One of the world's most famous members clubs has finally landed in Brighton after much anticipation. Located on Madeira Drive in a prime beach-front location overlooking Brighton pier, Brighton Beach House is the members’ club from Soho House group with spaces to eat, drink and relax, a dipping pool with a terrace looking out to sea, and event spaces.
One of the many reasons we love living in Brighton is 365 days a year holiday vibes. From the beach to the vibrant night life to the colourful cafes and shops, living here sometimes feels like a permanent vacation.
One thing our amazing city was yet to offer is a boujie rooftop pool destination – enter Brighton Beach House. Most definitely bringing the boujie vacay vibes, the new venue is absolutely stunning both inside and out. Think art-deco Miami beach style with retro- plush furniture, plenty of palm trees, sun-loungers and mint-striped awnings.
Clever decor touches such as scalloped edges of parasols nodding to beach hut architecture, colour schemes mimicking Brighton seafront railings, and a collection of fun quirky artworks by local residents give the venue a whimsical feel. The two-floor venue somehow still feels very Brighton.
In fact, the artworks are one of our favourite parts of the venue, especially the David Shrigley banana mosaic on the bottom of the banana shaped dipping pool.
Brighton Beach House’s art collection includes ‘The Brighton Beacon Collection’, guest curated by Queer art specialist Gemma Rolls-Bentley. The Beacon collection comprises of work from an international line up of LBGTQIA+ artists and is a love letter to Brighton as a historical beacon city for the queer community.
And what of the food offering at Brighton Beach House? The good-time holiday vibes continue at Cecconi’s restaurant on the rooftop.
Serving authentic Venetian-inspired dishes using the finest ingredients, Club Cecconi’s is the UK’s first in-House Cecconi’s restaurant. It features a mix of dining and lounge-style seating, and its regularly rotating menu offers restaurant favourites such as Spaghetti Lobster in a puttanesca sauce, Chicken Milanese, Rigatoni Bolognese, and melt-in-your-mouth Tuna Tartare.
Founded in 1995 by Nick Jones, Soho House is a home for interesting and diverse people to come together,
share ideas, make connections and foster creativity in all its forms. Today there are members and Houses
around the world, and the first UK Soho House by the sea has been designed as a comfortable home away
from home for Brighton’s thriving creative community.
