The Cookhouse Cafe in Hastings

Found this on Google search and wow what a gem of a place. Wonderful menu and it did not disappoint. Great decor and the owner is a pleasant man who is very attentive with a lovely smile. Definitely one on my regular list from now on.

Had a late breakfast here today as a birthday treat. The food was top quality and good value and the latte was one of the best i've had with a quirky extended froth. The decor is also quirky with an industrial theme, with interesting pictures on the walls, which are also for sale. The cafe is scupulously clean and the owners are friendly and smartly attired. Even down to using one of their own 'quirky' wooden bow ties. By the way quirky is my word of the day!

So I has the Toros(Torosh) Eggs benedict with red cabbage and black pudding! Possible the best thing I have ever eaten😇! So if your ever in Hastings, try The Cookhouse! Not just for that, breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner! Food is exquisite 👌, not forgetting the little treats with your coffee, or tea and a little sweet to leave with!

Based on very good ratings, I drove 1/2 hr to visit this place (which was "Open" according to Google) & it was closed. No sign on door or anything! Big lesson: phone before you go....

Absolutely brilliant, great latte and poached eggs with black pudding, genuine 10/10 service, probably some of the best in the area, defo one to visit

Best hot chocolate I’ve had in ages! Interior decor was very unique with a lot of the items on display for sale. My parents have visited this cafe before and decided to bring me along and I will definitely be returning in the near future. Extensive menu, offering a wide variety of milkshakes, hot drinks and range of food - there’s something for everyone. The owners are clearly passionate about their job taking pride in everything they made and served to customers :)

Heard of this place from a friend and I wasn't disappointed one bit. Friendly server, and delicious Hungarian food makes me wanna come back very soon!

The cookhouse cafe is a truly welcoming and cozy family-run cafe, with wonderful service, delicious food and a unique decor. Their Covid-19 safety concept is beyond anything I have yet to observe: you will be provided hand-sanitizer, all tables, surfaces and chairs are thoroughly cleaned in-between *each* customer, and social distancing is actually maintained between different tables.Csaba will greet you and immediately make you feel welcome as well as offer personal recommendations. Once seated you can admire the handcrafted art on the walls (made by the owners) which reflects their family history and Hungarian heritage. It's a truly unique place to sip your tea, enjoy an English breakfast and also the Hungarian specialty bread Lángos which is a MUST try if you come down.I advise anyone who is planning a visit to book ahead to secure a place!

This is a perfect little treasure of a cafe: super-friendly staff, delicious food cooked with love and skill, funky unique hand-crafted decor (Hungarian steampunk don’t you know!) and the best COVID-safe precautions I’ve seen. Highly recommended!
