Post House Café Brighton in Brighton and Hove

Incredible Sunday Roast. Congratulations. We will repeat

Molly was absolutely lovely and the roast dinner here can only be compared to a spiritual experience 👏👏👏👏sensational vibes for coffee, food and always lovely staff

I was served by the 2 mollies today who were an absolute delight. Funny charming and professional both with great attitudes. Will most definitely be back

Love it here! Such a comforting atmosphere and great service and coffee!

This cafe is a comfortable spot for working, thanks to its welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. However, I wouldn't recommend the coffee and croissant. ⚘️ Coffee and croissant cost = 6.60

Si quieres un gran café y maravilloso frente al personal de la casa este es el lugar , lo que tristemente lo decepcionó esta vez fue la llamada barbacoa. Fuimos allí hace unas semanas y no podía faltar gran comida y ambiente, entonces el entonces chef se fue y el nuevo jefe de cocina simplemente no le importa. Fuimos el 09 / 08 / 2024 @ 18. 00 . considerando que la comida comienza alrededor de las 17. 00 , ordenamos lo que la última vez fue un brillante enjambre de pollo, esta vez basura considerando que se suponía que estaba cocinado fresco el nuestro estaba frío, yo diría que un Pret hubiera sido mejor y más barato. Cuando salimos mirando las brasas apenas se veía rojo. También al día siguiente mirando el inglés completo, que fue excelente una vez. Diré que entren por un gran café y personal, pero vayan al lado por comida. Siento ser tan negativo.

Desayuno promedio pero tener la mejilla para cobrar £ 14 por lo que llaman un “gran desayuno” y servir media rebanada de pudín negro es una locura y nunca había visto esto antes. Pensé que tal vez se habían agotado, sin embargo, cuando pregunté por qué habían elegido conscientemente media rebanada delgada de pudín negro, me dijeron que así es como se sirve. No me apresuraría a regresar.

Love this cafe. The quality of breakfast we had here was second to none. Rustic and tasty. Relaxed vibe. We'll definitely be back. x

Nice little slightly hidden cafe with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Good coffee and cake, what more do you want? 😂

Lovely coffee and friendly service a hidden gem . My go to place for coffee when shopping in Brighton

Fui a almorzar entre semana. El café era genial y el servicio de Amilia era realmente encantador, ella es tan amable y servicial. Tendrá que volver y probar los cócteles una noche también

Quaint little place tucked away in the lanes. Food was good and the cocktails were great.

first time here and it’s so nice! noah and alex were so welcoming and i’ll definitely be coming back, food was unreal and atmosphere/decor is super inviting

Best breakfast i’ve had in a while. The scrambled eggs were perfectly seasoned and the bread was so fresh. Would recommend booking at the weekend as it gets busy

Fabulous little place with great atmosphere and lovely service. Thanks so much... Hidden away gem

Fantastic food and service in a beautiful venue. Will definitely return!

Really nice place & lovely staff. And the latte art is so pretty!!

Lovely little coffee spot! Very lovely staff and very nice food and beverage selection

I absolutely love it here, it’s so nice and the food is lovely. The baristas are so nice especially Amilia! She does some incredible latte art

Came here with my boyfriend and we had the nicest time! The food is great and the staff are really lovely. It’s also got a really nice chilled vibe. We come here a lot for lunch and always have a nice time :)

Nice food, nice service, nice atmosphere - Rover

Fuimos en grupo a un almuerzo de 30 cumpleaños. Elegimos este lugar ya que tenía numerosas opciones sin gluten en el menú (hemos adjuntado foto a continuación). Sin embargo, al ordenar el camarero se fue y consiguió el gerente. Vino y nos dijo que podía darnos comida al resto de nosotros, pero la compañía se niega rotundamente a servir celíacos. Como si nuestro amigo pudiera sentarse ahí y vernos comer al resto. Nos ofrecimos a firmar una renuncia, etc, pero nos dijeron que el chef se niega absolutamente a servirla. Parece que las opciones sin gluten en el menú son solo para parecer de moda y no cumplir con los requisitos dietéticos. Preguntamos por qué no se anunciaba, pero no obtuvimos respuesta.

Rustic inside in a cool way, lovely food including all day breakfasts, great friendly service.

A good little cafe in Brighton. Service was a bit slow though so would not come here if you are in a rush.

Worst Caesar salad I’ve ever ordered. You couldn’t taste the dressing at all. The chicken was slightly burnt and it took 40 minutes to come out of the kitchen. The service wasn’t great we were seated upstairs and they would take forever to get your orders and they never even checked with us if the food was okay. My friends had the chicken muffin which actually tasted amazing. But the salad was so bad really do not understand how they could serve in was so tasteless.

Lovely cafe for brunch, my cheesy sweetcorn hash was everything I wanted it to be! Great vibe and upstairs perfect for a bit of people watching.

We came in for a Sunday roast and it was amazing!!! The coffee was great and the best pineapples daiquiri ever. The staff were really nice and friendly.

Absolutely delicious lunch and coffee, I would definitely come back here again when I'm next in town! I was visiting for a conference and a number of the conference delegates went to this cafe for lunch. We all basically turned up at once, and as a result there was a bit of a lunch rush. The staff handled it very well however, and were very apologetic about any wait on the food (which was, it must be said, very worth waiting for). I can see that others have left a negative review, but I feel that they have completely mischaracterised the situation. When a large number of people who haven't booked a table turn up at once, you shouldn't be surprised if you have to wait a bit. The staff were very polite and did what they could.

Horrific experience. Waiting an hour and a half for 4 basic brunch dishes to arrive with no explanation or remorse from hospitality staff. Avoid at all costs! Additionally, very cheeky to charge £11-£15 per brunch dish without the basic service requirement.

Great service. Amazing drinks & Thomas was superb!!!

Well presented place and front of house but with a very slow kitchen letting it all down.

I really like it here. A quirky little cafe bar in a hidden corner of Brighton. The food is delicious, I had a small juicy steak while my friend went for a Caesar salad that was really well done. It's cosy with a great range of wines, beers & cocktails. Also coffee & cake.. Staff are lovely, pop in anytime of day.

not a great reception as we walked in, 4 people behind the bar, two of which avoided eye contact and two were arguing over a ticket. eventually one of them pointed at the menus and told us to seat ourselves. sat in the garden which seemed like an afterthought, no music or atmosphere and seemed like its main purpose was a smoking area/hangout space for kitchen staff. ordered food and drinks, drinks (iced coffee and pint) came quickly and were very nice, food took longer but not unreasonably long. however, the burger arrived and was just a burger on a plate no salad or chips or anything, my fried chicken benedict looked much nicer on the plate but every element was overcooked, including hard poached eggs which i've never seen at a professional food establishment. my partner ordered chips upon realising the burger didn't come with them, these cost £4 and were supposed to come with aioli, they came long after we'd finished our food and the waitress just plonked them on the table without a word, spilling some of the chips. she also didnt take our empty plates or glasses. the chips themselves were piping hot and well seasoned to their credit but did not come with aioli. a while later some more chips arrived in some sort of error and these did have aioli with then but we turned them away as we'd already had ours. the waitress dropped more chips on the floor as she walked away. the real kicker came when i went to the toilet and saw the friday special which was a burger, chips and a pint for £15. my partner had ordered all of these items separately but had not been informed of the special. we will not be returning.

Very good food and friendly service would recommend it

Nice place centre of town. Great coffee.

Highly recommend. Lovely coffee and food place. Customer service was faultless and the decor and atmosphere cosy and trendy. Food and coffee was really good and amazing smashed avocado with the veggie brekkie. 🥑

Early in the morning so atmosphere not yet up 😀 I had scrambled egg on warm bread,not toast, and plate cold, and had to ask before had did it come with chilli flakes as so many other places in Brighton put them on everything, they said they did too but would leave them off! My husband had a full English and was very surprised and disappointed that they were served with some sort of curried baked beans!

Nice and chilled good coffee happy service

I'd heard great things about this place. I hoped it was great because the previous incarnation of cafe at this location, Marwood, was legendary. The decor was nice. Atmospheric and stylish. The servers were similarly nice and friendly. I ordered the cheesy corn hash which was exactly what it said it was apart from literally swimming in oil. I thought there was some kind of sauce on it at first because there was a pool of oil under the food. I couldn't understand how anyone could send food out of a kitchen like that. I had to send it back because it actually made me feel unwell eating it. So I replaced it with a chicken Caesar. The plain Caesar is £9. And the chicken Caesar is £12 I think maybe £15. I could be wrong. There was a adequate amount of good fresh romaine lettuce but very little else. I may be wrong, but the dressing didn't taste house made. There were no anchovies, no croutons, no eggyolk, just lettuce, a bit of dressing and a sparse sprinkle of Parmesan. For £9 I think it's a piss take. The chicken on top was crunchy and tender and relieved the absolute boredom of the salad but was massively over salted. Luckily I like salt but it was a lot even for me. It was nice there but disappointing that two meals in a row were under par. I doubt I'll eat there again.

Coffee was great, came nice and quickly. However, after 30 minutes of waiting, our lunch (toast) still hadn't appeared. They eventually brought us someone else's food, so we asked about our order and they went to check and said they only had enough bread for one of the dishes. They suggested my friend eat his as it was almost ready, while I wait for the bread that was "on the way" to the cafe with no indication of when it would actually be delivered. If they had let us know earlier that there was no bread, we would have ordered something else, and I'm sure we would have enjoyed it. However, they didn't give us this option. The waitress apologised, but on the way out the other member of staff who refunded us for the food, and had originally taken our order, offered no apology at all, despite us waiting over half an hour for food that never came

I love this coffee shop! Such a hidden gem in Brighton. Firstly it has wifi! The food is 10/10 and affordable, the coffee is good too! It is quite a big space too which is nice, they have a garden and an outside seating area if you want to smoke. The staff is great and polite. Everything is nice and clean, and you can serve yourself with water which is a very thoughtful idea! I love coming here to work.

Boutique themed cafe, good for a drink / evening nibbles

Oh my days, got to be the best Sunday roast in Brighton. Absolutely delicious, great atmosphere and Izzy our waitress was a real star. Can’t wait to go back

My favourite place for a coffee in Brighton! The best coffee with the friendliest service - thanks Lauren and Charlotte!! Highly recommend the roasts on a Sunday and the soup of the day and grilled cheese for brunch!!

Great coffee, delicious food, lots of smaller snacks options, dog friendly 👍, Light tasteful music in the background, there's alcohol options too...

A really great place tucked away. Saved me on Christmas Eve when I had a powerful thirst. Will definitely come back. Cheers!

Fantastic food, great coffee, friendly service. One of the best brunches I’ve had in Brighton.

Good coffee that arrived quick, super nice spot that feels nice and tucked away.

Lovely Sunday Roast. Tasty, well cooked, good sized portions. Friendly serving staff. Could have been a tad quicker but hey ho, definitely worth a little wait. XXX

Lovely quaint coffee shop, tucked away in a hidden corner of the vibrant ship street.

We had the afternoon tea on a Saturday afternoon & it was beauuuuutiful! The food was so tasty (especially the sausage rolls, chicken sandwich & opera cake) & the service was top notch - thank you George!

Lovely brunch! Very cosy atmosphere. Rose and George were fab!

Came for breakfast and can’t believe I’ve never been here before! Blown away by the fabulous customer service! Good choice was great, something for us all. Atmosphere was nice! Loved the vibe! Definitely heading back here soon! Little hidden gem for sure :-)

I’ve been wanting to try a Sunday roast here for ages, and I’ll certainly be going back after today’s visit! The food was wonderful, but what really sets this place apart is the brilliant service. Massive thank you to Charlotte and everyone else who made us feel so welcome.

Came here at the weekend to use the bookable private space upstairs for a celebration. The venue were so flexible and accommodating, and very reasonably priced when compared with some of the other spaces available for private hire in Brighton. We spent three hours there, played games and drank their delicious cocktails. We just felt completely at ease there and everyone had a great time.

Best roast we’ve had in Brighton in 3 years (and we’ve had a lot of roasts!) Everything was SPOT ON :)

Sumptuous tapes style dishes to share, bread, olives, polenta, duck, pork, vegan haloumi, all were incredible. You have to watch how much you order as it costs a pretty penny. Coffee was okay too.

Fantastic breakfast we all loved the food, great selection. Breakfast Bloody Mary as a treat, would definitely recommend this little gem if a place!

Utterly impossible to try and book a table at this restaurant - the booking set up is laughable. They don’t respond to the mobile number or reply to booking requests via email and when we *finally* had a table booked about three weeks in advance it was canceled with an email to say we needed to give them a weeks notice before booking…, If this restaurant is successful, and I hope it is, it will be in spite of whoever manages their bookings!

One of the best cafes in the area to work remotely. Pros: - Amazing wifi that hit up to 80mbps download! - A ton of seating, looks way bigger than you think. There's an outdoor terrace with lots of seating, seats downstairs and upstairs. Plenty of power ports available. - While we were here, there weren't too many people so you can find a place to take work calls if needed - Selection of standard coffee drinks, teas, and hot chocolate (could use some funner drink selections) - Morning pastries availability (wish there was more variety and quantity though) - Nice, friendly customer service. You order at the register and then they bring the order to your seat Cons: - The food is pretty mediocre and I wish there were more options on the menu including drinks and food. The morning items are pretty similar variations of eggs and bread. The shakshuka was basic and tasted like it came from canned tomatoes and didn't come with enough bread. Could also use smaller, cheaper food items that are more like snacks versus meals. - There was a woman in the kitchen who was very loud with her music and singing, and she seemed to be shouting while talking to others. It was a bit disruptive. - We weren't able to use our VPN on their wifi which we needed for work.

Made a booking for a roast, turned up on Sunday to be told someone has called you as we are not serving them today. Firstly this is a lie as i never had a missed call, i even emailed the day before and called with no response so no excuse what so ever. Such a shame as we visited last year and had an amazing roast hence booking again, things like this leave such a sour taste for the future

Lovely place popped in for lunch. Excellent coffee & toasted sandwich. The owners lil dog Rudy stole our hearts ️ Would defoe be back.

O local é agradavel, mas bastante quente, fomos num dia de calor e realmente estava quente. Fizemos uma reserva breakfast para quatro pessoas e achamos a mesa bastante pequena, sendo que havia outras mais comfortaveis vazias. A comida realmente não estava saborosa. O nosso pedido demorou muito a ficar pronto e a pessoa que nos atendia trouxe apenas 2 pratos, sendo que 1 nao fazia parte do nosso pedido e o outro estava correto e comecei a comer, logo em seguida o atendente veio rapidamente tirar o meu prato dizendo que não era nosso, e mesmo eu já tendo começado a comer retirou o prato e levou para outra mesa. Lamentável!

Top rate coffee and breakfast. Recommend for breakfast when visiting Brighton. Plenty of selection on the menu for both meat eaters and vegetarians, all with very good quality ingredients. I had the Post House Full English featuring a local butchers sausage and a runny poached egg. Couldn’t have asked for more and very good value for money.

Bad experience.. The service was bad so I don't recommend here

We waited 50 minutes after we ordered the food, but the food didn't come out, and Staff said kitchen couldn't make the food because there was a problem in the kitchen. Super annoying they should have told me this sooner.Eventually, we lost an hour and couldn't eat all day because we had another appointment. The staff aren’t friendly either.

Visited for a few hours and wanted to have Sunday lunch. Booked for late afternoon - went for the beef it was probably one of the best roasts I've ever had. Service was friendly and prompt. Vegan and vegetarian options are also available. Highly recommended.

Roast dinner was amazing, its a really lovely spot that you might miss but definitely worth the visit. We were served by Moeti, who made our visit! Moeti was attentive, polite and gave us top service!!!

Thumbs up to the post house cafe. Thoroughly chuffed with this One and tbh pleasantly surprised, far superior to my expectations, although to be fair I don't know why in hindsite. My chum and I went for a gamon roast today. Nice cauliflour cheese as standard not an extra. Seasonal roast veg with tasty herbs. Fennel seed with the roast carrot was well balanced and subtle. Pretty good tatties. Certainly tasty. Greens were perfectly cooked. Pigs in blankets and bacon wrapped pork and apricot stuffing as an extra "yummy". All very tasty and really good service. Clean and comfy surrounding . Perfect and content 😋😊

Wonderful cafe. Service was brilliant. Had gluten free option and they happily obliged. Their in house baked beans are delicious. We had the breakfast and it was perfection. Cannot recommend this cafe enough. Thanks for a wonderful experience

A hidden treat. The staff were lovely and the drinks were delicious

Best Sunday roast ever! Lovely staff. Recommend!

Had just the best Sunday roast here on Easter Sunday. The food was just first class and service also was very good, staff very friendly and the whole place had a cracking atmosphere. The only little gripe I have is the service charge. It is 12% of your bill, but sometimes I want to decide how much to leave, but yesterday it was worth paying, Thank you all at the Post House

Meal was excellent, service was poor well non existent, over an hour for the first course to arrive, then we were asked to leave before we finished our courses.sad really. 2 hour limit for table was not sufficient for the standard of service.

Love this place. Dog friendly and probably the best coffee I have ever had by the barista Hayden

Lovely evening atmosphere, a great selection of drinks and small plates. Cosy seating areas and a back garden

The best coffee in Brighton! Totally worth a stop if you’re here for the weekend, great food and lovely staff. Perfect location if you’re exploring the lanes too.

I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my morning coffee, best in Brighton by far! Beautiful cakes and pastries too, friendly staff and a great atmosphere, highly recommend this place for a catch up with friends!

One of the best cafes to hang out in Brighton! (Coming from a local) Great coffee, delicious food (lots of yummy vegan options) super lovely service, a warm friendly atmosphere and cool decor. Great spot for some co-working too!

Went in for a family brunch today with our dog. All made very welcome; great service and excellent food. Staff really friendly, Thank you.

Gorgeous afternoon spent here last Saturday for brunch. Staff were so friendly and the food was to die for!! Will definitely be back.

I had brunch in Post House this week, the Eggs Benedict and raspberry cheesecake were the best I've had in a long time! Cool spot for people watching and the staff were super friendly. Wil be back again soon!

I have to say we went in for my birthday today and 7 of use ordered food and drinks. A friend bought 2 cakes and we got charged £15 for “ cakeage” if they would have told us then then we would have saved the cakes until later. It’s absolutely disgusting!!! and won’t be going again. £15 to hand us a knife after we had already spent £235 !!! awful

We had an amazingly delicious Sunday roast. It was a friend's birthday. One of our party brought two little shop bought birthday cakes along, we put candles on, sang happy birthday, asked for a knife to cut them and had a slice each. When we got the bill, they had charged us £15 for doing this!!!!!!! They didn't tell us this would happen, and they knew, as we asked to borrow plates to put the cakes on. We didn't realise until after we left - our mistake. Just be mindful that they do this. Roast highly recommended though.

Came for a roast for friends birthday. The roast was good but The Post House really let itself down by adding a “cakeage” charge to the bill without informing us first. We would have not brought our own cake if we had known this in advance.

Came here for brunch on Saturday. The service was extremely slow. We sat down and waiters had passed by our table multiple times but never stopped to take our order so we finally managed to flag someone down after a long wait. We waited long for our drinks to come and my friend’s juice didn’t come for another 10 minutes after we received coffees. The coffees were pretty expensive for Brighton as any of the milk based coffees were all over £3.60. We had another long wait for the food to come. I was disappointed by the food—in particular, the shakshuka—because of the small portions, lack of flavour, and hard bread. I get full quite easily, but I left feeling hungry and disappointed.

I’ve been here a few times now. It’s a great cafe, lovely decor. Food is always great, home made. Service great. What more do you need! I’ll continue going when I’m down in Brighton.

Lovely place popped in for lunch. Excellent coffee & toasted sandwich. The owners lil dog Rudy stole our hearts ♥️ Would defoe be back. 🤗

Awesome Sunday roast, brilliant beer selection and the staff are absolutely lovely! Definitely a must for any roast enthusiasts

11/10 recommend. Love everything about this place. The vibe, the coffee, the cocktails, the staff, the food. Brunch was delicious, can’t wait to come back at night.

Great night except we all left hungry the portions are too small for big tables, however what was served was lovely and the staff are fantastic

Went in for breakfast on a Saturday morning but plenty of tables available (it's much bigger than it looks!) The staff were lovely and the venue had really good vibes - dog friendly too. We had a pastry (home-made and delicious), and a full breakfast which was very tasty. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely staff but disappointing vegan roast. All roasts come with a Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese, except the vegan option (understandably), but it’s so frustrating when this isn’t made up for. Instead of accounting for the fact the vegan option doesn’t include two components, my plate was significantly smaller than my friend’s. Surely it doesn’t take much to chuck on an extra potato or two? Especially given the fact the vegan option didn’t have any protein (beetroot and onion tart). Also, we all only got one carrot each on our plates. Left feeling hungry.

Found this place while exploring Brighton and stopped for a coffee and cake. All very delicious with very friendly service and a lovely atmosphere!

Great Food and Service looked after our party of 10 no problem.would recommend to anyone looking for a great roast

We came here as a group of 10 (supposed to be 14). The reason we chose the Post House Cafe was because of their menu catering for those with dietary requirements. We were all wowed by the food served here, it was absolutely incredible. The staff were all very friendly and happy too. Definitely recommend and we will definitely be returning!

Group of 6 adults and 2 young children for brunch. The venue is extremely child friendly, the food was once again fantastic and the staff are absolutely lovely and can’t do enough for you. First class and rapidly becoming my favourite place in Brighton and Hove. Worth noting that walk in’s are welcome. Can’t recommend this place enough, 5*.

A great spot for a Sunday lunch in Brighton. I had the vegan roast dinner, the centre piece was a delicious wild mushroom & spinach pithivier. Lovely atmosphere and great service.
