The Metropole Bar is attached to the Hilton Brighton Metropole, a hotel from which the bar takes its name. The building itself is a landmark, designed by the famous Alfred Waterhouse and featured in T.S Eliot’s The Wasteland. For sure, it’s a hotel worth staying in, and if you are staying here, there’s no excuses not to visit the bar downstairs, if not, then why not?
Known for its bottomless brunches, the Metropole Bar offers 90 minutes of free-flowing prosecco and a brunch meal included in the price. This includes a build your own pancake stack, a full English breakfast, or a choice of omelettes as three examples. Or perhaps eggs benedict, luxurious and creamy, or an avocado smash to give a sunny start to the day. Even a ‘guilty pleasure’ like sticky toffee pudding, honey-soaked pineapple, or a chocolate brownie. This really is an indulgent start to the day.
The bar isn’t only suited for an adult audience, its friendly atmosphere provides a suitable environment for children, who can select from a dedicated children’s menu. This allows families to enjoy a pleasant meal with no worries on how their little ones will cope with tackling a meal designed for adult tastes, appetites, and preferences.
The bar staff are experts at cocktails, offering a unique take on an Old-Fashioned cocktail called Message in a Bottle, where you crack open an ice ball with a small hammer. Classic cocktail options that require less manual labour to drink are also available. This expertise is put to good use in inspiring the Bartenders Afternoon Tea, where you’re served an afternoon tea that includes both sweet and savoury options, all inspired by classic cocktails designed to relax and put you at ease. Why not enjoy a bit of modern history yourself at the Metropole Bar?
