The 30 Best Grill pub in Brighton

“Discovered this jewel by accident. Great food , pricing and service. The cantonese duck stir fry and chicken egg fried rice were both excellent. Will be back soon!”

“Our dining experience was outstanding! The food was amazing, and the service was impeccable—definitely a 10/10. Kim took care of us during our visit, and she truly elevated our evening with her attentive and friendly service. She's a real asset to the team. Thank you for a memorable- Night”

“We ordered the chicken platter for 2.it had more than enough meat for two people. We thoroughly enjoyed it as it was all cooked to perfection and was so juicy. I loved the red cabbage salad that came with it, however they've stopped doing the pomegranate dressing which is a shame! The cous cous is very tasty as well. The restaurant has a good vibe and staff are really helpful. They serve Efes beer as well.”

“I always loved to have lunch here, especially the seafood options. This time, I stopped on a busy afternoon in the middle of the holiday rush. They were kind and happily offered me a table. The combo of Barbeque prawns and Caesar salad was a tasty choice for a quick lunch!”

“Absolutly phenomenal. We ordered a mixed kebab and chicken wings with salad and chips. The chicken and kebab were very juicy and delicous. The staff was very friendly and polite. Overall the best kebab i've ever had in brighton.”

“Lovely staff and owner, great layout. Proper old boozer but not awkward like some are nowadays (as a young person!) Fireplace, dogs, good Guinness, what else could you ask for.”

“Visited late night and they still served us, the server (young lad) was so friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and the chef was lovely. Very clean place. Huge portions for a very good price! We will be back to hove for this food”

“We had travelled from Hertfordshire for a day out in Brighton The atmosphere at the Ivy is excellent a beautiful blend of Art Deco luxury and contemporary style, with high ceilings, vibrant artwork, and that signature lively buzz that makes every occasion feel special. The service is truly where The Ivy excels. Our waiter was impeccable: attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu. Everything was handled with smooth, effortless professionalism, from cocktail recommendations to clearing courses perfectly in sync. The food was excellent we had starters of Crispy Squid and Duck salad followed by mains of Guinea fowl cassoulet and the Queen Scallops and Prawn linguine. The Ivy Brighton delivered a sophisticated and completely flawless experience.”

“Updated: 12/07/2023 5th time visiting this restraunt since my initial review. The steak on black rock was divine, much better then most of the other local establishments. Michael made our visit special and engadged with my 3 year old neice making her visit fun. Overall the escape bar I would rate higher then 5 stars if I could”

“Stunning cuisine. I'm not a salad lover but Izmir Bar and Grill have absolutely nailed it! It was a friend's birthday and already from the starter, we knew we had winning meals. The dessert was exquisite. Most impressive was the portion sizes. Not too much or too little - but just right! East Street restaurants be careful. Izmir Bar and Grill is leagues ahead ❤ Special mention to our lovely waitress Jasmine. Thank you and Management for a delightful lunch out.”

“Best kebab in Shoreham! I had an amazing experience at Shoreham Charcoal Grill! The kebabs were absolutely delicious — perfectly cooked, flavorful, and served with fresh salads and warm pitta bread. The quality of the meat really stood out, and everything tasted authentic and made with care. The staff were friendly and efficient, and my order arrived quickly and piping hot. This is definitely my go-to spot for kebabs in Shoreham. Highly recommend to anyone craving a tasty, satisfying meal!”

“Amazing food, lovely staff, great atmosphere. 3 of us had bowls of the most incredible chilli followed by desserts. Can't wait to go back!”

“We decided to enjoy a roast at The Egremont and were lucky to arrive early enough to get the last table before they filled up with 100 pre booked roast dinners I ordered the lamb shank, while my friend chose beef, both served with crispy roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, red cabbage, mashed swede, broccoli, carrots, and parsnips—much more than we expected! We also shared a giant portion of cauliflower cheese and some massive pigs in blankets, which we affectionately dubbed The Egremont sausage surprise. The food was delicious and plentiful, and I even shared some of the pigs in blankets with the neighboring table, & bought some food home - If you plan to go, I recommend making a reservation! The Egremont”

“Easily the best steak I've had in a long long time. Lovely place, staff welcoming and helpful, bar staff chatty. Chatted to the owner who couldn't do enough to make us feel at home. Cocktail delicious and freshly made. Prices very reasonable, can't wait to go back.”

“Fantastic For Pool , Music , Food & Beers. Great for a night out with your mates and also great for a few games of pool with your mates. The kitchen does some top qaulity food aswell , Deffo one of the best Pool Clubs/Sports Bars ive been to.”

“Antonia was super attentive and amiable. The ambiance at “Browns” was so calming and welcoming; so much so that dining alone didn’t feel awkward. Great breakfast…I highly recommend the steak and eggs!…YUMMY! I will make sure to dine here every time I visit Brighton A++++”

“Lovely Clean pub, pet friendly. Great variety of food on the menu to suit everyone & good weekday deals on food. Pub quiz available available every Thursday. Lovely staff & great atmosphere, would definitely recommend a visit.”

“Fab friendly place with fun atmosphere, brilliant music, great beers and delicious food! We had a selection of Spanish tapas all home cooked by the Spanish chef, yummy! Pop into this pub you won't be disappointed!”

“We had a lovely experience from start to finish. We called to see if they had food and the lady on the phone was so nice and accommodating and chose a lovely table for us. The smoked chicken Sunday roast was amazing. Something we've never had before! And we had the pancakes for dessert, one word: WOW! Best dessert ever. The chef obviously put a lot of love into that. I'm sure we'll be back if we're in the area. Thanks to all the staff for being so kind on a Sunday evening.”

“We had the rib eye and it rates in my top 10 for flavour and texture, amazing! £70 for two beautiful steaks and a bottle of wine, totally worth it. I asked if the candle on my table could be lit as we were celebrating and every candle in view was lit, super service :)”

“Very nice food, super friendly owner =)”

“Had a brilliant meal, and the staff made my day and my birthday. We went late afternoon and they had just cleared the room after a big party. I really wanted to sit by the window and watch the sea, as living in Milton Keynes, we are completely land locked. They cleared a table so I could look out having my dinner. The staff (waiter and barman) went above and beyond, and the drinks and meals were fantastic. A faultless experience, and I would not hesitate to go back or recommend them”

“Genuinely great kebab. Delicious, generous, never less than excellent.”

“A Hidden Gem – If You Can Get In! The Cyprium Bar & Grill in Lingfield truly is a hidden gem — but getting a table there felt like a mission in itself. The online booking system didn’t seem to yield any response, and trying to get through on the phone was equally frustrating. It took sheer determination and persistence to finally secure a reservation. That said, once we were in, it was absolutely worth the effort. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff attentive, and the food was genuinely excellent — beautifully presented, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. Service throughout the evening was friendly and efficient, striking just the right balance. Interestingly, our server mentioned that it’s often best just to turn up. In the worst-case scenario, you can be seated in the bar area, which has a similar menu and still offers a great experience. If they could streamline the booking process and improve their responsiveness, this place would be a knockout from start to finish. But once you're there, you're in for a real treat.”

“The food was freshly cooked and served fast. We really enjoyed our glazed burgers and Michael gave us a really good service. I definitely will go back some time.”

“Good food, and friendly staff. The perfect stop on the way to the Amex football ground. Good choice of food, well cooked with vega and vegetarian choices. Good prices and amount of food is well worth the wait. All food cooked to order, fresh, hot and full of flavour. A regular pit stop for us walking to the stadium which is about 20 minutes away. Popular place for a reason! Recommennded”

“My friends and I booked through First Table, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The restaurant is on Boundary Road, quite a way from central Brighton, but the interior is worth the trip — beautifully decorated and full of character. We were warmly greeted by the friendly staff, who offered some great suggestions. We tried their Turkish white wine, which was spot on, then moved on to starters and mains. The highlight for me was the lamb casserole — absolutely heavenly! What really sets this place apart from other Turkish restaurants I’ve been to is the pricing. Even without the 50% First Table discount, the menu is very reasonably priced. The only downside for me is the location, as it’s quite far from where I live (Preston Park). Still, I’d happily make the journey again for their food. Dined for: 3 Meal: Starter + mains + drinks Total bill: £109”

“quite an unassuming little place nestled in the business of george street, there was nobody in there as i was passing at lunch time however had previously read online that they do good food. i had the chicken club burger and oh my goodness, i don't say this lightly, but that was the BEST burger i have ever had! delicious home made chips as well. it was a perfect little spot in the sunshine people watching, eating gorgeous food. if you're at that end of town definitely give it a try! the chef & girl at the till were lovely too, very attentive.”

“Lovely food and drinks. Our waitress Flo went above and beyond, so attentive and always kept our glasses full, as well as being so lovely and friendly! She definitely made our experience even better! :)”

“Hands down the best Bulgarian meal I’ve had outside of Bulgaria. Went to Donchevi Kitchen & Bar today with my other half for lunch. As I’m from Bulgaria, I always wanted to share my cuisine but previous attempt have not been successful due to lack of quality original Bulgarian ingredients or chef abilities. This restaurant on the other hand tasted like home. We had kufteta, shopska salad, mousakka, parlenka and chips with Bulgarian cheese. Everything was not only authentic but also delicious. I loved it so much I had to ask for takeaway bag to take some home. I definitely recommend the restaurant to both Bulgarians and to everyone keen to try something different which they will enjoy. My partner is a bit picky with their food as they are British and tend to go with Italian food or British but they loved it too.”
