English's Of Brighton

Really good food and quite reasonably priced We first had some oysters and champagne to start with.

The food is of an incredibly high standard and is the freshest seafood I have ever had the pleasure of eating.

You know what you are getting at English's. Proper service, proper table linen, super wine list, the best oysters, traditional menu of expertly cooked fish. Expensive Yes, Does it deliver Absolutely. We shared the bread mackerel pate, oysters, 700gm dover sole, mashed potato spinach can not stop raving about it. Ver carta

We booked a table online and received a warm welcome on arrival. This is a proper old-fashioned seafood restaurant, well presented and clean with a crisp white tablecloth on the tables. Service is outstanding, warm and friendly. We had the hot seafood sharing platter and were not disappointed. It was delicious. Can’t wait to come back!

I feel compelled to post a review for Brighton's oldest fish restaurant, after an exceptional impromptu supper. We started with half a dozen delicious native oysters served on ice, followed by a superb fish and chips. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. Really enjoyed their wine recommendation. The table setting, starched table cloth and serviettes etc and general ambience made for a real treat. Thankyou!

The staff at this restaurant is very pleasant! They are polite and attentive. The mackerel patè appetizer was fantastic, we ended up ordering more! The Moules Mariniere was a huge hit, and the fries were delicious. We would definitely come back to eat here again when in the area. My only complaint is the absence of background music. It would be nicer to be able to have a private conversation without feeling like you can't. Ver carta

We had the best time at English's on Sat. The food was excellent, fresh, well cooked and well presented, and the staff warm and welcoming, adding to the already wonderful family feel of the place and making the evening very enjoyable indeed. Nothing was too much trouble. A special thanks goes to Manu, who was an invaluable help in the run up to the dinner and during, together with the lovely young lady who served us all evening with a smile. Thank you!

During my visit to Brighton, I treated my friend to some oysters at a restaurant. We ordered 6 native oysters and 2 **** Mary's from the blackboard in the window, thinking they were £6 each. It turned out that the drinks were just shots, not full cocktails, but the bartender didn't offer us a choice. We initially sat at the bar but were later asked to move to stools in front of the coat rack, leading to some inconvenience when a waitress asked us to stand for her to retrieve coats. When the bill arrived, it was over £60 with a service charge of over £8, despite minimal service at the bar. When I requested a refund on the service charge, I was only given back £6 as the rest was apparently VAT...

My wife and I visited English's for a dinner. You are served a small bread roll and a small portion of fish pate to start. My wife likes Oysters so decided to order herself half a dozen before the starter and main course. I asked if I could have an additional bread roll whilst my wife consumed her Oysters and this was granted. We were then served our starters and main course which were fabulous. We both finished with a dessert and asked for the bill. To my horror they had charged £1.35 for the additional bread roll. Bearing in mind this was a £200 bill and I am not hard up for £1.35, I just found it so penny pinching. Bear in mind there is also a £2.50 cover charge per head 12.5% service cha... Ver carta
