"We do not eat alone, but in families, or sets of friends and comrades; and the table is the best centre of the friendships and of the domestic affections.”
Charles W. Elliot
Dear Friends,
Welcome to our new Food For Friends website. After it first opened in 1981 Food For Friends quickly established itself as one of Brighton's best loved counter service restaurants. Twenty-three years later we took on the challenge of bringing this restaurant into the 21st century without compromising its well earned reputation for inspirational, imaginative and delicious food. Its total refurbishment in February 2005 has created a relaxed but elegant, table service restaurant in which we continue to provide gourmet vegetarian food, cooked to order, using local produce and increasingly organic and fair-trade produce.
Our menu this season has many global influences which range from chrysanthemum hummus to warm haloumi fresh mango and avocado salad, and from tempura maki to poached Sussex pears. The menu not only contains a majority of vegan and gluten-free dishes, but a wide range of low fat options for those of you looking for the really healthy options. We can assure you that all of the flavour, texture and presentation are still there.
As the new owners at Food For Friends, we have worked hard to see the restaurant through its facelift and we won't rest in our quest for perfection. Our staff are highly trained and share our passion for good food, wine and high standards of service. However we value your opinion and suggestions and encourage you to comment on your visit.
We will be celebrating our 25th anniversary in 2006. To mark this milestone we will hold many different events throughout the year. If you would like us to send you details of these events and special offers, please leave your email contact details on the contact page.
See you soon
Ramin & Jane
