Yes I'll have a pint of that.

You’ve blown your cover, no self respecting craft beer drinker will order a pint.

Nice location, OK food at best.

I had Italian clients who moved to Brighton, who rated the food at Pinocchio's, Al Fresco, Donatello's and Topolino's as having used the cheapest of ingredients, production line fayre. To their taste, pretty poor Italian food, rushed out for English punters.

They rated Pinocchios and Donatellos?!!

Think I've eaten there but obviously not memorable.

However had lunch there the day the west pier blew down. Took the kids onto the beach afterwards and collected bits of wood that we all still have :down:

so many see "chain pub" and make knee jerk assumptions on what it will be. the "chain" currently own the Lion & Lobster and the Walrus, foodie pubs.

Full of bearded men and women stroking their knowledgeable whiskers, nodding in their adulation of a beer having had a rotten corpse being dragged through it during fermentation, whilst supping from a vessel made from the scrotum of a red bear.

You’ve drunk Greene King then ?

That sir is not beer. It's the equivalent of Strongbow to cider (no apples have ever been used in the making of)

It is beer, just not very good beer.
