The Regency Restaurant

131 King's Road, Brighton, BN1 2HH

It is the oldest and most popular seafood seafront restaurant in Brighton. The restaurant was build in 1817 and was the palatial seaside residence of Mr Thomas Coutts who was the founder of Coutts & Co the Royal Bank. A grade II listed building it still has most of the original features that Thomas Coutts chose so as to turn it into a truly palatial home. It was turned in to a restaurant in 1930 and has since then been serving fresh local fish. It is a popular haunt for celebrities and food critics alike. To invoke the name 'Regency' in Brighton is to incite opposition, particularly if you happen to use it to name what is an unashamedly populist and upmarket chippy. Its no-nonsense, straightforward approach to presentation, served by naturally friendly staff is greatly loved by residents and visitors alike and you will seldom, if ever, see it anything less than busy.

REVIEWS OF The Regency Restaurant

Perter (12 February 2009)

I love going to Regency as I’ve never been disappointed, the members of staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. I love those scallops in garlic and sesame seed, it’s out of this world and the mussels are so fresh there are no words to describe it. I really enjoy going there and the prices are good too.

Trencherman (23 October 2007)

The Regency is my favourite Sunday lunchtime restaurant in Brighton. Perhaps if you book you can get a table quickly but just turning up often works or it's a, call back in thirty minutes. I'm not a white wine drinker but something icy and sharp complements the predictable but excellent Sunday roast and seven vegetable alternatives I always choose-the crab salad.

I've never been disappointed, never taken less than two hours for lunch and left feeling full up and satisfied with the world. The Regency is just pitched too close to town for a taxi and a little too far to walk and as it's always, windy the warmth that greets you as you open the door and have your glasses immediately steam up is very comforting. Oh, I once had the pan fried scallops, it was excellent and the fish and chips I see on other tables look good value for money. But please avoid Sunday lunch as I need a table too.
