The best restaurants serving British food in Brighton and Hove South East

We were staying at the white horses hotel across the road but decided to pick up a takeaway breakfast so we could sit down by the beach. We went back for lunch and the cake and then breakfast the next day too!! The food is unreal!! The nicest breakfast I’ve ever had. The coffee is fantastic. And the cakes I will dream about……

Superb anniversary surprise. Every tiny detail of this evening has been excellent. The food, drink and service all 5 stars. I would say Furna deserves the best in Brighton and possibly Sussex accolade. The team couldn’t do more to make our evening memorable. Can’t wait to return.

This cafe is so refreshing and down to earth, serving up great breakfasts. As a veggie I came away full and satisfied, and the price of food is good. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Free WiFi too! Thoroughly recommend.

Hotel very well located, near Time Square and 5th Avenue. Clean room. Very good quality of bedding. Small acceptable downside: noise from the busy street quite significant even at night.

I really can't recommend this place enough. I LOVE fish and chips and this is in my top 5 places of all time. If I'm playing a concert in Hove with Sussex Symphony orchestra, this is only a10min walk from our venue The fish is to die for, so fresh, faultless! Generous portions and all freshly cooked. It really doesn't get better than this.

This is one of my best coffee places in Brighton but something went wrong recently. Staff used to whip up a superb coffee, without fail, but the new person is not exactly a coffee person. She also looks as if she is there under duress, not because she wants to serve coffee. A smile and a little welcoming vibe would help. And also, if your coffee goes wrong, which can happen to anybody, maybe make a decent new one.

As a lover of haddock and chips, I wanted to give this place a go. It was excellent, amazing batter, chips that easily beat most fish and chip shops and great mushy peas. I'll be back

Beautiful little restaurant. Staff were lovely and friendly. Had the meat platter to share.

Lovely cafe and staff. Food is topp notch too. A real gem.

Always good value for money friendly staff

Amazing food and amazing service

Excellently cooked cod with a good crisp. They had place and haddock, but that had run out (we arrived to eat at 3pm on a hot Sunday). The food took a bit longer than expected to arrive - but was very worth it. All the food arrived together - hot. They shout out the names of the orders, which isn't the best system, so listen out. Special mention to member of staff, Pam, who ensured the comfort of a heavily pregnant member of our party - Pam was absolutely fantastic.

This cozy oyster bar is definitely a hidden gem in Brighton, located right by the beach. It has limited seating, but all the spots offer beautiful sea views, making it a very relaxing place to enjoy a meal! I ordered oysters, crayfish, and dressed crab, and everything was delicious and incredibly fresh. I loved the crayfish so much that I ordered another serving. They offer seafood in three different portion sizes—small, medium, and large—which is very thoughtful. The female owner was also nice and friendly, reminding us to watch out for the "pirates" while dining! Overall, a fantastic trip experience by the beach during the weekend:)

I would normally give this place 4/5 stars, but sadly our last visit to see Sinners was hugely disappointing. We sat right at the back, dead centre, on the sofas. Directly in front of us was someone with big hair and the other was tall so the screen was about 40% obscured. We were constantly dodging and weaving - for 2 and a half hours! In addition, the sound was so loud that it was distorted, so it was hard to understand some of the dialogue. On top of this, 2 large glasses of very mediocre red wine cost £19, and with the cost of the tickets and booking fees, it set us back around £50. Not a good evening, I'm afraid.
