Shopping in the North Laine area Brighton

Between the Royal Pavilion and Queen's Road, the North Laine is a lively mix of shops, cafés, pubs and theatres where you'll find the largest number of Brighton's unique, original places.

Originally an area of small farming plots and a market garden, it's now the heart of independent Brighton retail. Food lovers can find a huge choice, from long-established places like Infinity Foods and the wonderful Yum Yum to newcomers like the Brighton Sausage Co. and Iydea.

There's plenty of choice for homes and gardens too. Listed shops are all run locally by owners so you can be pretty sure that the items have been sourced with an eye for the original and unusual, such as InHouse Space's unique collection of Tasmanian oak furniture made from sustainable forests.

As well as the listed businesses you'll find theatres, the fabulous Jubilee Library and much more in this, the heart of independent Brighton.
