Babble

@babblehove is quickly becoming one of my favourite spots this summer. With its excellent food and drinks, warm and vibrant atmosphere, and inclusive approach, it’s a fantastic venue that caters to everyone - families, dogs, and even the occasional boozy afternoon!

We headed down over Pride weekend with the family for lunch, and as always, the atmosphere was electric, filled with great vibes all around. To top it off, they had a Pride BBQ out on the terrace. The smell as we walked in was incredible, and the food being served looked absolutely mouth watering, I couldn’t wait to dive in. We ordered from both the BBQ and the main kitchen menus (these are prepared separately, so ordered individually). From the BBQ, we chose the Korean Chicken Wings and Corn on the Cob with wild garlic peaso and butter. Both were packed with flavour and had that perfect smoky finish. We had our eyes on the Hot Dogs too, but unfortunately they’d sold out before we could get to them, though they looked fantastic! From the main kitchen, the kids had some classic favourites from their menu (a relief when dining out with little ones), and on the main menu I went for the new Chicken Thigh, Quinoa, and Broccoli dish, paired with my all time favourite Potato Tatties and Vinegar Mayo. It was delicious: healthy yet hearty, and really satisfying. My husband went for his usual, the @slamtaco Burger, which remains a standout. Honestly, it’s easily in my top Brighton burgers list! We also shared a side of Pork Tacos, a long time Babble staple, and as always, they were absolutely spot on!

I couldn’t resist trying the special Pride Rainbow FruiTea cocktail made just for the weekend. It was flamboyant, over the top, and everything you’d want from a Pride themed drink completely fabulous.

If you haven’t been to Babble yet, now’s the time! I hear the weather is looking glorious next week, so there’s no better moment to visit. The BBQ runs on sunny summer weekends check their socials for dates but the main kitchen and bar are open every day. A truly welcome addition to the Hove seafront, Babble is a venue I love returning to for any occasion!
