Iydea was exactly what I was looking for as a lunch option on a recent visit to Brighton. There are…read morea lot of junk food vegan options in Brighton (which I was trying to avoid) so finding a place that does fresh, canteen style plates was a savior. The staff behind the counter helped explain the meal sets and quickly dished out each of my selections. I got a curry with steamed veggies and orzo on the side. So delicious! The space itself is low key--no pretension and a good amount of seating when I was there around noon on a Friday. I'll definitely be back my next visit to Brighton.

I love the vegetarian scene in Brighton and this place is definitely a way to get tasty and healthy food. The vegan lasagna was really good, a very strong tomato and cheese flavor and soft cooked pasta. The carrot and sweet potato purée wasn't as sweet as I thought. The chickpea Greek salad was fine. I really loved the seed topping, I thought that it would've been better on another savory side but it was a nice crunch.

I have some food allergies and they were very accommodating and food was delicious. The service was 10 stars! The decor was lovely and tasteful. It was the best meal of our two week stay in the UK and one of the best restaurant meals I have had in a long time. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I see there are a few less than 5 star reviews. This makes no sense and those people must hate everything. I travel all over the world. I was in Japan the week before our two week trip to the UK. This place is amazing! I have eaten at Michelin starred restaurants that do not match up to Tierra a Terre!

All the food they use is sourced from local suppliers. It was cooked to perfection! I'm a huge meet eater but decided to try the veggie breakfast for the very first time and boy was I impressed! It was delicious full of flavour perfectly cooked eggs, sautéed potatoes delicious grilled tomatoes, mushrooms beautiful fresh chewy white toast etc! My wife was equally impressed with her meat option. All in all a great surprise and start to the day. Check it out!

BETTER THAN A STANDARD CAFE…read more I've been here a few times with friends to study (and get lunch/drinks). It's quite nice. You can sit inside, outside on the street or upstairs on the rooftop terrace. Staff are usually very friendly. This place has a gluten-free cake on offer and a good menu with choice for vegetarians for a change. The iced coffee is amazing as is the home-made veggie burger. They also have good breakfasts that are served until 12. Yum.

But step inside and feast your eyes at the daily specials scrawled on a black board wall behind the counter, and you'll soon realise that Lala's Cafe is really something special. Minute steak with Cafe de Paris butter, sardines and fried squid all made an appearance this weekend... Reasonably priced and serving food throughout the day, Lala's is a great choice for those looking for a quick coffee, leisurely meal with friends or even a full blown party (although I haven't seen it for myself I hear there is a roof terrace upstairs, plus ample seating on the street for sunnier days). Having made three visits in three weekends, I can highly recommend the sandwiches, salad plates and pancakes. All freshly prepared, the servings are exceedingly generous - I've never left hungry!

The music is pretty much on point, and the food tidy, my favourite roast is the belly pork or the chicken. Selfishly I prefer it a bit quieter, it does get pretty busy.

And vegetarian pubs are few and far between, even in fair Brighton... Sadly, I'm not sure the George has quite cracked it...the dishes sound good, and in fairness the nachos I had there recently were quite tasty, but nachos are hardly the height of veggie culinary cuisine, are they? What's weird about this place is that they always seem to run out of stuff! I just don't get it. I am REALLY not a fan of being told that there is an ingredient missing as my food is delivered to me...at least have the decency to inform me in good time, so that I can change my order! If I order a burger that involves cheese, please include the cheese! Although I probably won't eat at the George again in a hurry, I would go for drinks- the staff are friendly and they have a lovely little garden with flower adorned trellises. It is a pub perhaps best saved for after-dinner drinks.

It's a shame because The George is a cracking little pub with a sweet beer garden and a warm and homely atmosphere. Up until the plastic incident I used to go on a regular basis and sampled everything from the hallumi salad to the roast dinner. The staff were always laidback, the atmosphere was bustling and the portions were filling. I'd still go there for a drink but I don't think I could put one of their forks back in my mouth. :-)

I love the rice paper wraps, green bean and walnut salad with orange zest, mushrooms, mango with dill, strawberry salad with almond powder.... Everything is so delish!!!! Only complaints: - the servers didn't know the food very well (might be because they are new) but the menu isn't that difficult to understand considering I memorised the menu and options having looked at the board for 15 minutes - the bread roll (which my friend had) was very hard The only reason I gave it 4 stars was due to the fact I've been to places like Ottolenghi which seems to be a step up from this in terms of food, service and decor.

This is going to be a review in progress as I inevitably dine again and again at Abyssinia…read more The interior is plain, filled with hanging pictures depicting religious scenes in the Tewahedo and Coptic traditions. There aren't many seats and the lighting is not going to impress anyone, but that isn't necessarily the point of Ethiopian food. This is where you go either to try something new or pig out with people close to you (it will probably get messy!) Everything you order is served on injera, a sourdough flatbread made from teff flour. Weirdly enough, if you've been to franco manca, you may notice some similarities in terms of dough. Like franco manca, you can also eat preposterous amounts of food with injera before keeling over, particularly compared to doughs that prove for ages. The traditional dishes of this cuisine are spicy, and abyssinia doesn't pull any punches. This is up there with the best ethiopian I had growing up in the D.C. area. You have a mix of stew dishes (wot), lean meat, and delicious vegetables. The vegetarian selection is 13.00 quid and is a big portion. The main reason not to miss out is the pairing. The spice of kitfo can get overwhelming, but with recourse to sweet lentils and tender carrots, your sweaty struggle will lead you to transcendence. The biggest limiting factor here is how many people you bring! To try a sizeable portion of the menu (you must get one variety of tibs, alicha wot, and a kitfo!) you really need 3 people. 2 can probably work if you are ravenous. Over three visits, not a single dish has failed to impress. Freshly ground spices and really powerful flavours. For three people, you can pig out for about 11 pounds a head. Plus it's BYOB. So go!
