The Plant Room in Brighton and Hove

What a delightful Friday afternoon treat! I popped in for a coffee, and stayed for the pancakes. Wonderful vibe, fabulous staff, excellent coffee and food! I will definitely be making this a regular haunt. Extra: a number of dishes can be made plant-based and/or gluten-free!

Just on edge of the ‘lanes’ area of Brighton , a pleasant coffee / snacks shop that caters for vegans which I think is its main appeal. Usual range of coffees but also some nice looking breakfast again with veggie options if desired. Range of cakes (gluten free) that looked more home made than the usual commercial options.

Visited for breakfast today and ordered a gluten free veggie breakfast burrito. It was absolutely heavenly. It's not always easy to find tasty GF food, even in Brighton, so top marks to 17 Grams. Will be back.

Amazing food and coffee, best veggie breakfast! Lovely atmosphere and very reasonably priced with good portion sizes.

Lovely spot for breakfast, lunch or brunch. Very helpful staff, light bright and clean room and prompt service. Great choice of breakfast / brunch / lunch fare for carnivores, vegetarians or vegans; my veggie breakfast was delicious and my husband really liked his beni with bacon, poached eggs and fig hollandaise. I didn’t want the veggie sausage or hash brown, and was offered extras of anything else I wanted as an alternative. The miso mushrooms were fab. We will be going back!

Absolutely blown away by what tastes you created with this meat breakfast. The best I’ve ever tasted. Could sit and ask so many questions

Sensational breakfast! I couldn’t fault this breakfast in any way. Each item has been made to perfection. If you love good quality food that’s made with love then you won’t be disappointed. Can’t wait for my next trip to brighton.

Got talking to someone randomly in a pub who told us this place was good for Sunday breakfast/brunch. And it was! We both had Advocado on toast. A nice mid way point between a snack and huge breakkies we saw others eating. Seating outside is in a sheltered spot and good for people watching.

Tolles kleines Café mit leckerem Essen und super freundlichem Personal. Man kann gemütlich sitzen und es gibt sehr leckeren Avocado Toast und mehr

Spiste lunsj på 17 GRAMS med familien og alle var fornøyde. Avocado toasten var utrulig god! Frisk og smakfull. Hyggelig betjening.

Lovely spot for people watching. Coffee was excellent and so was the service. Must mention Buffy who was friendly, helpful and great to talk to. We hope to go back sometime when we're in the area again.

What a stunning place to visit! The breakfast’s were exceptionally well cooked and the staff are so nice and welcoming. Added extra bonus as the are dog friendly.

One of the best cafes we've ever been to. The coffee was utterly divine; the menu mouthwatering and food delicious. I rarely eat cake because I am dairy intolerant yet I enjoyed a scrumptious piece of 3 layer vegan banoffee cake that was soft, creamy and absolutely worth every calorie!! The team were incredibly warm and welcoming and the resulting atmosphere very relaxing. Don't hesitate - just go in and indulge!

Great Brunch & Coffee spot. So many nice things on the menu to chose from but I went for the full English and was one of the best I have had. All quality ingredients cooked well and a good portion. My wife had the asparagus hash and this was awesome Check out an oat milk cortado from this place as was 10/10 Will be back to try more next time I am here! They also serve my favourite ginger ale gingerella ✅

We came to 17 grams on our final day in Brighton for breakfast as we heard that they had a vegetarian menu and are dog friendly. The staff were welcoming and friendly. We ordered some drinks which came quickly and two breakfasts (traditional breakfast and a vegetarian breakfast). There were outstanding - we particularly liked the mushroom, kale and homemade smokey beans. It was the best vegetarian fry up I've ever had at a cafe and it was quite unique as well. I would go back to 17 grams next time I'm in brighton - it was brilliant!

Just had the most amazing breakfast here. The hot chocolate with oat milk was divine and the pancakes were heaven sent. My husband has never had such a delicious breakfast - Cornflake brioche French toast. Staff absolutely delightful! Definitely highly recommended and a way to...

Really cute little place to eat and get a good coffee. I’ve been to Brighton a few times before and this time came with my fiancé. We popped in for a breakfast before getting our train back home, we both got a full english (mine...

Had breakfast here, was so good we cancelled the hotel breakfast booked for the next day and came back here. Very friendly staff and amazing food!!

Nipped in for breakfast and were made to feel so welcome that I had to double check that I didn’t actually know the young lad greeting me!! Very welcoming and great vibe

Hier gibt es fantastischen Kaffee und ein veganes Englisches Breakfast. Wir kommen definitiv wieder. Eine große Empfehlung

Our new favourite place for breakfast. Excellent service and the food is out of this world! We will be back on our next visit. Thank you all

Such a great find. The food is amazing, best avo toast I’ve ever had. Portion size is generous and the service is so friendly it makes you want to return…which we did. Amazing place. Treat yourself!

Excellent find while walking the lanes of Brighton! Great customer service and the food was absolutely delicious 😍 I had the full breakfast which was full of taste and my partner had the toast with scrambled egg which had a lovely pine nut and basil...

Amazing vegetarian breakfast burrito, packed full of flavoursome ingredients. Staff were friendly & the tables were clean.

Came for breakfast and stayed for 2 hours - had to have a second cortado coffee as the first was soo good. Breakfast was mushrooms on toast with 2 good quality sausages for 10 pounds - I throughly enjoyed it Others also enjoyed their coffees...

Very cute cafe with fresh decor and vibe. Staff were super accommodating and friendly and the food was fabulous- lots of options for veggie, plant based and meat eaters. The plant based breakfast burrito was 10/10 and it’s so nice to have a cafe serve...

New to Brighton so cannot make the statement of best breakfast but I cannot see why it can't be. 110% value for money. On arrival of my plate I instantly reached for my phone to take a picture and post on my Insta story. I...

Coffee, tea and a focaccia sandwich. Very friendly service, very reasonable prices and great taste. 17.5grams coffee in every cup😎

On a very cold and wet Saturday morning I found one of the best cups of coffee I've had in a long while.

Lovely vibe to this place. The food was outstanding. I had the Tempeh roll and I honestly can’t remember having a better breakfast. It kept me full until dinner too.

I am still dreaming about this brunch! The food was amazing and my son loved it too! The staff were so friendly and the coffee sublime. Seriously good food and great for people watching!

We visited here on Monday and we were greeted by 2 very welcoming staff who had a passion for what they were doing which was making great tasting coffee,brunch and sweet treats. We loved the place so much we went back Tuesday and Wednesday and...

We enjoyed excellent coffee and a very good breakfast in this nice cafe in The Laines, Staff were welcoming and friendly.

We decided not to pay for breakfast at our hotel to enable to try some of the independent establishments and we would certainly return when we visit again. It has such an interesting breakfast menu and the coffee is top notch!

A great speciality coffee shop positioned at top of the Laines. A relaxing vibe under subtle neon lights with great tunes being played. Comfortable seating and an gold range of brew choices. The real selling point is the good range of home brewing accessories and...

Possibly the best vegan breakfast I’ve had. Almost everything had a bit of a twist and the home made baked beans were awesome. A good sized plate of food too - I left full and happy. Followed up with a beetroot latte. Highly recommended.

Came with a friend whilst on holiday in Brighton. Lots of vegan options and quite innovative dishes. The chickpea scramble wasn't to my personal taste but the rest of the brunch, especially the house beans, was excellent. Also had really tasty cakes, I had a...

We stumbled upon 17 grams after searching the Lanes for some brunch and ended up having a fabulous meal. The coffee was wonderful and food was very tasty - my partner had the full English which came from beautiful hummus and I had the tomatoes...

I had the rhubarb and custard pancakes for breakfast with some fresh orange and a chai latte. Ohmydays, it was lovely, delicious food and great service! I also had a piece of the vegan red velvet to take away- actually the nicest red velvet I've...

I’m now a regular customer here and absolutely love the veggie brunch selection. The staff are always super nice & respect COVID guidelines, which is much welcome. Highly, highly recommend!

Delicious plant-based and vegetarian breakfasts, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. But, let down by their barely cooked, no-meat pork sticks. Our plant-based sausages had clearly been microwaved until slightly warm, resulting in a floppy disappointment. Please, please start grilling, frying, ovening (anything other than microwaving)...

i loved the food and the atmosphere felt so inviting! if you’re hungry and want yummy food you should definitely eat there and the coffee is great!

I don’t usually write reviews but felt I had to… To be honest, I would have come back to this place even before I had a chance to eat my food — purely because the staff there were so warm, welcoming and made nothing seem...

We were staying nearby so ordered food for breakfast … generous portions of smashed avocado on toast with vine tomatoes and bacon. Best breakfast for a long time … well packed and perfectly hot when I got it back

We couldn’t fault this coffee shop - food was amazing, coffee hit the high notes and the shop was beautiful. We were blown away to see Aesop’s hand sanitizer and the almond croissant was superb. Well done - this shop is ace!

Stopped here on a lovely sunny day and although busy the staff vere very friendly and accomadating. The coffee was lovely, the atmosphere was buzzing but relaxed and the food was great. I had the bacon and egg focaccia roll which was delicious. Will definitely...

We came to 17 Grams on a rainy day and after not being able to find somewhere good to sit down, it cheered us up a lot! Great decor, clean environment, fantastic coffee served with a smile. I had the halloumi and avo foccacia and...

I’m a regular customer and absolutely love the new menu. Great food, lovely staff as always. I will keep coming back time and time again when I’m passing.

We called in right at the end of the day 10 minutes before closing. The staff were super friendly and there was an outdoor marquee for cover. Delicious coffee (and yes they have oat milk) plus the music selection was also nice and chilled.

Wouldn’t return. Long wait for the amount of customers to staff ratio InAdequate food. Poor kitchen staff

I had breakfast here this morning and absolutely loved it. Staff was lovely, distancing measures are very good with high hygiene. And the food is really excellent. Fresh, innovative breakfast food. I had the cornbread waffles, which were amazing! Avocado, hummus, a tart rhubarb chutney,...

Lovely atmosphere, delicious vegan cakes and quality coffee. Very clean and tidy place. Highly recommend a visit on a cold windy day.

Popped in for a quick coffee break on trip to Brighton after milling around the lanes. Nice location, good for people watching. Very busy and popular which I always take as a good sign. Lots of cakes and coffee options available. Reasonably priced.

A warm and friendly welcome from the staff when we arrived and quick service too. We both had the house fry up with poached eggs - plenty to eat! And the coffee tasted great too. Thanks!

I was really disappointed with their service. When they were serving coffee to my table, they put a cup roughly and leave without saying anything even I said thank you. Their attitude was far from professional.

Firstly I need to say, that I haven't eaten at the plant room. My review is purely about the service. I have heard, that the plant room does an amazing breakfast which was the reason that we went there. We arrived at the café and...

We visited for morning coffee and decided to try the vegan sausage rolls & coconut biscuits which were both delicious. The other great thing about The Plant Room is the staff. They’re friendly knowledgeable about the food and are more than happy to chat. My...

A lovely located cafe that was clean and presentable with lovely food and drink. The staff were so nice and polite and they were dressed so nice and fashionable that it cheered us up nicely. I wasn’t expecting it but the loos even were spotless. The dishes were nice and new and the food was fresh and tasty. I am only not putting 5 stars as the music was too loud and I couldn’t hear myself think. A well cared for place. I will make it m regular. Thank you for the pleasurable experience

Lovely chilled place with friendly staff. Good Coffee and good prices. Always busy with people at lunchtime

Delicious coffee & cake. Beautiful gluten free vegan banana cake . Service was excellent plus gentle chilled atmosphere. Thank you

Wandering around town, we’ve found this place on a hidden square. Amazingly friendly staff, making the best coffees we’ve had in Brighton!

We to the plant room for lunch. I had the feta-tomato toast, which was very good. My mom had the avocado-kimchi toast and that was tasty too. Staff was friendly. However this is more a coffee-spot than a lunchplace.

I came here with my family and the menu looked amazing with lots of options for vegans. The atmosphere and staff were lovely. I had the cornbread waffles and they were incredible! I wished I lived closer so I could go there more often!

Brighton is wall to wall coffee places and the standards vary depending on which student turns up to serve. This is rather good. Coffee is better than most and the sausage roll is worthy of note. Service is a little slow but very friendly and professional.

Sat down in the afternoon sunshine for a cup of coffee and a piece of cake. The coffee was superb and the Banana Bread was to die for Nothing more needs to be said !!

Four of us enjoyed a vegetarian brunch on Sunday morning. It wasn't too busy at 11:00 when we arrived but soon filled up. Imaginative dishes, friendly service and great coffee. Highly recommended.

Coffee...best In Brighton Brunch Burrito... Avocado toast with poched egg... Scrambled eggs on toast... The staff helpful and very, very cool!!

My girlfriend and I returned to Brighton after having come last year. We enjoyed the variety of different vegan cafes and restaurants and on this trip we found the Plant Room. For me, the vegan options were exquisite and set the bar for vegan food in Brighton. The staff are friendly and accommodating and keep themselves busy, even when they aren't face with many customers. It made the place feel very clean and well kept which added to the atmosphere that made this such a fantastic visit. Next time we are in Brighton we will definitely return!

The coffee bangs- its phenomenal (coming from a trained Barista). Staff always friendly and welcoming. Haven't found a better coffee shop in Brighton as of yet.

Love the way the cafe is decorated and it has a really nice feel to it. Only had drinks but the coffee was lovely and good music playing too!

We knew that Brighton was the place to find excellent vegan food and The Plant Room did them proud. We had superb food - really very tasty. The guys running it were friendly and very tolerant of our young kids bouncing on a great long sofa. Great location on the lanes, clean, airy and with our door seating in the square.

On a freezing April afternoon, me and my furry friend were desperate to sit in the sun - The Plant Room delivers on that - loads of tables outside in the late afternoon sun. Lovely inside too. Only had an oat Capp - but it was a good one, coco de mama style and level. If only all independent coffee shops were this good ....

Excellent food excellent lovely service. Calzone and truffle pizza were amazing .. banana dip epic !!!

We visited here with our young son for breakfast 2 days in a row on a recent trip to Brighton. First day we had vegan pastries (pan au chocolate) and drinks the second day we had pancakes and a vegan breakfast. Food was really nice, with nice finishing touches which set it above the usual. Good quality teas and coffees. Trendy without being pretentious, friendly staff and felt comfortable being there with our toddler.

Popped in here for a quick coffee whilst visiting The Lanes. Fantastic flat white, smooth & creamy & delivered to the table. Lovely relaxing atmosphere.

Had the vegan soup of the day and it was awesome and very wholesome, chunky vegetables, hit the spot

Uber trendy coffee shop that make super coffee! Friendly staff, apricot Danish is recommended for the sweet tooth. Recommended.

Sehr leckerer Kaffee und super nettes Personal.

This cosy café is the perfect location for a hot drink on a summer day. They have some seats outside, in a busy square in the Lanes, great spot for people watching and enjoying a true experience of Brighton. Flat White is £2.50 which is cheaper than most of the places where it usually costs £2.80 or £2.90. Coffee is good, staff are kind and happy. I had a great time here.

Visited with friends, could comfortably sit all 5 of us together. Great coffee, good prices, lovely staff and decor, with Tame Impala playing on the speakers and cute plants dotted around. Very Nice.

This was the best coffee shop we found in Brighton! Friendly, welcoming staff, wonderful coffee and gorgeous food. I recommend the cranberry, raisin and chocolate cookies.

I found this place really peaceful. Had an iced latte, it was amazing! Also had an almond croissant which was nos very good but not bad either. I recomend to take a walk on the lanes and get a coffee there.

We stumbled on this coffee shop looking for a place to have a light breakfast and was very excited to try their pastries :) I had a latte and almond croissant which were both perfect and my husband had a veg samosa and a chai latte. Now as delicious as samosa was (especially the sauce that came with it!) the chai latte however had no chai in it... So we left wondering if it was meant to be a glass of milk with cream and some cardamon on top, or someone actually forgot the add the tea :D It was not a big deal though since it gave us a good laugh and a place is really lovely :)

Great coffee shop with good food and really really good coffee. Very spacious and lovely seats by the fountain. Go and try it for yourself, you won't regret it!

Love this place - really bright, modern, clean and really friendly staff. The coffee was fab and food is homemade and a lot healthier than lots of other coffee shops. Definitely my new favourite.

Ho avuto occasione di fare colazione in questo locale molto carino sito nel centro di Brighton. Ho gustato un ottimo the verde e una deliziosa torta al cioccolato seduta all'aperto e godendo di un sole meraviglioso con in sottofondo la voce dei gabbiani...

Nice location very friendly people amazing vegan food and cakes, and multiple milk alternatives for coffee, all round cool place

Lovely cafe with smart and classy decor. Great attention to detail- even the copper pipe work was polished and shiny! Oh and great flat white and almond latte too!

Very clean, friendly staff, great coffee Also a really amazing selection of homemade food on display, will definitely be returning to eat here another time

Visited TPL on London Road in Brighton: Coffees are reasonably priced, strong and delicious. If you're looking for freshly made vegetarian or vegan options then you'd love TPL. I tried their vegan brownie and granola which was incredible!

Great coffee and great service. Always a friendly smile waiting to greet no matter how busy. Haven’t tried the food yet but will do soon. Well done

I have lived in Brighton for 2 years and I can honestly say that The Plant Room never lets me down. There is nowhere nicer to pop in for a coffee and a cake in Brighton and I've tried them all....trust me. The service is always friendly and the quality of coffee and food is un-surpassed. If you want to chill and enjoy the relaxed side of Brighton in the heart of Brighton then I can't think of anywhere better.

This is one of my fave Brighton coffee shops. Staff have always been super friendly. Coffee is always delicious, lovely food PLUS glazed doughnuts PLUSSS free oat milk which is a touch. My number one when the weather is nice!

Had just an orange juice at the Plant Room during our short stay in Brighton. But the appearance and slecetion of light foods looked attractive and interesting. Would have liked to try had we not eaten prior to visiting. Look forward to it next time.

Nice ambiance and nice (if somewhat slow) staff. but what looked like nice food was overpriced for what turned out to be akin to cold and overcooked leftovers. It was a Saturday lunchtime yet we were among the only diners. Sadly we fear this incarnation may be as doomed as the last if they do not pull their socks up and also offer hot food as an option.

Fab coffee, amazing plant based food, lovely relaxing, stylish atmosphere. I've been coming here since they opened and it's such a great place to meet friends, have meetings, and bring my laptop to work over some amazing food and drink. Very accommodating and dog friendly. Otto the dachshund gives it 5 stars too!

An oasis of calm in the busy Lanes, chilled atmosphere and a friendly welcome from the baristas who serve coffee second to none
