Brighton's Best Pub

[Easy 10]

hove place is a good pub. not eaten there but good beer, and a great beer garden

Nice pub, but I received an irate text from a mate there last week who'd just been charged £8.10 for a pint of Fosters and a glass of white wine.

Im currently very much into the Hanover. Great food, nice garden, good range of beers.

I cant actually think of a pub IN brighton that actually has a grass beer garden

No to mention the completely OTT wanky decor.

there are many nice pubs in hanover, the geese being a personal favourite. steak night on a thursday, treat night more like, followed by 1.70 pints in king and queen and 1.50 pints in casablanca.. happy days

£8.10 for a pint of Lager and a glass of wine is not too bad as most lager is about £3 and a glass of wine is usually about £5.00 as most glasses are 250ml (1/3rd bottle)

It's not as good as it was when Jim and Heather ran it and it was called The Springfield.

I have only known it as The Open House. How/why was it better. I really like it now, must have been pretty special back in the day.

I rather like The Victory.

Dyke Road Tavern.............and seriously The Crown and Anchor are the best in my hood!!!! The Station (Preston Park) can be a bit American Werewolf in London 'you made me miss that board' if yopu know what I mean!!!!!!

 

[Dover]

I live eight doors down from what was The Racehorse, and now renamed the Bib & Tucker.

Not so much improved, but changed beyond belief, and a smashing pint of Adams too. Also the Hartington is about to change ownership, so I will venture down there too.

However, favorite boozer. The Duke of Wellington, by the station, and still a ten minute walk from home, and the 81 back to the front door.

Within 10minutes walk of my house I've got the Battle of Trafalgar (nice beer and garden), The Yeoman (terrific food), Evening Star (terrific beer), The Albert (the best place to watch live music in the city), The Nelson (Harveys!!!), The Great Eastern (just a damn nice pub), The Basketmakers (lives up to the hype, terrific beer and great simple reasonably priced pub food).

I quite like the pubs in Brighton.

These are all great (esp. The Yeoman)! I'd add my local The Caxton (just along the road from The Evening Star) to this list. Really nice place to go and chill out after work. Oh, and they serve Orangeboom!

I spent a great deal of my youth in The Dyke Road Tavern. If you can get past the sticky floors, filthy toilets, unfriendly patronage and poor selection of beverages, then it is a cracking place.

It may have changed. I haven't visited since early 2000 after an altercation with a 'yokel'. I guess you would have been frequenting pubs in lesser areas back then, so I don't expect you have very high standards.

The Park View's got a lot better since its new studenty-type bar-staff moved in. VERY nice range of beers, wines and spirits. Not that you can get served for ponces ordering food, mind.

There's nothing wrong with The Basketmakers.

I quite like the wick for a night out, the hampton for a midweek beer and he ranelagh in kemp town for a sunday afternoon pimms in the sun.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Used to love the roast dinners at The Engineer.

The Leconfield Arms...














Only joking!

The guide is right the Basketmakers is and has been the best pub in brighton for over twenty years.
