BRAVO award winners for
Best Team in 2025
Best Team 2025
Let’s hear it for the Best Team Brighton! Hospitality in this city is built on warmth, inclusivity, and outstanding service. The best teams in Brighton’s restaurants, cafés, and pubs know that great hospitality is about so much more than food and drink. They go above and beyond to make sure your visit is unforgettable every time.
Congratulations to this year’s BRAVO winner – Lost In The Lanes – and to all the incredible teams shortlisted in 2025. A big BRAVO to the people that make drinking and dining in Brighton so exceptional!
First place
Lost In The Lanes’ joy at winning Best Team says it all. This standout contemporary café-restaurant – as welcoming as it is stylish – thrives on a foundation of kindness and respect, where people matter more than profit. Warm, thoughtful leadership means the team is cared for (and well fed!) – and that spirit is paid forward to every customer.
And the food? Fresh, seasonal, and every bit as good.
Lost In The Lanes also won #3 Best Lunch #4 Best Restaurant #4 Best Brunch #4 Sustainability Champion
Second place
There are plenty of reasons you keep voting for Starfish & Coffee – and the team is a big one. Always ready with a smile, they welcome you into this sunlit neighbourhood café and help make it BRAVOS Best Café year after year. Add in superb brunches – think fluffy pancakes, dippy eggs, and avocado smash – plus a cheeky AM cocktail list, strong coffee, and great tunes, and we’ll walk up that hill with zero complaints every time.
Starfish & Coffee also won #1 Best Cafe #3 Best Brunch
Third place
Brighton’s finest vegetarian restaurant, terre à terre, has been a beloved fixture for decades but it still feels as fresh and exciting as ever. The secret? Its exceptional team – welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the restaurant’s ethos. Pushing boundaries in both cuisine and hospitality, terre à terre deservedly won the BRAVO for Best Restaurant in 2024 and continues to set the standard for doing things right.
terre à terre also won #2 Best Restaurant #2 Plant Champion
