For something a little more up-market, this is a great Italian, authentic Neapolitan family run business, the staff are SO friendly and go out of their way to make you have the best possible experience. The food is pretty amazing, too... Oh, and beacause it's right on the seafront, it has nice views, and you can sit outside. Bella bella! Really feel like you're on holiday when you go there - booking is recommended.

This is Hastings' best kept secret. Hard to find, it's basically a big house with a big garden that does food (limited menu but all home-cooked) and is also available to hire for events/parties, I believe. Great for summer alfresco dining! Best check opening hours before turning up.

Arts & Culture
Great independent cinema, that is also part art-gallery and restaurant, and hosts live music events, jazz and the like. Ask the staff for the story behind the building and how they discovered the cinema!

A new art gallery that was built sympathetically with the Fisherman's huts in mind. It's got art, it's got culture.

Modelled on Regents Park in London by James Burton who was on of the most prolific builders of Georgian London. It has a pond and is very picturesque.

This is where, if you're lucky and the tide is low enough, you can see the shipwreck of The Amsterdam which ran aground in 1749, largely due to a lot of the crew having died of the plague, but mainly because the rest of the crew were drunk. It really didn't get very far towards it's destination, Java. There is also an underwater ancient forest there.
There's a shipwreck museum in Hastings itself for further info.

Sightseeing
Kastil Hastings
Castle Hill RoadIt's a ruin of a castle!
The original pier burnt down (some sort of insurance scam, legend has it), so the people of Hastings clubbed together and paid £1 for a tiny piece of the pier and rebuilt it. A work of minimalist glory, they sometimes have open air screenings on there and other events.

Entertainment & Activities
I'm ashamed to say - I've never been! But have always wanted to. These are the caves where the pirates used to smuggle their illicit booty through and hide. Great for kids!
