Excellent pizza and lovely staff. Go when you're hungry though, these meals are not for the faint of appetite.

Drinks & Nightlife

A very cool place if you're into games, both board and screen-based. Still a good place for drinks if you're not a gamer, and dog friendly which is always a plus.

This place is awesome. My friend and I wandered in on an open mic night and ended up having an amazing time. There is something going on most evenings, and I definitely recommend Thursday, because open mics are always a good time.

A very cool place which a great outdoor area. Definitely a student venue (with a student discount), so bear that in mind if it gets a bit loud.

Sightseeing

Think of the London Eye, but vertical. Absolutely incredible views, and while it's a bit pricey, I could not recommend it more if you have the budget.

Take a tour around the palace built as a seaside holiday home for King George IV. A very interesting combination English regency and Indian and Chinese interior design.

Parks & Nature

Really beautiful gardens with plenty or space in which to sit, read, enjoy a drink, or listen to some busking. A lovely place to unwind in the centre of town.

Not a lot to add, really, it's a beach. Innumerable beach bars, shops, performers, and the pier, which houses loads of excellent rides and amusements.

Shopping

The Brighton Open Market is literally a one minute walk from that flat, and boasts a plethora of independent stalls. Good for food (the bakery and pork pie shop are personal favourites), gifts, clothes, and books.

Filled with vintage and repurposed garbs, this is place that always gets a visit from me. If you need it, I can almost guarantee they've got it.

Entertainment & Activities

Providing beautiful views of the Brighton seascape, the pier is chock-a-block full of amusements, rides, and games, and a good place to get that iconic Brightonian Instagram snap, if that's something you're interested in!
