7. Pier Brasserie
Pier Brasserie opened at Newhaven Harbour just before the pandemic, and this week was hit by more misfortune when the flooding led to a roof collapse. But its customers rave about the place - giving it 4.7 out of 64 reviews - so no doubt when it reopens it will be full once more. Photo: Pier Brasserie
