“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.”

“So glad I stopped here for lunch. Food is top quality home made and not expensive as you get big portions. Quiche was delicious and salads were really nice and tasty. Great value for money. I sat outside with a great view of sea. Very peaceful. Looking forward to my next visit.”

“Great sandwich this morning, generous filling including protein (which is well appreciated), tasty, and a good price. Just what I needed! Thanks Sarah!”

“The friendliest gent I’ve ever known served me, I guess he is one of the owners. I will remember this humble, honest and happy cafe for all the right reasons, forever. Thanks :-)”

“Archipelagos Gyros in Brighton offers a reliably tasty option for lovers of Greek street food. The menu has solid variety — traditional pork and chicken gyros, halloumi, vegan versions, burgers, sides, and salads — all at very reasonable prices. The portions are generous, especially in the “main box” combos, which give you meat (or plant-based protein), chips or salad, pita bread, and sauce. It’s filling without feeling gimmicky. The service is fast and friendly, and even when busy things don’t feel chaotic. Ambience is casual, good for takeaway or a quick sit-down; it’s not fine dining, but that’s precisely the point. What you get is authentic flavour, hearty meals, and decent value. Highly recommended for a satisfying, no-fuss Greek feast.”

“Ordered a takeaway via Just Eat and the food arrived on time and hot! Great start, good first impressions. Then I tasted the food and I think I went to heaven and back. Absolutely delicious, I cannot fault anything. The meat was perfectly seasoned and so tasty, the fries were crispy and flavorsome. The Tzatziki was divine... In fact, the only think I can say is that there was far too much.... But that's not a complaint, it just means I get to have the left overs tomorrow!! 10/10”

“We went here for our anniversary dinner, wonderful food and service! We had the duck and lamb, both very tender and juicy. For starters we had the duck roll and scallops, I normally don’t enjoy seafood which I always find “fishy” but I loved the scallop, complemented by the sauce/puree that goes with it. For dessert we had the mango cheesecake, not the most impressive but not bad and would overall recommend this place !”

“Cucinetta is the best restaurant in Worthing! It gets everything right. Food is delicious, service is exceptional and the price is reasonable. What more do you want? We went to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary on a Thursday night.”

“I haven’t enjoyed a meal out so much for a long time! We had (amazing!) quesadillas and taco’s, homemade tortillas and a gorgeous aubergine starter. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, it won’t be long until we’re back! Thank you for a great evening.”

“For me this is the definition of a hidden gem, a nice, quiet, unassuming cafe with a very homely feeling. Every time we visit, it feels like we're back in Japan. Everything is homemade, tasty but also healthy. We always have something savoury and sweet because we don't want to miss out and the matcha late is also great.”

“Such a gem!! My friends I studied at Herstmonceux Castle last year and this was our favourite local café. The staff were always very kind and friendly, and the drinks and desserts never failed to hit the spot. The space itself is very cozy, cute and clean, the ideal spot for a coffee with friends or an afternoon study session. Can’t recommend Geo’s enough! :)”

“Such a lovely cafe, beautiful setting with nice walks around. Very accommodating and lovely friendly staff.”

“Popped in for brunch. Greeting was so friendly. Nothing was too much bother. Food was so tasty and surprisingly generous. I had BBC panini followed up with the best Victoria Sponge cake I've had in years.”

“Food was very good, fresh and didn’t take long to come out. Friendly staff and tidy restaurant. Will defo return if I’m in the area again!”

“A little over 7£ for two pastries. We got almond croissant and a fruit danish, both tasted divine. Theres a layer of what tastes like evaporated milk in the middle of the pastry layers which elevates them to the next level. Very impressed.”

“Visited here while in the area. Friendly staff, freshly cooked, great value for money, clean premises. I had the vegetarian breakfast, lovely sausages and perfectly cooked fried eggs. Coffee was fab, which came with the breakfast at no extra cost!”

“My partner and I stumbled on the cafe on our walk. We visited on a sunny day and loved the cafe! Its a very cute caravan kitchen with lovely staff. We both had green soup with bread. Both of these were delicious and we had to ask for more bread! All the food was of very high quality and we spent an amazing afternoon there!”

“Well situated on Western Road in Brighton. Opposite Waitrose. Selling mostly Turkish products. Fresh fruits are very good. Reasonable price.”

“This place is just the cutie. Visited yesterday for some late lunch staff lovely, and our pizzas were super yummi. We will definitely go back nearer the summer time. Dress up warm if you go soon the waiting time isn't long and the pizza warms you up. No customer toliet so make sure you go before.”

“Absolutely incredible eatery. Stunning variety of small plates, lovely surroundings both indoors and out, and an extensive drinks list. The food was OUTSTANDING. The chefs catered to our request to have a dish that wasn’t on the normal menu. The food came out in good time and each dish had an entirely unique and tasty fingerprint. My personal favourite was the satay mushrooms with a cherry jus (inspired by PB&J). Big shout out to Amy and Claire who were fantastic and helpful hosts!”

“As a vegan it's rare to have so many choices and we did! The food is so fresh and tasty. I don't like too spicy and my husband does but they had great options for us both. It's very authentic Mexican food and it exceeded my expectations as I have friends who love the food there. Really looking forward to going back!”

“This is my favourite restaurant in town. I especially love the generously filled bahn mi, the Laos minced pork dish, the Northern Thai specials (make sure you check the little board behind the server), the pork broths and the green papaya salad. We're so lucky to have this on our doorstep”

“Every great day in Seaford starts, ends, or includes a visit to Pomegranate! Lovely food, staff, and ambiance guarantees you a delightful experience.”

“Update: We were given the wrong pizza by accident last night and I wasn't able to contact the pizza van because it was closed. I left a review here and the management got back to me v quickly to apologise and explain. Accidents happen, but this was really great customer service. Side note - the pizzas really are the best in Brighton here!”

“Top-notch local café. We most recently stopped in for coffee but the food and wine are all excellent too. Very calm, lovely place to be and easy to recommend. A gem.”

“We had a cute lunch date here. I love sashimi so much and it's one of only two places that do it locally, I hope they add more fish to the menu ☺️ We ordered to collect tonight with friends, everything is so delish! Great service.”

“Absolutely wonderful, came today with friends although was very busy, staff were still very welcoming and lovely and polite, and still got our meals and drinks at a reasonable time! Even when other customers just left a table, the staff cleaned it up asap for us even tho they were busy! Defo recommend”

“I love KitoKito! Yesterday I had the spicy salmon poke and it was so yummy, the spicy kimchi sauce is so tasty.”

“I'm an ambulance driver for GOSH. Checked the night before to find a cafe for a quick coffee before picking up my patient, couldn't find anything suitable. Drove down early morning and saw this 'Burger Van' and stopped. This is actually a restaurant in a van. The young lady was so polite and friendly, I asked for a sausage sandwich and coffee. The choice between pork or Cumberland, white or brown, I've never been given that choice in any London cafe... Coffee was black, and you put your own sugar and milk in, which means I can make it to my taste.. The sandwich was great, coffee very good.. The price for both was excellent... Will definitely stop any time I'm near this place in the future.. Thank you....”
