Police_Museum_LOTI

For something a little more down-to-earth, head over to the Old Police Cells Museum. Free tours are led by retired police officers, so you’re sure to get some good stories, and there’s plenty of old gear for you to play with.

THE ROYAL PAVILLION

4/5 Pavilion Buildings, Brighton BN1 1EE

royal-pav-LOTI

Just like the pier, the Royal Pavilion is another local icon that deserves your time. It’s got a banqueting room, it’s got chandeliers, and it’s got King George IVs state bed (complete with tipping mechanism…he was very, very overweight).

AFLOAT

250 King's Rd, Brighton BN1 1NB

afloat-LOTI

Brighton’s got a bangin’ arts scene so keep your eyes peeled for the many public artworks dotted around town. Our fave is ‘Afloat’ aka the giant doughnut…go forth and insta…

BRITISH AIRWAYS I360

Kings Road, Brighton BN1 2LN

BA-LOTI

Instead of going out to sea, go up with a “flight” on the British Airways i360 “vertical pier”. The latest addition to the landscape has divided opinion but the views are bloody good from up there.

BRIGHTON PIER

Brighton Pier, Madeira Drive, Brighton

Brighton LOTI

Go to Brighton and see the pier. Yeah we know it’s rather obvious but how can you not? Take a spin round the arcade, munch on a stick of rock and get your snap of the burnt-out West Pier.

THE BASKETMAKERS

12 Gloucester Rd, Brighton BN1 4AD

Basketmakers-LOTI

A cosy corner-pub with simple menu of pub comfort-food classics and a decent ale selection. A perfect spot for a quiet drink.

FORTUNE OF WAR

157 King's Rd, Brighton BN1 1NB

Fortune-Of-War-LOTI

For a more traditional pub, try the Fortune of War; a ship-shaped, ship-shape pub on the seafront. (Try saying that one quickly…)

THE BLACK DOVE

74 St James's St, Brighton BN2 1PA

GELATO GUSTO

2 Gardner St, Brighton BN1 1UP

Make sure you grab a scoop of Gelato Gusto or, if you’re feeling really extravagant, try their GELATO BURGER; a brioche bun stuffed with gelato and choccie sauce.

SILO

39 Upper Gardner St, North Laine, Brighton BN1 4AN

Silo-LOTI

For something a little bit different try Silo, the UK’s first no waste restaurant.

BARDSLEY'S

22/23/23a Baker Street, Brighton

bardsleys-LOTI

You can’t beat a bag of chips from Bardsley’s – the place has been there since 1921, so it must be doing something right!

THE LITTLE FISH MARKET

10 Upper Market St, Hove BN3 1AS

littlefish-brighton-LOTI

For a local catch head to The Little Fish Market and work your way through their five course tasting menu curated by Duncan Ray, a chef previously at Blumenthal’s The Fat Duck.

ISAAC AT

2 Gloucester St, Brighton BN1 4EW

isaac-at-loti

Head chef Isaac Barlett-Copeland is the man behind Brighton’s Isaac At which has been running in a temporary supperclub format since March 2015 and has now gone permanent. This is a very good thing indeed as Isaac is cooking some incredible food, made even more remarkable by the fact that he’s only 22.

Isaac At has a format that will be familiar to Londoners: a paired back aesthetic; a set tasting menu; and an informal yet fine-dining influenced approach to service. This isn’t just Hackney transported to the seaside, however, as Isaac is committed to highlighting the best Sussex produce right down to the matched drinks pairing of Sussex wines or juices.

isaac-at-loti-2

We kicked off with snacks of roasted carrot with crispy puffed rice and salted pollock with cauliflower, hazelnut and parsley which were both very impressive. Then were a couple of meaty dishes, a beautiful crispy lamb belly and smoked broccoli and then roast chicken with salt baked celeriac and gem lettuce. A palate cleanser of apple, quince and bay sorbet was next, followed by a final dessert of poached pear, rosehip, honey and cardamom ice cream.

Isaac At is a fantastic spot for locals – and for Londoners its well worth the trip down to the seaside.
