Cafe in Brighton

“Great selection of beers, nice ambience and friendly staff. Accepts blue light card for 10% off”

“Classic English Café with a great menu and all-day breakfast - always enjoy my visits here and never leave empty. Staff are lovely too!”

“Friendly service, always with a smile and good laugh from everyone at Lex’s. I go after my weekly sea swimming group and they always make us feel welcome. A must visit for anyone new to the beach or Hove.”

“We had our wedding party at Cafe Rust last year, and everything about it was fantastic! Anna is the QUEEN of organisation and delicious food, and thanks to her and the team we had the perfect wedding. The cafe looked beautiful, the food was amazing (people were talking for months afterwards about the slow-cooked middle eastern lamb!) and all the staff were so friendly and worked so hard to ensure everything went smoothly. Would 100% recommend Cafe Rust as the perfect venue and it will always hold a special place in our hearts ”

“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.”

“Excellent pub with friendly ,welcoming staff and atmosphere. Great real ales and fair price. Even on Pride weekend we were serve surprising quickly considering the number of customers. Will definitely visit again. Nice to have a pub in the centre of town that is so inclusive.”

“Came here 3 times in one day, fantastic cocktails, staff was suoer friendly and just a nice pub all round”

“The food was absolutely gorgeous, the full Monty was delectable and the whole vibe of the place was extremely welcoming and pleasant. The service was great, as the servers were jolly and friendly one even gave my child a lollipop for free! I went yesterday and will definitely be coming again at some point in the near future definitely recommend to go if your in Peacehaven”

“Loads of seating, great toasties, and only outdoor seating. Plus a sand and a view of the sea.”

“Came here for brunch with the old man (future #1 best-selling author) to enjoy a nice meal. The food was quite splendid and tasty. Nice service and a wide range of items to choose from. Would recommend for an outing with a cosy atmosphere ☺️”

“I went for lunch here, found it by a quick google search: best fish and chips near me. Large portions which were freshly cooked and up to standard.. jacket potato looked abit black/brown inside and was hard.. still edible. Fish and chips were a delight to eat and we had it taken away. Service was incredible with one lady managing it by herself but she was very attentive. Would recommend as they have a very extensive menu which has something for everyone. Would visit again lovely spot x”

“Serve a lovely English breakfast here. Had a lovely time with family and friends.”

“We popped into Tun Tun’s on Monday for their free student curry and I’m officially hooked. The staff were so friendly – the moment we walked in they greeted us with big smiles and asked whether we’d like veg, vegan, or meat. I went for the chicken curry, and it was still piping hot by the time we got home. Considering it was completely free, it was absolutely delicious – generous portions, loads of chicken and lentils, and packed with flavour. Exactly what I needed on a gloomy Monday evening. I’ll definitely be going back to try more, especially since they also do a £5 student deal. Edit: We did end up going back to try the £50 mega thali, and it was incredible. We also ordered two mango lassi – smooth, sweet, refreshing, and perfect alongside the spicy dishes. The fish curry was light and fragrant, and the pastries were unreal, especially the sweet coconut pathi. The chana daal was comforting, and both the aubergine pakora and onion bhaji were delicious. The chutneys that came with everything were amazing too – a perfect mix of sweet, tangy, and spicy. I’ll definitely be returning, and next time I’m bringing friends!”

“Great food here, a traditional greasy spoon.”

“A really nice atmosphere in a lovely cozy room, with a covered beer garden outside with heat lamps. Currently they have live jazz music every Tuesday evening. I haven't tried the food though it looks nice.”

“Excellent service & food. Very polite friendly accommodating staff! Clean & efficient. Reasonable prices & good size portions! Love this place!! ❤️”

“Great place, the atmosphere is just beautiful, amazing food and lovely service. The bread is home made with high quality ingredients. Fresh orange juice and the deserts are simply delicious.The service and staff are lovely. When there is a place with great food and service, I will be back and definitely recommend!”

“Iv been working in Brighton for 6 months and tried a few places to eat until i found the station cafe. Don't bother looking else where because you won't find a better cafe in Brighton. The staff were very friendly and enjoyed the banter .as for the food its 10/10 . All there meat is from local butchers and not cheep cash and carry stuff .hats off to all the staff and owners .keep up the good work and i will be definitely coming back next time im in Brighton”

“Visited the muse cafe as we were heading for our train and just wanted a quick bite, service was exceptional, he was so polite and seemed genuinely happy to be our waiter. We ordered 2 breakfasts with coffee and everything about them was delicious, nothing was burnt it all came out the same temperature and the presentation was perfect. An overall great experience and would highly recommend, I will be visiting again when I am back in the area.”

“Hidden gem by the beach! The coffee is delicious and the freshly made doughnuts, melt in your mouth- it's amazing! Super friendly staff and service to your table. It was a lovely experience with perfect views.”

“What a lovely cafe if your ever in Brighton try this cafe what great food, good price and lovely welcoming people.”

“Great venue, great beers, owned by hand brew co, drank dipas, milds, tipas and ale”

“Had a lovely evening last Saturday for our 60th wedding anniversary great food and music, James & Martin were the perfect hosts nothing was to much trouble they looked after us and all our guests and we all had a wonderful evening....Veronica & Alan”

“Huge breakfast and very reasonably priced. Staff were lovely and food arrived very quickly. Cash only which caught me out so had to drive to cashpoint after funding a rare parking space.”

“great food, very friendly and polite staff, lovely outside seating area!”

“We had our son's second birthday here in the private room, clean, decorated and lots of toys. Staff were amazing, soft play was a hit. Thanks!”

“If you haven't visited here - then do! The jacket spuds, salads, amazing cakes are superbly tasty. We have visited quite a few times now and find it every time to be a relaxed and enjoyable experience, a great place to meet friends.”

“Honestly, one of the best cafes I’ve ever been to. One of the last great traditional cafes, but with a fresh and exciting vegan menu that makes sure everyone feels included. The staff here were absolutely delightful too. Couldn’t recommend enough. Super affordable too! Very small inside and outside though so if it’s peak times you might struggle for a table.”
