Coffee in Brighton

[Lady Whistledown]

..... or you google what someone just posted on an internet forum for you and start browsing through the entire Lakeland website thinking "Oooh, isn't that marvellous, and practical too".

It's a slippery slope and no mistake

Where do I go for a really good coffee? Fed up with the Starbucks, Costa, Nero style brown water and I tried Frankie's Grinder on Edward St yesterday but it was SHOCKING. Can't be that difficult to make a nice small coffee

If that is where you are going for coffee, then you are in for a big surprise.

Coffee @ 33 on Trafalgar St
Bond Street Coffee (on Bond Street)
Ground in Kemp Town
Mr Wolfe on Montpelier Place

You know you're starting to get old when you (a) find yourself in Lakeland, and (b) find yourself looking at their products, thinking "Oooh, isn't that marvellous, and practical too".

This first happened to me about a year and a half ago. I was horrified.

The Coffee Counter on Vine St. Great coffee.

You'll be holding tupperware parties next. Oh and can we please use the proper terminology please, it's a Thermos flask.

Wooly hat, thermos, blanket over the knees = Pensioner. And I thought Brighton was young, cool and hip!

The coffee shop next to the Komedia in Gardner Street.

Coffee shop - The place for smug people to act smug whilst double hand cupping their over priced beverage served by some stuck up hipster 'barista' (minimum wage waiter) and watch Brighton and Hove yummy mummy's curl their legs up on the sofas like its their ****ing front room.

I think you've missed out manbags and Apple from your Giant Compendium of Cliches that you got for Christmas

Taking the thread off-topic can anyone remember the Golden Egg on the corner of Ship Street and North Street - proper cafeteria, none of this 'Barista' nonsense in the '60's and '70's. Is it still Athena?

Anything you liked, so long as it was accompanied by a fried egg - happy days.

Slipping in the bath is another sign. This happened to me recently.

Another sign of age is when you 'have a fall' rather than just 'falling over'.

If you want something different try Chocaffinitea in Gloucester Road where it crosses Kensington Gardens/Sydney Street.

They have an espresso machine, but there's more to their coffee than that. And the chocolate ....

 

[glasfryn]

if you are ever in Eastbourne
try M&S, we used to use STARBUCKS but now refuse to use them until they start paying some substantual tax
M&S is totally organic as well if you can put up with the wrincklies

 

[armchairclubber]

Marwoods is my favourite

I'm with you. Not a great coffee drinker but the ones I've had there could turn me into one

 

[Nitram]

Red Roaster as previously said, Cafe Coho and the Cyclist at Brighton station does a good cup.

 

[Dover]

Chocofinotea on Gardener St.

 

[Rogero]

Do all you coffee lovers make it home ? How do you do it? What machine and bean? Crikey I am a poet and I did not know it.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Drury's cafe in Richardson Road in Hove does a nice coffee. Snacks and Cakes aren't bad either.

And when you make an odd grunting noise when you get up out of a chair

The Waiting Room at Brighton station does excellent coffee, at a good price compared with Small Batch et al. (Flat white at the waiting room is £2.00 compared with £2.50 at Small Batch). I use Small Batch at 7 Dials, and the coffee is good, but they take bl**dy ages to make it, and it is a bit hipster-heavy

Cafe Coho in Queens Rd and Ship Street also does good coffee.
