Namo

Tucked away on Ship Street in Brighton’s buzzing Lanes, Namo Eat is a modern Thai restaurant with a warm, pared-back interior that blends rustic wood accents with contemporary touches. It’s the kind of space that feels relaxed yet stylish, perfect for casual dinners or a laid-back date night.

The restaurant is the brainchild of chef-owner Bookie Mitchell, a Lampang-born talent with over a decade in hospitality and a passion for authentic Thai flavours. After successful pop-ups and residencies, Bookie launched Namo Eat to bring creative, vibrant Thai street food to Brighton, with a focus on fresh, healthy cooking and sustainable practices. Her culinary journey and commitment to authenticity have earned Namo a spot among Brighton’s top dining destinations.

Need-to-know? Expect progressive Thai dishes inspired by Bookie’s Northern roots, served with a modern twist. While Namo hasn’t chased Michelin stars, it’s widely celebrated locally for quality and creativity, and its ethos “we are what we eat” runs through everything, from ingredient sourcing to eco-friendly packaging for takeaways.
