Puzzle Bored is an all-new, innovative concept, a multi-level coffee house, puzzle, and retail space in Brighton. The perfect blend of freshly brewed coffees, herbal teas, jigsaw puzzles, and local artistry is open to the public from Friday, 1st September 2023.
The founders, Denise and Mark, are thrilled to showcase their own line of jigsaw puzzles created by talented local urban artists. The space isn’t just about puzzles though; the second floor will showcase regular exhibitions from the artists who have partnered with Puzzle Bored.
They will also be hosting regular engaging community puzzle evenings and events. The puzzle evenings will be an opportunity to connect with fellow puzzle enthusiasts and make new friends who share your passion. The dates of these events are to follow and will be published on Instagram, on their website, and in the coffee shop.
The dedicated Puzzle Peace Café on the first floor is designed to provide a haven for those seeking reduced sensory input, and it is a place where they will actively discourage the use of tech. Unwind in a soothing environment where you can sip your coffee, dive into a small puzzle, colour, complete some origami, or simply enjoy the low-level chilled music. They have purposefully avoided noisy coffee machines throughout the coffee shop to reduce the noise.
Puzzle Bored isn’t just a place; it’s an experience that nourishes your mind, heart, and soul. Visit them at 27 New Road, Brighton, BN1 1UG, and embark on a journey of creativity, connection, and community.
They are also currently in discussion with a local charity, ADHD Aware, to host both women’s and men’s neurodiverse groups at our premises in the not-so-distant future. They hope to work with other support groups and charities locally.
