Six - Brighton & Hove

Western Road's got a fair few places competing for your attention, but Six slots in nicely as the sort of spot you'd genuinely want to return to. It's got that comfortable, unfussy vibe—nothing trying too hard, just good food and wine done properly. You're looking at honest cooking that doesn't overcomplicate things, the kind of place where locals book a table midweek and end up chatting to the staff like they own the gaff. The wine programme's a genuine draw; it's curated without being pretentious, which is rarer than you'd think in Brighton these days.
