If this Brighton seafood restaurant's interiors weren't quirky enough for a visit alone, its fish-inspired menu should certainly do the trick. Set in a series of caves, the pub serves up great plates of crab, mussels and scallops.
It might be a bit better known for its epic Sunday roasts but The Black Lion is also an excellent choice if you're looking for a seafood restaurant in Brighton. Try the seafood chowder with crunchy bread and sea salt butter and thank us later.
It's been a hidey hole for Brighton's fishermen for more than 500 years and The Lion and Lobster is still an excellent seafood pub.

It wouldn't be possible to list Brighton's best seafood restaurants without including Riddle and Finns, the oyster and Champagne specialists. The restaurant only has space for 40 but this makes it all the more special; perch by a marble table topped with candelabras and prepare to have all your seafood dreams come true.
