A review of Brighton’s newest vegan burger restaurant and kitchen, The Vurger Co.

44 Poets | Speciality Coffee

44 Poets | Speciality Coffee

Tucked along a quiet street just off of Portland Road is 44 Poets, Hove’s newest independent coffee shop. Unlike some of its neighbours, 44 Poets is the real speciality coffee deal and brings with it the vibes of a Melbourne coffee house, coupled with Scandi 

LOST IN THE LANES | Nile St, Brighton

LOST IN THE LANES | Nile St, Brighton

After two and a half years, I still manage to take a wrong turn and get lost in Brighton’s twisting Lanes. Of course there are worse places to wander into, but I’ll often find myself passing through to get somewhere else. So I was pleased to 

Rust Roasts | Sunday Lunch at Cafe Rust

Rust Roasts | Sunday Lunch at Cafe Rust

Cafe Rust is one of those places I always meant to get around to visiting. Tucked in Preston Road, it sits in that strange part of town that actually hosts some of Brighton’s gems – think Señor Buddha, The Joker, Hare & Hounds and Fatto a Mano. 

Brewed

Brewed

Brewed is a place that I seriously don’t think gets enough credit. Barely a year old, it’s still a relative newcomer to the Brighton coffee and brunch scene. I remember watching them spring up during my final commutes, and feeling thrilled when I realised it was a coffee 

Trading Post Coffee Roastery

Trading Post Coffee Roastery

Hold up, there’s a new brunch spot in town: Trading Post Coffee Roastery. Up until quite recently, Rickshaw Oriental stood in its place. I can’t say I’d been although from what I’ve read, things didn’t end too well there. Anyway, Trading Post moved in and began 

Café Plenty | Breakfast review

Café Plenty | Breakfast review

You might remember my review of Cafe Plenty a few months ago, in which I reviewed the place as a fairly new discovery. Throughout my previous visits, I’d only ever tried the fresh food from the counter, but never off the menu. Luckily for me, the 

Tom’s Food

Tom’s Food

Last weekend, we took a little trip to Cuckfield in West Sussex to visit Tom’s Food, a café restaurant that I’ve had my eye on since discovering it on Instagram a few months back. Tom’s Instagram is a collection of his foodie creations, supper clubs and life 

Nowhere Man | Pancake Club

Nowhere Man | Pancake Club

I was very recently invited* down to Nowhere Man with Jess to review their Pancake Club and, as  we knew would need the pick me up, we chose to visit the morning after the Brighton Girl Halloween Party. Boy, were we right. Struggling to walk in a

Black Mocha | Revisit

You might remember that I visited Black Mocha back in June and left a little undecided on my overall verdict. Here’s a little recap of my final thoughts when I visited and blogged a review previously: So far for me, the jury is still kind 

Tom Foolery

Tom Foolery

I stepped out of East Sussex recently and into the West for breakfast at Tom Foolery, Shoreham-by-Sea. Having heard mixed things about the overall experience from friends but seen some delightful Instagram photos, I needed to find out the truth for myself. Set in the High 

Café Plenty

Café Plenty

At the top of London Road you’ll find Circus Parade – for a long time a strange, degenerate little corner that added to the shabby reputation London Road is still slowly trying to forget. Finally, and a few months ago now after a newly developed building, 

Local Spot: The Crown and Anchor

Local Spot: The Crown and Anchor

As I’ve said before, sadly there isn’t much of a community hub in my local area, except a couple of pubs, a deli, a lot of estate agents and a Sainsbury’s Local. Consequently I spend most of my free time around other communities such as Sydney Street or 

Café Marmalade

Café Marmalade

Warning: blogging about Café Marmalade so soon after visiting will put me at great risk of sounding like a smitten teenager throughout this post. But here goes. I stumbled across Marmalade on Instagram and Pinterest and experienced full on love at first site. From its 

Black Mocha

Black Mocha

Black Mocha has caught my eye ever since it surfaced in place of Chocaffinitea on Gloucester Road. I’ve since found out that it is in fact the very same establishment having gone through a complete rebrand, and I have to say it 100% looks all 

The Flour Pot Bakery, Fiveways

The Flour Pot Bakery, Fiveways

Whilst I’ve got you here, I guess I’d better let you in on a fact about myself: I live for bread. And pastries. And coffee. Slap the word artisan in front of any of these and I’m positively weak. So you can imagine my excitement, and the danger, 

My third place: Pelicano Coffee and Tea House

My third place: Pelicano Coffee and Tea House

I thought today I’d write a post about one of my top third place spots around Brighton: Pelicano Coffee and Tea House (you’ll soon learn that I am way too indecisive to have one third place). Based in Sydney Street at the top of the 

Devil’s Dyke and The Ginger Fox

Devil’s Dyke and The Ginger Fox

For the almost year that I have lived in Brighton, I’m a little ashamed to say I’d never visited Devil’s Dyke, a sprawling valley of beauty right on the doorstep of Brighton. So today, my boyfriend and I decided to take a drive up to
