Green Kitchen in Brighton and Hove

As joyless a place as you can imagine. Incapable of taking feedback. Look at every criticism their business receives.

Great last meal. Will be missed 💔

Popped in for a coffee earlier today. Took an available table for 2 and told it was fine by waiter. Ordered a couple of flat whites which took a little while to come out. Atmosphere seemed really flat. It didn't seem overly busy as there were other tables available and staff didn't seem rushed in their work. No music or ambiance. Tables around us seemed to be waiting a while for orders, and the table next to us had their Sunday dinner order leapfrogged to the customers next to them who had been served before them. Other unhappy customers made for uncomfortable surroundings. Coffee arrived and was told by serving staff we had 5 minutes to drink up as we had not booked the table. No apology given, but made to feel unwelcome. Offered alternative table outside in the rain that still had grubby plates, crockery and cutlery from a previous order, or alternative was to put them in disposable cups to take away. Told server we can quickly drink up in 5 minutes (we were keen to leave anyway, and the coffee was luke warm which helped speed up the process). First time here for the 2 of us, but don't think we'll be returning based on first impressions. Sorry folks.

Very good vegan restaurant. After I discovered it, I only went here for the remaining three weeks. Very good English breakfast, fantastic burgers and delicious sweets. Everything organic and seasonal and local. A warm welcome and friendly service. 👍👍👍

Not proper wholesome home cooked vegan meals made with fresh wholefoods. But more just a long list of highly processed meat substitutes, most of which started off as powders in some factory.

This little cafe is fantastic. It seems as though the staff have maintained relationships within the community, as people walked in completely at ease and were familiar with the people and food. This does seem like the type of place you'd become a regular at, and if I lived nearby I think I'd be one, too. I had orange/ginger pancakes- probably an acquired taste, but as somebody who likes this combination it was fantastic! The prices are average for the area, which is impressive for an independent cafe. If you're looking for a cozy cafe with fresh, homemade food I'd definitely recommend this location.

Great places for vegan food. Very tasty and nice selection of choices. Staff were friendly and welcoming

Lovely little cafe with a good range of flavorful food, good coffee and great service.

Went in this morning with gigantic hangovers and ordered Refried vegan breakfast. Great service, nice coffee and stupendous spicy, vegan breakfast.

The staff were so rude , food was not good I didn’t like it at all

Lovely small cafe with friendly, helpful staff and wonderful and plentiful food. Great for gluten free options. Had a tasty Sunday lunch with a wide range of veggies including roast potatoes, parsnips, red cabbage and cauliflower cheese. The yorkshires with gravy were really good too. Reasonable prices. Very highly recommended!

Great little vegan cafe, food was amazing. The pancakes were sublime.

Small, independent, vegan cafe. Friendly staff. Great selection of delicious salads. Nice coffee too.

Really tasty breakfast and great service! They also make their own vegan bacon alternative which is 100% worth trying :)

Delicious gf vegan pancakes and a lovely vibe. Will be back!

Had a great variety of food to choose from, and each looked delicious. Beautifully cooked food, the pastry’s were the best I’ve had. Staff were friendly and helpful, would definitely recommend!

Visited for the first time on a cold afternoon and received a warm welcome. We had hot drinks and cake and were delighted to find the cakes we chose were every bit as good as non-vegan cakes for a change - carrot cake and orange polenta cake if you’re wondering. We’ll be back to check out the others!

Called today with our daughter as she raves about Green Kitchen! I had the Parsnip and apple soup with apple crisps (divine!) with crusty bread, husband had The Great (GK Rashers, sausage, scrambled tofu, mushrooms etc (delicious!) and our daughter had a baguette with sausage and rashers BBQ sauce. Iced latte, chai latte and a vanilla latte too. Oh! And husband had Booja Booja ice cream with Biscoff sauce! What a revelation for the parents as non-vegans! Would choose to eat here again and again! Lovely friendly staff too! Forgot to take any photos!

I've eaten here a few times and the food is always absolutely delicious! The service is friendly and it has a lovely atmosphere. Great for a coffee, fresh fruit juice, breakfast, brunch or lunch. Highly recommended if you love home cooked delicious plant based food!

Came here last week and had the breakfast which was lovely and highly recommended. However today I had the Refried Dreams and it was out of this world! It's a lovely little place with very friendly staff and exceptionally high quality food and coffee.

Lovely little cafe in a central location. The food is excellent and there's a good selection. Friendly and efficient service. Great for sit down cuppa or takeaway

This is our 2nd visit and again lovely friendly staff and amazing tasty food. Great presentation and menu.

I’d seen recommendations for this cafe on social media, so decided to visit. We decided on the vegan full breakfast, a coffee and two juices. All were prepared promptly and were delicious. Had lovely chats with the proprietor and staff, too, about the lovely bunting! Will definitely be back!

The Best vegan breakfast in Brighton. They make they’re own plant bacon which tastes amazing. Would absolutely recommend eating here, can’t wait to come back and try some of the other menu items. Staff were super friendly and the food was faultless.

Great vegan food. A great little gem.

Loved it! Delicious food and friendly staff. The full English breakfast was something else 👏

Pretty good vegan breakfast. Default sized is a bit short on quantity.

We wanted to start my friends birthday with a nice breakfast. She's a vegetarian so I did some research and found this place. So glad I did, as the staff were friendly and the food was amazing. It tasted good and kept us full until way past our normal dinner time. My first vegan breakfast and I'd fully recommend

Delicious food and very friendly staff and service

Went to Green kitchen for the first time today and was so impressed with it. The food is really fresh and tasty. The staff are all very welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be going again.

First time visit, on entering could see a few tables were reserved so sat in the window. Friendly waitress soon came over and took our order, seemed like a wait for food to arrive but the wait was justified as could see food was freshly cooked and was lovely and hot. Personal taste I prefer tofu with less turmeric still really nice though, I would go as far to say best breakfast I've had out. Lovely little cafe too, quirky and cute.

Heard great things about this cafe and they were spot on! Simple food, freshly cooked and full of flavour. We were particularly impressed with the homemade vegan ‘bacon’ rashers - some of the best we have had. The strawberry and dark chocolate pancakes were also a favourite. Highly recommend this fabulous eatery.

First time going here. Had the Sunday roast. Got the small plate for £10. Way beyond what I expected. Fantastic trimmings, every part was delicious and full of flavour. Small Plate was enough for me. Great vibe and friendly staff. I will come back to try their menu. Glad I gave it a try. A real vegan Sunday lunch treat :)

Gorgeous local cosy vegan cafe, great breakfasts and lunch, love the imaginative Mexican Dreams brunch bowl thingy, hope that never disappears from the menu... Friendly staff and happy atmosphere!

They have some amazing vegan food here. My girlfriend and I love going here for breakfast. The refried dreams is awesome, highly recommend 🥰 the staff are all awesome friendly people as well.

1000/10 - So delicious! We only come down to Brighton when the Green Kitchen Cafe is open, as our trip isn’t completed without a taste of their Pecan and Cream Cheese French toast. It was so good, out of this world. You wouldn’t know it was plant based, portion sizes were generous, a cosy atmosphere and the service is on point. They also have a wide variety of sweet and savoury brunch options and great juices too. Even better that this cafe is queer owned and so friendly. You should definitely visit, you won’t regret it!!🤩

I really really liked the vegan peacon buckwheat pancakes with vegan cream cheese and cinnemon sauce

Just a wonderful place to be. Everything about this cafe comes from love and dedication, it's one of the gems of Brighton. I've been going for years and I hope it stays here for years to come. Great food and lovely people, always.

Delicious food, made with care, a gem of a place! Very nice staff too.

Excellent value. Fantastic food. Owners are really lovely people.

Amazing food great service and overall a 11/10 expiriance

Lovely lunch, on a very cold Friday afternoon! We (including 2 large doggos) popped in, and received a lovely warm welcome from the team and the guests! The food was made to order, hot, and delicious! A little bit out of the main Brighton centre, but worth the little bit of effort. Will definitely be back!! 💚

very polite and thoughtful staff, great selection of food, and is a great place to sit and do work for a day :) please support this little local business 🌿🌿

I ordered a chai latte which came barely hot so had to drink it like a shot. Very lumpy at the bottom, it hadn't been stirred... Sausage baguette was ok. The bread was chewy and cheap. I must say the chilli sauce in the sausage baguette was very nice and hot. Chips and salad were ok too. I liked the fact that the waitress asked me which milk I would like for my latte and which sauce for the baguette. She was friendly too. I found the food and drinks overpriced.

Really lovely place. Very welcoming and the food is exceptional. Friendly and efficient staff. Big menu with loads of choice. Highly recommended. You won't leave hungry!

Good vegan breakfasts. Snacks and the bean food was great. Only marked down because it is not open every day.

Great vegan food, friendly staff.

Where do I begin! A SOLID 12/9 😂 The staff were wonderfully genuine and kind, the coffee was fruity, rich and delicious and the food was amazing… Hands down the most authentic, fat, crispy but soft croissant I’ve had being vegan five years.. Teamed up with the french toast with maple and bacon, which was huge and every bite was a joy.. Lew had the breakfast muffin.. don’t be fooled by the simple name .. this bad boy was stacked out with sausages, tofu, bacon and brown sauce with freshly baked muffins 🤤 Wouldn’t have ever come across this gem without typing vegan food into google and it was the second option. GO HERE! They also have amazingly beautiful hand painted patches supporting veganism.. And some amazing American style vegan chocolate I’d never usually buy elsewhere because of the price but the people are that lovely it makes it more fun to spend Money places ✨✨✨✨✨ Can’t wait to go back!!

Fantastic Vegan full English breakfast! Worth it. Will be back soon. Keep up the good service guys. 👍🏽

Popped in here for the first time the other day and will now be making it a regular place to drop in to. Lovely food, very friendly staff and a peaceful, ambient atmosphere. Dog friendly, which is nice. Felt like I could have sat there all day! I have been recommending it to everyone since.

We came here twice in our weekend visit to Brighton because it was so lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was incredible (especially the pain au chocolat and refried dreams) and we can't wait to come back. Thank you Green Kitchen team :)

This was a great last-minute find for us. I had the gluten free full-english and my friend the regular, both were so tasty and a great portion size. The tofu scramble was amazing, and the coffee was really good too. Great gluten free options and very accommodating! Definitely recommend.

The tasty, hearty vegan breaky set us up for our day exploring Brighton, so much so we returned the following morning. There is a really good menu with plenty of delicious dishes to choose from. Not only is the food A-mazing at Green Kitchen, but the people who work there are very welcoming and friendly. It’s also evident how passionate they are about vegan food & the local vegan community. There is a really cool atmosphere in this little cafe with nice little touches and we can’t wait to visit again!

Fantastic vegan food in a little cafe right by Preston Circus, just 15 minute bus ride from central Brighton.

Massive portions of delicious food for a good price. Cannot recommend enough! :)

A gem of a place! We ate so well here, which is no easy task as my husband has a super long allergy list! We went for brunch, and were bowled over by the amount of choice - including amazing gluten free options too. I love the work they do to support The Retreat animal sanctuary, including donating money from sales of their own bacon and steak that they make. We will definitely be back next time we are in Brighton! :-)

Breakfast is the best meal of the day, and these guys do it really well. Plus, staff are always lovely. I spilled my coffee all over me and they replaced it out of kindness (or maybe pity...)

The ‘Refried Dreams’ Mexican style brunch was truly memorable, I’m not actually Vegan but would definitely be back again!

This is a cute cafe but the service isn’t great - the staff don’t seem to know what’s going on. First we were given someone else’s food, then our food was given to another table, when we got it sadly it wasn’t amazing. Fresh juice was good! It’s great there’s somewhere to get a vegan fry up but the bread and sausages were pretty bad so I wouldn’t come here again.

Delicious breakfast (nice and hot!) and most importantly the plant-based rashers are to die for! Very nice staff too.

Food & staff both excellent. Cosy feel to this place, will definitely visit again

The cakes is nothing write home about but they have a friendly atmosphère.

Really great cafe, had a delicious brunch Pancakes & French toast! Definitely coming back to try more things, lovely staff!

The most delicious food! The vegan fry up is unbelievable, best breakfast I've had in Brighton. The staff are lovely. Also fresh OJ 😍 couldn't reccomend more!

Gorgeous little cafe where you don't have to think about what you're ordering because everything is vegan!! An amazing range of food on offer which tastes divine and the loveliest staff members who catered for us and our dogs so well!

I’ve been to a few places in Brighton in search for the best pancakes and these BY FAR are the best! The bacon 😍😍 absolutely amazing and the staff all lovely too.. we’ll be back 100%

Loved this perfect gem of a find. Food perfect and staff great. Well done guys, wish we had one to go to, near me.

Brilliant Vegan food and lovely staff. Food is cooked to order so be prepared to wait; it's worth it.

Lovely breakfast, great pricing, and lovely staff

I couldn't recommend Green Kitchen more. I ordered the tofu scramble and it was genuinely the best I've ever had. The chef advised that they make their own vegan Worcestershire sauce, and this seems to make a world of a difference. Fabulous service, excellent food...

My wife and I drove from London to support vegan business, nothing on your website or on google mention you're closed Sunday... On google you marked as open! It's a shame because you missed us as customers.

I really enjoyed my delicious pancakes from the Green Kitchen. The menu had loads of tasty looking options, I'm only here a short time but may have to come back! Staff were friendly and the place had a nice atmosphere.

I came here for my birthday breakfast last week and the food was incredible, my new favourite hidden gem 💎💎

Best vegan breakfast I have ever had, really cute vegan cafe!

We love this cafe! Staff are just so lovely, food is delish and prices are very reasonable. They make most of their own meat substitutes I think, which they also sell. Been eating here since they first opened and don't think I've ever had a negative thing to say about them. Baby also approves.

Loved our breakfast! Great for gluten free options and vegan bacon omg. Affordable and cute environment too :)

Delicious food ! HUGE portions. GREAT prices. LOVELY staff ❤️

Absolutely amazing food, great portion size and value for money. The staff are super friendly, my only recommendation would be larger tables and chairs but obviously the shop size kind of prohibits that. All in all, great place to eat.

So much choice, I wished I could eat it all. Will definitely return, lovely staff, dog-friendly.

Absolutely Amazing Breakfast. Hot and delicious. I had Gluten Free Vegan. The staff are super friendly. We are so glad we found this Cafe and will definitely recommend. We'll be back. Thanks Guys :-) You've set the bar very high.

Great service and fantastic food.

We went for breakfast ( 3 people) took a while to prepare the dishes ( 4 dishes) but they all came the same time , hot and soooooooooo tasty!!! Portions were huge, could barely finish but food was too good to not empty the plate! The girls were super friendly , the atmosphere very relaxed. We had a chat with them and they are using local producers and seem very implicated with the vegan community. We were super happy and will definitely be visiting again soon! P.s they sell vegan snacks and sweets as well(you should try the rice puff bar with chocolate ) ❤️❤️❤️❤️ You goooo animal warriors !✊

You know that feeling when you read about some place and then you even imagine how could it be getting into it and being there with all those feeling about feeling nice and well as you read through?! ... Well, what happened for me with the Green Kitchen Vegan Café was exactly like this: an absolute nice and lovely starting of the day with such a tasty, proper delicious vegan breakfast full of such good food all handmade from the lovely ladies running the place! Spot on the Smoothie bowl, the rashier tomato sandwich and those pancakes....humm, strawberries and choco chunks you could die for!!! Loved every step from Marina till Preston Road to get to discover this enchanting little tasty café in Brighton!!! Thanks for the amazing kicking start you gave me, loved that!

This place is an absolute gem. We came on an extremely wet Saturday afternoon while on a weekend in Brighton and it was such a haven. There were 5 of us and we had a variety of sweet and savoury food. It was all freshly cooked and delicious - special mention to the coffee, pancakes, smoothie bowl and avocado toast. The service was thoughtful and pleasant. If I had one of these where I live I'd be there all the time! Whether you're vegan or not (none of us actually are) go and enjoy the lovely food. You won't regret it!

Brilliant neighbour cafe with good, friendly service and great food

Amazing food and service. A must for all vegans and the plant curious.

Everytime I visit the food and service are amazing! Best breakfast, best roast, never had anything I didn't like 😋

The best breakfast of my life not just because of vegan also preparation, presentation and staff wow

Lovely food and lovely hosts. The roast was amazing.

We went for the Sunday roast and left very full and happy. Staff are always friendly and helpful and, if you don't know it yet, their vegan bacon is awesome.

Great place Fantastic bacon And I am not vegan ! Will return

I’m not quite sure what to say because it wasn’t that the food was bad, it was just incredibly basic, especially for the price. I like to support any vegan local businesses, but the place seems to lack organisation, thought and was generally a bit...

Food was good especially the bacon but the coffee seriously needs to be worked on. The flat white was watery and the milk not textured properly. Please work on this thank you. The coffee is very expensive to be given something no better than freeze dried coffee

Nice cafe. Vegan breakfast was tasty, especially the scrambled tofu. Staff were friendly and nice atmosphere.

Delicious Sunday nut roast. Best no cheese cauliflower cheese I've ever had.

Great vegan cafe, friendly staff and tasty food!

Excellent breakfast, very good value for the quality, and lovely staff!

Absolutely fantastic Vegan food , lovely atmosphere and dog friendly. If it was bigger, I am sure even more more people would use it.

Beautiful, cosy, great food, friendly staff
