Very disappointed in the service. Very hot summer day, 30’C outside, a beautiful day to spend relaxing on the beach. Waited 30 minutes to be asked if I even wanted to order drink and still not had it 20 minutes later. 5 or 6 staff was circulating not more than 20 tables and roughly 40-50 customers - more than enough staff to cover the demand of a pretty quiet afternoon, yet I was totally invisible to them. Other customers sat at the tables around me were offered refills while I never had the first one. They only noticed me as I was leaving the premises.

We were staying on the Normans bay camp site and decided to take a stole up the beach on Saturday evening. As we walked in to the aqua we were greeted by a lovely barman and a pub full of life. A rock band were coming in and setting up so we decided to stay for the evening entertainment. They were brilliant!! and the pub got packed very quickly and to my surprise they had just the one barman on all night! He was outstanding even though the bar was jam packed he kept his smile and still managed to make conversation. We will come back to Pevensey bay just for that experience. Thank you aqua and staff.

Just happened to be passing and found this pub and wasn't sure what to expect we ordered sausage and chips for out two boys, fish and chips and roast beef dinner. The service was great and the food was cooked really well and tasted delicious. The kids loved it too as the table we were sitting at was actually on the beach. Would definitely recommend.

After coming here various times, I can honestly say "it's the best food in the bay". From Sunday lunch, Friday night Thai, and the freshly sourced fish dishes, all absolutely delicious. The staff and friendly atmosphere all help to make it a meal to remember. My favourite was the lobster and salad!! On a sunny day, don't forget the sun cream!! The view of the beach is wonderful!!

We've been here on numerous occasions over the past few years and have always had a good time: food is great and beer/wine good. Prices are very reasonable and there's always a warm welcome.

Have lived in the area 20 months, but only visited the Aqua twice before today. Promised we would return for fish & chip lunch. Well worth the effort, sat in the garden area overlooking the beach. Had some drinks & 2 enormous pieces of fresh cooked local cod with chips. First class. Friendly bar staff (proprietors?), good service, great atmosphere on a pleasant summer's day. Friday lunchtime live guitarist / singer provides good music. pool table inside & different evening events as per programme. If on holiday here, then be sure to call in. If local resident ,don't delay visit soon, you won't be disappointed.

The actual venue is nice enough and is in a very good spot overlooking the sea. A good place to stop, have a drink and take in the views. We all had fish and chips. Not the biggest portion. The batter on the fish was very dark, almost burnt. The chips were ok, nothing to write home about. I would drop in again for a drink if I was passing but would not go out of my way to visit.

Very friendly, owner is great.
Fresh local fish in every day.

They arrange lots of live music events as well as things like bingo (!) and quiz events stuff like that.

You can sit right next to the beach for food and drinks lovely.

Went into the Aqua Tuesday night and bingo was in progress, quite a crowd and all enjoying themselves. They also do bingo on a Thursday afternoon.
