Cafe at igigi General Store Brighton

Although this was a little bit further along western road than I would usually walk in my usual 1 hour lunch break, I can certainly say it was worth it, I only wish I had a little longer to take everything in, in what I can only describe as a Provencal oasis.

Barcombe Nurseries Veg – Brighton
