The Pond - Brighton

The steamed buns were out of this world. Never had anything like that. The place is always pack so we had to try 2 times to get in. If you're in a group it's best to make a reservation. A little loud (but it's a pub, so not that unexpeted) Amazing place to check out when you're in Brighton.

Vegan loaded fries, panko squash bao, fried tofu bao, corn starters: everything was DELICIOUS. It was my friend's first fully vegan meal ever and he loved everything! The sauces and flavours are really well done. The four dishes I mentioned were a good quanity for two people and reasonably priced. Quite a lot of beers on tap as well.

Despite this not being a fully vegan venue, the vegan options they have on the menu are amazing, the Pond is nearly always full so getting a table here can be difficult however well worth the wait to taste the delights from the BabyBao Kitchen Updated from previous review on 2022-03-13

Wanted to eat at The Pond for ages. Finally made it and wasn’t disappointed!! The mushroom bulgogi bao was super tasty and full of flavour. Both dessert options were vegan and I’d say at least half the menu was vegan. Definitely a must in Brighton!

Great food, Bao Buns the katsu noodle spring rolls are a must try!
