Great spot in Eastbourne for a quick breakfast or snack. First time trying a full English here and it did not disappoint. Hoping to be back!

Visited this place whilst craving a breakfast bagel and they did not disappoint!! This is your retro-vibe cafe experience. You walk past a pretty great selection of baked goods to order from a very vast menu! Prices seemed reasonable, staff were great and the food came to the table extremely quickly I had the bacon and egg bagel which comes with hash browns (my favourite) and it was all very delicious! No complaints from me

I got stuck in a really bad storm so cafe to cafe favoloso. I was really satisfied with their asparagus soup, which warmed me up like a mother’s embrace. Most of the other clientele sat deeper in the restaurant, but in my view if take the window seat for it gives you a beautiful view of the buildings. The staff were very kind.

I have visited favoloso a few times when I visit Eastbourne, must say that they never disappoint. Had their breakfast, cake, sandwich and now trying their jacket potatoes sundae and ice cream! The service is good, polite. Atmosphere is great, high ceiling open interior, lovely place especially if the weather is sunny. I would recommend this place for people visiting Eastbourne. The fatal attraction sundae is good, and moreish because It's not too sweet. Their tuna jacket potato is great as well.

I love Favoloso ! It reminds me of a 1960's ice cream parlor, a real nostalgic gem. It serves a wide selection of drinks, cakes and pastries, lunches and food. And ice cream ! It's always busy and the staff are super friendly. It's a real Eastbourne institution and is not to be missed.

We travel from Maidstone just for the ice cream sundaes, they are fabulous! The food here to is honest, good food at a reasonable price. Staff are friendly and, whilst a little unusual inside, it's a great place to eat. Awesome selection of sweet treats too
