The best restaurants in Regency Brighton and Hove South East

We were looking for a place for afternoon coffee and cakes which we paid a considerable amount for and found a seat downstairs. Tables were all uncleared and dirty so we pushed the dirty cups to one side. A customer came and unlocked the disabled toilet with a key and took one look and turned away and struggled upstairs! The toilet was left unlocked and people kept opening the door and immediately turning away looking disgusted. The smell reached us and we had to move to another filthy table. At least 4 staff behind the counter. Someone should have been cleaning! About time the place was managed correctly and I seriously wonder if head office are aware of the state of the place.

Food served on plastic plates. Expensive. Argued with owner that tempura is a batter not breadcrumbs, said I would change for something else which was a £1.00 more expensive and she made the young girl go get the card machine before I could reorder! Dreadful customer service and food very poor

For my visit I was served by an unsmiling unhelpful member of staff. I could live with that but my problem was the food. I got a few different meals to take away. Both meals contained sushi rice. Both were completely devoid of flavour. Absolutely none. I have enjoyed both meals often in Eastbourne, who get 5 stars every time I go. I must leave them a positive one actually!

Do not order from this McDonald’s, specifically through an app that use Uber Eats. They take over an hour to deliver in Kemptown, the food is always cold and soggy (always, not once have I had an order that arrived in good enough conditions) and on top of that, the Uber Eats “Customer Service”, has nothing that actually services the Customer, as in no occasion even though the food always arrived after the “latest by” time.

Great coffee and bakery. Often come here for filled sandwiches/ croissants et. The service is friendly and the prices are good too

I have tried to order from these guys twice on justeat and both times the order was cancelled. If you dint want to do delivery breakfast, take yourself off the apps! Its just frustrating!

Absolutely rude woman behind the counter serving me and my mother in law No sense of humour Bad customer service Coffee was bitter not proper americano giving up on this cafe it used to be good

Dopo una bella passeggiata lungo mare, niente di meglio di questo ristorantino, fish& chip di ottima fattura, fresco e leggermente agliate le patatine, eccellente il piatto e ottima la Camden beer. La signora che ci ha servito, a ridosso della spiaggia, davvero tanto carina e gentile. Il bagno interno, pulitissimo. Consiglio

I decided to try Harleys Pizza recently as we were really craving pizza. I spent £32 yes £32 and got two depressing 12 inch pizzas. Given they have pizza in the name you would expect something half decent however I can catergorically say this was the worst pizza I’ve ever had. The pizza’s themselves taste like burnt cheese on toast, the guy in the ship has essentially grated a block of cheap cheese and just chucked it on the pizza. The base was also vile, I don’t really know how to describe it other than stale brown bread. I would never eat there again and I would advise anyone else to steer clear.

Recientemente renovado con un gran diseño. Cafetería muy encantadora y amigable. Pasteles griegos recién horneados.

Served a Luke warm pie that had one piece of cold chicken in it, shockingly bad pie and white sauce that gave me a belly ache, I am currently considering taking this further as this morning I had a really bad belly ache.

Ordered vegan chocolates on line. Received a box with a very dull selection. At least one was broken. Most weren’t actually on the vegan menu enclosed so have no way of knowing if they’re actually vegan. Also ordered a non vegan box wasn’t much better. The packaging wasn’t the lovely Xmas packaging shown on line and the selection was awful. I had ticked the ‘little bit of everything’ option we actually seemed to be ‘what no one else wants’ option. Complained to Gina who offered me another box when I was in Brighton (135 miles away!). I said I wanted to give them as Xmas present and so that wasn’t a reasonable solution. I’d previously bought chocolates from the shop so knew these fell well below their usual standard. Gina emailed me and said they’d send replacements which would arrive this week. Unsurprisingly nothing has arrived. I will have to go elsewhere to buy replacement presents as I can’t use what they’ve sent me. Extremely disappointing. I like to use local artisan shops but there seems no comeback when things go wrong. £40 wasted!

Found this gem last year just as it opened up, so it was first on my list when I came back this year however the bar that was is now a Mexican restaurant so you can’t get a look in for some nice afternoon drinks with a sea view - I did manage to get a table at the bar but the cocktail menu was slim and the presentation wasn’t what I experienced when I first discovered this place! Totally gutted but understand the business opportunity and the food did look amazing still worth a visit

Nah.....Just not the same anymore, gone from one of the best pubs you could ever visit. Now no atmosphere, poor drink selection staff not caring if you are there or not, this is our 4th and very last visit since it reopened from Dr Bs to the Star and Garter.
