100% would send a mate.

Right by the fire station on Preston Road/Circus, Rust is a local favourite for brunch, repeatedly cited for the best eggs royale/eggs benedict in Brighton. It's pricier and more gourmet than an old-school greasy spoon, but well regarded, including for vegan options.

What locals say

I love Rust (best eggs royale in Brighton) but their breakfasts are more gourmet/posh. Sometimes, I fancy a dirty brekky from an old-school cafe. Not this one, though, this one looks a bit shite.

Proper old school greasy spoon: ,Breakfast at Tiffany's, North Road. Best eggs benedict in Brighton: cafe rust, preston road (just past the fire station, opposite the big electrical/appliance shop)

I’m vegan too but that looks shite. Cafe rust and starfish are vastly superior…

Rust on Preston Circus is great. Sunbird does a great Mediterranean/Turkish breakfast too if you fancy something different.
