Welcome to the Beach Bistro, part of the Gallivant Hotel, our beach house hotel opposite the dunes of Camber and five miles of pristine sand beyond.

Trevor Hambley has returned to his country roots after many years of working in London alongside the likes of Marco Pierre White and Jean Christophe Novelli. Classically trained, his menus rely on the quality of the ingredients that we source from artisan suppliers and family fishermen and farmers who live and work within 30 miles of us – a sourcing policy we genuinely strive to attain for over 80% of the fresh ingredients we use.

Our New England style Bistro is a light and airy space reflecting our location with large glass doors that open onto terraces in the summer, the perfect place to enjoy alfresco lunches and early suppers. By night, the atmosphere is still relaxed but more sophisticated.

We are located just as you enter Camber, opposite the beach car park, about 3 miles from Rye and just over an hour and half from London.
