There are two Asda's in Brighton - this review is about the Cafe upstairs in the Marina store.
The only way to do this justice is to visit Tescos in Haywards Heath 1st. Then pop to the Marina for lunch.
Brighton Marina is a newish development on largely reclaimed land at the bottom of the cliffs to the east of Brighton. After a slow start in the last century it is becoming more and more prosperous so the Asda store, which was almost the first business to open there, is becoming more and more incongruous. Rumour has it that they are going to extend it as it is always packed.
The Cafe is upstairs and serves hot food daily. I think the best description of the food is 'school dinners'. They do vegetarian meals and good hot food but the food is often stodgy, soggy and overcooked. If you like chips and pasta then this is the place for you...
Staff seem indifferent. The constant trail of people through the eating area to the toilets is a bit off-putting, not helped by the spartan seating area. I would liken it to a works canteen from the 1970s rather than a Walmart flagship!
There are no free newspapers but people tend to help themselves from the shop downstairs. There is a good view of the car park and the fly-over!
