a Islingword Rd0.2 mi from Hove centrelast reviewed April 2026

The brunch draws the room; the coffee is good enough to order on its own terms. An earl grey latte with espresso on the menu is the kind of detail that separates a considered drinks list from an afterthought.

A food-first room in Hove where the coffee holds its own.

What we love

  • Earl grey latte with espresso among the drinks options; someone built this menu with intention
  • Seasonal brunch menu across food and drinks
  • Coffee and tea given equal billing to the kitchen, not treated as a default add-on

Pelicano Coffee Co.★★★ Purist

Pelicano have been roasting in Brighton since 2014, and the Hove cafe is the retail end of a serious wholesale operation. The baristas know the product because it's theirs, and they'll say something if you reach for the sugar.

Bam's Kitchen★ Everyday

A seasonal kitchen in Hove with Red Roaster coffee on the side. Food leads; the coffee is worth having.

The Milk Shed Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist
The Lanes

The roaster is in the room, live, while you order. Get the Yirgacheffe as a filter and take a bag of the same lot on the way out.
