Our ‘go to’ place in Brighton for superb food, great ambience, excellent wine and beer and friendly, courteous and professional service. Emily and Simon are relaxed, experienced and generous hosts/owners - we feel like welcome guests and always look forward to our evenings here. Highly recommend. if you haven’t been - go. If you have been - go again!

A little hidden-away on the edges of Kemptown, I had the best steak I’ve ever had in Brighton. All ingredients are locally sourced at Busby & Wilds - they even have a map on the wall informing where each ingredient is sourced from around Sussex and bordering counties. You can definitely tell from taste that the ingredients are fresh and high-quality. The steak was delicious and large and it was cooked perfectly. The chimichurri and side salad were perfect accoutrements and so were the chips. I was very impressed and thought it was good value. I’ve paid more for a lot worse steaks before. The restaurant has a nice ambience and it’s dog-friendly which was very helpful for us. Wine was nice too. Will be back to try the roasts.

B&W was recommended to us when we got chatting to some locals. We tracked it down one morning and checked the menu. A visit had and certainly not disappointed. We both had fish and chips. The chips were huge, home cut monsters, perfectly cooked and worth every bite. There appeared to be only one person serving as we got there shortly after they opened. We had dog in tow and welcomed in. We thought we would have to sit outside but no, dogs allowed inside. Order taken quickly and food arrived in record time. A big portion of fish (excuse the photo - it really was fish), lovely crispy batter, mushy peas and a tangy tartare sauce. A very friendly atmosphere. Seemed like lots of repeated customers dropping in for food and/or drinks while we were there. A very nice visit. We walked as we didn't notice any parking nearby on our recon in the morning, but worth the stroll.
