Considered by many to be one of the best places to eat in Eastbourne, Cru is the sister restaurant to Shuck where we had a fantastic lunch in February.

Just a stone’s throw from the station, this restaurant/wine bar/wine shop is tucked below street level on Hyde Gardens.

Hardy and his team have promised a sharing feast of:

To Start

  • Charcoal grilled Pluma Ibérica with Romesco and hazelnuts
  • Diver-caught Rye Bay scallops with Café de Paris butter
  • Wild sea bass ceviche, citrus, chilli, balsamic pearls
  • Oak Hall Pan con Tomate and Cantabrian anchovies

Main

  • Selection of in-house dry-aged grass-fed steaks cooked over charcoal served with peppercorn, béarnaise & chimichurri sauces
  • Beef fat fries
  • Lobster mac & cheese
  • Green leaf & herb salad
  • BBQ’d tenderstem
  • Truffle & parmesan onion rings

To Finish

  • Chocolate mouse with sea salt, crème fraiche & honeycomb

As Cru specialise in wines and have an ever-changing list of over 200 wines, we thought we best leave the welcome drink and wine pairings to them.

I expect that we will be well looked after!

This lunch event is open to members and their guests
