The Fig
2 High St, RyeWe had lunch. Unfortunately we missed the bunch menu, however, it was very nice. Service was slightly strange: One moment we had many servers asking if we were ready to order. However, when we were ready to pay, everyone disappeared. Despite this, so this was overall fantastic. My only feedback would be that brunch shouldn't end at midday surely, this makes it a breakfast menu. Brunch is until 2 pm (Google concurs!).

The Union Rye
8 East St, RyeVery accommodating staff and great service over all and lovely little place. Food was consistently good. We enjoyed the shredded, smoked oyster mushroom with crumb on salad and my fish dishes, Hake Skewer and Skate/Ray wing were delicious. For the sharing plates ethos/concept, if you have a dietary requirement there probably aren't quite enough dishes to pull that off, so for example, you maybe better off asking for a nice sounding veggie dish to be made into a main.
Excellent wines throughout.

6 High St, RyeMy husband booked a table to celebrate my birthday whilst staying in Rye. My first impression of this beautiful oasis was one of originality and genuine warmth. We were certainly not disappointed in any way by the care & attention we were given by Lily and her colleague. They were delightful every step of the way. It was the perfect attention to detail, ensuring our wine was perfectly chilled and showing a genuine interest in my birthday celebration. Thank you , you turned a special occasion into a memorable one . We will definitely return.

Sahebs Indian Restaurant
Station Rd, Northiam, RyeA quirky stop-off Indian! It wasn't very busy as the weather was cold. Lots of parking but it is an extremely large restaurant. When we went in the venue was modern and very well decorated and very appealling, but the temperature was cold, when we left the temperature was OK. Service was very welcoming and friendly. Food was very high quality. What we weren't expecting was 2 large groups with children - one was a raucous !!! Possibly request a quiet area if desired. I would definitely go again - Chicken Tikka next time !!!!

35 The Mint, RyeWe went here for our meal on Wednesday 27 august 2025.
Sign as we went in stated food would take about 40 mins wait.We were not bothered as we were in no rush.
It was a little longer probably closer to an hour but went out food arrived the waitress explained that the chef was not happy with the stake he had cooked for me so had cooked another one.
Wife ordered a aubergine steak I had ordered an 8oz cooked medium rare.
We both agreed that the chips which came with our dishes were probably the best chips we had ever had and that my stake was definitely cooke perfectly and again one of the best I've tried.
It's a pity we live so far away as we would definitely eat here again.
Thank you to the waitress and the chef and to all involved in this restaurant

Hayden's
108 High St, RyeWas recommended this place by a couple of friends, whilst the setting and the food were great, excellent value afternoon tea, the tea was so weak like drinking hot water and all I can say about the server was she was having a bad day but maybe not from other reviews. Whilst she accommodated us, it was done without a smile and no friendliness whatsoever, food 5, setting 5, service 1 sadly. I wouldn’t be in a rush to come back to be honest.

30 Wish St, RyeWe visited Rye for the first time in 5 years and stumbled across this little place .I had a brown bread bacon sandwich and my partner had a white bread bacon and sausage sandwich. The bread was lovely and fresh and very light not stodgy at all . There was plenty of filling all cooked to perfection . The price was very reasonable and the staff were very friendly Unfortunately it is only small inside and there wasn't enough tables there are tables outside but it was raining so many people came into the cafe but had to leave as the tables were taken , alot of 4 seater tables were taken up by 2 people I think more 2 seater tables instead of 4 seater would benefit the cafe as more people could be seated . Over all a great little cafe and I would highly recommend it ?

The Mermaid Inn
Mermaid St, RyeThe Mermaid Inn is such a charming hotel with a unique vibe! The staff is generally friendly and professional, and the hospitality is top-notch! The hotel and our bedroom were spotless, thanks to the amazing housekeeping! But there are issues . Parking; be prepared to try and squeeze in the limited number of tight car parking spaces, due to the age and location of the building, or like us park in a local car park at an amazing rate of £3 per day, only a 5 minute walk away. Room 25 is situated near the kitchen extractor fan system. Upon arrival, a noticeable fried fish odour was present. Additionally, a low-frequency hum emanates from approximately 6:30 am to 10 pm which is highly irritating and detracts from relaxation, which woke my wife each morning. The cooked breakfast is stunning, first class ingredients cooked to perfection. The continental is extremely lacking and not great quality. Bar food, the fish and chips were great! But the mushy peas were a bit of a letdown—they were more like mashed garden peas with butter. My wife’s main course was a watermelon, strawberry, and feta salad, which was a bit of a mixed bag, you know? It felt like it was trying to be both a starter and a dessert, not quite hitting the mark as a main course. Maybe it would have been better served at breakfast! Basically, it was a bit of fruit floating around in pomegranate syrup. Plus, there were only about six or seven tiny feta cubes, and instead of salad leaves, there were just a few micro basil leaves sprinkled on top. A very over priced dish missing the mark!
