The best restaurants in Brighton and Hove South East

Era la hora de tomar una copa en la calle Gardner una tarde, nos sentamos afuera de la cafetería "coffee tree" "La gente mirando". cuando llegó nuestro Latte, la camarera era amable y comunicativa. El Latte se veía muy bien PERO cuando empezamos a tomarlos, ambos tragos no estaban ni cerca de "calientes". Estaban casi tibios. El azúcar que añadimos ni siquiera se disolvió en nuestras tazas correctamente. . Nos quedamos sedientos y necesitamos una bebida CALIENTE. El por qué algunos lugares sirven café frío o caliente de Latte es un misterio. Para mucha leche. . ? Agua no lo suficientemente caliente . ? No lo sabemos . .

Ordered around 12.50, after my order didnt accept for half an hour i called them up to figure out if it had accepted or if i had to make other arrangements for food. As i called up i asked if my order had been accepted or declined and I was told that my order would be refunded if it was rejected, I then asked if it had been rejected to have the person on the phone repeat himself before hanging up. horrendous customer service.

If you want to vomit and feel ill all day go here! No hygiene at all, they serve rotten, gone off sour drinks at top prices. I purchased an matcha drink that once I got on the train I noticed was completely off and mouldy with bits of spoiled milk churning around with mould. Unfortunately I drank some before noticing, vomit inducing taste, felt so ill all day! Vile place. They do not respond to complaints either.

Food was delicious, the sauce that comes with the sea bass was amazing. And they substituted the House salad for the Caesar salad without complaint which I really appreciate. But it took over an hour to get any food to me from when I ordered to when I was served, and midweek that is bad. They apologised for it which is good, but I can't ignore how long service took. On the bright side they let me in despite being dressed as a hobo, so they don't discriminate.

Great service and always with a smile béen going there for year great value for your money in nice weather seating outside as well in smoking is allow outside ., Great family run pleàce.

Absolutely terrible!!!! Waste of food and the owner is an absolute disgrace! He hasn't got a clue, rude, and tries to charge you every penny he can!!! He didn't want to separate the cod with the chips because he didn't want to use another sheet of paper to wrap it. Hadock was undercooked and soggy. Chips soggy too, and the owner is really stingy with the salt and vinegar! Large chips, small cod, and medium haddock nearly £20 quid, definitely not worth it, and you get charged for the 10p bag! Cash only too!!! Joke of a place, last time ever! Never again!!!! F that!!!!

We made a special 25 mile journey to visit. Difficulty parking, sat on kerbside which was so polluted. We both had Greek spinach and feta pie very greasy and lacked flavour. We took away large baclava and a kadiefi. Baclava turned out to be a semolina desert no nuts to be seen sold for £4.50 and Kadiefi syrup a sprinkle of nuts and nothing else. All very disappointing and we are Greek.

Absolutely smashing time!!! Thoroughly enjoyed and have visited with family and by ourselves. Absolutely spiffing time

Enjoyed a lovely brunch here. Although not many tables and you may need to wait and/or share a table it’s definitely worth it. Great selection for brunch and delicious coffee.

quick, easy, nice... and spicy, if you ask the right way. No matter how many times i need the difference in the noodles explaining to me they do it with no judgement. Spicy brisket noodle (no i still can't remember which ones) soup is fantastic, if you're getting a cold this will chase it off.

Fish and chip meal deal and a veggie burgher. Both nicely cooked and the chips weren't soggy. Happy with that.

I loved it here for my mums birthday all the staff were so friendly welcoming and professional its a chilled out vibe very clean, great music, amazing cocktails and mocktails, gorgeous food. I will definitely be back!!!

23 of us booked to have our Xmas meal here on a Friday evening. We all pre-ordered our menu choices and a deposit of £250 was paid. The drinks seemed reasonably priced for Brighton which was a bonus. We were due to eat at 7.30 pm and moved to the restaurant. Our various starters arrived at 8.15 pm and were at best luke warm. These were consumed and we waited for our main courses, we waited and waited. Several more trips to the bar and eventually after lots of chasing the mains started appearing at approximately 9.30 pm. The beef short rib arrived cold so was returned and never seen again and when questioned we were told they were making it fresh! I returned my meal to the kitchen as it was now too late for me to eat without making myself poorly, a few others from our party had to leave before the food had arrived due to getting home for family commitments and not one person received a satisfactory meal. I felt incredibly sorry for the staff who obviously had no control over the debacle it had become. When we complained and said we would not be paying the balance as the food was not worth it but they could keep the deposit we were asked if we would at least pay for our starters! No apology was received and we suggested that our deposits would more than cover the starters. We didn’t bother hanging around for pudding and all left feeling extremely disappointed at what we had just experienced and agreed it was the absolute worst dining experience any of us have ever had. Needless to say I will never ever return to this venue again. It used to be such a good place for food and being a true Brightonian I have visited many times in the past. They really stood be ashamed of themselves and need a little more customer service training. Thanks for ruining a bunch of very hard working NHS’s employees night.

Finally tried flower burger yesterday and actually loved it! Its not the cheapest option, the meal was £13 (I got the avo truffle burger which had a mushroom patty, truffle mayo & guac - this was meant to have a green bun but I got a purple one for some reason, but it was really tasty and fresh with spiralised carrots) - dont rate having to pay £1 for sauce but it is what it is. I got breaded aubergines as a side which were lushhhh. Comes with those posh drinks like fentimans/tory fanta etc. It took a little while to make and the guy serving gave us 'chocolate salami' kinda like a tiffin thing which was lush, maybe to apologise for the wait, which was sweet. But its nice its all made fresh! We got a cute keyring too. Twas too hot to eat in the store so went to pav gardens. I was sceptical about trying it because ive read some less than glowing reviews about it but im really glad I did and will deffo be going back!

Very friendly staff I recommend chaiiwala brighton nice place to chill With friends and family the coffee and tea the food great good service
