East Point Pavilion Events Venue in Lowestoft

East Point Pavilion, Royal Plain, Lowestoft NR33 0AP

About This Pub

Ah, East Point Pavilion – it's one of those places that just captures the essence of a proper seaside outing, doesn't it? From what I've gathered, it's this charming glass pavilion right on the seafront, all done up in a lovely Victoriana style that's been given a modern twist. The views are just breathtaking; imagine sipping on a craft beer or a cocktail while gazing out over the North Sea – it's pure bliss on a sunny day. Folks rave about the food too, with options like fresh street food from pop-up stalls, delicious burgers, tacos, and even pizzas that hit the spot without costing a fortune. And the events calendar is a real highlight; whether it's catching some live music, joining a yoga class, or browsing a monthly market, there's a good mix to keep things interesting. The staff sound like absolute stars, always polite and making sure everyone feels welcome, which really adds to the welcoming vibe. On the flip side, though, the hours are a bit on the short side, wrapping up at 4 PM, so it's more of a daytime affair rather than a place for evening drinks. Plus, with no new reviews lately, it might not be as buzzing as it once was, and that 'closed' status is a bit of a head-scratcher – I'd double-check before planning a visit. All in all, if you're in Lowestoft and fancy a relaxed spot with great food and a community feel, it's worth a go, but keep those limitations in mind for a smoother experience.

Pros and Cons

Pros

The seafront location is absolutely stunning, with gorgeous views of the North Sea that make it a perfect spot for a relaxing day out.
It's incredibly affordable, offering everything from barista coffee and craft beers to cocktails and street food without breaking the bank.
There's always something going on – think live music, workshops, markets, and classes like yoga or pilates, which keep things lively and engaging.
The staff are really friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you step in.
The atmosphere is spacious and comfortable, with a lovely Victoriana-style design that's been beautifully updated.

Cons

The opening hours are a bit limited, typically from 10 AM to 4 PM, so it's not ideal if you're after a late-night spot.
There haven't been any recent reviews in the last six months, which makes me wonder if things have quietened down a tad.
The business status shows it as closed, which might mean occasional closures or updates, so it's worth checking before you head over.
No phone number is listed, which could make it tricky if you need to get in touch quickly about events or bookings.

Super nice spot to check out on the seafront. We throughly enjoyed it. Stopped by here with friends last week while parked up by the seafront & it was lovely - we had a drink from the bar, purchased some tasty local grub from pop up food shops, got some fab pics & had a good chat with the manager who seemed a really nice & genuine guy. All the staff in this place were very friendly & welcoming for that matter too. Impressed with the bathroom facilities as well as they were really clean & hygienic which isn't always the case. Being in the winter now it was quite quiet when we arrived but upon leaving a good hour or so later it was much busier. This place is probably packed in the summer months with more going on such as live music & more food options along with more tourists. We were really glad we found the pavilion and decided to check it out. Thanks to all the staff.

I came in for lunch and had the Rainbow Bowl from Tres Hermanos. I didnt have any filling with it, but it was more than ample food for a lunch. It looked beautiful and tastes delicious. Its a lovely place to come for some food and drink and look out over the North Sea. Also, the toilets are spotless.

The staff of Black Dog were absolutely brilliant, very polite and incredibly proffessional. They made us feel welcome and the food was lovely. The Toby's Bears where also incredibly cheerful, welcoming and very friendly! The atmosphere is very welcoming the furniture and layout spacious and comfortable. Even the toilet facilities where clean and well kept!

I've been in and out of here all through the weekend as it's opened during the first light festival and there's been so much choice from the different food outlets! Great burger and outstanding fries from oisihi kitchen, loved the pulled pork tacos at hermanas, pizza bases from black dog deli are superb and I had a couple of the different toppings which were quality. Mostly I've been snacking on the run and planet ouef (love that name!) Takeaway scotch eggs and sausage rolls in various options have kept me on the go. Only had the opportunity for one beer at Sir Toby's, their Pavilion beer commemorative ale so far but will return when I can sit and chill. Beautifully redone inside and way better than the old white elephant! Toilets are great, inside and outside sitting spaces are great and all the staff are really happy. Well done and thank you for turning this place into somewhere to go!
