Brighton

Pick up hotel bread for breakfast and thinly sliced rusks for a snack. At Brighton, you can browse for both a loaf to keep on the table and something to enjoy by the piece. Some reviewers remember the hotel bread for its fine crumb and good bake, and say they make it, along with the rolls, a breakfast staple. The rusks are sliced to about 6 millimetres thick and, according to one account, lightly seasoned. They could suit you if you want to enjoy the texture of the bread or are looking for a snack that is not too sweet.

Among the sweet buns, some reviewers single out the cream bun as a favourite. For something a little different, there is also a bun reminiscent of strawberry daifuku. It was described as a yomogi bun filled with cream, strawberry and chunky red bean paste, with mochi on top.

One reviewer found the bread pleasantly chewy overall, and the selection ranges from savoury bread to sweet buns. Takeaway is available, making Brighton an option when you are shopping for breakfast or a treat to enjoy at home.
