After 11 years of pop-ups and residencies across Brighton, The Set opens its first permanent home at 9 Preston Road on Wednesday 27 May 2026. Just 12 seats, no phones and a 12 to 15 course tasting menu from chefs Dan Kenny and Marcin Miasik.

Brighton’s best restaurants in 2026 where locals actually eat, from hidden gems in the Lanes to popular Hove favourites and independent spots worth booking ahead.
