Worst Boozer in Sussex

Scampi, I salute you on your vividly accurate description of Crawley boozers.

I wanted to nominate at least one of them myself but thankfully never having spent too long in any of them I felt it would be unfair of me to pass comment without enough experience.

One hole you have neglected to mention which I feel certainly is worthy of damning is the Snooty Fox in Three Bridges. That place oozes shittyness and is lucky it sits on the part of the road where the traffic lights control the flow of speeding traffic otherwise I can see many a miserable patron deliberately stepping out into the road after a soul destroying half hour in that place looking for a quick and inglorious end.

Is that what was the Ugly Duckling and then the Wivelsfield?

You haven't got a clue.

The Rocket is not to bad but i can see why you have said it.
Dorsten shut down

Winner is the imperial in Broadfield.

Not that bad? it makes a Witherspoons look high class.

Cant remember the name of the pub in Broadfield, near the park, it may have been the imperial.

BTW Just looking at it was enough to stop me going into the snootyfox, ever.

In what respect?

Are you sticking up for the Snooty Fox? ?
If you seriously think the Snooty Fox is that bad then your knowlege of Crawley is limited to say the least.You obviously popped in at some point waiting for a delayed train out of town.The Fox is actually one of the better pubs but that's not to difficult in Crawley granted.
I don't actually enjoy drinking in 90% of the boozers in Crawley as it full of wankers.Same with the night clubs.
Thankfully i live around the corner from the safest and nicest little pub called "The Plough" in Crawley.

I wasn't saying it was the worst in Crawley but it is shit. I haven't been in too many pubs in Crawley but I do know the town well and I've yet to find any pub there with anything to recommend it.

The Snooty Fox I used as an example as I have a friend who lives round the corner so it's a pub I've visited a few times for desperation drinks rather than any genuine desire to spend time in there.

Whilst it may look positively palatial in comparison with other Crawley drinking holes this doesn't mean it's a good pub so I hardly see why my knowledge of Crawley is therefore "limited"

The brewery shades or shades used to be ok but dont know what its like these days. Isn't a decent chippy in crawley any more either by the looks of things.

Its generally a shithole with gatwick saving it from being worse than Halfwits Heath.

I went in the Shades at the end of November and there was a really fit girl working behind the bar who'd had stitches near her eyebrow after a fight.:catfight:

I do like Crawley though even if it's the most chav-filled town in the country.It's the last time i got a shag-in September!:eek:

Has anyone been to that new bar called Purple Moon on Church Road? It is the bleakest, coldest looking, and most uninviting bar I have ever seen. It's been open a few months and I've only ever seen more than one person in it once. I noted the other day on a hand made paper sign that all pints are now only £2.50.

Seeming as the thread has been bounced you may be interested to know that the Clifton in Worthing is now closed and boarded up, with a rather optimistic For Sale sign up outside.

The freehold is for sale how long before it is demolished and becomes flats and on that subject how much longer will The Snipe in Carden Avenue stay closed before that is demolished and rebuilt on. The Duck in HH ihas been demolished and is having a Pets Cornert built on it by Adenstar and The Junction in Burgess Hill had a fire!! and has been demolished. This appears to be the trend with pubs that dont make a profit anymore.

On the other hand, I saw there's finally some work going on at The Racehill. That's been untouched for months.
