| Went down to Brighton on the weekend and decided to try and grab a beer. Foudn the place just outside the Lanes in Brighton. This place confuses me. Aesthetically, the place is reasonably pleasing and looks like a nice old boozer. No Harveys (why don't you ever have this, Sussex pubs?) so went for Broadside. Poor move, poor off beer and terible staff who ddin't know or care either way about such things. The evidence is clear here that this pub could be good. It ahs the feel of a nice pub, and yet insists on filling its lines with Heineken Export. Even the people inside are a confused mix of young and old not sure whether they're too cool for the pub, or whether it's their spiritual home. All I can say is decide what this pub is about, get some decent staff who not only pay attention but are also in some way knowledgable about beer generally and even cleaning and running a pub, and who knows, you may get a higher grading than what I've given? A missed opportunity. rampantwurzel - 7 Apr 2008 15:30 |
| My friends and i went there last saturday. we had such a good time. The food was great (thai mussel)and we received a really good table service (polish girl). We end up staying all night! Brilliant! rockie - 19 Mar 2007 18:13 |
| We visited the Black Lion for sunday lunch yesterday my wife and I as I heard their food is brilliant, unfortunately, we had to wait more than 20 minutes to order, and half an hour to get our table cleared after we finished, it just seems they're is only one member of staff for the whole place ( french and quite rude.... :-( )....... Will give it a 5 out of 10, one of the best sunday roast in Brighton, but probably the worst service.... Shame LeonardoM - 22 Jan 2007 12:52 |
| Jaysus - one of the worst pubs in Brighton. Avoid it like the plague unless you are a casual who enjoys the odd spot of agro. hello_dave - 7 Jan 2007 21:48 |
| An ok pub. A little bit agro on the weekends and not a great atmosphere. The beer 'garden' is like having a pint in an alleyway behind a woolworths. Crizqo - 29 Dec 2006 15:25 |
