Review Dendy Deli - Brighton

Food was edible but wasn’t amazing, huge menu with loads to choose from though. Waiter looked like he hated working there. Cannelloni was pretty plain, could be seasoned better and the bolognese sauce tasted like it came straight out the jar. Salad wasn’t fresh, some of the leaves were wilted and yellow. French toast was alright, pretty basic. 📸 Cannelloni with Salad, French Toast with Eggs

I went there with friends and I ordered the seafood risoto and a juice. The seafood was not fresh and they brought me the wrong juice. Food took ages to get ready and the staff couldn’t care less about the mistake and they were quite unkind people. They swapped my juice to the “right one” and brought an orange juice completely different than the one my friend received, mine was full of the things that usually stays in the strainer from the orange. It looked like they had strained the orange, and instead of giving me the juice from it, they gave me the left overs that stays on top of the strainer - where my friends one was clear liquid juice - only had a tiny steam left on her cup - photos attached, but it’s not as visible as in person. I commented about it to the lady that works there and she couldn’t care less, she said “they were too busy”. At the end of the meal, when we payed the bill, they charged 20 dollars extra and we just noticed when we left the place.

Coffee and Cake always a nice treat this place is a must experience it’s always been here for many many years open late. Right on the main Brighton street

It’s my local place for coffee, fresh and yummy food, a friendly smiling face and chat 🥗🥙🥪🫔🌯🍔🍰🫖☕️ So grateful 😇 it’s our local

1980s decor. Some of the food is pretty good. The service is pretty bad. I go there frequently because my mum likes it and they always treat us with total indifference; it’s pretty hard to get their attention. Our “waiter” was very abrupt today. I made the mistake of asking to move to a quieter area because mum is hard of hearing and our “waiter” raised her voice and telling me that section was closed turning her back to me and walked away dismissing me. I was polite and there had been people sitting in the area which I requested. A pity they don’t care about their frail, elderly customers more.

So disappointed. Been going here for 30+yrs and clearly it’s changed ownership recently. Nachos was a mass of chips with cold congealing cheese in the centre accompanied by three small pots that had spent a long time in the fridge containing solidified cream cheese, discoloured, solid avocado and some kind of tomato paste. Chips of ice in a flat coke with a hint of bourbon tasted watery. Chicken Parma plonked on a plate with a tiny bowl of chips on the side. No veg, salad or garnish. Very unappetising. Milkshake very average. Presentation is everything. You eat with your eyes first. Get an actual chef. Prices haven’t changed but the quality has really gone downhill. Locals want you to succeed. Please put in some effort. The service staff were nice, the food is letting you down.

Great! Been here quite a few times now and would have to say I personally enjoy the coffee! Their simple iced latte was spot on, just a latte and ice which is what I want, nothing fancy 👌 Loved the tiramisu and wedges. The cafe reminds be of early 2000s cafe/diner kind of place. Reasonably priced. The cakes come in big portions and best to share I'd say! Service was good, sometimes a bit slow during busier periods. The barista who we always had when we ordered coffee was friendly.

Delicious food! Great prices and big servings. Had to wait a bit to get staff to take plates but overall happy with the service.
