The best restaurants serving British food in Queen's Park Brighton and Hove South East

A must visit restaurant whether you live in Brighton or come visiting. A real hidden gem where you a guaranteed a night to remember. As always, thank you Jane and your wonderful team. I've been going for years and ever visit has been amazing.

A bar with it's own character and a great atmosphere. Friendly staff and a good range of craft beers and spirits. Loved it.

Excellent, warm and welcoming pub. Fire burning, cosy atmosphere, friendly staff. Everything you want from a good pub!

Just had to wait 40 minutes for breakfast and missed our train. I was told that the delay was because they were very busy, which clearly wasn’t true as the place wasn’t full. Our order had obviously got forgotten even though they were overstaffed. I counted 4 people serving about 15 customers. The staff were happily talking about their holidays and dating, and taking cigarette breaks, rather than checking the orders had been processed. The chef even came out for a coffee break and gossip - while we had been waiting 30 mins. In fairness they did apologise profusely and took some items off the bill. The breakfast was ok when it came but certainly not worth the wait.

I traveled from Colorado, USA to the London for work and I had the opportunity to bring along my father with me. He was born in the UK and as we were planning various things to do, he had reminisced about going down to the coast as a child to play in the arcades and eating the best fish and chips. As he was telling me about his childhood, I knew immediately I wanted to relive it with him. We were able to catch a quick train to Brighton from London and on the trip down I started to do my research on finding a great place to eat our lunch and landed on Captain’s. A great place right on the water by the pier. After my dad and I played in the arcade on the pier and bought Brighton Rock candy to enjoy on the trip back to London we headed over to Captain’s. As we walked in, we were happily greeted and brought to our table. We both ordered the Fish and Chip’s and I got an extra side of fried scampi. To drink, my dad got a coke and I went for the Brixton Brewery West Coast IPA. Our drinks came right away, and I have to say the Brixton IPA was great! This is coming from a guy living in Colorado beer country. After some chatting between my dad and I our cooked to order meal came out. The batter used at Captain’s is from a 35-year-old secret recipe and only the highest quality fish and locally sourced potatoes are used. I knew I was in for something good. As we took our first bites it was evident we found the right place. The fish was perfectly fried. The outside was crisp, not crunchy and the fish was tender, moist and delicious on the inside. The chips were cut the exact right length, fried golden brown with excellent crisp on the outside and the precise balance of fluffy on the inside. I was super happy about ordered the scampi too as that was a nice extra treat. We even got an extra basket of chips on the house to top us off! The wait staff and Pam were superb! All took the time to speak with us and really made this a great experience for me and my dad reliving his youth. I can understand why it was so memorable for him and now thanks to Captain’s and their crew it has become an everlasting memory for me too! I will be back with my children soon and highly recommend this great establishment. Cheers!

Food was delicious. Coffee was AMAZING!! I

I walked past this place on the way to do my washing. The door was open, so having heard good things about it, I thought I would come back for my breakfast. I came back at three minutes to nine, the door was still open, I was told that they didn't open till nine and I should come back later. So, as there were a number of alternatives in the street I went elsewhere.

Bar didn’t open despite having an event scheduled. No communication from the manager. No lights on. No contact. Our event was even on their website. Had several people messaging the Facebook and calling the number and nothing back. Poor. Do not book an event at this awfully run establishment. Disappointed is an understatement.

We just popped in for a drink after being on the seafront, really lovely. We will be back and hopefully check out the food next time xxx

Fantastic atmosphere good was fantastic, would definitely recommend. Various ages from toddlers to us oldies, extremely busy but service was great. A big thank you to the kitchen staff on 4 separate meals all hot and plenty to eat.

Vine con mi hijo buscando una hamburguesa de buena calidad, y no me defraudaron. Fue una de las mejores hamburguesas que hemos probado en mucho tiempo (gracias al chef). Además, el buen servicio prestado por Oliwia, que nos atendió con una gran sonrisa y una actitud muy amable desde el momento en que llegamos hasta el momento en que nos fuimos. Así que gracias y bien hecho, tuvimos un gran tiempo y buena comida!

I wish I took photos of the food because it was actually terrible, I bought the Bella breakfast with an extra of black pudding for myself with a coffee that I thought came with it (which I’ll get back to later) and I bought the vegetarian breakfast with a coffee for my gf, I got home to eat my food after delivering my gf hers at work and I come to find the two eggs are fully cooked through not runny at all and very oily, came with only one sausage and one bacon which I’m sure it said you’d get two bacon, and the extra black pudding was literally one thin slice I was so dissapointed, it all came to £28.10 which the two breakfasts were £9.50 and the extra black pudding was like 1.75 I think so the two coffees must have been nearly £4 which I can’t believe really and I feel like a fool for going to this place when there’s much better options for that price on the same street I only went there thinking I’d maybe save some money but turned out I spent more for worse and less

Food was disgusting lovely staff

Maxi, our waiter, was amazing! Really friendly and helpful. Great value for money and included the salad bar for each of us.

Rachel was super helpful and a great waitress all night. Would definitely recommend to everyone for a nice meal and great atmosphere
