Constantinople is an independent, family-run bistro at 51 Norfolk Square in Brighton. The Galip family draws on its roots in eastern Turkey and years of restaurant experience in Istanbul to offer a relaxed dining experience close to the seafront.

The food brings together influences from the Middle East, the Balkans, Greece, the Caucasus and central Anatolia. Traditional mezze and small plates make sharing a natural way to begin, with vegetables, cheeses, dips and other savoury dishes providing a varied introduction.

Main courses and grilled dishes continue the Mediterranean and Anatolian theme, with fresh ingredients used throughout the selection. Salads and vegetarian plates sit alongside meat choices, while baklava, revani and Turkish pumpkin dessert offer distinctive ways to finish.

A three-course menu can provide a structured route through mezze, an entrée and a main dish, while the intimate dining room suits both everyday meals and occasions. Guests with allergies or dietary needs should speak to staff about current recipes before ordering.

Address: 51 Norfolk Square, Brighton BN1 2PA, England
