Some of our loyal local suppliers include Carroll’s greengrocers for vegetables, Catsfield Farm for free-range eggs, The Poppyseed Bakery who make our sandwich bread and burger buns, and local butchers Burt’s, who provide our chicken and bacon. We use free-range meat from Sussex farms, including the pork that makes the home made sausages so tasty, and our apples and pears come from Sussex orchards.” Ryan Taylor, Head Chef
