Review of Red Snapper

08 May 08, 18:10

I can't recommend this place highly enough 4*

Red Snapper is a quintissential Brighton restaurant. It's got a wonderful rustic interior and the seats are quite close to each other, with really friendly (mostly) Thai service. I went here as a big group booking, and we enjoyed the £15 set menu along with the brilliant and very retro BYO booze, which they even put in their fridge for you rather than it going cold as you eat. The food was delicious, and so tasty. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Apparently they're opening or have opened one near the Province Pub in Hove which is great for that side of town.

Review of Canteen

Delish Macaroni Cheese... 4*

I know it's not the sexiest dish ever, however this was just one of the wonderful dishes on offer when I went here for a girly lunch. It's a great buzzy atmosphere, with great service and really not too pricey considering the fantastic food and central location.

Review of Caruso Restaurant

The Ghnocci in here is ABSOLUTELY delicious 4*

The Ghnocci in here is ABSOLUTELY delicious. What I love about Carusos is that it's exterior is so unassuming, but the good Italian food is always mouthwateringly delicious. I generally go on a lunchtime and go for the 5.95 lunch special (a main and a drink) which keeps me going for the rest of the day.

Review of Kings Arms

01 May 08, 20:25

the most fantastic fish and chips 4*

This pub does the most fantastic fish and chips. It's got a great beer garden which overlooks the garden of england country side. The service is really friendly too - Michael who runs the bar is the best bar man you'd ever wish to meet. It gets really busy for food, so don't think you'll get a table Weds to Sun without booking. They don't usually do food on a Sunday but that may well have changed recently.

Review of Griffin Inn

01 May 08, 20:23

a wonderful little pub 4*

The Griffin is a wonderful little pub tucked away in a tiny village called Fletching. You definitely need to drive here (there's no public transport as far as I know). The food here is absolutely lovely, and the bar has that wonderful cosy English country pub feel that you want on a lazy Sunday whilst wearing a big baggy jumper and big shades.

Review of Peacock Inn

01 May 08, 20:20

the PERFECT country pub 5*

The Peacock Inn is the PERFECT country pub. As you drive up of the beaten track from Uckfield, you're greeted with a beautifully manicured tree which guards the wonderful thatched pub. The service is really friendly, I think that they must get live-in travellers to work the bar so you've got a wonderful chilled service serving up wonderfully ice cold pints.

Review of Freemasons Tavern

Is it me or is the music in here really, really, really loud? 2*

Is it me or is the music in here really, really, really loud? I've been to this bar on many occasion, often in a biggish group of people, which has generally always been a mistake as you just can't hear a word anyone says. Yes. I'm old. I think if they turned the music down and played a better variety of music then it may get a better mix of people who can actually stay here and enjoy it rather than do a quick drink and move on.

Review of Coast

01 May 08, 20:13

first, middle and last port of call for a wedding outfit 4*

Coast is a great store as a first, middle and last port of call for a wedding outfit. The service in the Brighton store is outstanding. After a dry cleaners ruined a beautiful puff ball skirt, the wonderful assistant was so obliging in swapping it for a new one out of goodwill (I was crying on the phone in desperation as I was meant to be wearing it that evening). They're always really lovely if you're shopping on your own too and never give you anything but an honest opinion.

Review of Webbs Cycles

01 May 08, 20:10

one of those lovely independent shops 4*

This is one of those lovely independent shops that you just want to suceed in the face of the large conglomorates. It seems that business is great in this friendly little shop, and quite right too. I purchased a bike basket (detachable, sports wicker), and some new handle pads. The gentleman was really lovely to me - he even fitted my basket for me on site which meant I could ride back to work with my wares fully fitted and ready to go.

Review of Hells Kitchen

delish veggie sausage rolls 3*

Hells Kitchen - what a name! Don't be put off by it though, the veggie sausage rolls dusted with sesame seeds are really good in here. I often grab a quick pie from here when I don't have time to stop down the lanes, which is always really convenient.
