Edible Updates<br />

A couple of promising<br />

changes to the food<br />

landscape: a new Turkish<br />

coffee shop is opening<br />

on Station Street, and<br />

Trading Post Coffee<br />

are opening in what<br />

was the Real Eating Co<br />

premises. Word is the Brighton<br />

branch serves good vegan options and their onsite<br />

roaster will add to their appeal.<br />

Back Yard Coffee at the Needlemakers<br />

convert their operation into a cocktail bar on<br />

Friday and Saturday evenings, serving drinks<br />

with ‘foraged ingredients’ to live jazz and DJs.<br />

Excitingly, Pestle & Mortar are growing their<br />

Asian whole-foods grocery offering with a<br />

noodle bar and cafe in what was Laporte’s on<br />

Friars Walk.<br />

The <strong>Lewes</strong> Arms has had a thorough kitchen<br />

refresh and now offers ‘small plates’ and mains<br />

including a signature pulled pork burger. Mitch<br />

from the John Harvey Tavern has taken over<br />

the Royal Oak and revamped the interior and<br />

drinks list to include Ground coffee.<br />

As the weather warms, look out for a new<br />

horsebox café at <strong>Lewes</strong> Vintage Market on<br />

Sundays. It could be a good year for mobile<br />

grocers with Charlotte’s Cupboard (see pg<br />

83) pitching at Harvey’s Yard on Fridays and<br />

The Sussex Peasant up for a BBC Food &<br />

Farming Award.<br />

In other news, Cashew Catering host a<br />

‘Spring Feast’ workshop on 10th; Kabak,<br />

a Middle Eastern Supper Club on the 24th<br />

(kabakfood.wixsite.com) and The Feature<br />

Kitchen are collaborating with Chloe Edwards<br />

(thefeaturekitchen.co.uk, see pg 72).<br />

Bonus: Proud Country House in Falmer now<br />

have a supervised ‘Kids Table’ on Saturdays, offering<br />

parents the possibility of an uninterrupted<br />

lunch; and Limetree Kitchen are offering<br />

bottomless prosecco on Sunday lunchtimes and<br />

Wednesday evenings. Hic! Chloë King<br />
