The Coal Shed Brighton

Why you’ll like The New Coal Shed Brighton

The Coal Shed Brighton has relocated to the stunning Clarence House on North Street, marking a new chapter for the restaurant known for its over-fire cooking since 2011. Restaurateur Razak Helalat have moved The Coal Shed to a more spacious setting, allowing for an expanded menu that builds on the restaurant’s signature style.

Masters of Fire

While the over-fire beef remains a highlight, the menu now features a diverse range of meats, hearty vegetables, and vegan options, all cooked with the same fiery technique. The Coal Shed Brighton’s new site places a strong emphasis on seafood, offering a selection of raw and flame-cooked dishes, as well as an exclusive Sturia caviar menu.
