[Food] Where Can l Eat In the Middle Of The Night?

[GT49er]

Not when you are 20 miles from home in the middle of the night!

It is when the nearest all-night greasy spoon is 30 miles away!

I enjoyed the cheeseburger and half time hospitality down at Fort Road yesterday, and YMCA escaping with a point in a 2-2 draw!

Have you seen the Jake Robinson thread? This is the match he was watching and commented on the ref.
I didn’t go yesterday but would like to know what the ref was really like, haven’t seen any other opinions.

Absolutely AWFUL, he has reffed us many times before at Gorings Mead, so we knew what to expect. some of his decisions were absolutely bizarre, but we came away with an unexpected point so we are hardly going to complain.

There’s only the one left which is just by Palmeira Square

and that one seems to shut at 10pm these days.

It’s still there - re-branded as ‘Monarch Restaurant’. Not sure it’s still open 24 hrs.

You’re quite right, Buddies is now called ‘ Monarch’ I can confirm it IS open 24 hours

I’m definitely feeling old as I’m thinking I wouldn’t want to be in Brighton at midnight, even if I was sitting down to eat.
Not good for the digestive system eating at that time.

That’s a myth. The Spanish don’t have any problems eating late at night.

In bed?

Buddies shut yonks ago. It’s a Burger King now (unless I’ve been whooshed).

I think it’s actually Monarch now and I think it’s open 24hrs. Still owned by the same bloke. Burger King is next door.
BK is open 24 hours. I don’t think there are any other places except Market Diner that you can sit down and eat at in Brighton. It is far from the city that never sleeps.

Nor the Argentinians and they're doing alright.

I should have said not good for my digestive system, which is definitely not a myth.

I went to Buddies/Monarch last Saturday (when I may have started a thread on a certain visually impaired singer) and I have to say eating in there was like a fever dream. Wrong orders (like completely wrong), bouncer taking our order, two chefs fighting, a grey hash brown, a dancing Santa Claus and what is best described as a lake of beans. Completely satisfied me after my large alcohol consumption though, but it was certainly an experience.

Monarch is a rather odd place.

One of my mates is/was barred from there, he never went into the full story

I don’t think it’s worth going into the full story behind that place. It’s not a place I would advise anyone I know to visit.

Monarch is a rather odd place.

Maybe the fact that it is about the only place in Brighton where one can eat in the wee small hours of the morning whilst the rest of the city sleeps, gives it a somewhat surreal vibe.
