The Freemasons Tavern, Hove

Have to disagree with the poor reviews - it is busy on Friday and Saturday nights, so best to get there early if you want a seat for the evening.

Music is good and the service generally OK given how busy it can get. Spent New Year's Eve 2006 there and we had a great time!

The Sunday roast is excellent value and (Veggie)recommended, though I was a tad dissapointed with the Valentine's Day meal we had back in 2005 - maybe that since has improved.

The Brunswick, Hove

A big pub - the refurb now includes a stage for live acts and has a large garden patio area out the back.

Was a tad cold though even with the roaring large fire!!!

Food took a while to be served when it wasn't busy during the week, however, the staff were very smiley and polite so that compensated and the Ploughmans was good!

The Blind Busker, Hove

The name change (in reference to a local busker)included a total refurb, stripped floorboards and new decor.

Very popular in the summer as the pub has a patio overlooking Church Road which catches the afternoon/evening sun, though plastic glasses are only allowed outside!!
