Due South

Have been coming to Brighton for decades for fresh seafood and what a pleasant find - really excellent food and service. We know the spot very well as previously R&F - happy we took a chance as we thoroughly enjoyed. Oysters were so fresh that we ordered another dozen rather than mains. Kids menu are 3 courses and excellently prepared.

My husband and I had a lovely meal at this busy seafront Brasserie-style restaurant with a focus on fish. We had the most sumptuous seafood raviolo smothered in a fantastic veloute that contained delicately aromatic fennel and a very subtle hint of coconut. This dish was a real stand-out. We also had fresh, well cooked, barbecued mackerel with chimichurri, baby new potatoes roasted and herby, and heritage tomato salad. The dessert was super indulgent- chocolate hazelnuts cream - heaven. We shared a bottle of wine, and it came to £130 including a tip. The cooking is very good, staff are attentive and friendly. We went on a Saturday night so the music was cranked up and the whole venue was noisy but we liked that. I imagine a week night might be a little more chilled and quiet if that’s your preference.

Fabulous food! Was a pleasure to find such a quality restaurant right on the beachfront. Great value for money. Will make this our regular place to eat when in Brighton. Steak looked awesome. Will order it next time we there. Had sea food and it was fresh and tasty. Staff are attentive. You can see chefs at work and there is a room where you can see them making dough. Definitely recommend.

I'll start by putting in a request that they reinstate the lobster crumpets as soon as possible - I'll be holding a candlelight vigil! They were the best "nibble" I've had in many a moon. The blue cheese crumpets are good, but once you go lobster you don't go back! Due South is a strong, reliable fish-heavy restaurant with staff who work professionally and a menu / wine list that gives a generous nod to local produce. I'm not usually a pudding kinda guy, but I'd make an exception for the dessert menu here. All in all, I'm grateful to have a reliable establishment like this close to home.

It was a truly pleasant experience as a tourist and it was my first time I really enjoyed the atmosphere people are so nice and positive vibes are all over the place. Service is impeccable 100% very hygienic and clean and they are very very nice simple light people. Food is delicious and has so many varieties for vegans vegetarians and those who eat different kind of meals it truly has big big variety of what you can eat and drink it friendly for adults and children both and has a great view I would highly recommend this place if you go there thank you all so much

Had the most incredible lunch experience at due south a couple weeks ago. The staff was extremely welcoming, friendly and catered to our every need, the food was exceptional and the wine pairings really added to the experience, will definitely be returning for those gorgeous oysters. All in all would highly recommend!!

Had an amazing lunch at due South today. Was excited to check this place out as had heard lots of good things abou this place. Enjoyed a nice glass of sparkling English wine on the terrace. The food really is the best in brighton at the moment. I Enjoyed the cod dish with a delicious wild garlic source. The starters were very tasty. I also tried my partners tuna tartare which tasted very light and fresh. Would definitely recommend if you enjoy fine dining with beautiful views!
