2. Food for Friends

Boasting a Certificate of Excellence, Food for Friends is Brighton’s original vegetarian restaurant est. 1981. To start, graze on crispy tofu, artisan bread and chickpea quartet, followed by a diverse sharing platter made up of halloumi bites, sweet potato and pomegranate salad and courgette kofta with coconut tzatziki. Other popular dishes include their portobello mushrooms and coconut curry. Definitely a must-visit if you’re after a healthy, hearty and satisfying meal.

3. Thewitchez Photo Design Cafe Bar

Bringing a slither of Eastern Europe to the UK’s coastline, Thewitchez Photo Design Cafe Bar serves up an eclectic mix of local German, Polish, Czech and Swiss dishes. Thewitchez is actually a web and graphic design company who decided to ditch the concept of a traditional office and set up shop in a cafe instead! All dishes are homemade, freshly cooked and served in a cosy, informal atmosphere. So if you’re ready to experience something a little extraordinary, these guys are your go-to.
