small museum with a few quite nice objects, yet there are some not really worth being in a museum. Price is o.k.

Small but interesting museum with a childrens section that makes visiting so much fun for them. I use to love the tearooms there but since it has been taken over I won't be using them again.
I went as my grangchild liked the toy section but this wasa typical small town mishmash of bits and pieces. THe cafe was poor - for the second time they were not serving a good variety of fare at noon and I was told I would have to wait to eat anything substantial.
A really interesting mix of stuff, from Egyptian to local Brighton memorabilia. But could be better. kids interested in the BIBA fashion exhibit (£6 adults, kids <16 free). unfortunately all of the screens in the (small) Egyptian exhibit were not working, however what was on display was interesting.
This is a very small museum on a road not far from the seafront.

Any child who loves her books would be thrilled to visit this section of the museum.
The toy exhibits were fascinating & really jolted my memory of toys I once owned in...

A relatively small museum but packed full of fascinating objects. Especially good if you are interested in contemporary design.

But sustainance is on hand with...

Great eclectic montage of bygone times relating t0 this seaside resort. made a rainy day seem so much better. xcellent back up information from an inspired staff!
Not as big as the Brighton art museum, it has less space for exhibits, and they can sometimes seem esoteric. There's a nice history gallery, especially the section on local architecture. The cafe is especially nice, with yummy cakes.
