Purchases Restaurant, run by the Sussex Food Company, has taken over 31 North Street in the place of Amelie and Friends, which closed ‘due to Brexit’ earlier this year.
The ‘modern European style’ menu will be available from 11.30am seven days a week, with a bar boasting fine wines by the glass open until 11pm Monday to Saturday.

“It’s beautiful in there. We’ve definitely created a warmth,” he said.
“We’ve had a few friends and family in, sometimes it hasn’t been all friends or family, but it’s still had a fantastic soul to the restaurant, it’s had a real buzz, so we’re really looking forward to filling it up over the weekends and over the years.”
Among the team is head chef Craig Mustard, who Danny described as a ‘rising star’.
