The Chequers - Preston Street, Brighton

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Have a little walk down Preston street and you’ll find this pub amongst the thousands of restaurants, which is ideal if you leave the pub a little hungry

The Duke of Norfolk - Western Road, Brighton

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

Situated just up the road from the Robin Hood you’ll find the Duke of Norfolk. A fair sized establishment with a number of good points.

The Lion & Lobster - Sillwood Street, Brighton

Tuesday, March 13th, 2007

This is another little pub tucked out of the way, a hundred yards south of Western Road. Even so, this is a popular boozer, with a good amount of regulars propping-up the bar.

The Robin Hood – Cross Street, Brighton

Monday, March 5th, 2007

This is one of those pubs you’d only find if you were on a little bit of an exploration of the area, it’s a case of being hidden in plain view; being fifty metres away from the main road.
 

The Prince Arthur - Dean Street - Brighton

Tuesday, September 12th, 2006

10 meters from Western road - but a world away!
The Prince Arthur, not to be confused with the Prince Albert (The person, piercing or pub) is a great little boozer! Why? I’m not sure that I can sum it up in words, its just a nice little pub to have a few beers in.

Pull & Pump - Clarence Gdns - Brighton

The Windmill - Upper North Street - Brighton

Thursday, September 7th, 2006

The Windmill
Is about 100 meters away from the Hampton, so why should you pick this pub? They both offer a good range of drinks, have free internet access (802.11) and serve food. There is definitely a different atmosphere in the Windmill, is is better or worse? Read on. . .

The Shakespeare’s Head - New England Road - Hove

Wednesday, September 6th, 2006

Best sausages Baird none!
Do you like sausage and mash? Yes? This may be the pub for you, if that hunger monster has struck. You’ll find this pub on New England Road (just before you get to seven dials) and it’s provided a welcome respite from the slog of walking up this road. Of course if [...]

The Prince Albert - Trafalgar Street - Brighton

Sunday, August 27th, 2006

If this pub is good enough for Shane MacGowan and Nick Cave to have a few pints whilst going Dutch on prawn cocktail* crisps, then it’s good enough for the rest of you ingrates!

The Cobblers Thumb - New England Road - Brighton

Thursday, August 17th, 2006

Located on the corner of New England Road/Street, which isn’t the nicest place in Brighton, this pub looks pretty rough from the outside (a little like the Hobgoblin) but then at least it fits in with the surroundings. Thankfully this establishment is nothing like that urine soaked hell-hole. OK, that’s not really saying much I [...]
