Curry Leaf Cafe
60 Ship Street, Brighton, BN1 1AE
About
Curry Leaf Cafe serves South Indian and Keralan-style food from a busy corner site on Ship Street, built around dosas, curries, and a strong vegetarian and vegan selection alongside meat and fish dishes. It runs lunch and dinner sittings split across the day, and the cooking has a lighter, more homestyle character than a typical British curry house. It is good value for the Lanes, casual enough for a quick meal, and popular enough that booking ahead on a weekend evening is worth doing. It gives a genuine alternative to Brighton's seafood-and-modern-British mainstream.
