Sawadee Brighton

Sawadee Brighton is a cosy, family-run Thai spot tucked away on St James Street in Kemptown, just a stone’s throw from the seafront. Inside, it’s all about warm vibes and authentic touches, think Buddha statues, lush pot plants, and a relaxed, intimate feel. It’s the kind of place that feels like a local secret, perfect for date nights or catching up with friends.

What makes Sawadee stand out? It’s been a Brighton favourite for years thanks to its dedication to proper Thai cooking – no gimmicks, just fresh, flavour-packed dishes made by experienced chefs who know their craft. The team prides itself on tailoring spice levels to your taste, so whether you’re a mild fan or a heat seeker, you’re in good hands. They’ve even bagged a Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award, which says a lot about the love locals and visitors have for this spot.

Run by a passionate crew who keep things friendly and fuss-free, Sawadee is all about bringing a slice of Thailand to the heart of Brighton. Expect classic curries, vibrant stir-fries, and plenty of veggie options, all served with a smile. It’s authentic, approachable, and exactly what you want when those Thai cravings hit.
