Smorl’s Houmous Falafel & Salad Bar

Smorl’s Houmous Falafel & Salad Bar is one of our favourite vegan finds in the city. One minute you’re perusing the stalls at Brighton’s Open Market and then BOOM! There it is, tucked away inside – a new favourite spot for healthy eats with an understated vibe that we can’t get enough of.

The Kitchen

Sharing responsibility on the kitchen are siblings Christian and Sarah who own Smorl’s Kitchen together. They greet all customers cheerfully which makes every person feel special including me!

Smorl’s is pretty darn good. If you’re looking for a new place to eat in the area, then Smorls should be on your list of places to go!

“Ways of spelling houmous…

Houmous, hummus, humus, hommus, hommos and Smorl’s.”

Our Vegan Food Experience

The experience of trying new food is always exciting, especially with my friends! I loved the falafel and bolognese. We even tried curry rice for the first time! The salad was so nice because it had lots of different flavours; refreshing to eat!

A meatless bolognese? You read that right: the dish contains delicious Moroccan style spices like cinnamon, turmeric, cumin as well as smoked paprika to give this flavorful vegetarian sauce its deep flavour without any animal protein whatsoever. And, I can still taste the flavours of all those delicious dips! The houmous was my favourite by far. There are three different levels to choose from – thunder being the spiciest and original as mildest. It’s such a perfect snack for sharing with friends or just munching alone!

It’s unreal how good vegan dishes are. With so many beautiful colours and flavours, it makes everything come together wonderfully. If you share them with your friends or take them home in a box, it’s great. You’ll want some of these for later, too.

When you’re looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle of work, Smorl’s is there for you. Open from 10-4 Monday – Saturday, and 10-3 on Sunday, this café promises an enjoyable experience with its affordable vegan menu featuring dishes that will leave your taste buds wanting more!
