Book store in Brighton and Hove

“Just wonderful. Came along for a date afternoon. Friendly staff, food was exceptional will definitely be back. Had the set menu. Thank you!”

“Lovely neighborhood coffee place... sandwiches are yummy as well.”

“Amazing little place we found by chance on google maps. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff. Good selection of food - but the two soup choices and sandwich selection were hard to look past. All washed down with good coffee and finished with a brownie! And all extremely well priced. Well done!”

“Roses outside, curiosity inside. This place caught my eye immediately — green walls, wood accents, and plants spilling over every corner. Someone clearly cared about this space. It was packed, which made taking photos tricky, but I still managed to steal a few frames that felt worth it. The blonde girl at the bar greeted me with a smile. Didn’t stay for coffee this time — I was here for the light, the textures, and the visual mood. But something tells me I’ll be back, with time to sit.”

“New 'Terrace' at The Amex. Excellent job done by BHA. Online ordering app really easy to use- quick and tasty food at concessions. Plenty of bar options for beer, busy !”

“Great shop has everything you need. Very helpful staff it is an absolute asset to the community.”

“I have been coming here for years, and now my husband uses you. Always very honest, and up front. No hidden agendas. Will always explain things and advise the best outcome. Thanks guys you do a great job”

“Excellent. The driver was very friendly and offloaded the items onto my garden as requested. He phoned up before arriving to let us know he was on his way.”

“I hired my suit and my best mans. The service from Adrian from start to finish was professional and helpful. From the first meeting to returning the suits was easy relaxing and Adrian's knowledge and calmness made the whole experience easy. I have and I will recommend Dickies suit hire to family and friends and anyone who needs to hire or buy a suit as prices were ideal. Thank you Adrian”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a lash lift and brows done by Denisa and couldn’t be happier! The brows look great, but the lash lift is next level – they look so long and lifted, I’m obsessed. Such a lovely experience, highly recommend xx”

“The coffees the baristas make at Kingsway are bang on every time. It’s obvious they take the time and care each time they pour to get the right consistency and temperature of the milk (which is rare!!). There is a lot of competition around Hove for good coffee, but Kingway is coming out on top each time for me. I’ve got a Gail’s at the other end of my road, and let’s just say I walk that extra bit further for one of these banging oat flat whites each time… Very pleased to have you in hove guys!”

“great little brunch spot with fantastic food and good coffee. lots of options on the menu (including gluten free options on all the savoury brunches, plus the pancakes come gluten free as standard!). the staff were super helpful with allergies and were as careful as possible.”

“A unique place with a great food and drink menu and a lovely vibe! I only stopped in for a quick bite to eat for breakfast, and I had a blast. I had the healthy brunch bowl, where everything was well cooked and seasoned, and as a non-vegan, still thoroughly enjoyed it and wouldn’t have said anything was missing. The chunky avocado was a great touch too, way better than the mushy stuff. To drink I had the health elixir - or in normal terms, a honey, lemon, tumeric and ginger tea. Fresh and vibrant, it was perfectly sweet and spicy, and very delicious indeed. The vibes in the place are spot on, being friendly and welcoming like the staff, and the decor is just fabulous with all the random vintage bits and bobs around the place. They offer cakes too, but it’s the large food selection, creative and tasty, and extensive drinks options, especially teas, which makes this place stand out!”

“Delicious VLT in a lovely cafe. Sandwich was so generous I could barely finish. Will visit again”

“The staff were very welcoming, the coffee was very good that I needed another one. The cafe was cozy and had an inviting atmosphere, seating for lounging and a working space aswell, Overall a lovely place to go with FREE parking too”

“I love this cafe. Can be difficult to get a seat due to its popularity. But I can't say anything bad about it. The smashed avocado with poached eggs, crispy bacon, sourdough toast and pimenton is unbelievable and possibly one of my favourite breakfasts/brunches. I definitely recommend”

“Sat in for a spot of brunch tucking into a spinach and ricotta roll with I think the most aesthetically pleasing mocha I’ve seen. Also, the taste matched the presentation. This may be the best coffee in town!”

“The coffee is good quality. No need for sugar or syrups to enjoy their brew. The music is chill the shop has a fantastic atmosphere. It’s not over priced. The toilets are clean and modern. The shop is just all-round excellent”

“Nice big cup of iced cold americano. Beautifully decorated and furnished, much more modern than before.”

“I took the Absolute Beginners class last weekend and absolutely loved it! Julie explained how to use a sewing machine in great detail and within an hour I felt confident in using it for basic stitches. We even got to make our own little pin cushions which is such a nice take-away from a single 2.5 hours class. I will definitely be back for more!”

“Dropped into Café Coho in Brighton just before closing, and despite it being near the end of the day, the welcome was still warm and friendly — no sense of being hurried out the door. I ordered a strong flat white, and it was exactly what I needed: rich, full-bodied, and clearly made with care, even that close to closing time. The café itself has a clean, stylish feel without trying too hard — relaxed but with attention to detail. The staff were attentive and polite, and there was a sense that they genuinely cared about the quality of both the coffee and the customer experience. It’s easy for some places to switch off as the shutters go down, but not here. That level of consistency says a lot. I’ll absolutely be back again when I'm next in the area, whether it's for a slow sit-down or another quick pick-me-up. Highly recommend if you’re after proper coffee and a professional, no-fuss service in central Brighton.”

“Ok. Let’s start saying that I went to this place with very little expectation to find Sicilian street food, contrary wise this place exceeded my expectations. A precious little place in duke street that stand out for all the competitors in the street. I went safe for coffee and cake and it was ever so good that I decided to have an arancino al pistacchio after, and I was literally transported to Sicily with the flavours of the food. At the exit I managed to compliment myself with Davide the owner of the place, which was exquisite. His passion is clearly expressed into the food and the attention to details. I would not hesitate to come back for a coffee and cake, quick or long lunch, an aperitivo or a nice traditional unique Sicilian meal out. Ideal for everyone, from kids to adult and wheelchair friendly with ground floor access and tables. The unpretentiousness of this place makes it ideal for a solo meal as well as a romantic date to impress. Sicilian typical product also available to buy at the counter....not to be missed the “Crema al pistacchio”. In conclusion, this place is a must go either if you are Italian or not, and you will easily spot why is second to none. So far the best “arancini” in Brighton.”

“We love Ground, it's our favourite local coffee shop! The new location is great and the fact that they now do brunch is brilliant, we tried it for the first time today and the ultimate bacon butty is possibly the best bacon butty I've ever had. Coffee from Pharmacie Coffee Roasters is delicious and well prepared, and the staff here are always friendly. There aren't many places you can get coffee and brunch for £10. Just a lovely atmosphere, nice music and chilled vibes, a great coffee shop.”

“Coffees are great! Service is good, not sure why the other reviews slate it. Milk is foamed very well every time!”

“We were delighted to find this great coffee shop during our visit to Brighton! The coffee, pastries, and sandwiches were fresh and flavorful but if you want a nutritious meal I suggest the owner’s homemade savory root vegetable soup! It was fabulous! The good size portion kept me fueled most of the day! Everyone was so friendly. The service was great! Our two times to eat there during our one week stay will be a standout memory from our time in Brighton!”

“1st Class Garage saved me from a really difficult situation when the clutch broke down upon my arrival to Brighton. When I phoned them the next day and explained my situation, the secretary and the technicians were incredibly understanding and responsive, sending out a couple of mechanics to assess what my car needed. They explained clearly what work needed to be done and when they realised that I couldn't drive the car to them, they sent me to a recovery service that transported my car at a very reasonable and affordable price. They then fixed the clutch that very afternoon which was incredible as I needed to drive back home on Monday! The car drove fantastically on my way back and the fix was a very reasonable price. I couldn't recommend them more as they were friendly, compassionate and responsive to a very stressful situation.”

“Popped in for a quick breakfast and coffee. Wilfred wasted no time in devouring the croissant and lapping up the Cortados. Finished off with a babiccino with chocolate on top. Great location and good service”

“Great service! Rachel was so helpful in getting us a great deal to Peru. We'll be in touch when it's time to book our next trip!”

“Easy, value for money, fab destination and choice thank you so much!! Would recommend to anyone wanting to book a hen party.”
