Born from the love of cooking on fire The Coal Shed Brighton is a steak restaurant with relaxed, elegant surroundings in the heart of Brighton. We’ve been named as one of the best restaurants in the UK by the prestigious Observer Food Monthly awards, and have also been recommended by The Telegraph, The Guardian, the Brighton & Hove Foodie Awards and many others.

Our method at The Coal Shed is simple: the highest quality ingredients, sourced as locally as possible and expertly cooked. As well as a seasonal à la carte menu, we also offer daily specials, a great value express lunch and pre theatre menu plus Brighton's favourite Sunday Sharing Roasts.

Please be advised that The Coal Shed is now a cashless venue

A really nice lunch for a special day out. However, hugely overpriced for what we had - 2 x sirloin, 2 x sauces, 2 x side dishes, 1 x bread, carafe of red to share, over £100. If you just order steak, that's all you get, not even a salad garnish. Don't get me wrong it was delicious and the service was attentive, but the micro itemised prices add up rapidly to make it a massive cost. A shame - £65/70 maybe would have seen us come back, but that'll be just our one visit!!

A real find. Great steaks perfectly cooked and a decent variety for those who are not great meat eaters. My wife's crab was delicious. A good small wine list and house wines were good value. Quite a small intimate place close to everything important in Brighton
