please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Long been one of the better pubs of Brighton, before all the trendy Londoners started moving down this was the kind of place that helped Brighton build a reputation for being the place to be. Not sure if that means I should like it or not though!

Never eaten here but seems friendly enough. Cant stand sofas in pubs, there for falling asleep on in front of the telly when you get back from the pub not for drinking on.This is the sort of place I would go to for a pint not an evening.

I've never been particularly enamoured of this place, which is mre of a bar than a pub, but it's light and airy layout, decent(ish) beers and apparently good food kept it there or thereabouts as a potential watering hole. However, that tell tale sign of a dodgy spot (security on the door) really chimed in the other week.

We were in a part if six, sqeezed in on a sofa, and an officious little bloke with a badge was relentlessly rude and agressive in tell one of our party not to put her feet on the seats. What should have been a friendly evening spiralled horribly because of what looked to be a first time bouncer getting a bit badge happy.

The trouble ended up following us outside, which wasn't great, and has put me off going near here anytime soon.

The food here is absolutely exquisite. There is usually an authentic Indian dish on the menu at all times, and on 30/05/05 I had a [very reasonably priced] chicken mint korma washed down with an excellent pint of Deuchars IPA. The staff are very friendly here, also there's a pleasant beerb garden.

I was attracted to the pub by the menu initially (having began a crawl in the Hand in Hand up the road) and was pleasantly surprised.

It is a good pub to include in a crawl in the area. Worthy of a good 9/10.
