A small half timbered pub on the West Hill near the castle to where a lift goes from the Old Town. It is the last pub in an area that as recently as the turn of the century had five. A friendly community pub, (and 'sister' pub to the North Star in St Leonards), with a large beer garden to the rear. It has four handpumps offering a permanent and a changing guest ale, plus Weston's Old Rosie cider, which is not real cider according to CAMRA's definition. The rear garden features a petanque court that customers are free to use.

Although Ore station is nearer (750m), it has a lesser service than Hastings station..
