| This pub is a Brighton Classic! I had reservations when Fullers took over the Gales Brewery but they have sensibly left the pub alone, and it still retains all its character. A full Fullers range of beers is complimented by a Gales Beer and a guest, I didn't eat here on this occasion but have done in the past and its that rare thing these days, good quality proper pub grub, not brake Brothers microwaved pap.

| Seems to have some history to it, if even just for the myriad of bric-a-brac nailed to the walls. Did seem to be a bit of a tourist attraction though on my visit which I suppose is not surprising given it's location. Service was friendly and efficient. Just Butcome Bitter on offer outside of the Fullers stable. Millay - 12 Jun 2009 07:57 |
| On Saturday 23rd I paid my first visit since Fullers took control of this pub. Apart from beer range this pub was exactly how I left it over 5 years ago. Every little matchbox, tin can and cigarette card remains intact and in place, and I was served a superb pint of Elgoods "Cambridge" (3.8%) by a friendly guy behind the bar. As it was decent weather outside the pub people weren't just stepping out for a smoke, most of them had pints [of ale] in hand and were engaged in conversation. At this stage of my crawl I was on my own but was soon in conversation with fellow drinkers at the bar. A really excellent pub. lad_newton - 29 May 2009 00:21 |
| really enjoyed myself: had a vegetarian burger with chips and 2 pints of Gales' Seafarers Ale. Smashing pub in a nice part of Brighton. malo66 - 28 May 2009 18:37 |
