Pub in an unassuming location close to the railway station, boasting an excellent selection of local beers and a friendly bar crew. Perfect for a relaxed pint. Few tourists.

we came in a couple weeks ago and had the best time, the staff were super friendly and great- especially our server Daisy, she was really kind, we aren't local so asked her for recommendations and she gave us lots of fun things to do! Food was great and a brilliant selection of beers

Sooooo delicious!! The in-house pale ale is a great pairing with the food and easy to drink for someone who doesn’t usually like beer.

Great quality food at a decent price. One bao bun and side is around £14, so a meal. Welcoming staff and nice atmosphere. Dogs are also welcome.

What can I say, except....world class Bao Buns. Simple as that. The best I've tasted anywhere and they happen to be in a slightly out of the way pub in Brighton. The beer is also worth visiting, a great selection. The Bao buns? Worth a long long detour. Happily, and will be back.

I don’t remember passing by the Pond and I didn’t have the desire to get in. Always has amazing neighborhood vibes and everyone seems having fun. We kept as our last stop and I’m so glad that we didn’t eat before. The Bao was amazing all we had is vegan and there were more to try, hopefully for the next time 😉

It's a very small pub with delicious bao buns and cocktails with nice presentations. However we didn't like the fries which were very greasy.

Having been twice now to The Pond, the food and service has been awesome. Once with friends and the second with the wife. The food is cooked perfectly and arrives rather promptly. Sticky Chicken being a firm favourite!

Great selection of drinks, kind and prompt staff, food was absolutely delicious - excellent visit. Beers will be on the expensive side but that's to be expected with local brews, but will absolutely return even just for the bao!

We came here to eat for the first time last night, on OctoberBest. I was early for my table and was able to have a quick drink and get shown right to it! The staff were seriously amazing the whole time, and our waitress was especially great. We’ve been to a couple of pubs recently and staff have been so rude. The food was also amazing, we tried a few things we probably would never order normally. Will definitely be back, thanks so much!
