The Bar/Lounge at Blanch House

"The bar is one of the hippest in Brighton, where the competition is severe, and the on-site restaurant is a gastronomic delight with such offerings as seared pigeon breast with grilled salsify and butternut squash, and a fresh pea-and-mint risotto with honeyed parsnip "pearls"

"The magnificently stylish fine-dining restaurant is all white leather banquettes and space-age swivel chairs and there’s a fine cocktail bar"

"Other highlights include the free cooked-to-order breakfast and the hospitable and friendly staff, plus there’s a small, but chic, on-site bar as well as event venue space"
