Eastbourne Bistrot Pierre will have a ‘tailor made fish menu’ from local supplier
Bistrot Pierre will be opening at the landmark seafront location in November.
The French restaurant chain’s Eastbourne website has gone live, though some eyebrows were raised when it appeared there was no special fish menu, as had previously been announced to honour the coastal town.

However, Bistrot Pierre confirmed today (October 10) a tailor-made fish menu is being developed with a local supplier.
Rob Beacham, co-founder of Bistrot Pierre said, “We’re delighted to be opening in Eastbourne very soon.
“We are currently developing a tailor-made fish menu for our bistrot with a local supplier. This menu will feature fresh, seasonal fish and will be announced via our website very soon - we can’t wait to share it.”
