One of the best cups of coffee in Brighton and Hove. Rich and tasty, cream on the side, delicious banana cake, sociable atmosphere. I like their idea of listing their suppliers on a chalk board, the art on the walls and the prints for sale, the light airy feel to the place, the friendly service. The breakfast menu, which is available until 3.00pm (how civilised) is very tempting.

This might be a bit of the beaten track but simply worth it for the best Fillet steak in Brighton and Hove. Either they cook it for you or have fun cooking it just how you like it on a hot stone. I was sceptical at first but a real fan at the end.
They also do a great lunchtime deal - a starter and main course for under a tenner.

The Watchmaker’s Arms is the first micropub in Brighton & Hove, in fact in East Sussex. Located just south of Hove station it is very easy to reach by public transport and there is lots of street parking around. The pub is owned and run by two couples, Ruth & Rick Evans and Ali & Dave White. The Watchmaker’s closely follows the micropub model so you will always find five cask ales, mostly from Sussex, and four local ciders as well as red and white wine available.
