Coffee Shops · Brighton
Tucked away on Elm Grove, this is a small, cosy spot with beautiful interiors and chilled background music — the sort of place where you can get a buggy in the door, park it, and not feel like you're in everyone's way. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone's melting down: the toasties are a standout (the cheese gets specific praise), along with almond croissants, fresh pastries, borek, hot chocolate and baklava. There's a mezze platter with hummus, falafel, olives and salad that's easy to share with picky eaters, plus vegan options and a kids' menu. High chairs, outdoor seating and reasonable prices for what you get. The owners are the reason people keep coming back — warm, remember faces, nothing's too much trouble. It's genuinely small, though, so a weekend lunch rush can feel tight.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
