Great food and drink
These are our favourite places to eat, with the odd pub thrown in for good measure. There's a range here - fine dining for very special occasions, to lively/quirky/buzzy venues, to great family friendly favourites. Hopefully something for everyone.
Hove: This our favourite family eatery - excellent Italian pizza and salads, always lively local atmosphere, good quality food, relaxed and great if you have younger kids. Little ones get to eat free with each adult, but it'd be great value even if they didn't. Larger groups (10+) get an option to use a private room down stairs.

Hove: Masterchef Professionals winner's restaurant – vying for the top spot restaurant in Brighton & Hove - for a special occasion. Fine dining, need to book. But wow, this place, the service/food - is outstanding. Will get a Michelin star very soon surely. Best restaurant I've been to in the UK!

Nice little seaside attraction - there's a stop at the Peter Pan playground, and Yellowwave beach cafe. We'll often park up on the Madiera drive and go to all three before heading for the beach. A good day out in good weather if you need to keep little ones entertained.
