[Brighton Breezy]

Some heavyweights in this group.

Like The Colonnade but The World's End boasts the amazing BBQ Shack.

I wouldn't consider it a pub either, but it got the nominations so it's in. Anyway it's a nice place for a drink, and isn't that what matters at the end of the day?

 

[keaton]

Basketmakers easily.

Northern Lights and World's End are for eating in, not drinking

The World's End is a pub. The Northern Lights isn't.

 

[Notters]

[Albumen]

Basketmakers should whip this (if there was a poll )

Why isn't Northern Lights a pub ?

It has a counter where you have to go to get drinks which has draft beer pumps on it ( and draft vodka ). No table service.

Can't see where the distinction is which marks this out as 'not a pub'.

If there was a Poll I'd expect the Basketmakers to win this

No real ale. Largest area is a restaurant.

Ok, so a pub has to have real ale?

None of Northern Lights is a restaurant ( although they have a food menu like a lot of pubs ), just tables where you can drink your God Lager, or whatever else you fancy.

 

[Uncle Buck]

No real ale. Largest area is a restaurant.

So to be a pub there must be real ale?

Granted places that do not serve real ale, tend to be a bit chainy, but an odd definition all the same.
