Worth toiling up the hill for the view. Beer was very good. It was very quiet when we turned up so no problems with service. The 'beer garden' is pretty spartan: the pub owner could make a lot more of this given the sea views. And I was alarmed at the outside electric heater being so close to the uPVC bathroom window. This had a bad scorch mark on it. Surely the heater could be moved or disconnected (maybe it has been - let's hope so). Hope the place is still there next year and not a smoking ruin!

Go here a lot as my girlfriend lives on same road. Had a face lift and well needed, staff are brilliant and very helpfull and chatty. Not had a meal in a while but went i did was excellent and good value. Best view from a pub in the city and good stone throw from town, infact lots of sea in the view.

i visited the setting sun on thurs 13th march, i found the staff very slow and unhelpful on some occasions. the meal although sufficient was very unpleasant so on te whole i did not have good visit.

The view does include the sea! and lots of it.
new owners very keen to win back customers. Very good food.
Bar service is slow (they seem to be new to the pub game)-but then behind the bar there is only room for one!
If they can get that sorted- they're onto a winner.

This used to be my upmost favorite pub in Brighton, then it seemed to become run down. However-great news! It seems to be have taken over by new "loving" owners with a new food menu....just in time for the summer! Welcome back
