The mussels were the best we have had and we have had a lot! We will definitely be back! The pizza was tasty but could have done with a little more topping.
Its the perfect spot near middle brighton station to catch up with a friend. I went to have a glass of wine and it was the perfect temperature in the room to dodge the windy winter blues. The staffs were absolutely amazing and friendly . Loved their collection of drinks.
Went last week for date night. Food and restaurant was lovely, tried the new veal schnitzel which was a a great portion and super tasty. Only complaint is that in a nearly empty restaurant we were seated right next to another couple (struggled to squeeze between tables). Other than that, really lovely!

The Dear Luncher has visited Half Moon a few times, but this recent visit has prompted a review. This was the first proper sit down lunch after a few function visits.
The charcuterie spread to begin with, was great. It was probably lacking a cheese to balance it out though. Blood sausage doesn't sound appealing, but it was probably the highlight. Fleshy, artisan level sausage. Salami was first rate, however the prosciuto was unconvincing.
The 300gram Scotch fillet was the main ordered by yours truly. Prepared medium and with Café de Paris butter plonked on top. The butter made sexual relations with the fillet, resulting in glorious union of meat and butter that was heavenly.
Mrs Luncher was having a day off the keto diet and opted for the biggest carb load possible by ordering the seafood linguine. Packed full of fish, prawns, clams and mussels - it was given two very large thumbs up from a woman that has eaten 213124 seafood pastas in her life.
With almost all Colonial Brewing beers available either on tap or via tinnies, the beer selection is superb. The Colonial IPA is one of the better IPAs going around. The courtyard is a superb place to eat, particularly when you get a day like The Dear Luncher did just recently in Brighton.
A real safe, go-to option in BRIGHHHHHH-ton.
Our decision to dine at Half Moon on a beautiful, autumn Anzac Day was perhaps not the most savvy! I say this only because the place was jam-packed and as a result, incredibly noisy. The food and service were impressive and for sure we will return on a less auspicious, quieter occasion!
Been here now a few times - great music and awesome vibes at night. I’ve had the steak before but was a little over cooked and I wasn’t a huge fan of their polenta chips either. I’ll definitely be back for a drink but most likely not a meal.
The polenta chips here are to die for. I usually order the polenta and the seafood pasta. Both are delicious and they are almost like comfort food for us.
Had dinner there for the first time last week! It was a Wednesday night and it was a packed place! We made a booking earlier.
We went to the back dining area which can accomodate quite a few. Decor and space make up for a great ambience. Food was great with an extensive menu. I accidentally spilled my drink on the table and was given another free of charge which was very kind of them.
Our little one enjoyed the kids menu and overall we had a great time. Staff were very friendly. Great range of cocktails too!
Good local with friendly staff and great steaks! Go for happy hour followed by a meal in the restaurant. Nice selection of beers on tap from Colonial
Had dinner and drinks few months ago. I'm ordered seafood linguine, it tastes ok with many seafood in it but so expensive. The venue was supercool, it has bar, dining area and outdoor seating (also balcony on top). Nice to have drinks, catch up with friends.
Highly recommend this venue for a private function. We held an 18th Birthday upstairs in the Henry Room. Food was great and service was amazing. Our personal function manager on the night looked after us and ensured everything ran smoothly and we always had a drink in our hand. Room has a great vibe and we would style the room how we wanted.
Very trendy gastro pub. Mains were delicious. Dessert was a bit weird, small menu but had an apple crumble but it was definitely a cake. Still good but a tad disappointing. Will be back though for another meal :-)
A secret garden place for the community around. They have really giant space for customers and truly delicious food. My favorites are grilled skull prawns and the roast chicken. Sour, spicy, and salty in one plate. Enjoy the place and don’t forget to order one glass of cocktail.
Arrived at 12.00 & sat in the back dining room. Seemed very quiet. However the place was humming by the time we left. The food was bright & fresh. Hamburgers seemed very popular. Started with the large prawns followed with the Caesar Salad the white anchovies made the meal.
Super aesthetic and vibrant modern pub at the heart of Brighton
Love their cozy ambiance and warm hospitality with delicious menu and beautiful cocktails.

📝: Half Moon, a much-loved local bar and restaurant located on the busy Church St, Brighton. They’ve got a mix of beautiful indoor and outdoor dining area with a delicious seasonal menu made from quality local produce.
❤️: Big shoutout to the 🐟 Barramundi with roasted 🥕 carrot puree, 🎃 pumpkin fondany, and cider beuree blanc. The fish skin was so perfectly crispy and flavorful and the flesh was fresh and tasty 😋. If you love meat, I’d recommend a 🥧 Beef Wellington or a 🥩 fillet of steak from the grill!
After many attempts we were at last able to hold the celebration for my 50th in the delightful Henry Room at Half Moon Brighton. Since my initial inquiry 11 months ago through to the wonderful event, Samantha was a tower of strength and positivity, constantly introducing new ideas and cheering me on to the certainty that the party would go ahead. All guests raved about the room, the balcony, the food and the friendly helpful staff. Anthony was spectacular and made sure the night was everything I could have hoped for and more!
