The location
If you’re visiting Brighton for the day you might need to whip out google maps to find Coppa Club Brighton. Located in Brighton Square within the heart of the Iconique Brighton Lanes, it’s pretty tucked away from the main bustling streets. A bit of a hidden gem you might say.
The vibe
It’s sister branches are dotted across London, and as soon as you walk in, the brand has a bit of a London hotel or private members’ club feel (think Hoxton Hotel) – without any members club fees, and with a more relaxed vibe, win-win. Coppa Club is huge inside, and actively welcomes laptop users, so there’s none of the ‘feeling awkward and like you need to keep buying 10,000 things’ that you sometimes get when you sit in smaller cafes.
The decor is gorgeous and bright with lots of seating areas to choose from, cosy booths to hunker down in, and armchairs by the fire for the ultimate cosy winter bouji working day. They also have a pretty outdoors seating area with pop-up igloos spaces available to hire.
Because it’s so spacious, it’s nice and quiet during the daytimes to work from. Evenings get busier with people coming in for cocktails and food.
The food & drink
The European menu is split into pizzas, pastas, small plates, salads and grills. We loved the Burrata, Crab Linguine and Chicken Caesar Salad – classic dishes cooked well. Main course range from about £10 to £25 so it might not be an every-day working destination, but great for a treat-yourself day or fantastic for a lunch meeting.
Importantly – the coffees are good,
The plug socket/Wifi situation
The venue has been built with co-working in mind, so there are helpful plug sockets EVERYWHERE. Wifi was also super-fast and easy to access.
The verdict
Fast becoming our go-to spot for lunch meetings and cosy work-days, Coppa Club is the perfect Brighton destination for working from.
