First time at Tivoli cafe and will definitely be back. The food was delicious and lots of choice. All home cooked to perfection. Staff were very friendly. The Baklava was so good I took some home too! Will definitely be returning.

We had a wonderful experience here, delicious fresh food. Delicious seasoning and great to try a different twist with the Greek breakfast. My kids loved their lasagna & omelette both said it was delicious. The staff were really friendly. This restraunt is a wonderful asset to the area and I can’t recommend it enough, great freshly prepared food at really reasonable prices.

I love this cafe, the food is incredible, lots of homemade goods! The staff are so friendly, everyone who works in this cafe is always so pleasant with lovely service. They went the extra mile today by finding candles and putting them in a homemade biscoff cheesecake (highly recommend) and playing happy birthday music for my partner. I cannot recommend this cafe enough, so lucky it’s our local!

I travelled down from Manchester on business and happened to come across this beautiful authentic cafe. It has the wow factor from the second you lay eyes on it outside, but when you walk in you feel like you have been transported and your no longer in the uk the whole vibe, decoration and music takes you away to somewhere that feels special. All organic foods and supplements available to purchase to take home. The food is all home made and 5* delicious and the drinks are also fresh and beautiful. Cater to all dietary requirements and the service is outstanding. Highly recommend if you come to Brighton you visit this place you don’t know what you’re missing!!

A very sumptuous vegetarian omelette with chips. Full of fresh veggies and a lovely texture. A hearty, meat-free bite full of flavor. This is my new favourite dish.

Had the English breakfast at Tivoli’s and it was incredible - everything cooked to perfection and seasoned in a way that feels almost signature to them. Smoothies unreal too. This was my fourth time coming here and somehow it just gets better every time. The food, the vibe inside, friendly service - a Brighton gem!!
