Bill's Restaurant in Brighton and Hove

We just finished our meal at Lavash. Falafel & babagonoush bowl and lamb kebab platter. Outstanding food, very fresh, falafel, lamb and flat bread cooked in front of us. Don’t miss out this restaurant.

One of the best middle Eastern restaurants I've been too. Highly recommend.

The food has always been good here. However, today something happened that upset me a lot. I ordered a shawarma platter. When I took a bite of the couscous, something crunched against my tooth. It was a tiny stone. When I got home, i noticed that my tooth there had broken off. I’m extremely disappointed in Lavash.

Enjoy a wonderful chicken cõp wrap. Wonderful fresh bread, lovely chargrilled chicken and home made relish. Good value - would certainly go again.

while still waiting our food, I already like here. The food is tasty and no service charge.

2nd time visiting, food always amazing! Loved it

Very nice food with that little something extra. We ordered rolls and they fully met expectations.

Superb restaurant, very welcoming staff and wonderful dishes!!! The fruit juices are also very good!! And what's more, a very good price. I recommend

Amazing quality food at really good prices!

Wonderful service, immediately got given a table by who I think was the manager, was given a menu and ordered some wonderful drinks, food took a little longer but was expected as it was quite busy (still only about 25 minutes) but it was totally worth the wait. I had the Halloween special “Count Duck-Ula Burger” which was very flavourful and had a black bun! Food was great, service was great, atmosphere was great, 5 stars!

Lovely meal and amazing value with kids eating free. Samuel was really kind and friendly, thank you. Delicious food and nice atmosphere

The service was extremely friendly and helpful unfortunately that didn't quite make up for the very unimpressive food we were served. The children's meals were too small and didn't look or taste very good either. The carrot Batton's didn't look fresh and one piece had a black mark on the end. My breakfast was very disappointing, the streaky bacon seemed undercooked with a lot of very pale fat. I wouldn't ever bother to try another Bills again. I was confused how it was so busy in there and it really doesn't represent good value for money. I'd have enjoyed a weatherspoons meal more tbh and saved around £60 as well.

A wonderful place to eat with friends and family. Delicious food and a lovely atmosphere - brilliant service from Samuel!

Sam was amazing, so friendly and chatty, and gave us some amazing hair care tips. Thank you for a great dinner and amazing service!

Lovely place, nice to people watch from upstairs! Have eaten there many times and have never been let down!

Fresh bread takes the wrap to next level. Chicken shawarma was great! Staff friendly. The restaurant second floor decoration is so cozy and toilets are super clean. We are not from Brighton and felt so grateful to pick a random restaurant and find it brilliant in every aspect.

Lamb Cop Shish wrap is fantastic, the freshly cooked bread wrap is delicious. Chilled low-key atmosphere. Good lunch spot.

We liked the look of Lavash as we walked past so popped in for some lunch 🥙 and we were so glad we did as the food was very flavourful and the staff was friendly and welcoming 👍 it was a bit noisy on the ground floor so we move up to the first floor that was much better 😎 the only thing that fell short was the salad 🥗 that we paid an extra £4.95 for that was disappointing ☹️ over all we had a nice meal and would eat in there again 😎

Excellent shawarma and falafel. Exceptional atmosphere and great service. A great restaurant, only wish it had garlic sauce

Loved the flavours & enjoyed the bulgar instead of rice. Not something you see too often. Nice warm & welcoming atmosphere in the restaurant. I never knew how much space was available to sit down in there. (Mostly upstairs). Would go back for sure.

Last week, we visited and had great lamb pieces cooked with aubergines. It was served with v tasty mezes. We loved their mezes as well!🤗 great food, great experience 🤗 I would definitely recommend 😊

I love Lavash!!! So unassuming from the outside, this is one of my favourite eateries in Brighton. Their interior designer clearly knows what they are found this place is just so cool inside - especially upstairs. The staff are super friendly and are quick to explain what the various dishes are if you get confused. The food is top notch and so fresh it really is brilliant. There waitress was busy so the chef brought my order straight to my table himself to ensure that it didn't sit around even for a few minutes. Brilliant! I've been on my own and with a group of friends and every time the food has been just amazing.

Wraps and sharing plates are delicious, filling and great value. They also have a good loyalty scheme in place for regulars.

great wraps good selection for vegetarians

The food was rapped with not fresh and cold rapp Dry and with small 4 pieces of mead and no tasty vegetables!! Staff was a very not polite and not nice!! Specially who served us. Above more it is so expensive for this untasty. food. Usually Turkish food so delicious but not this.i wouldn't be recommender to eat there !

Every dish was full of flavor, and the staff made the experience even better. Highly recommended!

So tasty and loads of food for your money

This restaurant serves the best shawarma wrap. The wrap is bursting with flavor, packed with well tender chicken, fresh veggies, and perfect blend of spices. Fast service and generous portions make it a must-visit for shawarma lovers. You won’t be disappointed.

Had really tasty chicken here, the food was brilliant. The service was excellent. The espresso I had, blew my head off, which was perfect. Great place to relax and eat good food.

Megan/Meghan, our server, was really helpful and understanding when we complained about a particular meal being quite bland (the Hippy Bowl). She dealt with it so fast and was really friendly so we definitely would go back. Otherwise, the vibes are really nice and the deserts are especially good!

We have been coming to various Bills for many years, starting when the Lewes restaurant was the only one. I don't think we will be going again after such a bland and boring lunch in Brighton. The premises are tired and grubby. The food was on the table within 5 mins of ordering, suspiciously quick. It was very bland and generic and mass produced. The waitress was charming and couldn't be nicer. Basically this place has become too tired and has no trace of the original so only the name femains

Completely forgot to photograph our vegan platter (x2!) because we were hungry and they were absolutely amazing!

lovely chilled out experience with really nice drinks and excellent customer service. we were served by ella who was very on it and made sure we had everything we needed, and when i accidentally left my keys at my seat tried to call after me as i left (and when i returned looking for them, had them moved aside for me thankfully!!)

We’ve been twice this week it’s so amazing, food comes very quickly and all of the staff were so sweet and kind very nice place would recommend!!

Wonderful service and food. Shwarma and hippie bowl were lovely and fresh. Ella was great and really attentive. We had a really relaxing lunch with the kids.

The best shawarma that I have had in the UK so far! Not the usual kuboos, freshly baked bubbly naan right at the counter. The chicken was soft and full of flavour and all the ingredients were fresh. The place was maintained so well and excellent customer service! We spoke to the manager as well and she was very kind! Must visit place!

The two of us shared the veggie platter because we just needed a snack in between and it was really perfect. Very tasty compilation! There are generally many vegetarian and vegan options. Highly recommended 😊

Proper Lebanese food. Just how my Granny used to make when I was a child ❤️ Quality, real ingredients!

A real gem of a find! Delicious and plentiful food at a fair price. The staff were personable and friendly. Well done 👏 👏👏

Great wrap at a fair price. And it was quite large so it was all I had for dinner. Staff was friendly and helpful, quick service, clean place. I would definitely go back again.

We were visiting the Seven Sisters via Brighton and then we found this place. In the beginning being sure was difficult because it was not seem so good from the website but everything was so delicious and I really liked the atmosphere of the restaurant. Worth the prices.

shawarma at its best. They cook the naan fresh! Reasonable prices and a very nice environment.

Delicious food at a low price and very friendly service. I definitely recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

A place that I highly recommend. A delicious shawarma, spicy just enough and impeccable service. A very clean and impeccable restaurant

Modern and cozy good music in the background the staff very nice prices in

Absolute gem. Id highly recommend sharing starters which are incredible

Visited for a quick lunch, place was quiet but I have no idea why as good was delish. I had a halloumi and tzatziki wrap. Cost £10. Service was friendly and welcoming. Go! Best wrap for ages 😍😍

Delicious food with amazing service

Chicken shish wrap was delicious! Very big and filling… only downside was the wrap could do with some sort of sauce, other than that it was delicious!

Love love the food. The chicken shawarma tastes so good and loved the kebab 10/10 for me

The food was simply magical. Very tasty and very nice and friendly staff. I will definitely come here again. Turkish beer is very tasty. Lamb kebab, chicken kebab and two beers cost me £42.

Fresh, delicious and very filling, generous portions at a reasonable price. Highly recommend!

The food was amazing. And really beautiful design of restaurant. Staff was really nice and friendly.

Lovely fresh wraps, really tasty and filling.

Delicious food, excellent customer service.

Visited few weeks back with family. Place has warm cozy atmosphere. Staff were nice, and helpful. Our order was mixed up, and served different food. When we said this waitress didn't hesitate to change it. Later came and apologised for the mistake which is very hard to see from most restaurants. Food was delicious, big enough to fill your hunger. Fresh and tasty. Price was also at OK level. Recommended.

Very tasty food , friendly staff , clean restaurant and nice atmosphere + student /NHS discount

Fresh, flavoursome & generous portions of chicken in the chicken kebab platter. Lean grilled meat. Flatbread was delicious too.

Very very very tasty shawarma and falafel go with your eyes Closerd, the only little problem in the quantity… if you like to eat a lot like me, you’ll maybe need 2 plates. Except that perfect

Unseeming from the outside, but amazing food and a beautiful restaurant on the inside! Definitely a great find, also not too touristy. Dining area and toilets are also very clean. We both had the Falafel wraps and it was some of the best bread we've ever had. Also, it comes at a reasonable price (10£ p. p.) with complementary tap water.

Nice place with beautiful people, mashaAllah. The food is fresh and delicious. Staff were busy but still attentive. The falafels are amazing - recommend with homemade houmous. The bread is fresh and warm, and served with dips - also amazing. Prices were reasonable and fair. Visited after recommendation - returned twice and would definitely visit again.

Absolutely incredible food! The food tastes so clean and fresh and the servers were amazing. I would definitely return here again!

Proper Lebanese joint....little pricey but top quality

Just walked into this place at random and had the best chicken shawarma wrap of my life! So friendly too!

Everything wonderful! From the moment you arrive you receive very warm attention, delicious food and a lot of love. Super warm atmosphere. I definitely recommend the vegan platter, it was delicious. Thank you so much!🧝🏻‍♀️🙏🏻💜✨️

Very good food very quickly. Large portion sizes.

Lavash is a Middle Eastern restaurant located in the heart of Brighton. It has a warm and inviting atmosphere, with traditional Middle Eastern decor. It doesn’t look like much from outside, but the interior decor is beautiful. Although a bit pricey, the flavors are truly authentic. I recently visited Lavash with my partner for lunch. We shared the mixed kebab platter. It comes with grilled chicken, lamb çöp shish and handmade spicy lamb mince kebab (Adana kebab) served with bulgur pilaf, red cabbage, raw onion, salad, chilli & yogurt sauce. We ordered the veggie mixed platter as well but they forgot about it which is why they lose a point on service. We also tried the baklava for dessert, which was a nice sweet treat to end the meal. The baklava was tasty but tasted like it was a little old and had a bit too much syrup for my liking. For drinks, we ordered pomegranate juice, Turkish coffee and şalgam (turnip juice). The pomegranate juice was delicious. The Turkish coffee was well balanced and served with a Turkish delight. Not too bitter. Overall, we had a good experience at Lavash. The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was inviting. It was a shame we didn’t get to try the veggie mixed platter, I’m sure it’s yummy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a authentic Middle Eastern dining experience in Brighton. If you order a main per person and a few starters to share, you’re probably looking at paying £20-£30 per head. They also do 10% off for students.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Bill’s Brighton, the food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Thank you very much!

Attentive service from James who you could tell was working hard and food arrived quickly despite it being very busy. Thank you!

Fantastic place with tasty vegetarian/vegan options.

The food here is DIVINE. Really high quality stuff - got recommended by a friend and am so happy that it was. Service was quick but a bit cold, but the food more than makes up for it.

Lavash is a little gem tucked away in the middle of the big businesses of North Street. Great food!

I went here with some friends and just had the lentil soup. It came piping hot with some lovely flatbread. It was delicious and very wholesome food. I look forward to trying other dishes when I return. Highly recommended!

We arrived 8 of us for brunch we were shown straight to our table two people in our group had dietary requirements this was no problem lots to choose from to meet their needs. Food all arrived warm and on time. and food was excellent. We ordered some of the cocktails which were very good. Our server Tom was great fun he was engaging, chatty and looked after us superbly. Thank you Tom you made our lunch very enjoyable.

A very poor veggie breakfast with cold potatoes, toast and over cooked, lumpy scrambled eggs. Could have been a lot better.

Great food. Great vibe. Good portions

Best falafel wrap around actually fresh falafel the Turkish delights are delicious and the staff are great

Our first visit to Bill Brighton and it won’t be our last. The food was great, the customer was brilliant and the restaurant it really nice, although a little tucked away. This is however an ideal location if you want to eat before going to Komedia.

A birthday celebration. The waiting staff were extremely polite and attentive, but we were left disappointed by cold food and the brusk manager. We also overheard another diner complaining of having a hair in their food. One of our group is partially sighted and found the toilet area extremely difficult to navigate. You have to pass through a strange curtain and into a junk room to get there - it’s a bit like a cave with dark walls and poor lighting. We needed a torch! Later on, after being furnished with more drinks, the manager appeared and told us we have exceeded our booking slot by an hour, he said he needed the table back and presented the bill. There was nobody waiting to be seated at the door. Other empty tables also available. He said ‘no waiting’ and despite none of the card machines working effectively, eventually paid and left. Why did you serve us with another round of drinks and then kick us out? No-one told us we only had the table for two hours. Very inhospitable attitude. It marred the family event and we felt deflated and rather used. Bill’s is off the eating out list from now on. Will aim for local places and stay away from this chain.

Worst experience of my life, yesterday went there and ordered for takeaway food, completely different food given to me very little rice ( just about 2 spoon full) and got charged over £80. For 3 dish coofteh kebab and 4 slices of bughlava, terrible never going there again.

Great place in the heart of North Laine, I stopped in on a whim seeing the welcoming window and the tempting menu. And without regret, because I enjoyed it! The wraps are served in generous portions, well stocked and really tasty. It was really good. Good value for money. I recommend the Lamb Çöp Shish wraps with Halloumi cheese supplement.

Small friendly restaurant. Excellent freshly prepared food at very reasonable price.

The food is wonderful. I had the veggie main and the falafel were amazing. My husband had the lamb kebab and the meat was beautifully cooked and tender. Service is friendly and efficient and the seating areas are cosy and welcoming. The freshly cooked lavash bread is delicious, I could eat it all day long!

Website says opens at 8.00 am. Went there at10.00 am. Staff were rearranging furniture and left myself and other people waiting, only to be told they weren’t open and to come back. As if I would after that. I suggested they alter their website to be told rudely by the manager that they didn’t open until 11.00. Check your website and don’t be so rude to customers. I will never go again.

A really great place to eat, made better by the lovely family who run it.

Just had the best chicken shawarma of my life, everything really fresh bursting with flavour... A must try!

4 of us met for brunch at a prebooked table on Sat 3 Feb at 10.30. Hadnt seen each other for ages so we had lots to chat about. Food & drinks arrived quick & was nice but by 11.15 the bill was put on our table, before we'd even asked for it! We thought this was very rude & made us feel we were no-longer welcome, so we paid & went up the road to another coffee shop for more drinks. Also the unisex toilets smelt of urine. They need more regular cleaning, especially if men & women are sharing the same cubicles.

the food was delicious and the service was great!! The ambiance of the restaurant is amazing. The employees are very polite👍

We visited for dinner after work with friends and we were very pleased. We ordered the mixed meze plate and especially loved the borek and falafel. Mix kebab and chicken shawarma plate was huge! And it's delicious. We were very pleased with the food, everything was delicious. The atmosphere and decoration were very relaxing and warm, and waiters were very friendly.

Delicious food,super friendly staff, and amazing atmospher. I really recommend the restaurant.

Very good all round. Good value. Good food. Very pleasant environment. Thanks to all staff for great service. Top work everyone!

Honestly a hidden gem, despite its location on a busy street. Food was incredible - we got the shawarma and everything was super fresh (the salad was immense!). The staff couldn't have been better, friendly without being overbearing, and the atmosphere inside was really chilled. The restaurant is surrounded by fast food places like Burger King / Popeyes - give them a swerve and go here instead, you won't regret it.

Lavash is a lovely little Middle Eastern restaurant right in the heart of the city. The food is great and the service is better. Definitely worth a try.

Just because an eatery has built a strong reputation, doesn't mean it can afford to rest on its laurels. Bill's restaurant built its reputation on the quality of the food, which in the past has been exemplary, but based on a basic breakfast offering it is apparent something has been lost. My friend and I ordered a Traditional Breakfast and two coffees on Wednesday 3rd January '24. Despite having been asked if we'd like to start by ordering something to drink, the coffees took longer than the breakfast to arrive and were luke warm by the time we'd started tucking into the food. This breakfast comprised: 2 eggs (rubbery), a halved tomato (soggy, looked as if it had been sitting at the bottom of a pan for 3 days and tasteless), rashers of streaky bacon ( I wonder when these were first cooked as the rashers were dry, hard, cool), some mushrooms (hurrah: hot and tasty), a (cumberland) sausage (OK), 3 half slices of sourdough bread (also OK, but we had to request butter). The overall presentation was fair, but nothing like you see in the on line photos and the quality of the food was way below expectation and the plate it was served on was cold. It continues to amaze me that businesses that start small with high quality products, tend to lose their mojo when they expand to become a chain. I suppose people who work there, once familial and caught-up with the energy of something good, end-up just doing a job and appear to have lost sight of the point and purpose of something that was once distinguished by detailed presentation and delightful food, piping hot coffee. The service was both good and bad: despite the place being almost empty when we arrived, a waitress bid us to wait (she could have said, 'Go and sit anywhere' with a smile as there were so many tables available. Instead, she made us feel like we were doing her a favour: rude). The young man who eventually led us to our table and served us was pleasant and helpful, despite leaving the coffee to stand. For this service we did not tip. The decor of Bill's Brighton was excellent and elements resembled a theatrical set for a steam-punk vision of Dracula, but the food was tasteless and the service toothless, the overall experience lacking bite.

Nice food and atmosphere, good service, good location, accommodating to allergies, reliable food quality

Nice small place to have Turkish food. I had Shawarma plate with Shalgam drink. Quantity was more than what I expected, being Londoner I am used to have very small portion😁 but my plate was enough for 2 people.

Lunchtime we dropped in on our way shops. Welcoming place and we all had chicken wraps / haloumi wraps at a tenner per person. The fillings were incredibly generous and tasty. Their own bread that they make the wraps with is awesome. Really good value and a real hidden gem.

Lovely evening with my boyfriend and daughter. Loved the vegan feta starter and the Candy Cane cocktail. Great service from Ella & Ruby! Thank you ladies xx

I had a great time - great customer service. Ruby and Ella especially were so welcoming and friendly!! Thanks to all the staff.

Jess was brilliant , friendly , helpful and tbe food was great :-) 👍🏻 . Highly recommend . Had a great New Year’s Eve
