VEL RESTAURANT BRIGHTON - (Near East Sussex, london)

Bertie Hutchinson Myself, my parents and my big brother have just enjoyed an absolutely delicious breakfast courtesy of the very accomplished chef and kitchen staff. Exemplary service from the lovely Debbie- from the moment we entered we were greeted with a big smile and a friendly interaction. You get the feeling nothings too much to ask and although this is a popular spot, the atmosphere is very calm. We are all vegetarians and the options available are very good. Definitely recommend and look forward to returning in the future!

Ace Since walking in, you’re greeted with an authentic vibe the music alone sets such a relaxing atmosphere. I ordered the Adana kebab and honestly, that was the best Adana I’ve ever had. I’m not even kidding it literally melts in your mouth, and the sides that come with it just complete the whole dish. I definitely recommend it for first‑timers like me.

Oscar Wan Great Food!!! I went with my granddaughter and the food felt authentic. Our waitress Annika is wonderfully pleasant and a great lady to have a conversation with!

Sam Hesketh Had one of the most delicious meals ever, from the minute we arrived we were warmly welcomed & taken to our table. The service & food was exceptional I cannot fault it in any way. The zucchini frites was the best I’ve ever had! Light, crisp & moorish. I wish I lived nearer.

KC The smell alone told me everything I needed to know and wow it didn’t disappoint. Incredible, great staff. This is my first review but the food slapped so much that it felt wrong not to give these guys the gratitude they deserve!! Don’t miss out!!!

Juliet Yang First time visiting the UK and Brighton for my graduation ceremony, and I randomly discovered this pub. It’s absolutely a must-visit. The atmosphere is cool and cozy, with a great selection of beers. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming (shout-out to Paul, Ben, and the chef!). I ordered the chicken burger (something I’d never tried before) and it completely surprised me. So good! The chef even came out to check that everything was okay, which was such a thoughtful touch. As an Asian female solo traveler, I felt completely safe and genuinely welcomed here. I loved sitting at the bar and chatting with the staff. I’ll definitely remember this place and will come back again.
