Beach babes

Brighton beach days are born for the school holidays. Hours of fun can be had splashing around and working up a mighty appetite. When your little ones tum start rumbling, you won’t be caught short of kid-friendly lunch stops. Lucky Beach Cafe serves quality local produce. Their strong sustainable policy means you’ll be doing the children and their worldly inheritance good in one easy move.

Ohso is perfectly positioned right next to the Palace Pier. They offer a fantastic range of family favourite dishes and if the kids don’t eat too much ice cream, you could head for a post-lunch ride on the Dodgems.

Shelter Hall is a much-loved Brighton location. The food hall houses six regular kitchens, one guest pop-up and offers a dedicated kids menu. The indoor/outdoor location is perfect for kids to tear around between the beach and your observation station.
