FROM THE TEAM BEHIND THE SALT ROOM & THE COAL SHED

Burnt Orange is about more than good food and drink. It’s a place you feel relaxed. It’s an afternoon that turns into an evening, because, when the service is this friendly, the atmosphere this easy, the music this carefully pitched and the seats this comfortable, you can’t help but settle in.

We are a neighbourhood restaurant and late-night bar in the beating heart of Brighton, moments from the seafront and just a few streets from the historic Lanes. We’re confident you’re going to love it, because it’s your idea: the grown-up hangout that’s open all day and just the right amount of night.

Food, Drink & Good Times.

There’s nothing quite like catching up with friends, so our menus are built around social food: simple, flavour-packed dishes designed for grazing.

Our new Summer menu is now available, packed with the best seasonal produce we can get our hands on. Quality ingredients cooked over fire and served with well-crafted drinks – order as individual courses, a feast for the table or just a snack with your spritz.

We take the quality of drinks seriously. So, whether you order cocktails, soft drinks, wine or beer, you’ll end up with a well-made beverage in your hand.

Turn Up Christmas at Burnt Orange

Our festive feasting menu is made for sharing because that’s how the best celebrations happen. Mezze kicks things off with charred squash hummus, spiced dips, and flatbreads from the fire, followed by plates like grilled king prawns, jalapeño-glazed duck, smoked miso aubergine, and seasonal sides. Just when you think you’re done, along comes a treacle, date & cardamom tart to keep the night going.

From tables of six to private dining that feels like your own hideaway, Burnt Orange is Brighton’s most intimate, electric and stylish Christmas spot full of atmosphere.
