"My family and I dined at the Union restaurant in December 2023 for the first time, marking our fourth visit overall after dining there three times previously on our own. While most of the food we have had at the restaurant has been excellent, there was one instance where my main course wasn't as good as it had been on other occasions. During this visit, my starter was good and my dessert was outstanding, but unfortunately, my main course was disappointing and overpriced. I'm not a fan of fish or seafood, and I don't always crave red meat, so I opted for the vegetarian option among the choices of lemon sole, steak, Somerset goat chops, and a vegetarian dish. My husband enjoyed the lemon sole he ordered, but my vegetarian meal was bland and unappetizing. I had to add salt to try to improve the taste, but it was mostly butterbeans and lacked flavor. For the price of £21, I expected a more satisfactory meal. I found it extremely disappointing and not worth the cost. While dining in Rye can be expensive, the quality of the food usually justifies the price. However, I would advise avoiding or being cautious when selecting this particular main course at the Union."

Fantastic food definitely the best meal we had in Rye. Attention to detail was great and everything we had was so fresh and full of flavour. If we’re back in the area would be top of our hit list. Service was also very good. View menu

First time my wife and I have been to Rye together and I'm glad we picked The Union to eat at! A beautiful place, very cosy and comfortable, had that proper countryside town pub feel but with a more modern contemporary feel to it. The food was delicious and I think I found my new favourite cocktail (that my wife had), East Street. Prices were a little more than than your typical pub but the quality was truly there. Would definitely recommend!
Daniel
Stylish beautifully decorated restaurant. Really great team. Very friendly and helpful with explaining the menu. Lots of choice small plates and a few larger sharing plates. We started with some delicious oysters and then the sharing steak and the asparagus small plate. The asparagus was outstanding with a wonderful sauce. Finished with eton mess with berries and an expresso martini. Good wine list slightly expensive but enjoyed a rose from Provence. Thank you to the kitchen and chefs/cooks .. Highly recommend
