What's the nearest pub to your house you've never been in?

[desprateseagull]

been past the ones in Hamilton Rd / Upper Hamilton Rd a few times.. also the Cobblers Thumb, New England Road- that's gone, and now a container housing project?

Haven't seen the giant thumb on ebay, as yet!

The Farmers in Lancing, also The Merry Monk.

I reckon it's The County Oak off Carden Avenue. Done all the pubs along (and just off) the Lewes Road so can't think any closer to Coldean than that one. I'd never been to the Newmarket either but the other Newmarket, between Lewes and Falmer, is another candidate

 

[Hamilton]

The Preston Brewery Tap. They cater for a certain clientele. It looks like they have a loyal following. It looks like they have fun. Not my cup of tea though.

 

[Butch Willykins]

Lots at either end of my road that I haven't been in:

The Albion
The Alibi
The Neptune
The Sussex Hotel
and there's one round the corner called, I think, The Red Lion.

Don't really have any desire to check any of these out. My closest pub is The Seafield which unfortunately I can't add to the list as I went in when we first moved in - oh my god, never again!

I've been in all those pubs! Not sure that's a good thing though.

The windmill in Burgess Hill, I now live about 50m from it but never been inside

 

[pasty]

For about 13 or so I used to live about 200 yards from The Freshfield Inn but never went in there. We've since moved, but not very far so I would say that's still the closest to my home that I've not been in.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Nearest pub is 5.5 miles away, nearest not visited 8.2 miles away Llanwnnen, but that now seems like a challenge, so won't be for much longer!

Did live 12 paces from The Bridge Inn, at Houghton Bridge a few years back, now it's a fair old walk to The White Swan or The King's Arms in Arundel.

I had moved on by then, where did you live?

From 79 I lived near the bottom of Coombe Rd, I was a regular slot jockey in Fred Beavers naff caff

 

[wunt be druv]

The Good Companions in Peacehaven for me too.

I live in south London these days. Thee are 2 pubs within a 15 minute walk from my house. i have visited them both.. one of them, just the once and never again.

The local pub is not quite the same concept up here as it was back when I lived in Sussex.
Back then a 15 minute walk from home provided an option of all of these pubs (possibly more)

The Clifton
The Lennox hotel
Chapmans
The south down view
The downview
The Norfolk
The jolly brewers
The Richard Cobden
The hare and hounds
The wheatsheaf
The Connaught Bar
The Swan
The jack Horner

Of these, the Norfolk is the only one I have never visited. Is it still there?

You missed The Castle opposite The Norfolk as was in Newlands Rd.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

You missed The Castle opposite The Norfolk as was in Newlands Rd.

Think I may have meant the castle actually.... Which one became Flappers?

 

[theboybilly]

Probably the Cricketers on Southwick Green as there's not a pub in Shoreham I haven't had at least one pint in.

 

[theboybilly]

Blimey. This is a toughie.

Guess it must be the one on the Henfield to Cowfold road at Shermanbury.

That'll be The Bull. Not a bad pub but more food-orientated as are many rural pubs nowadays

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

The Railway Bell

 

[Goring-by-Seagull]

Tough one. I can't think of any pub anywhere near me that I haven't been in.

 

[aberllefenni]

The Red Lion, Llanfair Caereinion. Right next door, was told before I moved in that the beer was crap and had two very good pubs, both within 150 yards. No brainer.

The Seven Stars, Robertsbridge
