Welcome to the official profile for the North Laines in Brighton. With this profile you can find out all the ins and outs of the North Laines trading hours and nightlife activities...

Today North Laine is a bohemian shopping area popular both with locals and tourists, well served with cafés such as GBK, bars such as popular electronic music venue Riki Tik and entertainment venues including theatres such as Komedia. The first branch of Anita Roddick's Body Shop, later to become a multinational business, was opened at 22 Kensington Gardens. Typical retailers include art, antiques, architectural salvage, second-hand books, CDs, "retro" clothing, graphic novels, musical instruments and new age paraphernalia. There is a high turnover of boutique-style shops in North Laine in general.

One of the less shopping-oriented streets, Upper Gardner Street, is closed every Saturday for an on-street market. Amongst the houses of this street are several antiques dealers.
