We spent two short breaks in Brighton and happily found this great restaurant. Very appealing from the outside with a mouth-watering menu. We had a couple of small plates to start and then both weeks had the lamb chops. Perfectly seasoned and tasted like you were on a Greek island!

Small place where we stopped by during a summer visit due to TripAdvisor suggestion. Best sandwiches I had: all three we had were superb (beef, lamb, haddock). Tasty, crunchy, definitely local. Worth a visit, even because we spent just 20£. Super!

Bright, cheerful, small french restaurant. We had duck rilettes, and goats cheese croquettes to start, followed by pork belly and raviolo, then shared two very good puddings. The food was lovely, and very tasty. The service was pleasant and efficient. This restaurant is quite noisy, but on a good way, everybody seemed to be enjoying themselves. This was a test run for us as we have booked for Christmas lunch. Now I'm really looking forward to it.

A fantastic experience from start to finish. Staff were welcoming, and the restaurant had a warm and friendly atmosphere. The food is authentic and delicious, a real taste of Spain in the centre of Brighton. Great selection of beer and wines, all reasonably priced. The Spanish Tortilla and the Patatas Bravas are out of this world! Would recommend to anyone looking for authentic tapas!Hello Peter, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review after you time with us. We're glad you enjoyed the atmosphere as much as the food. We hope to see you again soon got more patatas bravas! Tinto Taperia

We'd planned a brief trip to Brighton but Gingerman was fully booked in the evening. We went there to have lunch instead (from a lower cost but much shorter menu), asked about that evening and they said they'd fit us in if we came at 8.30. The staff were friendly and the food of the standard you'd expect from a place with a Michelin star. With a bottle of Bobal we had the pig cheek and clam chowder starters and for mains monkfish and partridge. All shared, for that tasting menu experience. A delicious evening and it seemed a very friendly place, staff and customers. We ended up chatting to the couple on the next table and the staff gave us a little 50th anniversary dessert.

We had a fabulous evening at TheWitchez, the food was fantastic, we had a range of dietary considerations within our group which were well catered for, nothing was too much trouble. Even the dogs were well catered for. Everyone enjoyed every course/element of our meal. The service was brilliant, Maddie took the time to explain the menu, and how the individual dishes could be adapted to our requirements. The surroundings were so relaxed, it felt like we were have a lovely dinner at home. I cannot recommend TheWitchez enough, they are passionate about what they do, and genuinely care about their customers. A real gem. X
