Nice little restaurant where is far more than just a cafe , especially if you are big fan of organic food . Dishes are well prepared with heart, minus a bit slower service. Love it????

Eggs Florentine and pancakes with bacon were stunning! Bustling atmosphere. Great with kids as well

I've come all the way from Thailand to eat at the most famous Bill's of all! Sonia, the Manager, and her staff are simply top notch. You can't go wrong with the "halloumi & humis burger "!

Great food and lovely atmosphere. Always busy so plan for an early but long lunch as you won't want to leave.????

Bob Allen

Rib eye was very good. Lovely place for a meal outdoors, and indoors is very nice ambiance as well .

Neville Denness

The best in Lewes for a takeaway latte and at £1.70 the cheapest. Staff struggle to service when busy which is most of the time. Great place.

Stella K

Loved the place :) Could have bigger portions, but everything was tasty!

Steph Rayner

Great food, great coffee at a great price. Gets busy, but service is great, too.

Emma Karayiannis

If in doubt order Bill's breakfast . Plus the Vegetarian version is equally as good.

What a unique cafe and clientèle - wonderful food and produce and a great place to stop in at all day round - make the effort when in Brighton Read more

Jane Zacharzewski

Overall, lovely food but the "jam roly poly" special turned out to be warm Swiss roll plus custard . Odd.

Christine Fai

Churns out a decent breakfast on Sunday. Service staff are mixed - u need to get their attention.

A fantastic cafe with great atmosphere friendly staff and lively food !! Defo worth many visits !!!!

Phil Kench

Good cream tea - 3 halves of triangular fruit scone , good clotted cream and choice of tea . However, terrible fairy cake - 50% icing and rather little stale cake underneath

Andy Pinker

Nice organic food , but a bit expensive . I went in a busy day and it was quite slow service. However would probably go again

Nick Jones

Service a bit slow, lots of waiting staff hanging around but tables not cleared with any alacrity. You need to make an effort to catch their attention

Tom

Great friendly service . Amazing Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine . Wish there were more than 2x Bill's in Sussex.

Amanda Baldwin @ Talkativeonline

Friendly service , tomatoe & basil soup is amazing and their organic produce to buy the choice is fantastic!

The people who own Bill's are clearly passionate about food. Perfect for organic fruit and vegetables with a good selection of local produce . Read more

Expensive, waitresses have big tits and it's pretentious

Bills hamper - great gift idea.

Jack Monks

Nice sasuage sandwich

Neveah FS

Massively overrated and pretentious . Service always takes ages because it's so full of middle class bores asking for alterations to their orders. No idea how the staff keep smiling!

karen mckenna

Not the coffee ...

Robert Taylor

Go to Bills and buy fresh produce .

Overpriced and over commercial.
