| Don't go here if you don't like sports, sticky floors or plastic glasses. If you do it's great. Staff are good considering. robamy - 3 Dec 2009 15:50 |
| Walkabout Brighton has been bought by Cavendish Bars and will soon close. it will no longer be Walkabout but likely to be rebranded as Wahoo. So far the Walkabouts in Southampton, Oldham and Putney have been converted. From the look of their website the brand is a an American version of Walkabout, complete with buckets of buffalo wings and grilled food. this will be interesting. Farewell to Walkabout Brighton.

| Walkabout is by far one of the best bars in Brighton. Cheap drinks and deals throughout the week, great music from 2 of the best dj's and friendly staff, what more could you ask for. It's not that glamorous inside but who cares when you've had a few too many to drink!! 10/10 from me :) MissW - 31 Aug 2009 14:20 |
| Considering what a great city Brighton is and it has so much to offer this venue is irrelevant. There is so many better places to go in Brighton you are very spoilt for choice. Being in this Walkabout you may as well be sitting in Croydon, Bromley, Wimbledon or Centreal London. so don't bother. it's full of the usual heavy handed bouncers, threatening blokes and vulnerable girls. if you are visiting Brighton, visit for what it has to offer. you will be pleasantly surprised. there is no need to go to a clone Australian bar. Some Australian who live and work in Sydney think they are horrendous places. TheDaleks - 14 Sep 2008 14:21 |
| I have read through some of these comments and it seems some people have suggested things rather than given actual fact. So here is the honesty. The reason Walkabout and all venues over a 600 capacity serve in plastics is down to local police licensing asking them to do so. There is police presence in west street but this is not for any place in perticular. Its for public safety and to control the many people coming out of this congested area. As im sure you can appreciate there are many clubs and bars in west street. No its not the ritz and yes its a loud party bar thats open till 3am but it also has live music, and sport, plus DJ's and drinks deals. So all in all its not a bad venue to go to and rarely has trouble, as per the award for best bar from sussex police shows above the door as you walk in. Reviewers so not suggest things, but rather review them. As far as i see the walkabout, its loud, its fun, theres a good atmosphere and its cheaper than many over late night places. deejay - 18 Aug 2008 05:46 |
