Namul in Brighton and Hove

I love this new place, food is delicious and quick service. Great experience altogether. I will definitely come back.

Just an overall mid place, service was great but food was bad, which is ultimately not their fault as it’s basically just prep food being thrown together in about a minute. Not flavourless, just bad flavours that only come from the sauce and nothing else. Might be a bit spoiled with actual beef and not just minced beef, but it was honestly just hit after hit with no quality ingredients Details of what is in the dish should be available on the menu (ie what veggies). Menu was limited, but this is also not their fault. Overall, wouldn’t come back but the availability of readily made kim-chi could give the place some customers.

Good korean food, cosy small restaurant, authentic sauces. Would recommend for a quick lunch or dinner.

Ordered 3 meals and only 2 arrived. Waited and waited for the third but it did not appear even after we were told it would be arriving soon. They had clearly forgotten and didn’t want to say. After an hours wait no meal 🥘. Would not eat there again.

Namul Bibimbab is my new favourite food. Made fresh to order. Start with a base of rice or noodles, then add the veg and choice of sauce. Healthy and delicious!

Dropped in for lunch, we had three Bibimbabs, the Korean beef Famous Bulgogi and the Angry Calamari...brilliant blend of rice, vegetables and the meat & fish, all brought together by great Korean sauces. A couple of kimchi dumplings on the side...perfect. Kept us going for the rest of our afternoon, thank you!

Really fresh and tasty. Friendly service and good value. Limited outside seating in a buzzy side street

Friendly and patient service from the staff as I built my order, food was fresh, colourful & delicious, ready in a couple of minutes and devoured almost as quickly. One of my favourite places to eat in Brighton, based on my own experiences, it's been consistently excellent for years!

My partner and I had a takeaway from.Namul, we always very happy with the food ,ever so tasty and full of flavour, we love it there xx

Under £10 for a Korean Bibimbap. Pour sauce mix it with rice. Decent good lunch. Beware some ingredients are extra costs.

Really fresh and tasty food with homemade kimchi Friendly Man serving added to our lovely lunch experience recommend it

Didn’t know about this place until this evening when wanted to get something quickly before an event at the Dome. We both had a Bibimbap bowls which were tasty, very filling and great value. Lots of options for vegans and meat eaters. Superbly quick service, so pleased to have discovered it will definitely come again.

Great place for a bibimbap and guk as they offer a set with miso and wasabi peas... And they have loyalty cards which is good

Good fresh veggies over rice with a lovely spicy sauce (I picked my sauce). My vegan friend loved her dish a lot and raved over it and will go there again. Nice, simple flavors, fresh produce, great people and workers. Glad I went and I enjoyed my first biminibop (sp) but I wouldn’t mark it as my fav, and probably would choose other places first. I struggled between 4 and 3 stars and put it at 4 for freshness and staff. If you love simple flavors this is a great place.

This is another one of cynical establishments that gets by comfortably serving 'trendy' dishes to 'trendy' people who don't know any better. Why improve? Many such cases in Brighton. Anyway, ordered the mushroom option. It was really bad. The rice was completely unseasoned and dry and the veg was just a sloppy. flavourless mess. Avoid.

Fideos bastante deliciosos con fabulosas comidas en caja de bento pero muy impredecibles cuando ordené en línea: el plato que pedí era esencialmente completamente diferente al que tenía en la tienda a pesar de tener los mismos ingredientes. Recomendaría Namul solo si vas a comer allí

Como muchos restaurantes, el menú de Namul tiene una pequeña leyenda en la parte inferior. Una N muestra que un plato contiene nueces. Al tener una alergia a las nueces bastante grave, me aseguré de que lo que pedí no tuviera una N al lado. Unos momentos después de que comencé a comer, sentí que mi garganta se apretaba y la sensación de picor en la parte posterior de mi garganta. Le pregunté al personal si mi plato contenía nueces. "No", dijeron, "pero la salsa está hecha con mantequilla de maní". Miré en el menú, pero no había N al lado de la salsa. No podían decirme por qué no lo hizo. Si la leyenda NO hubiera estado en el fondo, por supuesto que habría preguntado de antemano, pero supuse que su leyenda reflejaba con precisión los ingredientes. Me ofrecieron una comida de reemplazo, pero no un reembolso. Quizás debería haber preguntado, pero estaba comprensiblemente preocupado por llegar a casa en caso de que necesitara mi epipen. He tenido una mala experiencia aquí una vez antes (se olvidaron de mi pedido), ahora dos veces mordida, nunca volveré.

Pedimos 86 de comida para una celebración familiar, la comida vegana apareció con un huevo frito encima, arruinando por completo nuestra comida familiar. Luego faltaba el tofu de nuestra comida vegetariana y habían reemplazado los fideos con algo más. Intentamos llamarlos, llamamos tres veces. Tuvimos que llevar toda la comida equivocada a su restaurante en Brighton y pagar el estacionamiento y resolver un reembolso. Realmente muy decepcionado con toda esta experiencia. No puede cobrarle a alguien casi 100 y entregar la comida incorrecta y luego no contestar el teléfono a su cliente. De Verdad? ? ? !

Estaba muy impresionado con la comida cuando la tuve en la tienda y decidí que me la entregaran hoy para variar. El pedido vino solo con las coberturas "principales" y las coberturas por las que pagué más, pero ninguna de las otras verduras que se encuentran en la descripción del plato y que obtienes en la tienda. Empapado en kimchi (¿supongo que para compensarlo de alguna manera?) Y solo luciendo muy triste. Claramente, no se molestan con los pedidos de entrega y no ponen el mismo cuidado que hacen por la comida que se come en la tienda, lo que es sinceramente encantador. Sinceramente, una gran pena: (

Mi primer contacto con la comida coreana me ha dejado preguntándome por qué nunca la había probado antes.La chica de la tienda fue muy útil al explicar qué eran las cosas y ayudarme a elegir. Me encantó que pudieras elegir tu propio arroz, coberturas y guardar. Probé el arroz negro, el kimchi y la salsa de chile. También tuve un lado de albóndigas. La comida estaba muy bien presentada, sabía increíble y tenía una buena relación calidad-precio. Definitivamente regresaré una y otra vez hasta que haya probado todas las opciones vegetarianas. Bueno para los veganos también!

Fui por primera vez recientemente. El restaurante está muy cerca de la Komedia en Brighton. Sólo una pequeña zona de asientos en la planta baja, pero nos abrieron el área del sótano, lo cual fue muy divertido. Básicamente, es una carpa con calentadores (muy necesaria en una noche fría). La comida y el servicio fueron buenos. ¡Trae tu propia cerveza!

I had the famous bulgogi rice bowl. It was alright. Could have had a bigger portion size. Too expensive for its size. The guy who served me didn't greet me at all and seemed rather dower. The girl working with him, however, was loud and boisterous when she was serving another customer. Very eery tone in her voice that made me want to stick hot needles in my ear drums. Also, as I was tucking into my scrumptious bowl of joy, I couldn't help but overhear the girl having a massive row with the boy. Perhaps manners should have been included in the training. Overall, good food, but staff really dampened my mood. Would not recommend to my friends, family or girlfriend. They really need to go over the training every now and then with the staff to make sure they are the best at what they do.

Mi compañero y yo estábamos buscando un lugar diferente para almorzar mientras estábamos en las calles el sábado pasado y tropezamos con esta pequeña joya. A pesar de que hemos probado la comida coreana, el amable personal explicó todo lo que necesitábamos para refrescar nuestros cerebros y los encontramos acogedores, informados y educados. Tuve el plato de arroz de pollo picante y estaba delicioso y no demasiado pesado. La sopa de miso nos calentó a los dos y fue un gran acompañamiento a nuestros platos principales.

Das Namul bietet eine koreanische Spezialität (Bibimbab) an. Es ist sehr fein und noch dazu gesund. Sehr zu empfehlen, da auch das Personal sehr freundlich ist. Im Winter hat es aber zu wenig Plätze um drinnen zu sitzen.

Pasamos por delante del sitio y vimos que tenia buena pinta. Puedes elegir la base (arroz, noodles...), el tipo de carne y la salsa. Las verduras están incluidas. Muy rico y sano.

Este fue uno de mis lugares favoritos en be & H, pero la calidad bajó por un tiempo (porciones miserables, menos variedad de ingredientes en el bibimbap), así que me alegré de que la oferta de hoy haya mejorado mucho. Me pregunto si se trata de un nuevo propietario / administrador, un miembro del personal estaba claramente atento al servicio.

Vine aquí a cenar, ¡y estuvo delicioso! Conseguí el arroz integral como mi base, pero la elección ganadora fue la berenjena. . . ¡encantador! Nos sentamos en la calle, y fue muy pintoresco. El personal en el interior era muy amable, en general una gran experiencia, dado 4 estrellas, ya que pensé que la comida no sabía tan fresca como en otros lugares, pero dado el precio asequible, no me puedo quejar :)

Excellent, tasty food that all the family love. Healthy options and delicious food. I love the way you can add extras to your rich dishes. A top choice for my 8 year old too.

I had the best bibimbap ever there! Also Ania and Rebecca are ultra nice. Would (and will) visit again

I've had the beef Bibimbap and absolutely loved it. The service provided by Ania was exceptional. I'll defenitely come back very soon :)

Had second bibimbab - the mushroom special my favourite. Leaves you feeling content and light. So tasty!

Very different type of 'poke-bowls'. I got the extra bulgogi on top of the mushroom selection! It was a great experience overall! The lady serving me was very nice, extra brownie points!

I've walked past this place 100's of times and often thought I should go in. Today was the day, and I did! I got the Tofu Bimimbap, after a lovely chat with the girl behind the counter who explained how it all worked. Packed with perfectly cooked rice, tasty, fresh veggies and a choice of sauces to die from. Rich with spice and tang. A bowl of absolute heaven. They cater for gluten free, vegan, veggie and meaties!The girls were a delight, smiley, welcoming, helpful. I am officially hooked. Literally the best food I've bought out without having to make it myself for years! Highly recommend . Peace x

popped in to grab s quick meal with a mate; two bibimbaps later, all done and full up. Service is good but not overfriendly; food tastes authentic but if you want to perch at the only inside table, you will need to protect your clothes from the incredibly sticky and not very clean surface. Could have sat outside, on the street as is proper in a street food place but they need to invest in some umbrella as the full force of the sun fries you

Wandering around those amazing Brighton Lanes, and I came upon 'Namul' I had a wonderful meal prepared by the delightful Anna. It was not quite Breakfast/Lunch (Brunch) it was more like Lunch/Dinner (Lunner) would that be? Anyway, it was very tasty food and I will be sure to return in the future.

First time we have tried Namur. Really tasty, great extra sauces available if you want to add more spice. Fresh and healthy, loved the seaweed salad. A new favourite.

Just ordered from deliveroo, the popular dish with bulgogi beef was plain and tasted bad, the price is not worth it at all

I used to love and rave about this place, this time will sadly be my last visit. The portions are now half the size (but at the same price), which doesn’t make sense to me. After having the wrong order twice, and waiting until finishing food for a hot drink that never appeared... we were unable to get a refund as it was complicated due to paying on card... which isn’t really the customers fault.

My first Korean food experience. My bowl of rice, veg, tofu and soy sauce looked uninspiring - all the constituent parts separate. But somehow the sauce and the way the veg is cooked and seasoned brings it all together into a delicious and satisfying meal-in-a-bowl. Fresh-tasting pickled veg just yummy. Seaweed salad side order unusual and really tasty. Inexpensive. Great place to watch Brighton go by.

Visited Namul last week, and due to the gorgeous weather in Brighton at the time, the lanes were quite busy - but Namul still managed to serve both myself and my friend some delicious bibimbap really quickly! I had the Korean beef with an egg and some kimchi, having never tried both Korean beef and kimchi before I was surprised by just how tasty it was. My friend had the aubergine bibimbap, she also said that it was amazing too. Anna and Lau (sorry if I've misspelled!) served us and were lovely. I'll definitely be visiting again.

We come back to this place again and again. This time we were recommended Gaji Gaji which is Korean for aubergine. It was absolutely delicious. They use fresh ingredients and the meals are reasonably priced.

So ...I haven’t been in Namul before I only ordered take away , but I will certainly order again . It’s flavoursome Asian food , decent ingredients. The bento box is good size . I was full ,after eating it all , my only criticism is get a little bit more of the pickled vegetables on the side I literally had a teaspoon of kimchi in my bento ( I love kimchi too much so that was my wtf moment with this dish ) but all n all I did enjoy my meal & will Definitely order again I just make sure I get extra portion of kimchi ;)

Namul is a great little place in Brighton, you can sit in the cafe or take the lunch bowls away! there is something for everyone! Meat, fish, vegetarian... whatever your choice, the food is fresh and delicious and the perfect size too! highly recommend!

Fresh, tasty, well seasoned, and healthy food option within the North Laine. I work in local offices and tend to regularly migrate here during my lunch hours - delicious Bibimbap.

Visited this cute little joint with my boyfriend for a relaxed dinner. The food is to die for - so so good - and the staff are always super lovely/ helpful/ smart. Today Mustafa and Davide served us. They greeted us with a smile as soon as we walked in and it's so rare to be served by staff that genuinely care about your dining experience that it makes such a difference when you get that sort of service. So thank you for that! Literally cannot thank/ praise the venue and its staff enough for such a stress free and happy dinner. The only one small thing about the venue is I wish it could be bigger to accommodate more people. Otherwise - great food, great service, great value, great decor. They do zoodles too!

Food is nice and healthy, staff are friendly. Good location and reasonable price. There are not many seats and they don't take reservation. It would be better if they served hot stone Bibimbap but it was also very nice as it is.

Popped in 630, pm, and was very pleased with maki, which were rapidly eaten. I ordered the chicken noodle soup,...

Un caterpillar se encontró en uno de nuestros bowl. Envuelto en la ensalada. Era repugnante, ya que podría haber comido. No es ni siquiera pequeñas. Que es enorme. ! Muy, muy decepcionados ya que uso para como mucho. namul

La comida era excelente! Podría decir que los ingredientes eran muy frescas. Algunos de los mejores platos coreanos que he tenido! Y el personal era muy servicial.

We have been here a few times with no problems and usually have an ok experience however this occasion we went as a group and after starting our food our friend pulled out a full size Caterpillar from their dish! There's no logical reason for this, surely the vegetables are washed before serving, or maybe not? This put us off all our dishes so we got our money back and left. Don't think we will ever go back, such a shame this neglect has tarnished our view!

Food was great, but not quite what we ordered, some confusion apparent in all communications with shop/restaurant. Refund offered and given on failure to correct, so just disappointing rather than bad service.

Food was nice but was not warm enough, apart from sushi which was warm and shouldn't be!

El personal es muy agradable. Pero sirven comida fría es un verdadero inutil. La única razón por la que no nos envíe la comida es que tenemos una breve pausa para comer, así que no podemos perder tiempo. Realmente decepcionante.

forgot to put chopsticks in the bag

Very late to arrive. Cold food. Restaurant un responsive when trying to get hold of them

30 minutes late, and that was after 25 minutes was added to the original delivery time. I tried to call to see what was happening, but there was no answer - five times! When it did arrive, the sauces for the bibimbap were missing. This spoilt what would have been a very good bibimbap. Namul: I will be calling you personally to complain. Every delivery you have made has had some kind of issue, and it looks like I'm not the only one. You really need to change how you deliver, or don't deliver at all.

Came back here for the first time in 9 months, and it has gone from one of the best places in Brighton to really poor.I visited on a quiet Sunday and the girls were so slow.The portions have become smaller, and you can't swap a topping, you have to pay. I also paid for a different extra topping too and they forgot it to add it.Shame because it used to be great!

I was very disappointed because Bibimbap was not hot at all. Rice was not nice. I don't really like a mini aluminium pot used as a dish.

Ordered few things but I realised there was a few things that I ordered were not in the delivery , tried to call back restaurant but no one answer the phone

Food was fine and arrived on time, but was coldish.

This little Korean place really stuck on me when I first saw it, I was searching for a Korean place for ages when I first moved to Brighton, so there it was. I tried it many times, and it was always really fresh and of good quality, without breaking the bank. Normally I would spend there around 8-10£ but I take normally also a drink and some toppings, but you can spend also as little as 5£ for a veggie's bibimbap, so that it quite convenient. The kimchi was not too spicy but very nice to add to another bibimbap. Really recommended.

Sadly one lot of dumplings were stone cold and hard. The whole meal was a bit cold and for £18 it felt a bit of a bad deal.

The sushi could have been better but the bimbimpap was amazing!

Amazing food, delivered a little later than expected though

Ordered this to be delivered at 8.30, ready for when my wife got home. They delivered it at 7.15. It was stone cold when she arrived home to eat it. Namul keep getting my orders wrong every time. Great food but I don't know how much longer I will continue to order from them. Food is also always luke-warm.

I did enjoy my Bibimbap from here, but as I've never had it before I don't know what it's supposed to be like! I was disappointed that the chicken was advertised as spicy and had absolutely no kick to it at all, there was a nice flavour, but no spice. The whole thing was kind of luke warm and I didn't know if it was supposed to be hot or cold? The flavours were delicious but I wouldn't be able to tell you if it was authentic or the best that it could be!

Due to traffic congestion, the delivery was delayed. But they included a free mochi for me, and they are really nice!! Love their customer service😊👍🏻

Food is good and delicious, I had alreay ordered it many time and I would continue ordered it in the future.

After taking 1hr15 to prepare, the delivery was an additional 20 mins later than they advised. When the food arrived it was stone cold.

Absolutely blown away but the food. It was our first time ordering and we weren't sure what it would be like. Was very pleasantly surprised. A sure firm favourite now. Lovely.

Really tasty and I have convinced myself it's probably healthy too!

Need I say more? I guess I have to for the word count. Went there to try something different but was really disappointed. Didn't know what to expect but had hoped for something hot, tasty and filling. But what I got for £6.20 was Some salad with cold rice and cold mushrooms on top. Even though they were speciality mushrooms, when cold they're going to be tough and chewy. The bowl lacked any flavour. For something that clearly was just plonked together from ingredients behind the counter, we had been waiting downstairs for over half an hour. Bizarre place

Sadly this was the worst meal I've had in years .... Everything was cold, and tasted old... I hate writing reviews, to be honest I don't write at all but this forced me. I took a bite out of the food, I couldn't believe it. It went straight in the bin.

My kimchi wasn't very fermented. I make my own kimchi and like it to fizz. That said, everything else was just about perfect. Tasty, wholesome food, delivered quickly.

Really tasty Asian treats, i had the kimchi and it was delicious. Great location and wide range of options to choose from

15 mins late than the restaurant amended delivery time, that`s fine, my place is far, and food is cold, should kept in a delivery warm box next time.

Except It hasn't been delivered yet...

Took a very long time, order was incomplete, arrived cold. We had to microwave our meal! both starters and mains.

It was raining the other day and i was walking past Namul and fancied somthing hot and nice so i poped in i found the staff there very friendly and happy to answer my question the guy behind the counter was new he said he had only been in the uk a few months but was able to recommend a sauce to go with my meal i had the meal deal a main , soup , choice of two puddings fantastic value for money and i like how i can add extra toppings i had two fried eggs added to mine the hole meal came out steaming and the miso soup is the best i have had I really enjoyed it all the food tasted fresh and had alot of flavour the gosari is also very nice the place was clean and I didn't have to wait long for my food i am funny about where i will eat being a chef for almost 17 years i can safely say you will enjoy your trip to namul i was only there the other day but i will be going back for more this Wednesday

The food was delicious - a party in my mouth with every forkful. Everything tasted fresh and and was very flavoursome. I ordered a Red Bean Hoppang Bun and was phoned by the restaurant who provided excellent service and offered me extra Chocolate Mochi in place of the bun. The delivery time was dead on the time that was provided by the restaurant and the delivery driver was very nice. All in all, an amazing takeaway; I will definitely be ordering from Namul again.

Заведение совсем небольшое, но еда просто изумительная! Я взяла меню- мисо суп+ рис с угрём и закуска (горошек в васаби), муж традиционный бибимпап с говядиной, всё было очень вкусно, всё удовольствие меньше 10 фунтов. Можно выбрать тёмный или обычный рис и собрать свой индивидуальный бибимпап из разных ингредиентов, но мы решили не мудрить.

Smaller portions than usual and a bit cold. Ordered red bean hopping bun but delivered vegetable hopping bun which I didn't want!

Waiting for half an hour along!!!!!!!!!!! And when the arrived all food getting cold!!!!!!!!!

The food is not enough. I paid for so expensive

Told it was going to arrive at 19:45, then emailed saying the restaurant had added 10 mins on, so 19:55. It is now 20:20 and still waiting. Nearly 2 hours after ordering. Terrible!!!

Exceptional fresh food as always, just let down by delivery times once again!

Great Food! Ordered a couple of times and was never disappointed! Always tastes fresh and healthy!
