Inkerman Arms

Encountered this place at the end of a walk around Rye’s Nature Reserve. It’s a couple of miles away from the town proper and on the other side of the river from Camber Sands. It’s remote and I guess it does most of it’s trade from a bizarre mix of twitchers, walkers, holiday camp people (there’s a caravan park nearby) locals and beach bums!!! Nevertheless, it’s a little gem…
The staff were especially friendly & obliging. They keep Harvey’s and whilst the interior décor seems lost somewhere in the 70’s or 80’s it’s as cosy inside as it was freezing outside… and boy it WAS cold! Their big thing is fresh fish & shellfish. It’s excellent. Unsuprisingly, the fish is as local & as fresh as could be and they pride themselves on it. The plaice comes highly recommended.
It’s no gastro-​pub, just a coastal local that you feel instantly at home at. I’d certainly visit again just to continue working my way through that fish!!! Happily recommended!!!
