Simit Palace — Restaurant in England

I've ordered via Deliveroo. 1st time ordering from Simit Palace. I've ordered the Turkish breakfast, acma, lentil soup, menemen and rice pudding. The Turkish breakfast was missing the boiled egg, the crème cheese, the tea and the sauced chicken, only got the Simit, half of peeled and sliced cucumber, half diced tomato, a handful of olives, the jam, butter, a small loaf of bread, a slice of salami cut in half, some greens, 2 small triangles of cheddar cheese and a chunky piece of feta cheese. (that feta portion was actually of decent size). All these fit in 2 small plastic takeaway containers. Seeing that it costs £11.50, I don't think it's good value for money. Also the lentil soup portion was kind of small, same like the rice pudding (Sutlac) which cost £5.50. I've been ordering from another place Sutlac and it only costs £3.95 and it was a bit bigger than what Simit Palace offers. On a positive note, the Simit, Acma and everything else seemed fresh, and tasted nice as well. But overall, I wouldn't consider reordering again due to the price-to-portion-size they offer and also because of the many forgotten items in the breakfast, as there are other cheaper Turkish restaurants in Brighton that offer better value for money and just as fresh...

I visited this café for the first time this weekend - what an absolute gem.

The moment you step in, you're greeted with a lovely, warm ambience with simplistic, modern/traditional decor to match.

•Food• The food is laid out in the cabinets in front of you - some of which is warmed up for you on your order. They all look delicious, from the potatoe filled pastry to the pistachio and walnut covered baklava - absolutely mouthwatering.

•Coffee• Ultimately, it was the traditional Turkish coffee that we came in search for...and it didn't disappoint. Having a sweet tooth, we ordered the sweet Turkish coffee - they were intensely aromatic and full of body and flavour, so much so, we had seconds.

•Hygiene• Absolutely immaculate - well done.

•Customer Service• The service was slightly slow to start with, but after the initial slow patch, they were fine and asked if the food was good (which isn't the norm for a coffee shop but then that's what you get when you choose to drink and dine at an independent). Friendly and polite at all times.

I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to this place and look forward to many more visits, sipping on my coffee and watching the...

You have to visit this fantastic little Cafė. I came in last week by mistake. I was parked in the free car park of a large chain store opposite because I thought they had a Cafe too. What luck for me they didn't. Just across the road is Simit Palace. I had to change my order to take away but it was the best Coffee I've ever had. No doubt about it. Turkish music playing quietly in the background , the quiet bubble of voices , wonderful choice of cakes, pastries and savouries. Plus really lovely staff. Mo served me today , I only had coffee but I'll be back for Simit next time. Its called Turkish Bagel in the US , looks savoury, crispy, and delicious. There is plenty of choice , try Menemen a type of scrambled egg with tomatoes and seasoning. If that is not enough then sit in the front window and ' people watch '. Watch cyclists dicing with Buses and Taxis . It's got it all but it's the coffee that makes it so good. You can but it here too . It is situated close to the bus route and town centre , a short walk to the trains and seafront , so no excuses...
