Inside Lavash restaurant

The restaurant is arranged over two floors. On entering you’re greeted by the open kitchen, with a tandoor and grill, where you can watch as your meals are freshly prepared.

Upstairs there’s a rustic and light dining space that benefits from a conservatory roof at the rear and large windows looking down onto the high street at the front. It feels like a real sanctuary from the outside world especially at the front with its brass tray tables and cushioned benches.

In the evening the restaurant becomes a beautiful and romantic restaurant in the city centre. The lighting dims and candles twinkle among the displays of engraved brass teapots, trays and Turkish coffee pots that line the walls.

Local, fresh and accommodating.

Lavash Brighton is the name of a type of tandoor bread, which is freshly made to order in the restaurant. It’s a bubbly, chewy flatbread, perfect for scooping up delicious hummus, baba ganoush and tender slithers of lamb kebab.

At Lavash it’s not just the flat breads that are made fresh and in-house. Everything is prepared in their kitchen for authentic and fresh flavour. While the food is Middle Eastern Lavash are keen to utilise the abundance of quality local produce.
