The food here is lovely, the atmosphere is amazing, they have 3 levels including a roof terrace spot as well. I had the bacon and maple pancakes, they were amazing and definitely worth their pricing, which is also quite fair.I did not have the coffee but the cups do look quite unique and I heard no complaints :)
Definitely would come back again, when I next visit Brighton.

The fry up was nice, but it is expensive for how much you get, the wait, and only arrived lukewarm. This is a very busy cafe in the heart of the vibrant North Laine in Brighton. This meant that most things felt a bit off for our visit because of how busy it was. It fell below the standard we have seen at other Trading Post Coffee Roaster sites. If you like the company, perhaps check how busy it is before going here or check other venues. On a sunny day it was mobbed and staff looked overwhelmed. There were wrong orders and staff generally didn't know where they were taking food and coffee to. There is a sun terrace here, but service for brunch was slow and the food arrived lukewarm. The terrace is overlooked by hungry seagulls and was a paradise for wasps. Tables were not cleared and dishes and mugs were stacked up. Realistically, I don't think they should open the terrace if it has such an impact on the quality of service provided.
I will probably avoid this cafe for brunch, and only do a takeaway coffee or cake. I will stick with Trading Post's other sites in future.

Really yummy food and such incredible coffee. You get to pick the roast which is really cool. I had the Turkish eggs for lunch which were delicious and I would definitely recommend. Also a really good location on the lanes. We sat inside but there was also a really nice roof terrace (bit too cold for that that day though) and outdoor seating on the lanes.

Came to trading post in the lanes for breakfast with my friend. The service was great and staff was helpful. The presentation of our plates were good. I had a camomile tea, which was delicious and a sponge cake that was a little dry. This food was average in my opinion. i don’t really recommend seating on the outside tables with someone with food and tea pots as the tables are quite small and they bounce a little. Overall, i do recommend this place, and i might have given it xtra stars if i had eaten something different.

We only had drinks. We were outside and the staff member had gone before I noticed tea pot was chipped. Tea was ok. one of the upstairs toilets was grim with no hand towels and really badly maintained. Wasnt impressed.
