Good News, Comfort Eating, Animal Therapy and more...
Hello Brighton and Hove!
Who’s spending their days staring into a SAD lamp, flipping between hibernation and escape? Just me? On the cusp of that dreaded Monday, we thought you’d appreciate a few ideas to beat the blues. |
Let’s kick this off with some straight-up good news... Brighton restaurant Dilsk has been named as a finalist in the Best Value Set Menu category at The Good Food Guide Awards 2025. We’ve got everything crossed for ya, buddies! |
Indulgence may be called for. Jude described Pearly Cow’s new Sunday menu as ‘shamazin’’ (that’s Scottish for scrumptious). And we’d argue the excellent new tasting menus at The Fig Tree or etch. would cheer anyone up. Or, keep it simply delicious with a slice of Fatto x Neal’s Yard Dairy Quattro Formaggi. (Hell yeah!)
Our new writer Rory Challand was won over - heart and soul - by the silky, fresh pasta, Sicilian sorbet, and love songs at Poco in Alfriston (RB loves Poco for Valentines) |
Brits book holidays in January. I wonder why? If you’re after immediate escape, how about a couple of dreamy nights at The Jolly Sportsman with this unmissable 2-for-1 offer.
Gorgeous Woodfire Camping has just opened bookings for 2025, and popular weekends are filling up fast. If you need a quick reminder about what makes this place so special, look no further… |
Catch up with friends. Sing sea shanties at The Farm Tavern, take a creative class together, or just shake it off with cocktails. Need some inspiration? Here she is... |

And if you really can’t beat it, we suggest you lean in with Blue Monday at Shelter Hall or do Brew Monday with a cuppa instead. Now that does sound nice. |

Brighton’s busy and we’re here for it! terre à terre’s glow-up is done, so sneak in for a peek. The legendary Chilli Pickle has moved to Meeting House Lane, Pompoko has branched out into Kemptown and Burger and Lobster is headed our way this February.
Burns Night is on 25th January. With a full-blooded Scot and a few Scot-ish members of the team, we take our ‘pudding’ seriously. Luckily, there are some no-holds-bard (pun intended) Burns Night menus down here, in case you don’t feel like braving the weather up there… |
Yours aye (with a wee dram of good cheer!)
Hannah and Team RB
