Top five Brighton Coffee Shops you need to visit

Say goodbye to boring chains and hello to the best Brighton coffee shops…

When it comes to coffee shops, your same old Starbucks, Costa’s and Cafe Nero’s can get pretty tedious. After all, there are only so many times you can justify paying £4 for a cup of coffee and sit in an atmosphere-less room that is the same in every single town you visit. This is where the independent cafes really come in and why they should be your top choice. Brighton is filled with a whole abundance of these for you to enjoy and no matter if you’re looking for somewhere to catch up with friends or to take your laptop and get down to work there is one to suit. Here are our favourite Brighton coffee shops…

Black Mocha Black-Mocha-Brighton

Nestled right in the centre of the Laines, Black Mocha is simple yet quirky, with a blend of the contemporary and the kooky – and it works. It works very well.

Hide in the back with a book on one of their vintage-style armchairs or relax outside with an iced lemonade when the sun shines.
