The Gothic Crab - (Near East Sussex, South East)

5 /5 CJ HADDEN: Really amazing experience. Me and my lovely girlfriend were celebrating our anniversary and wanted somewhere to have our first seafood boil and this place came highly recommended. From the moment we came through the door to the moment we left the service was exceptional and well above what we were expecting. They were friendly informative and made us feel very welcome. The food was second to none and absolutely gorgeous that even though it was huge portions we wanted to battle through it was that good. Definitely coming back soon and couldn’t recommend highly enough

5 /5 Jo Fox: Booked a table here for my daughters 16th birthday, she had seen a seafood boil and wanted to try one. It did not disappoint, the food was lovely, fresh and she left full up. The bill was more expensive than a usual eat out for us but it included the service charge (and the service was good) a bottle of wine and oysters. Id eat there again if back in Brighton. Id definitely book to avoid disappointment as only a small eatery, beautifully decorated too.

5 /5 Couple Of Travel Makers: This is THE best seafood restaurant in Brighton! We’ve been wanting to try The Gothic Crab for ages and we were not disappointed. Firstly the staff and service there were fantastic, very welcoming, helpful and had a great energy about them. The Head Chef/Manager Jake couldn’t do enough for us. Inside is a majestic interior design with chandeliers, gold velvety and dark walls that compliment the name. The seafood boils are a popular choice but we tried their newest menu of appetisers and small plates which were delightful! (With a couple of aperitifs on the side of course). Oyster Shooter, Popcorn Cockles, Soft Shell Crabs, (OMG!) Green Lip Muscles, Red Prawns, Crab Loaded Fries, (Double OMG) and Deep Fried Oysters. Honestly the best Seafood we’ve ever had, these plates with sooo tasty! We also got to have a sneak peek of the new refurbished downstairs for private hire which looked awesome for party’s and events with the friends/family or work doos. We will 100% be going back with our friends and family to share this epic seafood restaurant. Thanks to Jake and the team for a wonderful experience and food!
