Mange Tout in Brighton and Hove

Really nice and flavourful latte (that didn't just taste like milk) although a little smaller than I had hoped for. I had a nicely flavoured veggie omelet and the salt and pepper mills on the table were a perfect touch for freshly ground pepper!

My favourite brunch in town. Food is always amazing, great coffee and juices. Lunch and evening food is excellent too and the wine selection is brilliant. Always wonderful service and such a welcoming vibe. ❤️

First tine at Mange Tout for perhaps 18 months..food considerably better, wine still not as good as the food..it was rammed, Friday night at 8pm but dio mio it was noisy majing it imposdible to have any conversation..sound dampening would be transformative..

One of my favourite places to go for a treat. Delicious food, cosy atmosphere and super friendly staff. I always recommend to friends visiting Brighton.

What a lovely place to come and enjoy and eat,great food and service I would highly recommend this place to come and eat

Absolutely superb! I went for lunch and will definitely have to try the brunch after this. Maybe even tomorrow it was that good haha! The place is buzzing and the service was so nice and friendly, being just the right amount of attentive. From the moment you walk in you are looked after by all the team with a smile and I cannot stress enough how helpful and welcomed I felt - fair play guys, service is spot on 👏🏻 And then there’s the food, oh boi! Not being the biggest fan of French cuisine this was a little experiment for me and I thoroughly, THOROUGHLY, enjoy it. The food is so good, it really is, and the portions aren’t too shabby either, though it’s not cheap by any means. I started with the snails which were garlicky and buttery, served with bread to mop up all that goodness afterwards! A little small but made up for it in taste and class. Next I had beef bourguignon that came with an insane Gruyère mash and of course a delightful, rich and flavourful sauce. The fried legumes on the side were banging as well, and the whole meal was just fabulous. The tea came with a cute little meringue which was a great touch. They have a large drinks selection but the juniper and rose tea was really really good. Try it! All in all this place has gone straight up there on my list of not only spots in Brighton, but also everywhere else in the world. Great little spot, quality French food and even better service!

Popped in twice whilst in Brighton. First visit was just for drinks and second was for food!! Both occasions were excellent. Drinks were a little pricy but very enjoyable. Food was fairly priced. Beef bourguignon was very nice and beef was amazingly cooked.

Superb food.The fusion between the ingredients worked perfectly.A real treat.There are cooks and there are the pros who produce sublime meals

The food is fresh and excellent. There is plenty of vegetarian options. The eggs Florentine are delicious. The pastries are homemade and there is way less fat than in the ones bought in supermarkets. The staff is also very nice. One of the best brunch places in Brighton we tried so far.

We discovered this gem on a previous visit to Brighton when we popped in for a drink before a performance at the theatre and decided we'd come back. We booked a table for dinner on a Friday - and I'm glad we did because the place became very busy very quickly. All the staff were absolutely wonderful, so friendly and helpful and the food was beautiful. I believe the owner/chef is french and this is reflected in the food which is very french influenced. It is very well worth a visit but I'd strongly recommend booking a table before turning up to avoid disappointment.

While my wife had hair cut and all the extras at Lush Hair Lab I wandered around the Lanes and looked for somewhere for lunch. Walked back and almost next door to the Hair Lab is MangeTout and having read the menu decision made! We each enjoyed a tasty bowl of bouillabaisse with amazing quantity of fish and seafood and found the smaller serving more than enough for lunch. Excellent menu choices; first class service and very friendly and helpful staff and very reasonable prices. Now working on wife to book another Hair Lab visit so I can try other items on the menu. One point it does seem understandably to get very busy at lunch time so could be worth booking if that is possible.

When I think of breakfast, I think of MangeTout 👍🏼 delicious food, great drinks and super friendly, beautiful staff! It can get a bit loud when lots of people are in, but it shows the good vibes and it becomes silent when food arrives due to food tasting soooo good.

The brunch was not up to Brighton "standards" unfortunately. The food was nice but that is all and when you are in Brighton it is not enough. Hollandaise was really nice but everything else just OK. Flat white not punchy but milky. Many other choices around to try.

Very good steak and truffle chips

Great food and service. Well worth a visit.

Lovely, fresh, delicious food. The menu is always varied and interesting. Great, friendly service too. It gets busy for lunch so wise to book.

Great breakfast/brunch spot in Brighton. We had croissants coffee and lovely eggs royal and omelette with salmon. Service was also very attentive and friendly. Mercì

Have been to this restaurant a few times in the past. Today was the last. Over £17 for two coffees and two pan o chocolat. Shocking.

Food was really great and the perfect size, the people working there were really friendly and helpful with suggestions. The music was a bit too loud but i did enjoy it when they played cumbia, but then they kept changing the playlists and it was a bit overwhelming to jump around from one style to another but it was ok

Went here for brunch with my partner after reading reviews online that it was fab! Very so-so to us compared to a lot of other places to eat in Brighton, partner had Camembert but was slightly dissapointed that it was fridge cold and the mayo sauce was missing from the dish. I had moules frites which was good but nothing special, overall not worth it for the price unless you’re really into your French food or want somewhere near the station to eat.

Absolutely the best place to be in Brighton! The freshly cooked food is a true delight, offering an authentic taste of France. The Bavette is cooked to perfection, the Chicken Cordon Bleu is expertly prepared, and the truffle frites are simply delicious. The recent repainting and redecorating have made the place even more cozy and inviting. A big shout out to the team—they're incredibly friendly and welcoming. We were checked on several times, and the staff’s attentiveness really stood out. Massive Well Done to everyone!

I revisited this lovely bistro with my twin daughters after they kept reminding me about the best scrambled eggs they had ever had when aged four .... Two years on, it did not disappoint. Same french passionate owner... prices are fair and the food is great! Keep going! Merci to the owner. I highly recommend this place. Jc and the twins.

Really lovely little place in the fabulous North Laine area. The staff were attentive and friendly, and service was quick and efficient. The food was outstanding, especially the bread. I had the sausage and egg on sourdough but the highlight was the super tasty spinach and the really flavoursome tomatoes. Very much worth a visit even though there's so many amazing places to try in the area.

Overall: didn't really live up to its appearance on a vegan friendly list. There was one menu item option and an option for just vegetables Pros: excellent staff and service, great coffee Cons: the vegan mange tout was dry and lacked flavour They charged us £1 for oat milk (in lovely lattes). It's 2024. Most places have stopped with that nonsense. Generally, just a bit higher priced than most brunch menus in town. It was very loud (music and acoustics of guests), which can always be a positive if you're looking for it! Just wasn't for me today. If I were vegetarian, I would have loved it, but I'd say it's generally missable for vegans, with better options elsewhere.

Good brunch spot in the sun and really great orange juice

Good and atmosphere was amazing. Staff were friendly and helped guide us to something yummy. Coffee was on point and everything about the Experence was wonderful

I went here with my daughter for brunch, It was our 1st ever visit, it was absolutely fantastic food, very friendly staff and the restaurant had a very relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend.

After a walk around Brighton, we found mange tout. Really good portions of food, really tasty, the staff were really welcoming. I'd highly recommend

Booked this cafe for my daughter’s birthday. The interior wasn’t anything special but the food was cooked and presented to a very high standard. I had eggs royale, my husband has the full mangetout and my daughter had the classic mangetout muffin. We were all very happy with our choices and the eggs were poached to perfection. Would definitely return and try another dish.

Had such a great breakfast / brunch for my birthday at Mange Tout! We had Eggs Royale, Classic Muffin and a breakfast. Cooked to perfection and would highly recommend.

Fave informal food spot in Brighton.

We came for brunch but were so attracted by the lunch menu that we ordered lunch instead. The food did not disappoint. We cleaned our plates, even our toddler devoured the fried gnocchi with pistou and chicken cordon blue. Really friendly staff as well, doing a great job on a very busy and packed Sunday brunch/lunch service.

Great brunch and lunch options, prices slighty above average but food is good quality. The location is nice and chilled despite being on a very busy street (difficult to catch a table after 12 here).

Good food. Nice people. Had a brilliant time! As good as my last visit! Well done.

Ended the night beautifully with a delicious authentic French meal! Started the with dark chocolate tea by Waterloo, although it was not French it was a good beginning as it was so nice. For mains had the bouillabaisse and stuffed squid which was flawless. Dessert was the clafoutis which reminded me of bread pudding with delicious cherries. Definitely mange tout in French as we ate everything! It would be nice if they had il es flotant but I would be gutted if they did in future because I don't often hang out in Brighton.

Amazing French toast, thank you!

Sensational food. Outstanding service. Great ambience. One of the best places we’ve eaten for dinner in Brighton, would come back in a heart beat.

Food was very delicious, place is small, service is average to good.

Excellent food and coffee. atmosphere and Team, even ran up the road to bring the croissants we forgot to take. Tx guys.

Had lovely brunch here at the weekend. Perfect eggs, good quality bacon and sausages, and delicious hollandaise! Looking forward to trying it one evening.

A really chill place. My current fav Latte place for sure.

Staff are amazing. Love the energy they bring to the café!

Had a great dinner here last night. The pork in the first one is super tasty and the bread are crunchy. Also healed by the wonderful Creme Brulee of the second photo. The service is the best, got infected by the energetic vibe of the people here.🙌and also the music played are difinitely my type. Should’ve ask for a playlist!

Fantastic restaurant. A regular for us

Last night's dinner was a sumptuous feast! My cheese tartlette dish was decadent. Layers of thick gooey cheese melting around bits of bacon and potatoes. My fellow diners praised the hearty, tender steaks and moist pork belly. Sides of legumes added crunch and flair. To conclude our meal, bread and butter puddings with ice cream and fresh berries cleansed our palettes. Highly enjoyable.

A really nice bistro (went for dinner). Interesting, tasty, memorable takes on French dishes. Very friendly service.

Love this place, wanted to go for ages! Then I did... can't wait to go back. Dog friendly too 🥰

Just had the most delightful morning yesterday Mange Tout in Brighton! 🌟 Since opening in 2009, this charming bistro has captured the hearts of locals (and mine) with its fresh, quality-focused menu. 🥗🍷 I enjoyed a sparkling glass of bubbly paired with their signature vegetarian Mange Tout muffin—absolute perfection! 😋🥂 Highly recommend stopping by for a taste of their locally roasted coffee, sustainably sourced tea, and natural wines.

What a fab cafe. We had brunch here and the atmosphere was just lovely. Staff were so cheerful and friendly and the food was delicious. My daughter said "that was the best breakfast I've ever had" (she had the salmon royale). Highly recommend a visit.

Delicious recipes, but really not recommended for vegetarians/vegans/gluten free. The place is tastefully decorated but incredibly noisy.

I like the atmosphere, and the waiter/waitress are very nice. When I ve got nostagie of French food .I always go over there.

Fabulous breakfast, really delicious food and the mange tout team are lovely.

Delicious food, great ambience and decor

great food, terrible service. waited 50mins for food. the table that arrived 20mins after me got their food first. No apology was forthcoming, i had to squeeze it out of them and they then admitted my order ticket got lost. Another member of staff was walking off as I'd engaged him to ask about the food. seems they are up their own bottoms. Oh, and the sausages taste full of fillers, not the best quality

Good, friendly service. The mini meringue accompanying our coffee is a wonderful sweet treat bonus. Always been one of Trafalgar Street staples,so long may it remain for the enjoyment of all.

Great french bistro in Brighton with excellent food - to please carnivores and vegetarians alike. Excellent brunch and lunch menu - with dinner later in the week/at the weekend. Enjoyed dinner so much we've booked again for this week.

Good food, excellent service. Very enjoyable experience.

What a lovely brunch place. Good quality food & great value for money. Good portions. Super yummy hashbrowns.

Nice ambience. Egg Florentine very good. Coffee mediocre. Granola a disappointment - basically some fruit with a dollop of yogurt and hardly any grains

We had the most amazing brunch with my husband. The vegan breakfast is a dream. Great service from Joe who made sure we had everything we needed. We will be back.

Superb lunchtime cafe/restaurant . Excellent service and food. Well worth a visit.

I had a tasty brunch (eggs Florentine), I would have liked a larger portion but it was good. Nice and central in North laine, close to Brighton station and lots of cool shops

Always a must when in Brighton.

Fabulous experience! We went for dinner, and every dish was exquisite. The service was perfect - attentive but also with enough space to enjoy yourself. The most memorable meal of our trip, and not too expensive either. We will be back whenever we return to Brighton!

Lovely cafe. Grest for an afternoon drink and non sandwich options available.

Lovely wine, outstanding food bursting with flavours, attentive and friendly service - we had a wonderful evening, thank you! Highly recommend!

Went here for a colleague's leaving breakfast. Absolutely loved it. The food, the service, the staff. It's a must visit for Brighton trips.

Had breakfast at this place before my sight seeing in the city and it was a very good experienced. The place was not busy at that time and got seated by window. Staff were very friendly, quick and accommodating. I had the Madame Croque Monsieur and I enjoyed every bite. It was so so so good and very tasty. The Capuccino was very good but wishing the cup would be a bit bigger. I highly recommend this place to visit when you’re at Brighton.

We have a great evening enjoying amazing food with lovely staff, will definitely be coming back. Andy & Jo

Absolutely first class lunch. The scallops were brilliant. Ambience just right on a pouring wet day. Thank you.

This was our 2nd visit to Mange Tout and it was even better than our first time. The stand out features are that this is authentic, fresh cooked, quality food. The team are friendly and knowledgeable, giving us great understanding of their small-producer wines. Service was efficient and engaging but un-hurried. We had a perfect evening. Can’t recommend highly enough. We will definitely be returning.

Best breakfast I have had in a long time

Lovely restaurant. Great food. Excellent friendly service. Tiny observations - The fish cakes were too peppery. The walls could do with some art.

The food was AMAZING, the staff were so kind and honestly the entire experience was great. I will definitely be coming back regularly!

Really tasty brunch and drinks, lovely staff and quick service - can’t wait to go again!

Unfortunately they don't advise when they change a classic like the crème brulé. The salad was soaked in vinegar. Still one of the best french restaurants in Brighton

Great for brunch. Fantastic coffee and excellent food. Very friendly service and welcoming of our two dogs. Very busy by 11am so would recommend going a little earlier than that.

Ordered eggs royale and a mocha. The eggs royal was nice but the coffee was tasteless. Don't recommend the coffee here at all

Went here for a birthday meal with boyfriend. Had been to Mangetout a few years ago when it was in the Lanes but the new Mangetout is very different. The food is still superb (we both had the duck and then the creme brulee) but the wine was disappointing. Very little choice of wine too so had to have what was available, which was overpriced for cheap french white. Venue is very informal, but service was good.

We randomly popped in for lunch. We had the crispy skin sea bass and sea food bouillabaisse with saffron potatoes. It was amazing. We spent 3 weeks in Brighton whilst on holiday from NZ and ate far too much. Both myself and my wife agreed that this dish was the best dish of the trip by far. I remember I shook the chef's hand.Fantastic food, service and atmosphere.

I really rate this place; last time I visited I had a really nicely cooked Sea Bass. This time I opted for leg of rabbit with gnocchi, leek and sun dried tomato in a very tasty sauce. Absolutely delicious. Ditto the lasagne that my wife ordered. Also very friendly, helpful service (they charged our phones for us as we are). Nice informal and welcoming ambience. Reasonably priced too. Well worth a visit.

Update: every time I come in here I am reminded that eggs Benedict is in essence a French dish. Incredible doesn't do it justice. The ever present throng of happy foodie diners don't do it justice. If you care about your "Bene's", this is your place. 2021: Absolutely brilliant. Lovely atmosphere, a warm welcome, nice staff and most importantly, best eggs Benedict I've had in a long while. Both the Benedict royale and the full vegetarian were delicious. Great oataccino and enjoyed the rooibos tea. Will be back for sure.

Best veggie omelette this side of worthing

We love this place, visit at least once every few months. The service is great and the options plenty, and nice wine to boot 🍷

Great food and great vibes at Mange Tout! Didn’t have a booking and the staff very kindly accommodated us (a group of 6) with minimal waiting time. The food was incredible and very filling, highly recommend it for breakfast for anyone in Brighton!

A superb experience from start to finish. Excellent food, superb and friendly service and a good buzz around the area

Another visit for us to this fantastic French bistro last night. The place was bustling and we were seated swiftly. I enjoyed a succulent free range chicken leg with gnocchi and truffles. My partner devoured a perfectly cooked bavette steak and fries. A side of legumes and we were set for a tasty dinner. It would have been inappropriate not to have finished with dessert. One creme brule and a huge serving of bread and butter pudding left us incredibly satisfied. C'est tres bon.

Had the full mange tout breakfast. Very filling really loved the chipotle sauce. Perfectly poached eggs lovely oozey yolks !

The brunch is so good. Nice atmosphere and super friendly staff especially Joe!!

Delicious food and friendly service! We'll definitely be returning!

We had a wonderful lunch time here today. lovely food,lovely staff, lovely atmosphere. I am Japanese and my English is clumsy, but the staff were kind and helpful to me. (His name is John).I really appreciate for it. And I asked him to recommend menu and I ordered a croque monsieur. It was so delicious! I will definitely come back.😊✨ 友人と今日ランチで初めて訪れました。 素敵なメニューにスタッフ、雰囲気でお気に入りの場所になりました。 忙しいにも関わらず、私の不自由な英語に対しても、丁寧に対応してくださったスタッフ（確かジョンさんという名前でした）に感謝いたします。 そしておすすめのサーモン入りのクロックムッシュは、ボリュームたっぷりで最高でした！また絶対に来たいと思います☺️

What a delicious meal, our waiter/manager Stephane was attentive and really fun, he had excellent wine knowledge and recommended le petit fanet which complimented our food perfectly. Will definitely be back when in Brighton!

Seemed like a good idea to go here to celebrate a friends birthday, as previously we've enjoyed everything about this restaurant, sadly far from the case on this visit. If you're a vegetarian you are going to leave here hungry - very limited options on the menu, especially if you're not overly keen on fried aubergine. We tried to work our way around the lack of choice for a starter by ordering the 'saladette' and some cheese. The saladette never arrive, luckily someone else in our group had ordered bread so we were able to make cheese open sandwiches. Mains equally terrible, tartiflette had raw potato in it and the risotto, although lovely was miniscule. Best thing food wise was the desert, pear tart, which we ate hungrily and enjoyed. The restaurant itself was busy and cramped, so much so that I was asked to sit right next to the door to the one (grotty) toilet. It's the kind of place where it's so noisy everyone starts shouting to hear each other and when the whole small room is doing that it gets progressively more deafening. A couple of comments about the service. The bottle of wine we ordered was delivered to the table in a chemistry flask, we never saw the bottle we'd ordered, leaving us in a position where we had to trust they hadn't just filled it up from a box out the back. And lastly, in what sums up the whole visit really we ordered Mimosa's for a digestif to be told they didn't have any orange juice and would we mind if they made it with pear juice instead. Displayed behind the bar was a massive box of oranges so we asked the server if they could just use those, he went away and came back to tell us they can only squeeze oranges in the morning. Customer last.

A delicious brunch on a Saturday morning. Eggs poached to perfection and tasty bacon. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good coffee. Get in early as this will get busy. If we’d arrived 10 minutes later we’d not have got a seat.

Let’s start with the positives. The service was mainly very friendly but with one staff member a little abrupt. The atmosphere is great, just the right noise levels and ambiance, with a rustic feel; including the menu on a large chalk board on the wall. Now the negatives; the wine was served in a carafe which was unpolished and dull. The wine was cloudy with sediment at the bottom. However, as we looked around, other diners’ wine was also a bit cloudy! The snails starter was almost tasteless, with barely any sauce remaining in the shells. Finishing on a positive; the mains of pork and fish were very good, as were the truffle fries. This was our third visit to Mange Tout but easily the least enjoyable. Not much to change to win us over, but the venue only just made it to a 4 star review.

Simply amazing! My first visit and I'll definitely be back

Four of us went to dinner 8pm on saturday night having little idea of what to expect food wise as there is no evening menu on the website so we relied on pictures taken of various menus on the chalk board. We were shown to a small table in the middle of the room which felt very cramped and the room was noisy. Drinks arrived quickly as we chose from an interesting chalk board settling forsharing olives,bread and Charcuterie to start then Rebrochon Tartiflette, Contit Duck leg with black pudding, Moules Marnieres and Red Mullet with scallops. Every mouthful of every plate was perfect as were the wines drunk with it. The Lemon tart pudding and the pastis were also excellent. The plates were not large and the prices were not cheap, but it was certainly worth the money. the staff were friendly and professional and there when you needed them. The whole experiance reminded me of the atmosphere and food we had eaten in bistros in france in the 1970's and the fact that the place was packed and the table was small just made it for a great evening. Highly recommended.
