Chez Mal at Malmaison Brighton
Chez Mal is set in the prime position of Brighton’s bustling marina, part of the Malmaison Hotel and open to all for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The view alone should bring you here as the Malmaison boasts the biggest and best terrace in Brighton for overlooking the sea. Their food and drink are a further reason to venture out of the city centre to get well fed in comfortable and elegant surroundings. Chez Mal is known for its contemporary dining and signature cocktails.
They serve up classic and seasonal dishes with a modern twist from a passionate team. The chefs have curated a menu that revolves around quality and flavour with a strong focus on prime grass-fed British beef, succulent steaks and sides to die for. The famous Afternoon Teas and Cocktail Making Parties make Chez Mal a firm favourite for all occasions, all year round. With the addition of Free Parking there’s no excuse not to visit.
Grilled to Perfection
Grilled food is the star of the show at Chez Mal. Well matured and choice cuts from the butchers who supply the Royal family are the huge temptations of the Grill menu. Flat Iron, New York Strips, Ribeye and Fillets, seasoned and cooked to personal perfection with sumptuous sauce choices and sides will sate your steak-filled desires. Steak Night Thursdays are a big hit with the locals with a brilliant 50% off steaks deal.
Beef, Blue Cheese or Mushroom and Halloumi burgers sandwiched between billowy buns are big favourites. Salads & Pasta dishes to a Boneless Half Chicken, Catch of the Day and Harissa Roasted Heritage Carrots served from the grill suggests that Chez Mal are eager to cater for every diner.
Sunday Roast
Chez Mal keeps Sunday Lunch simple with just one hero dish on their roast card! The star of the show is their signature Grass Fed Sirloin of Beef. When they do this meat so well, arguably why have any of the others. Well actually, if beef isn’t your bag, but you want Sunday Roast vibes you can choose any dish from the A la Carte menu and add the full roast trimmings to whatever you wish. If you want to ‘Sunday Roast Up’ the catch of the day you can, same with the half Chicken, or roasted Harissa carrots. It’s great to have this amount of choice on a Sunday, especially if you have kids in the mix.
The Sirloin of Beef can be chosen for one or for sharing, with superb side dishes; yorkies, cauliflower cheese, crispy tatties and tenderstem broccoli. Sunday Lunch at the Chez Mal is not to be rushed, the team wants to make sure you are well fed and to give you quality time with your favourite people. If you want to feel a little better about indulging in lashings of delicious food, we suggest a pre or post Sunday Lunch walk, sauntering along the seafront below the chalky cliffs working up an appetite or walking off that naughty pud – and as an extra bonus there is free car parking too.
Afternoon Tea
The Malmaison has always been a firm favourite for an Afternoon Tea – and we know why. They add the element of surprise to this beloved dining experience in all the right ways. They love the tradition of sipping tea, or bubbles, munching on a dainty sandwich – but prefer to add a twist or two in terms of seasonality or trends…a cunning way to keep you coming back for more. As well as the afternoon tea delights, the location is just perfect for a gathering. The vibe is chilled, whilst the decor is fire – and on a sunny day there is no better place to be than sitting on the terrace, soaking up the sun with a scone in sight and a glass of fizz in hand.
Cocktails
Cocktails at the Chez Mal are next level good. The magically titled Malchemists serve up pleasure in a glass. With the playfulness, mirroring their version of Afternoon Tea, the cocktail menu has twists and turns that will delight. Olive & Rosemary Maltonicals, Salted Caramel Espresso Martini, and 4 choices of Negroni drinks are just some of the fine flavours the mixologists have to offer.

Get the Party Started at Malmaison Brighton
We’ve waxed lyrical about the prime location of Chez Mal so it should be no surprise that we recommend it for future parties and meeting space too. The Bar, the restaurant, the terrace and the adjoining rooms are all gorgeous, spacious …and did I already mention free parking! There is a secret room within a room in the main dining area – a table for 16 surrounded by sheer drapes that can be closed up enough for your dinner party to feel private, but still very much picking up the atmosphere of the evening.

Getting There
The Malmaison in Brighton is such a lovely venue to visit. The location is excellent and the views are stunning as it sits on the marina. We had a cooked breakfast and it was faultless. The staff are welcoming and friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. The rooms are nicely decorated and very clean. We always stay here when we visit Brighton and I highly recommend. We love, love, love, love this boutique hotel.
Sunday menu is best in Brighton. Get there early. Excellent farmers table selection
Visited Malmaison for Sunday lunch and it was really good food and service. Also had afternoon tea which was different to the usual conventional offering. We had wraps and mini burgers, great scones and lovely assortment of cakes
No expense spared, modern, trendy and quite magnificent. Superb Sunday sharing lunch . Farmers table followed by beef which was presented on an elegant table stand which included all the trimmings. Highly recommended!
