    Had difficulty using the time consuming nonsense that purports to be a booking system. So visited place in person and a very kind waiter did the job for me. The meal was excellent as was the service. Call me old fashioned but what is wrong with ringing an establishment to book?

    The Fig cuisine and ambience are exceptional. We had the tasting menu ordering 9 dishes for 4 of us ; each dish was curated with elegance and aplomb. Totally delicious. Service was excellent too. We go back time & time again , booking in advance. We adore the Fig.

    We live in Rye and this is our go to place for brunch and dinner, particularly when we have friends staying. Delicious, well presented and lots of choice for vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters. The sharing plates are generous, 6 between the 3 of us was perfect (and not carb heavy) leaving just enough room for 3 yummy desserts! The service is super efficient too, warm and friendly. We will of course return! Thank you Rosie and your fabulous team

    Lovely food, and not what you'd cook at home. A bit noisy, but it was Friday night I suppose.

    Fantastic flavours and quality of food. Staff are great. Obviously it’s a bit more expensive but in line with other quality restaurants in Rye. Would recommend and have been there a few times
