Tiny reviews of Brighton food and drink
Not really a cafe but a deli, and it’s full of amazing things. I had a bacon and cheese wrap and an intense peanut butter brownie which I would highly recommend. But they have all sorts of olives and such and will be coming back!
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 157 Dyke Road
Massive cheery cafe attached to the Emmaus Emporium which is awesome itself. Super cheap food and happy staff, might not be the absolute best eggs ever but with a full English for £5.75 you can’t go wrong.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: Drove Road, Portslade

Friendly, actually quite spacious cafe with quite honestly incredible food at very reasonable prices. Went twice in one day for breakfast and lunch; scrambled eggs delicious, waffles with bacon and maple syrup hands down the best ever. I keep thinking about them!
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 107-108 St George’s Road
Classic “caff” with loads of sandwiches, omelettes, breakfasts etc etc. Nice interior and a busy place, but I think really just average all round – ok food, not expensive but not cheap, that sort of thing.
Verdict: Ok
Location: 35 London Road
Sandwich bar type place with a big menu to choose from which they make on the bread of your choice. Really nice people in there though and really excellent food – I had a chicken, bacon and avocado on “tiger” baguette type thing and they grilled up the bacon then and there. Delicious and a lot of value for £3.50. Also do breakfast rolls!
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 1B Montefiore Road

Tiny little Portuguese deli serving tortilla and salad, croquettes and patties and various specials. Really good value and top taste! Very friendly and a nice place to sit outside if there’s a free table.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 104B Dyke Road
Apparently the Flour Pot’s latest store, with a bunch of fairly pricey artisan bread, pastries and sandwiches. And it’s just as great, but the place itself has very little room to sit, and what it has isn’t particularly comfortable. If you can grab one of the outside tables you’re ok, but otherwise take your deliciousness elsewhere.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 141 Dyke Road
Classic “caff” type place with huge menu of sandwiches, breakfasts, burgers etc. Basic but pleasant inside and a nice location for sitting outside in the sun; good food at good prices.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 11-13 Montefiore Road
Cute little place for coffee and cake (or ice cream or a shake) – highly recommend rainbow cake! Be aware that it is ONLY dessert-y things – brownies as well – but they are delicious.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 15a Kensington Gardens (main is 15 Brighton Place)
Bakery with amazing pastries and cakes, but providing fairly average breakfast. Seriously – sweet treats wonderful, and it’s lovely sitting outside, but don’t bother with the food.
Verdict (cakes): Awesome
Verdict (food): Ok
Location: 18 Market Street
