The Pelican Diner in Hastings

One of the best brunches I’ve ever had, delicious food and friendly service. Came back again a year later and the Lumberjack Breakfast and customer service was just as good as I remembered! Can recommend the strawberry and Oreo milkshakes too.

The best breakfast in town and beyond. The pancakes and huevos rancheros were amazing. I'll definitely return

Love this place! 3rd time in this bank holiday and even better than the 1st two times. All 3 staff members were great and was a delight to watch them work so well together on the floor.They got everything right customer service wise, even down to checking we were happy. I'll be bringing all my visitors here in the future. Really impressive food, highly recommended. 5 stars well-deserved. Well done all

Very nice cafe with an innovative menu. Avocado on sourdough bread with halloumi sticks, Spanish omelette with flatbread & salsa, and an awesome breakfast bun! Filter coffee made a change from them fancy ones (!), and ladies serving were charming, bringing our dogs water and colouring paper/crayons for our grandson. Inside/outside seating and clean loo in a quirky setting. Fab!

16th August, 2021The Best American Diner!Found this place online. It's local right on the street. Big and easy to find.The staff is young, cool, polite people managing the place.We ordered half lumberjack breakfast, Halo egg and strawberry Banana smoothieI have to say, as the food arrived it looked delicious. Well presented!#Halo EggBig plate with salad, poached egg, chipotle aoili, Halloumi, salsa and avacado.Everything was scrumptious 😋😋Halloumia was cooked perfectly and had the zesty taste.#Half Lumberjack breakfastIt is same just you get 2 pancakes instead of 4.So, it had 2 multigrain toasts with butter, 1 fried egg, 2 pancakes with maple syrup, 1 veggie pattyFried egg was just so 😋😋 and pancakes were so fresh and soft.Veggie patty was flat and TOO SALTY (something for the cook to consider)#SmoothieIt was thick and deliciousIt's an amazing diner with great staff and quality food.I bet they have 5 star hygiene rating because their toilet was super clean 👍Would definitely revisit whenever I am back in Hastings.It's a must go for tourists #DefinitelyRecommend #MUSTGO

A cool little diner on the seafront, that get a lot of customers.👍We decided to book in advance, to ensure we could get some lunch after traveling to Hastings for the day.We were warned that food might take a while to arrive as it was fairly busy.It did take an hour to arrive, once ordered, and they forgot my food (chilli dog) and only served my fiancee's pancakes, which was a bit annoying as I was quite hungry by then!Despite the issues, the food itself was filling and exactly what I hoped for.I can't fault that.Just think perhaps a bit more solid organisation is required when ensuring customer orders are processed correctly.The staff were friendly and apologetic for the long wait, which I appreciated.✌️

Definitely worth a visit - food and staff great. Heads up, though, portions are huge! I’m a big boy, but half a lumberjack would have been more than enough!

Fantastic food and presentation - I would highly recommend the banoffee pancakes! The only negative (despite being a little overpriced I feel) was that we were the only people sitting upstairs and found it hard to get service, having to go downstairs if we wanted anything.

We had the most delicious breakfast here. We both had the lumberjack, mine was the mex eggs and bacon and my GF had poached eggs and avocado...both had pancakes and bacon....😁The service was excellent as was the coffee and the mint aero milkshake ( for breakfast ???)Would definitely lately recommend a visit!

Serves proper American hot dog with snap! Also has pancakes and other American diner fare. Lovely porridge too. Even better -- it's an all-day menu which means you can satisfy your hankering for a hot dog at breakfast. No need to wait for lunch.
