And can I give a special mention to Lucky Star at the bottom of Trafalgar St and Bardsley's as my favourites.

Exactly.

Not in Surrey
Not been to the Brighton restaurant, but if it is like the Wembley branch it is best avoided. Rows and rows of food all kept warm(ish) under lights.
A restaurant that is Jack of all trades, master of none.

If this place is at the marina then I'd suggest Nandos is a better option if you have 10-15 pounds to spend.
I'd suggest not going to the Marina in the first place, adding whatever you saved on travel to the 10-15 pounds and getting something decent in town.
Yeah - I have heard that AYCE Pasta and Pizza place on East Street is pretty swish?

I don't know why people go to the Marina to eat, most of it is boring predictable and overpriced. oddly, people like the idea of sitting outside so that passers by can see them eating there, I'd be ashamed If someone I knew saw me in any of those places.
I can see the attraction of eating there if you're from out of town and/or doing some shopping.

And for those of us that don't live in the centre of Brighton and who are perhaps visiting the cinema?

That's another can of worms HT, why go to the Marina for shopping ? it is either hugely overpriced handbag or designer shops empty of customers or its the Factory Shop, or The Works type of places. Must be the most boring job in the world working there. Oh I forgot the Jewel of The Marina, Asda.

Are you unable to go 2-3 hours without a meal then Notters ? if so, there is always the 2 Litre popcorn pots and 1 Litre Cokes to keep off the pangs of starvation in the cinema.

I was going to suggest taking a sandwich.
Oh, I know it's each to their own but the Marina is one of those places that I just don't get. Probably a five minute drive from beautiful architecture and interesting pubs and someone has seen fit to recreate Crawley, Milton Keynes or Northampton's Sixfields but with boats.

I don't think he was saying there's anything wrong with appreciating good food (because there really isn't), more that some people are very quick to sneerily judge somewhere based on price/location and nothing else.
To carry on the football comparison, it'd be like a Spurs fan writing off all lower league football without ever actually attending/watching a match.

You're a tough customer today
The cinema then
Sorry HT I've already finished my first issue of Build the Millenium Falcon and I'm a bit ratty as I won't be able to get Issue 2 with the free screwdriver for another 10 days.
