Brighton: Walking Food Tour (Vegan and Vegetarian options)

1. Brighton: Walking Food Tour (Vegan and Vegetarian options)

Explore Brighton's buzzing streets and alleyways filled with independent stores, bars, and restaurants and go on an adventure through our unique food scene, whilst you also discover some of the most iconic sights and areas. Be mesmerized when walking through the North Laine (a former slum area), the Lanes (where Brighton's oldest streets are), and gaze at the Brighton Pier, Royal Pavilion, the Dome (where Abba started their career) and so on. Brighton is known for being a bit different from other places, but in a good way! And this is also reflected in the choices of our taster stops. If you expect something "standard" that can be found anywhere else, this tour is not for you. But if you are open-minded and curious, we will spoil you and your senses with home cooked meals, vegan treats, award-winning tasters, hidden spots and above all some tasty food. We also have vegan and vegetarian options available. Just get in touch to let us know. Brighton is not like any other place, and this is what we want to reflect in our tours as well. We look forward to hosting you!

We had the such a great time on the chocolate tour, Hannah was the perfect guide. So friendly, great with the children and really knowledgeable about Brightons history. She appeared to have a great rapport with the people in the places we stopped at which was fantastic. The tour itself was just brilliant. Id recommend it to anyone with a sweet tooth or even as an interesting way to see the sights. Definitely a must do when visiting Brighton! Thanks again Hannah x

We had a really fun couple of hours - the clues were just the right level of difficulty for me and my teenage daughter. We got them all without asking for clues but some took longer than others. We also saw parts of Brighton we hadn’t otherwise seen and learnt some fun facts along the way

Couldn’t understand what to do after the first meet point Couldn’t understand the woman on the phone Doesn’t half hour texting s woman on what’s app Kids got bored So we just went to the beach Not user friendly Would. Not recommend

Really well thought out treasure hunt that helped us find places in Brighton that we wouldn’t have found ourselves.

It was a fun unique way to see the sites and learn the history.
