Owned by the Leigh-Jones family since 1945, English’s of Brighton is the oldest restaurant in the city, found on a site with a rich 150-year history of seafood. Take a seat at the oyster bar and chat away to the head oysterman whilst your oysters are opened in front of you, and Prosecco flows from a tap. Alternatively, choose from 2 floors of dining rooms, or a table out on the heated terrace.
The English’s of Brighton menu reflects its heritage. Seasonal creations excite and inspire, while all the classics you would expect from a seafood restaurant are also on offer. The extensive wine list boasts over 100 wines, each handpicked by Simon Leigh-Jones.
For those not in the mood for seafood, English’s offer an exquisite meat menu, including steak and kidney pudding in the colder months, and plates that aren’t just for vegetarians.
Tucked away in the heart of The Lanes, a few minutes from the seafront and Brighton railway station, English’s of Brighton encompass everything you’re looking for in a seafood restaurant and more.

The booking was easy and straight forward. We went to English’s for an occasion and the service was brilliant. Excellent food suggestions as well as unique touches to help us to celebrate. The scallops and sea bass are brilliant dishes.

I hadn’t visited this restaurant for many years but wasn’t disappointed at all. The staff were friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The food was better than I had remembered. The scallops were big and juicy and the tuna steak was cooked to perfection. We loved every minute and hope to be back soon. Thank you for a lovely anniversary dinner.

Food & Service was fantastic. One of our party was Coeliac and required gluten free food. The staff dealt with this brilliantly.

I loved having lunch here. We had a table outside because we have a dog. The server was great, he brought water for our dog and was very attentive. The food was amazing and very abundant portions.
