The Coal Shed Brighton

Absolutely amazing! We came for lunch at 1pm and had a blast. Firstly, I loved the mocktail section. The amoretto sours was soo tasty and was great paired with the starters. The highlight was the scallops. The artichoke dip was ok, not the best. The burger was massive and delicious, and I especially loved the chips. Everyone loved their meals, however the short ribs were a bit too sweet.

I had the loveliest meal this evening! I was served by Jindra who I must say was one of the most brilliant waiters I have experienced for a long time. He was so attentive and we shared some nice chats in-between my courses. I had the pork belly to start which was so sweet and flavoursome. I followed that up with the short rib which is absolutely something to write home about! This was accompanied by the truffle mac and cheese which was great. I was amazingly then still hungry (due to my massive appetite, not small portion sizes!) so I had the steak tartare and chips which were both top tier! So much flavour in the steak tartare. I then had the chocolate tart for dessert which was not too sweet which I enjoyed. The two pints of guiness I had were also gorgeous! Sensational experience all around. :)

Absolutely wonderful service and experience. I had the scallops to start (stunning!) and cod which was good but would, with the other flavours on the plate (charred hispi cabbage and curried mussel sauce), benefited from a firmer fish like hake or halibut, which is much firmer. To me the cod was lost in the bold other flavours. Overall though this is an excellent restaurant and the execution of food presentation is outstanding.

We had a wonderful anniversary meal at The Coal Shed. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the beautiful interior design which stylish, warm, and perfect for a special occasion. The service was fantastic throughout. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made us feel really welcome. As it was our anniversary, they even surprised us with a little dessert, which was such a thoughtful and lovely touch. We both had steaks, and they were absolutely delicious. They were perfectly cooked & full of flavour. For sides I would particularly recommend the mac and cheese and creamy spinach. Overall, a fantastic experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend The Coal Shed for anyone looking for a great meal in a lovely setting.

We’ve just finished our meal for my birthday and I cannot fault it in any way. The service was next level. I had the fillet steak and it was the best steak I’ve had to date, without a doubt! The wine the waitress recommended was perfectly what I’d requested, and the overall experience was just perfect. Cannot thank the team enough. Next time we’re in Brighton, we’ll definitely be back!

Lively already late afternoon on a September Thursday, great atmosphere for a birthday celebration. Delicious food (we had a blow out consisting of steaks, ribs, pork belly, steak tartare and puds plus coffees but no booze). Friendly welcome and attentive but not intrusive service and a kind touch of a thoughtful birthday treat without any singing (:

What a fantastic!!! clearly very popular and justifiably so. The Sunday roast was amazing.. especially when you could see where they were hanging the beef to dry. Wonderful decor and great atmosphere.

We visited the restaurant on a Monday evening for dinner service. The lovely lady at front of house showed us to our table. Our server Serena ensured we were well looked after during our visit. The restaurant's decor is very classy and pretty atmosphere to be in. We enjoyed all courses of our dinner from starters, mains and desserts. Thank you coal shed for an amazing experience.
