Drakes

43-44 Marine Parade, Brighton

The well-established restaurant at Drakes, one of Brighton’s leading boutique hotels, offers a laid back yet classically elegant setting that’s perfect for a spot of supper. Crisp linens and fresh hues are set against exposed brick. Chef Andrew MacKenzie’s Australian-influenced dishes are served up delicately on slate boards and his regularly changing repertoire uses the very best in seasonal produce. Order crispy calves tongues with buttered asparagus and pea salad or local sea trout with roasted leeks and a hazelnut pesto. A strong Sunday lunch offering is a massive draw for the local crowd.
