Award-winning, if you needed an excuse… 🏆

We’re still feeling incredibly proud to have been awarded Best Wine List at this year’s Brighton Restaurant Awards.

Our wine list is something we care deeply about - thoughtfully chosen, constantly evolving and designed to sit beautifully alongside the food.

If you’ve joined us before, you’ll know how much we love helping you find the perfect bottle. And if you haven’t explored it yet… consider this your sign.

Come and see (and taste) for yourself 🍷

Ever fancied having a go at making your own pasta? 🍝

Our next Pasta Workshop is on Thursday 11th June.

Jamie will guide you through making two different types of handmade pasta from scratch. We'll cook one for you to enjoy on the night, and you'll take the other home with one of our pasta kits, complete with sugo and instructions.

There's also bottomless Prosecco throughout the evening, which certainly helps with the pasta making 🍾

They're always such good fun, and with only 14 spaces available, we'd recommend booking sooner rather than later 🤍

Meet Jamie 🤍

Owner of Poco, lover of good wine, good food and very much the heart behind everything we do.

Jamie opened Poco in the centre of Alfriston to share a little of what makes the Mansfield family, the Mansfields - family, food, culture, passion and everything his Nonna stood for.

From the shared tables to the wine list to the recipes passed down through generations, Poco is built around bringing people together over homemade Italian food and beautiful wine.

Jamie’s favourite new dish on the menu right now is our new dessert…

Chocolate Budino, a chocolate mousse surrounded by caramelised bananas, crispy chocolate tuille and covered with passion fruit sauce.

And his pairing? The new dessert wine, of course 🍷

Father's Day is just around the corner 🍻

If you're looking for an excuse to get the family together, we'd love to welcome you to Poco.

Join us on Sunday 21st June and Dad's first drink is on us 🍷

Good food, good wine and everyone gathered around the table.

If you're planning to join us, we'd recommend booking ahead.

We’re very excited about this one

A new dish that’s already getting a lot of love around the tables at Poco…

Stracciatella con Asparagi Grigliati e Mortadella - beautiful stracciatella from La Lataria, served with charred asparagus, mortadella, fresh mint, chilli, pistachio pesto and a slice of freshly baked Poco bread.

Fresh, rich, full of flavour and the sort of dish you find yourself thinking about afterwards.

Our favourite pairing? Chardonnay, Monopolio, Friuli 2022 🍷

If you’re joining us soon, do give this one a try, we’ve got a feeling you’ll like it 🤍

29/05/2026

Sundays are best spent around the table 🍴

Plates set down in the middle, everyone helping themselves, going back for more…

Our roasts are served family-style, just as they should be.

If you’re joining us this weekend, we’d recommend booking ahead.

Meet Jack 👋

Meet another of our wonderful team here at Poco.

Jack is one of the team and a familiar face around the restaurant, part of the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere we like to create for everyone who dines with us.

We asked him what his favourite new dish on the menu is right now, and he chose the Stracciatella con asparagi grigliati e mortadella.

His go-to pairing is a glass of Chardonnay – Sorrell 🍷

Fresh, seasonal and perfectly balanced.

27/05/2026

Another bottle we’ve been really enjoying lately 🍷

Etna Bianco from Federico Curtaz

A beautifully fresh Sicilian white grown on the slopes of Mount Etna.

Bright, mineral and full of delicate citrus and stone fruit notes, with that lovely volcanic freshness running through it.

The sort of wine that pairs perfectly with long lunches, good food and slow afternoons around the table.

25/05/2026

New on the menu…

Capuleti ripieni di spinaci e ricotta.

Handmade parcels from Verona filled with spinach and Sussex ricotta, brought together with sweet English peas, Jersey Royals and a fragrant wild garlic, parsley and thyme butter.

A dish that tastes like the season itself.

Paired with a glass of Chardonnay, The Wrekin, Sorrel (NZ).
