From our homemade apple sauce to the coal-roasted carrots, every element of our roasts is given the same amount of love and attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And third is the sharing.<\/strong> I think the way we serve our roasts on a massive platter makes it an occasion not just a meal. Growing up, Sunday lunch in my house was a time we all got together and passed food around the table as a family, that is the essence of what we have tried to create at Embers.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 8202px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/178A7360.jpg?tr=w-8192,c-at_max\" alt=\"Sunday Roast at Embers, award winners for best roast in 2025\" width=\"8192\" height=\"5464\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">The sharing roast at Embers<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Do you have a top tip for cooking a great Sunday roast at home? What\u2019s one simple way to elevate it?<\/h3>\n<p>There are lots of tips I could give about Sunday roasts, but I think the most important one is to rest your meat, most people take their joint out of the oven and slice it straight away, rest that meat for almost as long as you cook it, this will give it time to relax, tenderise and develop flavour.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/img.restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/24.03.23_Embers_Tonic_0163-scaled.jpg?tr=w-2560,c-at_max\" alt=\"chefs at the pass at Embers restaurant in Brighton\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1829\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>What do you enjoy most about working in hospitality?<\/h3>\n<p>It sounds clich\u00e9, but the people, the customers, of course, and the staff.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I&#8217;m lucky to have an incredibly talented passionate team who care almost as deeply about the restaurant as I do and really believe in what we&#8217;re doing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>They are one of the main reasons I get out of bed in the morning!<\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s been the biggest challenge you\u2019ve faced at Embers so far, and how did you overcome it?<\/h3>\n<p>Everyday is a massive challenge when you own a restaurant, some bigger than others<\/p>\n<p>If I listed every single one, it would be a big list. I think the biggest challenge for any restaurant is filling it. That takes time and maybe a bit of luck, and obviously other things like good marketing and strategy.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>You could be serving the best food in the world, but if no-one hears about it than you wont last long.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I think I have learned that the only way you overcome any challenge is remembering that this is just happening now and tomorrow and there will be another day with fresh challenges, though that&#8217;s not always easy to do!<\/p>\n<h3>Your open kitchen and industrial design are a big part of the embers experience \u2013 where did the idea come from?<\/h3>\n<p>The idea of Embers came from a summer bbq <a href=\"https:\/\/embersbrighton.co.uk\/our-story\/\">Isaac<\/a> , myself and quite a few other friends did together where we all ended up sitting round a fire at the end of the night, it kind of dawned on me how entranced we were by the fire and I felt that if we could replicate that in a restaurant setting than we could have something!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18326\" src=\"https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DAVE-MARROW-AND-ISAAC-COPELAND.jpg\" alt=\"DAVE MARROW AND ISAAC COPELAND, sitting at Embers restaurant in brighton\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DAVE-MARROW-AND-ISAAC-COPELAND.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DAVE-MARROW-AND-ISAAC-COPELAND-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DAVE-MARROW-AND-ISAAC-COPELAND-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DAVE-MARROW-AND-ISAAC-COPELAND-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So it was always key the fire had to be front and centre, there was also something primal about it, medieval, which I think led to the dark industrial look we have.<\/p>\n<p>It happened organically, really. I knew what I wanted, but Isaac is really good at translating it, and I think we ended up pretty close to what we imagined around that fire years ago.<\/p>\n<h3>From a practical perspective, how does the open kitchen set-up compare to a traditional kitchen layout?<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s a different ball game really, you&#8217;re on show and there&#8217;s much less room for error.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I think ours is one of the most open around as well, we also have a massive open fire to contend with and not that much space, so it certainly has its challenges! But it&#8217;s a lot of fun too!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17608 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/jobs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Dave-Marrow-Embers-restaurant-BrightonA8195-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Marrow, the head chef from embers smiling.

I think it&#8217;s almost become the most important thing, certainly at the start, the world has become social media-led to a degree that if you don&#8217;t have a presence, then you don&#8217;t really have a chance.<\/p>\n<p>There are exceptions to the rule, but not many! 10- 15 years ago if you were truly great at what you do, word would get around and you would be busy. You need much more than that nowadays, and in fact you don&#8217;t need to be that good just have a good marketing strategy and you will be busy!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If you can do both than you really have something! Social Media is a great tool but also a dangerous one if you don&#8217;t get things right, so a really good well thought out marketing strategy is essential.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>What are some of the most popular dishes on your menu right now?<\/h3>\n<p>Our summer plates menu is all based around being a perfect BBQ and has been one of our most popular yet, we brought back the lamb ribs which were on our very first menu and they are going down a storm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/img.restaurantsbrighton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/178A7789.jpg?tr=w-8192,c-at_max\" alt=\"Sharing summer plates at embers restaurant. 5 black plates shot from above\" width=\"8192\" height=\"5464\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Can you tell us more about your Feast Menu \u2013 what can diners expect?<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/embersbrighton.co.uk\/the-embers-feast\/\">The Embers Feast menu<\/a> is a sharing menu taking some of our favourite plates off the current menu and then a beautiful Sirloin steak cooked our way over the Embers.
