Step into a serene retreat at Queens Park Cafe, a delightful cafe nestled within the picturesque surroundings of Queens Park in Brighton and Hove. This charming establishment is a true oasis for those seeking a peaceful escape while indulging in some of the finest comforting treats.

The cafe features a menu that captures the essence of classic British cafe fare, boasting a selection of freshly prepared sandwiches and an array of delectable home-made cakes. Whether you're craving the sweet notes of a Strawberry ice cream or the rich depths of an Espresso, there's something to satisfy every palate. For those who appreciate a great cuppa, don't miss their Cappuccino or Mocha, ideally enjoyed while soaking up the warm sunshine in the park. And for little ones, a Babycino makes an adorable treat!

Customers rave about the inviting atmosphere and the attentiveness of the staff. As Leux Durant highlights, Queens Park is not only a lovely spot to unwind, but the coffee shop inside, complemented by its polite service, truly enhances the experience. Similarly, Dig Dug describes this cafe as a ‘lovely oasis,’ perfect for enjoying a slice of cake and a drink while immersed in nature.

The cafe is elaborately set to cater to both the busy passerby and those looking to linger a little longer. Imagine sipping your Latte or enjoying a simple yet satisfying Cheese sandwich, with the sounds of children playing nearby and the gentle rustle of leaves. Andrew was pleased to discover that the cafe is open past 4 PM on Sundays, making it the perfect stop for an afternoon tea and a slice of cake—the ultimate wind-down after a week in the hustle and bustle.

While the cafe may cater to a variety of tastes, it has not gone unnoticed that gluten-free options may be limited, as noted by Liz Brammall. Nevertheless, fans of traditional refreshments will find delight in how the cafe strikes the right balance between simple, wholesome food and an atmosphere that invites relaxation.

Queens Park Cafe is about more than just food and drinks; it’s a community space filled with charm and character. As Lara Downard shares, with lovely sandwiches and friendly service from Ivan, this cafe has managed to capture the hearts of many. And for the nature lovers, bring along some birdseed as suggested by Red Tigerlily; the local pigeons and swans certainly add to the charm of this unique setting.

So, whether you're looking for a quick coffee break, a leisurely afternoon with friends, or a place to take in the serene beauty of Queens Park, the Queens Park Cafe is the perfect destination. Stop by, sit back, and enjoy the sweet moments this charming cafe has to offer!

It's a very nice and quiet park with plenty of benches to chill on, and a playground for kids. Nice coffee shop located inside too, with polite staff and great tasting stuff. Good location

Queens Park is a great location and this little oasis fits beautifully, lovely cakes, sandwiches and a very good Cappuccino. Sit in the sunshine and enjoy a bit of secluded England.
