Fatto A Mano, North Laine
Fatto A Mano are far from the new kids on the block in Brighton’s food scene with their London Road and Hove branches already a firm favourite amongst pizza lovers. However a third restaurant is on the way and will be located in the heart of Brighton’s North Laine, bustling Kensington Gardens. With room for over 50 guests inside and some additional outside seating this site will be their biggest yet, and we have no doubt it will be as popular as its sisters!

Tilt Coffee Shop is a long standing favourite with the locals, but after their recent refurbishment their offering has been taken to a whole new level. The menu includes seasonal salads and veggie sides made daily along with cakes and baked goodies. Speciality coffee is served with a warm welcoming smile and outside seating is available providing the perfect spot for a bit of people watching. Visit their Facebook page for menu updates.
