Lovely vegan meal - Edit
We had a lovely meal here. We picked the sharing tapas followed by the sharing dessert. It was all delicious. The staff were very helpful. We also had a very nice cocktail and wine. We will definitely return if we are in Brighton again.

Birthday treats - Edit
Delightful cocktails. Good staff. Tasty food. Made a gaff with a vegan side coming out with dairy on it, double checked with waiting person and it was confirmed vegan. It was dairy. Also served a dairy truffle to a vegan. One main came 15 minutes too late. BUT mistakes happen and they took side and main off bill without asking. Overall usual high standards and will always go back.

Cons: Served dairy to vegan when asked twice for vegan, One main came very very late and after his side

Hello Kelly,
Read moreThank you for your honest feedback and for highlighting both the positives and the areas where we could have done better. We're delighted that you enjoyed our cocktails, tasty food, and the service from our team, but we’re truly sorry for the mix-ups with the vegan options and the delay with one of your mains.
We take such matters very seriously, and it's disappointing to hear that we fell short of our usual high standards in this instance. However, we’re glad that the situation was handled to your satisfaction and that the items were promptly removed from your bill.
Your understanding and continued support mean a lot to us, and we’re grateful for your kind words despite the hiccups. We look forward to welcoming you back soon, and we’ll make sure to get everything just right next time!
Warm regards,
The terre à terre team 🌱

Scrumptious vegan afternoon tea! - Edit
We had the vegan afternoon tea, and it did not disappoint! Both savoury and sweet dishes were original and flavoursome (special mention for the bao bun and the chocolate cake tier!) A really nice balance of flavours and textures, with attentive staff and prompt service… Nice selection of good quality teas too! Will definitely be back to try their other menus (the sunday rosti menu sounded lovely).

Excellent tapas tasting menu with haute cuisine techniques and flavour profiles - Edit
This was our favourite meal during a trip to Brighton. We had the vegan tapas tasting menu, which sampled several dishes from their regular menu. All were obviously time-consuming to produce, with multiple components contributing to the overall flavour profile. It was refreshing to have a meal composed entirely of whole foods, using haute cuisine cooking techniques. For dessert, we had the 'Snap, Crackle and Choc', which was large enough to share and absolutely delicious. The restaurant had a comfortable vibe and the service was attentive. Although we had non-alcoholic drinks, there was a full vegan wine and cocktail menu. The only feedback I would give is that the presentation would be better if each course was served on a separate plate, in the form it's meant to be eaten, because scooping some of the dishes from the large plate they're served on inevitably leaves some of the puree or sauce they're sitting on behind. I definitely recommend Terre a Terre for a special meal.
Read morePros: Whole foods ingredients , Complex flavour profiles , Excellent service
Cons: Vegetarian, but not all vegan, Would prefer each course to be served separately

Special treat - Edit
We came here on our last trip to Brighton and enjoyed it so much we had to come again. Lovely atmosphere with friendly staff & food & wine was delicious both times. I could happily eat a plate of just the teriyaki tofu . My husband, who is veggie rather than vegan, chose to have the tofu version of the spinach rosti rather than the poached egg and was not disappointed. If, & when, we’re back in Brighton, will definitely be back again.

Outstanding - Edit
We came here as a birthday treat and it exceeded our expectations.
Read moreWe ordered the Terra a tapas for our main and it was really good. Everything was delicious, with special shout-out to the cauliflower. We also got the asparagus which was okay, but only two pieces of asparagus.
We then got the sharing dessert and it was incredible. It was so nice to have an amazing vegan dessert and every single element was gorgeous.
They also then brought us out birthday truffles at the end which was a lovely touch.
The waiter was a little bit too chatty for my liking but very friendly. Service was quite slow but it didn’t really matter. The ambience in the restaurant was lovely.

Staff were lovely, food was ok - Edit
We went here after hearing great things. We were sadly a little disappointed. The decor is a bit tired, the staff were lovely and helpful but the food I would say isn't worth the price. Lots of choice but had better in cheaper restaurants.

Delightful! - Edit
Went here for afternoon tea. I had the vegan option and my aunt and uncle had the vegetarian one.
Read moreThere is very little difference between the vegetarian and vegan - just a couple of small changes like dairy vs oat based cream for the scones.
Everything was delicious. The first course was surprising and inventive, and the cakes were a lovely mix of flavours. The teas were perfect too. It felt innovative and traditional all at once.
Highly recommend!

Afternoon tea for two - Edit
Eaten many times at this Brighton institution, but first time trying afternoon tea.
Read moreQuality excellent as always, waiter very friendly and attentive too.
Needs more of a balance between savory and sweet. Sweet items individually excellent but very rich and heavy taken together. Also, afternoon tea should provide endless supply of tea rather than just one pot.
Pros: Quality and originality of food, Knowledgeable and enthusiastic waiter
Cons: More savory needed, sweet items dominate , Tea should be endless, not just limited to one pot

Beautiful food, gorgeous presentation and flavours! More like fine dining and prices reflect this - but absolutely fair prices for the quality of the food. Four of us each had a 3-course meal, plus a bottle of wine and a couple of other drinks, this came to approx £230 (about £60 a head) not including service tip.

Creative afternoon tea, VE & GF option - Edit
Loved the afternoon tea, which was provided as two courses - plated savoury followed by tiered sweet. Steamed bun and hushpuppy were delicious and a novel alternative to finger sandwiches. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Thoroughly recommended!

If I could give this place six stars I would. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the tapas menu we had was excellent. So much thought clearly went into the preparation of each dish, and I would happily recommend this restaurant to anyone, whether they're vegetarian or vegan or not.

A disappointing visit - Edit
This restaurant needs to up its game, there is plenty of competition in Brighton.
Read moreRestaurant needs a make over, looks very dated.
They have a good and varied vegetarian choice, but limited vegan choices and both so overpriced.
I was expecting something special but left feeling very disappointed.
Pros: A couple of vegan choices, Good location, Friendly staff
Cons: So over priced, not worth the money , Disappointing vegan choices, No wow factor

Good, but lacking that wow-factor - Edit
We had mixed shared tapas to taste much from their menu. We were not blown away by the flavors, which we would expect for a high prices fine dining restaurant. The staff is friendly and the service is quite fast. They would be able to improve by adding some decorative interior and upgrade the furniture to create the right ambience. Also I missed a vegan cheese platter.
Read morePros: Staff understands veganism, Fast service
Cons: Lack of atmosphere , Expensive , No vegan cheese platter
