The Flint House

Modern Cuisine · Bib

££

Brighton’s famous Lanes district plays host to this fashionable brasserie hidden inside a red-brick and flint-stone house that was one home to the city's renowned Hannington's department store. Enjoy a drink on the terrace of the first-floor cocktail bar, then head down to the buzzy main room dominated by an open kitchen and a stainless-steel counter. There's something for everyone among the colourful small plates that take on global influences and burst with freshness and flavour. Many of the good value wines are also offered by the glass.

Burnt Orange

Mediterranean Cuisine · Bib

££

Hidden away within Brighton's famous Lanes, it's easy to miss this fun, relaxed spot. That would be a great shame, as it's a terrific place with retro music on the speakers and cocktails flying out from behind the bar. The menu slots in perfectly with the culinary trends of the times, offering a selection of sharing plates based on produce cooked over a wood-burning fire. Look out for the Middle Eastern and North African influences, such as the creative, beautifully golden leek and spinach pastilla.

Amari

Spanish

££

Look out for the bright-red exterior that draws you like a beacon to this Spanish-inspired restaurant tucked down a busy side street in the north of the city. The simply decorated setting keeps the focus on the food, with a menu full of dishes that deliver on their promise: the croquetas are creamy, the crudo is refreshing and the suckling pig is prepared with skill. The wine list is expectedly Spanish in its focus, while the selection of sherries is the ideal way to kick off the evening.

Dilsk

Modern British

£££

Visit this intimate and slightly moody spot inside the Drakes Hotel and you will likely be treated to some of the delicious, red-brown seaweed – more commonly known as dulse – after which the restaurant is named. Both the Short and Full tasting menus on offer include colourful dishes that are the epitome of modern British cuisine, like hogget with wild garlic and purple sprouting broccoli. The roster of well-chosen wines offers less-common choices that complement the food well.

italian

££

This smart Italian brasserie sits inside a transformed former bank and can be easily spotted by the large black-and-gold clock adorning its outside wall – in summer, the pavement terrace is a prime spot. The cooking follows an ingredient-led Italian philosophy, providing satisfyingly intense flavours in dishes such as pappardelle with a seasonally changing ragu or roasted cod with a punchy puttanesca. The friendly, knowledgeable service and all-Italian wine list complete the picture.

The Set

Modern Cuisine

££££

An intimate and rustic spot, this bistro-style restaurant has only seven tables and offers a pleasingly personable dining experience. Everyone is served together at 7pm, so be sure to arrive on time for the multi-course tasting menu that features small plates with a creative and playful streak. Japan has the biggest influence on the menu, from tempura and a short sushi serving to tomato dashi with ricotta – although there's still room for a spicy lamb taco too. High-quality produce runs throughout, resulting in some well-defined flavours.

Furna

Modern Cuisine

£££

This stylish city centre restaurant is the first solo venture for Chef-Owner Dave Mothersill, who has been a fixture of the Brighton food scene for some time and brings an array of techniques to his precisely crafted dishes. The food is largely served by the proud chefs and focuses on seasonal British produce, with a few international influences and a creative edge. A chic mix of vintage and contemporary décor helps to enhance the experience, with counter seating available to make the most of the fully open kitchen.

Embers

Modern Cuisine

££

Tucked away in the heart of Brighton’s famous Lanes, you’ll find this contemporary bistro with a big, wood-fired heart. Their ethos is all about sharing food with friends around a fire, with a menu that combines small plates like charred broccoli with centrepiece dishes for sharing, such as venison rump or whole sea bass. As you would expect, plenty of smoky flavour comes through in the well-executed, accessible dishes.
