Tivoli Cafe

Needed to grab a Sunday morning breakfast, and found this gem. I'm normally a full English type of guy (which was on offer) but was tempted by a Kurdish breakfast which was fab. My wife went for the Greek breakfast again lovely. As our friends live very close by we will be back again. Highly recommended.

Great spot!! I came here before a bike ride towards the dyke. Really close to preston park train station so very convenient. It has a lovely outdoor terrace with many tables and also a covered outdoor space. They offer a selection of greek/turkish homemade dishes and some desserts. I had the spinach and goat cheese pastry and it was delicious! Had a proper espresso as well, which is rare! I enjoyed the sun in the terrace as the vibe was very familiar and friendly. Really good prices as well! The staff was really nice and helpful which is always a strong plus! Also, they played some nice jazz music in the background and I really couldn’t ask for more. I definitely recommend it!

Very interesting place - firstly the location which is in the middle of a suburban part of Brighton and Hove up on a hill near Dyke Road. It's on a corner and because I suppose it is also their house with the downstairs converted to a shop it gives it a pleasant homely feel. There's a largeish garden at the front with an rather striking wooden structure too which I think would be useful in wetter or colder weather than there was on our visit. There's some indoor seating but not much I think - there's also a toilet inside. There's a mixture of western and Kurdish or Kurdish influenced at least menu choices - some of the homemade cakes, pies and similar in the front cabinet looked incredible and you can obviously take them away. Our breakfast were cooked well and generous portions and I really enjoyed the omelette as well - interestingly presented as well in line with the slightly quirky nature of the place. Prices are very reasonable for the Brighton area I suppose because of it's location away from the conventional cafe areas. Strongly recommend giving this place a go especially if the weather is good and you can enjoy sitting outdoors.
