Isaac Bartlett-Copeland’s ambitious and ultra-local operation in Brighton’s boho North Laine is “so original and never the same twice”, with its ‘taste of Sussex’ menus and an all-English list of wines. The “NYC vibe” goes too far for some tastes (“well-meaning front of house told us everything, and I mean absolutely everything, about every dish…”)

‘Brighton on your plate’ is the watch-word at Isaac Bartlett-Copeland’s tiny North Laine operation – to which you could add ‘Sussex in your glass’. But it’s the “all-round high quality” of the cooking and preparation as much as the hyper-localist enthusiasm of the young team that wins consistently high ratings for the venue.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
