Found in the heart of the Brighton Lanes and run by the charismatic Brighton restaurateur, Coco Cowan, Coco's Bistro is one of Brighton’s premiere seafood restaurants – though we always have a little steak for those who prefer it and will happily create something vegetarian‘off-menu’ if requested. Originally a fisherman’s cottage, Coco's Bistro has been a specialist seafood restaurant for more than 50 years. We’ve retained a traditional decorative style which helps create an intimate and comfortable atmosphere whether you’re having a simple one-course lunch or a three-course dinner. When the weather is good we also have tables outside for eating alfresco. We pride ourselves on using the best local fresh fish where possible. Besides our regular favourites such as Fish Pie our menu changes daily depending on the best of the catch from our suppliers. We also source the best, freshest locally grown produce and ingredients to use with and in our cook

    This is an amazing pub full of atmosphere with different spaces to enjoy. The inside is great if you want to stay sheltered, but there's the outside garden with seating and a teepee to enjoy. The people are friendly and welcoming, which is really nice. The food was wonderful and clearly home made, which made this extra special. Too often pubs serve reheated food delivered to them, whereas the Sloop Inn clearly takes pride in the food they serve. We will be returning, especially in the warmer summer months.
