Customer Review Summary
Brunch draws the most mentions, with reviewers praising the smashed avocado with poached egg on flat bread, a sausage called perfect, and the Byron Bay Brunch. Close behind is the staff, described as kind, lovely and helpful, with one reviewer saying they never felt rushed or overlooked. One diner singles out the tapas and the dan dan noodles, while others mention the vegan options, the fun decor, an efficient ordering process and a place that is always clean. Parents describe a baby friendly space with a spacious changing room that fits a whole pram, and a good spot for mums and babies to meet. The one complaint concerns a single dish: a reviewer found the bacon cheeseburger lacking in cheesiness and meatiness, with tiny fries and a mini serving of slaw, and left still hungry. Another reviewer noticed staff consistently asking guests about food allergies, and one pair of staff asked to photograph a customer's dog passport for their socials.

“Alcampo Lounge on Church Road in Hove is such a great place! The tapas selection is fantastic, and the dan dan noodles was absolutely amazing. A special mention to Yasper, who is a real asset to the restaurant. His customer service, kindness, and genuine care for customers really stand out. He made our experience even more enjoyable. Hats off to you, my friend. You’re amazing! 👏😊”

“This has been my favourite place to meet my friend and her dog, Sandy. The team and the manager are so lovely, and they create such a caring atmosphere. We have been going there for years, and they have always made us feel so welcome. Yesterday they were especially kind to us, and I just wanted to say thank you. They really are genuinely lovely people. The coffee and food are great, and the place is always clean with great decor. Praise to the team—they make the world a better place, and I always leave feeling happy.”

“More stickers for our passports. The staff, Kimmy and Joe were great and they loved Bruno's doggy passport; even asking if they could take a photo of it to use on their socials. I tried the Byron Bay Brunch for the 1st time and can highly recommend it.”
