The Red Roaster

[BUTTERBALL]

Anyone here been to the Red Roaster Coffee House at the bottom of St James Street? I went yesterday and it was fantastic, miles better than these sterile outfits like Costa et al. Really nice old building with bags of character.

They even gave me free hot chocolate for the kids, and the coffee and cake was amazing.

I find the staff aloof and the clientele up themselves. Glad you enjoyed it though!

Perhaps I went on a good day

I thought, judging by the thread title, it was going to be the kind of club Frank Bough and Stan Collymore like to frequent, not a cafe

 

[Les Biehn]

I can't stand the f***ing elitist staff that populate that place. They serve coffee for a living and yet look down their noses at me? Admittedly I suck cock for a living but that takes talent.

 

[Man of Harveys]

It's a great place, and the coffee is good and strong too, unlike the chains.

.................conjures up the most marvellous mental image

20 quid and it won't just be a mental image big boy.

Probably one of the best places for coffee in Brighton, staff are a bit aloof sometimes though.

 

[Buzzer]

Try Bill's too in North Road. That place is the absolute tops.

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

i think of it as a sun-dried Levellers kind of place if you get my drift....
coffee is good, and i've always found the staff friendly
much rather spend my money in there than in starfucks etc.

How come you lot can't make yourselves a cup of coffee and THEN go out?

Call yourself a Brightonian and you don't do cafe culture? Heresy. Off to the 'burbs for you, then. Do say hello to HB&B when you get there...won't you?

Pretentious? Moi?
