Love this place. The vibe, food and coffee that the young female staff bring, to this coffee shop, is superb.

In this day and age when the new pubs are actually coffee shops, there everywhere, it’s incredibly refreshing to go into a coffee shop that has got it just right.. Superb little coffee shop, the food is on another level compared to other coffee shops along with the expertly made coffee, even when they are making tea which is sometimes my preference, the same amount of love goes into the making of that tea, love that, that alone speaks volumes. It’s also exceptional run, not just saying that, Albina and Iryna really know what they are doing, they have simply found that right balance of interacting with customers while serving excellent food along with first class beverages, hot or cold, all while chilled music fills your ears which really sets the wonderful tone and ambiance. A rarity, a really good coffee shop, done right!

Ground ofrece fácilmente el mejor café en Kemptown, posiblemente incluso en Brighton. Siempre garantizado una cálida bienvenida. La decoración es sencilla, luminosa y relajante.

Nice little place. Great coffee. Nice atmosphere. Pleasant staff. Since I posted my review of Ground, six years ago, they have moved up the road to a slightly smaller premises, but the coffee is still as good and the staff, still as friendly.

Avoid the gluten free friand. Rubbery, weirdly solid, lacking in flavour, and £3. Coffee at 33 in Trafalgar St. does a whole slice of lemon polenta cake for £3.50. The texture of which delights. The espresso was just about ok. Slight metallic taint.

We love Ground, it's our favourite local coffee shop! The new location is great and the fact that they now do brunch is brilliant, we tried it for the first time today and the ultimate bacon butty is possibly the best bacon butty I've ever had. Coffee from Pharmacie Coffee Roasters is delicious and well prepared, and the staff here are always friendly. There aren't many places you can get coffee and brunch for £10. Just a lovely atmosphere, nice music and chilled vibes, a great coffee shop.

Rainy day coffee stop with a friend from out of town and where do I start. We didn’t get coffee! A customer at the counter having a nice long chit chat with the lady serving who didn’t even see the three of us and was in no rush to end the chit chat. So we decided to sit down and see if she would come over after saying she would text her later etc. She obviously doesn’t own the business as she didn’t engage until I sarcastically said thank you as we left! I love supporting my independent local hang outs. But the establishment or employee needs to make that effort. Ended up at our other local Portland where the coffee was brought to the table after we ordered.

Was a bit scary going in and realising that there is no price list for the coffee. I am a student so always trying to save money 😅 but they have very good coffee and use Oatly Barista Edition which is always a plus. The owner is super friendly and clearly has a passion for coffee. An oat flat white cost me £3.2, perfectly normal pricing 👌

Perhaps the cost of appearing edgy and eclectic, this location has sacrificed basic hygiene standards. Perhaps it had been a very busy day but none of the tables had been wiped down and the tea cups/pots were dirty. The ‘Jack Brown’ I believe it was called although reasonably priced, lacked flavour and tasted liked something a child had made at school.

Nice coffee as from Pharmacy coffees which we love. However, shocked to have been charged 3.80(!) for an old croissant with 1 slice of cheese and 1 slice of tomatoe. Brighton is turning into a place that is taking the piss. Next time I'll check the price first as I do not want to be part of supporting this such business. There has been an increase of hipster cafés that pretend to be special and not a chain and that deserve to earn with their little business. But seriously - this is the reason why people turn to cheaper chains. It's your own fault if you're losing out. I'm not paying 3.80 for a croissant again, that you bought for 45p at Aldis .

This is quickly becoming my favourite place for coffees and a tasty vegan sandwich in Kemp town. The staff are super friendly and are very accommodating always helping me avoid my allergies. The vegan sandwiches are super tasty (and inventive - never just boring carrot and hummus!) and the coffees are out of this world. I would not hesitate in recommending this coffee shop. Thank you so much Jamie and team!

I don’t know what’s happened to this place. I’d been a few times before and thought it was incredible. The branch in Lewes is a must-visit place for me too, but I was really disappointed with my most recent visit to this one. The customer service was pretty poor. They got my drink wrong, and when the barista brought over the correct one, he loudly banged it down onto the table without saying anything. It was also not very nice. The food was mediocre and I don’t think they know what vegan means. My food tasted like it had butter in it, and they also gave me extra butter for the bread. I’ll still go to the Lewes branch, but I’ll not bother trekking all the way up to this one again.

Grinder not working properly (somewhat ironically given the name). 15 minute wait for an Espresso, which was sour and disgusting as the beans were burnt by the grinder. Horrible overpriced coffee and slow service. Shame because a nice cafe is completely let down by bad management. The owners rude response says it all really. Unwilling to listen / improve it seems - the acrid coffee flavour has been an unresolved problem for months..

I am keen in speciality coffee wherever I go to around the globe. I don’t recommend this place for coffee. The taste is BAD and I couldn’t drink it. My wife also had a bad flat white coffee! Mine had a taste of uncleaned old Aeropress coffee kit which seems made me able to smell it in my black coffee even before I tasted it. I asked if they are a speciality coffee place? They answered: “Indeed”! They only have a one type of filter coffee which is the aeropress method. The staff are NICE and they might serve other good products that I haven’t had.

It was OK. The food was pretty good, however the service was extremely slow. There was only one waitress across the entire restaurant and she did amazing and told you as you came in that she’s by herself. However, it took about 30-40 minutes for our food to be made. The pancakes are nice and fluffy. If you get the mixed berries make sure to remember they are frozen berries which are just let out to defrost. The others who were with me got The Hash and Isla’s breakfast from what I can remember, and both said there was too many potatoes as well as they tasted like they’d come from a freezer. The staff are quite friendly and two other staff members came to help out. Overall, the restaurant has a beautiful layout and food is nice, I just wish there was better service as it turned people away from this beautiful restaurant.
