Sarah Thomas Absolute Perfection: Top-Tier Coffee and Cake in Town!I stopped by Trading Post Coffee Roasters and can honestly say this is the best coffee experience Ive had in ages. I ordered their classic pairing: a Flat White and a slice of Coffee Cake, and both were flawless.The Flat White was absolute liquid gold. It had perfectly extracted espresso with a deep, rich flavor, and the microfoam was silky smooth—a true sign of a skilled barista. It was the ideal temperature to savor right away.The Coffee Cake was the perfect companion. It was incredibly moist, packed with rich coffee flavor and spice, and had the most delicious crumb topping. It paired flawlessly with the bold coffee.Beyond the drinks and food, the atmosphere is fantastic—bustling but cozy, clearly a spot where people care deeply about the craft. If youre looking for genuinely top-notch coffee and baked goods, look no further. Five stars all the way!

Nigel B What a lovely find on a Tuesday in Lewes. Nice warm welcome and we had the best seat in the house. Nice atmosphere, music was nice and chilled as well. Popadoms came with a coconut paste which was amazing. Dhansak and a masala for the main course with a Peshawari nan, fantastic taste and flavours

RJS An amazing evening and dinner service at this great little gem in Lewes. The team were attentive, the food was stunning and we had a lovely time post meal in the bar too, following a chat with the head chef who was clearly passionate about creating a fabulous experience. We can’t wait until our next visit and we will be dreaming about the gnocchi!

Mark Sutton A fantastic bakery with seating available too. Very friendly staff serving excellent food. I was delighted with my roll, far superior to the well know chain of baskets. Its also so important to support local businesses. I will certainly call again, highly recommend.

Lee Bowler This is a beautiful old pub that serves excellent beers and the best pizza you will find anywhere around here (Pats Pizza). The bar staff are very much on the ball, welcoming, knowledgeable, kind and funny. I’ve now made this my local as a newbe to Lewes. The front bar is small and cosy AF but there is loads of space at the back bar and in the fire place room. They also have an upstairs and a great terrace at the back for times of good weather. This is a must spot if you are coming to Lewes.

Caitlin OConnell I had this burger today at Abyss - honestly delicious. I even got a cheeky bit of nacho cheese sauce with my chips. Thank you, this made my day ❤️
