Shelter Hall

Description

Shelter Hall is a re-imagined food hall by the sea unlike any other, serving non-stop originality and curated menus to the good people of Brighton. With seven rotating kitchens, two bars, seaview terrace and intimate balconies, this is the place to settle in.

In the summer, grab a chair on the balcony or terrace, enjoy live music and experience international cuisine. Throughout the winter join us for supper clubs, gigs in our secret bar, and one-off pop ups from renowned chefs. Come for the food. Stay for everything else.

  • Churrasco - Churrasco brings the soul of the Portuguese barbecue to Brighton, celebrating simple, fire-cooked food done properly.

  • 3Bros Burgers - Sussex wagyu burgers from humble beginnings
  • Temaki Bros - Temaki Bros began with Alastair Green’s lifelong obsession with sushi.
  • Lost Boys Chicken - Born and raised by the sea, Tom set out with one bold mission: to bring the electric energy of London’s fried chicken scene to his hometown.
  • VIP Pizza - Traditional pizzas from pizzaiolos spanning five generations. A Brighton staple hailing from Naples.
  • ThaiAngle - Our commitment is simple: We make everything we can from scratch to ensure every dish is as fresh, authentic, and delicious as the street food that inspired it.
