About This Place

Nestled within the charming surroundings of Old Town Bexhill, Jimmi’s Cafe & Restaurant offers a warm, inviting atmosphere that perfectly complements its diverse and thoughtfully crafted menu. Located at the Bell Hotel on Church Street, this local gem captures the essence of a traditional British cafe while delighting guests with subtle international influences.

Jimmi’s culinary offerings are a delightful mix of comforting classics and inspired creations. Food lovers will find themselves spoiled for choice with highlights such as the rich and indulgent chocolate brownies, moist and aromatic carrot cake, and the ever-popular coffee cake, each bite bursting with freshness and flavor. Their smaller full English breakfast is a perfect lighter option, balanced yet satisfying, featuring homemade baked beans praised by visitors for their exceptional, light-hearted taste.

For those seeking something with a Mediterranean flair, the Mediterranean tuna dishes and Safran chicken with fragrant basmati rice stand out as exquisitely prepared, with fresh ingredients and expert seasoning that awaken the palate. The menu extends to comforting jacket potatoes topped with tuna mayo and sweetcorn, and a lovely range of bakery items including the renowned cheese and fruit scones — one customer summing up the cheese scone as "out of this world" and light.

What truly elevates Jimmi’s is the impeccable attention to detail in both food and service. The pistachio and saffron ice cream, alongside other unique flavours like pistachio rosewater, offers a luxurious finish to any meal, combining creamy textures with delicate floral notes that make the experience unforgettable. Coffee enthusiasts won’t be disappointed either — with expertly brewed espresso, lattes, and flat whites that consistently earn praise for their rich, smooth character.

The ambience at Jimmi’s enhances the overall dining experience. Its warm, welcoming interior, coupled with friendly staff who clearly care about each guest’s enjoyment, creates a space where families celebrate milestones and cyclists find a relaxing respite. The venue’s ability to comfortably accommodate private parties of around 30 people with reasonable pricing further showcases its community spirit and versatile nature.

    Had a private party for my mums 60th and it was fantastic. Jimmi was so accommodating and we had the most fantastic time. The venue is beautiful and the coffee is delicious. Highly recommend if you're looking for a venue for around 30 people. Very reasonable pricing too. Thanks jimmi!

    Cycling on the 1066 walk/cycle path from Crowhurst it was time for a short rest and a coffee. We chose Courteney’s after seeing most tables occupied and where we could watch our bikes through a window. It has a long interesting food menu of classic cafe dishes. Virus protocol was followed correctly. As it wasn’t lunchtime we shared a cheese scone and we both agreed it was out of this world... light, delicate buttery flavour and a cheese crust. Do try it, it’s worth making an effort.

    We stopped by for breakfast which was absolutely delicious. Loved the homemade baked beans on the full English (which didn’t feel heavy at all). We tried Dubai pistachio cake as well, which was very special. Made fresh daily, with generous amount of pistachios. You can tell the food is prepared with great care and love. This place is a little hidden gem.

    Great place to eat. Very friendly staff. I had the lentil soup with a squeeze of lime. My 2 friends had a Persian vegetarian salad followed by delicious pistachio ice cream with saffron or rose water. Very reasonably priced.

    My mum introduced us to Jimmie's and I'm so glad she did. Not only do they take extremely good care of my mum, who is in her early 80's,but they also take extremely good care of all their customers. They just ow the regulars and what they want and the atmosphere is so calm and friendly. The food is delicious and cooked beautifully. Thank you all.

    What a super little café. The staff were so friendly and helpful when 12 of us turned up at short notice. We had great café style food and they even do some fantastic Persian specials. I would highly recommend it.
