What's the seriously bestest and smartest place to lunch midweek in B&H?

...regardless of expence. Just want to impress a London 'hope to be' client

I don't think you can beat the KFC in London Road.

Havana Spoon on Church Road does look the business, very elegant and classy interior.

Don 't use it but the Hotel Du Vin seems to be the business person blow out on expenses in town

Boutique Hotels in Brighton from Hotel du Vin

Greggs?

Drakes Hotel is a very classy place with good food.

Other alternatives include terre a terre, ginger dog, riddle and finn, chilli pickle.

Hotel du Vin seems to be popular but while it look nice and indeed serves some good food I'm convinced there must be better places. Hptel Du Vin strikes me as frequented by people with little imagination and need their "taste" handed to them on a plate. Hope that helps.

Bankers is potentially the greatest eatery the world has ever seen. And it's Bankers Restaurant...

Not been but I have heard nothing but style over substance reports from this place. If you're a footballer wanting to impress a blonde vacuous dolly-bird then this is the place....otherwise forget it.

If it's during term-time then book a table in the East stand Brasserie. You get quality food and it's very cheap, only thing is you have to book in advance

Any of the "Ginger" restaurants are a safe bet. The Gingerman is in Brighton and rather excellent The Ginger Pig is in Hove.

a common theme amongst many restaurants to be fair.

I was very under underwhelmed by the quality of food in the East stand brasserie, especially for the price (too high). that was on a match day, so maybe the increased volume played a part.

I'd be interested to know if it is all agency or if it had consistent/permanent chefs. I'm expecting the former.

Graze on Western Road near Brunswick Square is excellent, as are the Ginger restaurants as stated in previous posts.

 

[Hove Seagull]

Pascal's in Hove. Best place to eat in town.

 

[The Large One]

The Chili Pickle does an excellent lunch menu.

I believe that the weekday lunchtime deal at the East Stand Brasserie is food prepared and served by catering students from City College. By all accounts ... excellent food and very good value.
