One of the world's most famous members clubs has finally landed in Brighton after much anticipation. Located on Madeira Drive in a prime beach-front location overlooking Brighton pier, Brighton Beach House is the members’ club from Soho House group with spaces to eat, drink and relax, a dipping pool with a terrace looking out to sea, and event spaces.

One of the many reasons we love living in Brighton is 365 days a year holiday vibes. From the beach to the vibrant night life to the colourful cafes and shops, living here sometimes feels like a permanent vacation.

One thing our amazing city was yet to offer is a boujie rooftop pool destination – enter Brighton Beach House. Most definitely bringing the boujie vacay vibes, the new venue is absolutely stunning both inside and out. Think art-deco Miami beach style with retro- plush furniture, plenty of palm trees, sun-loungers and mint-striped awnings. 

Clever decor touches such as scalloped edges of parasols nodding to beach hut architecture, colour schemes mimicking Brighton seafront railings, and a collection of fun quirky artworks by local residents give the venue a whimsical feel.  The two-floor venue somehow still feels very Brighton. 

In fact, the artworks are one of our favourite parts of the venue, especially the David Shrigley banana mosaic on the bottom of the banana shaped dipping pool.

 

Brighton Beach House’s art collection includes ‘The Brighton Beacon Collection’, guest curated by Queer art specialist Gemma Rolls-Bentley. The Beacon collection comprises of work from an international line up of LBGTQIA+ artists and is a love letter to Brighton as a historical beacon city for the queer community. 

And what of the food offering at Brighton Beach House? The good-time holiday vibes continue at Cecconi’s restaurant on the rooftop. 

Serving authentic Venetian-inspired dishes using the finest ingredients, Club Cecconi’s is the UK’s first in-House Cecconi’s restaurant. It features a mix of dining and lounge-style seating, and its regularly rotating menu offers restaurant favourites such as Spaghetti Lobster in a puttanesca sauce, Chicken Milanese, Rigatoni Bolognese, and melt-in-your-mouth Tuna Tartare. 

Founded in 1995 by Nick Jones, Soho House is a home for interesting and diverse people to come together,
share ideas, make connections and foster creativity in all its forms. Today there are members and Houses
around the world, and the first UK Soho House by the sea has been designed as a comfortable home away
from home for Brighton’s thriving creative community.

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.
