It's quite small and a bit of a squeeze with a pram, but once in we were seated comfortably in the corner. We ordered at the counter but I think the waitress would have come to us, however she thought we were waiting for more people. I went for eggs benedict while my companion went for the veggie Spanish hash. This was offered as a small or large portion. She went for small but there was plenty of food on the plate, the large must have been humungous! My dish was really tasty but one of the muffins was a bit hard on the bottom, giving the impression it was slightly stale. After our lunch, we both had a hot chocolate and chatted away. It was only when the staff started stacking chairs on tables around us that we realised the cafe had actually closed. However, we never felt pressurised to leave which was really nice. Highly recommended for breakfast or lunch.

This is a humble independent cafe selling decent coffee and excellent home cooked food. The owner Elina hails from the Oseta region of south Russia and has brought some of the local cooking knowledge with her to breezy Brighton, and you can tell. The food is exquisite, cooked to perfection and the menu is packed with inventive recipes. Specials change regularly and there is plenty of choice on the regular menu. I recommend the Oseta's House, a delightful dish of scrambled egg with halloumi, tomato, and spinach... it really is to die for! Coffee is good (to this writer's taste buds anyway, but I'm no coffee aficionado) and there are plenty of other choices on the drinks menu.

The restaurant is downstairs from the hotel but looks out onto ground level, (phew). The interior walls are adorned with artwork that adds to the Parisian vibe their going for. The decor is pretty swish with a window box, leather clad seats and a long cushioned bench. The menu is proper French A La Carte so do not be asking for burgers and chips. The bistro offers Duck Confit, Braised Lamb Shank, Smoked Fish Platter.... i think you get the idea. As usual being a massive cheese fiend i went for the Baked Camembert with Truffle Oil (OMG) and Brie, Goats and Broccoli Rosti (OMG OMG). Both were absolutely fantastic. Great for a first date, not so great for small children. Its not as scarily priced as you might think with the most expensive main at £13 when i went. They also sometimeS do a mid week deal of 3 courses for £14.50, which cant be bad can it?

Housed in the the New Steine Hotel, it wouldn't be an obvious choice either but I'm lucky someone filled me in. The decor is very continental, with banquette seating, crisp linens and soft furnishings adding to the feeling of luxury. Ever the bargain hunter, I generally visit here during the week when you can enjoy a 2 course meal for £12.50, although at the weekends it is only an additional £4. For the quality of dishes they offer this is a remarkable price I might add. Inventive dishes like Skate Wing and Chorizo Salad or Duck Confit (on a bed of lentils and pancetta) are presented with flair and precision and the waiters sweep dishes and fill glasses with minimal disturbance. No wonder this bistro has won the AA Breakfast and Dinner Award for outstanding quality and service. Book now.

This Cafe Rouge served us well during our stay at Brighton Marina for a long weekend. So well that…read morewe dined here twice -- once for a late breakfast, and once for dinner. That dinner was awesome, mostly because we had a 50% off voucher. Sweet deal. The food? It's a chain restaurant -- if you've eaten at one Cafe Rouge, you've eaten at them all. My beef bourguignon was very salty and didn't make me miss my recent lack of red meat. The service? Slightly better than average. I attribute that to the practically empty restaurant on both occasions though. The prices? Slight above what they should be, IMHO. But that voucher was fantastic. Almost £60 off your bill is nothing to sniff at. Brighton Marina is 99% chains, so you could do much worse than having a meal or two at Cafe Rouge if you're around these parts...

The decor is traditional and I always think the inside of them look like a sepia photograph. The downside to Cafe Rouge is that it is expensive for what it is. I got a taste of my mother's moules et frites and they were very tasty. My steak was rather flavourless and if you wanted any sauce it would be an additional £2; seems a bit much to me. The staff were friendly, if a bit slow considering when I went it was not very busy at all. There's not a lot really to complain about other than it being (in my opinion) overpriced, but also not much to rave about either which is why it stays in the average star ratings for me.

After ordering, the bf and I wound up parking our big, bulky selves along a narrow, back counter space in an adjacent, quite small, rectangular room that I'd quickly coined the "laptop library". I think my po-po was almost accidentally backin' up against someone's MacBook Pro. At some point during our stay, I noticed this. So, Mac-dude was either too polite, or too English to tell me to move my goods away from his. Hehe. My perch was directly in front of an open window-ahhhh-so I was able to gaze out at the nearby street and buildings while gulls were crying somewhere off in the distance. The gulls were a very nice touch. What to say about the flat whites? Oh, I don't know. I hate to sound like a "hater", but the bevvies were quite milky with only the slightest hint of espresso to them. Resplendent with fab-o foam art, they looked every bit the part flat white, but didn't really taste like them. What's great about Ground is that the service was spot-on friendly and efficient. I'd be keen on going back and ordering a drip coffee and a snack, and, hopefully, snagging a seat by the window, or, if it's nice out, a seat on the bench out front.
