Pelicano - Brighton and Hove

This charming cafe has fantastic coffee and delicious food! We ordered the white and lemon drop cakes. I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion of cake – not sure if that's the norm or if the barista just felt extra generous. Either way, I was delighted!

This charming café offers delicious drinks, cakes, and has a welcoming staff.

This charming restaurant has incredible coffee and delicious treats! We ordered oat flat whites and a slice of lemon drizzle cake. I'm not sure if the cake is always this generous in size or if the barista was just being extra kind, but either way, I was thrilled.

Had a walk around the lanes decided to have a coffee because the Pelicano do a slow Brew the one were it's filtered through the paper they keep pouring hot water through the paper I can appreciate they are busy but waited about 15 minutes for one coffee at £3.60 each so waited outside for a bit then came back into the shop one of the girls behind the counter said sorry its not ready yet she said do you want to wait outside in the Sun

In these strapped for cash times a cafe break has to be considered and is fairly rare for me now. I personally want a little oasis in my day, away from work. The customers were all on laptops or having quiet conversations, the staff and friends however were so loud the whole cafe was dominated by their noise for most of the time I was there. Luckily I carry ear plugs, but even that couldn’t drown them out. The coffee was not very good and the cake stale and left a nasty taste in the mouth. Much like the whole experience.
