Visited on our stay in Brighton to celebrate my friends 60th Birthday. We didn't eat here as had eaten earlier in the evening so can't leave a food review. We come here after hearing about live Music. We had a great evening and were not made to feel unwelcome ( being a couple of older ladies we often get ignored or feel out of place). Big thank you to Julien, Luca and Molly ( bar staff) for making our evening fun, enjoyable and friendly. Live music was fun, drinks were good, staff were great .

We had 3 lovely roast dinners and a kids meal. The food was really tasty. The staff were great and it was good value. It was a friendly atmosphere and felt cosy. Would highly recommend.

Nachos here are delicious!!!! It was such a pleasant surprise as we were super hungry and just picked a pub at random, but both are meals were epic. The burger was so juice it dropped (yum!) and the nachos were everything you want in a nachos honestly. Would try again if I was in Brighton! I would recommend sitting inside maybe? There were lots of flies outside

Great food but loud. Good options for food with good vegan choices. Lots of burgers this is the best part and they taste really good. They also have good sitting outside however there was a very noisy group of people which slightly annoying. This may not be there fault but the where shouting and pretty drunk and the staff did not ask them to quite down at all when this was distributing a lot of customers just trying to eat and this was at only 6 pm if it was like 9 onwards to be expected but not when customers just want to eat dinner. It's really as shame they had to loose a star for this also dessert options could have being more as there was only one.

My husband and I came here for the vegan Sunday roast. We had the filo parcel & nut roast and both were delicious. The only disappointment was the potatoes which were dry and a bit tasteless :( but the gravy alone is worth a visit. And the portions are HUGE - we went without dinner tonight!

Sehr netter Pub mit sehr freundlichem Personal, das mir ausführlich die Biersorten erklärten. Leider nichts gegessen, vllt das nächste Mal! (Translated by Google) Very nice pub with very friendly staff who explained the types of beer to me in detail. Unfortunately I didn't eat anything, maybe next time!

What a GREAT Sunday roast. Every element of it was delicious. It was a nice sunny day so we were able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine. Great selection of drinks too!

A friend had told me to go for a Sunday roast here and I'm so glad that I did. It was my first ever Sunday roast, so I can't compare on that front, but everything tasted very good! The staff were all very friendly and seemed to enjoy dealing with customers and talked happily to each other when not busy. I love seeing that. A good work environment makes for a better experience as a customer as well as the workers.

Giulia is incredible!! Her cocktails were absolutely to die for and I will definitely be back again. I wish I could spend all day just staring into her beautiful ocean eyes whilst she creates an explosion of flavours for my mouth.

When the whole street is named after your pub you know you’re doing something right. The quality food sign up front lives up to its promise. The views are great and they do have a Biergarten at the back too.

Nice pub, but needs a better selection of beers. Food was lovely but gave it a 3 because of the price, nice but a bit overpriced. Service was good. Would recommend as long as your not worried about paying for good food.Dont believe the review about LBGTQ people not being welcomed. That is a complete lie. This pub is for everyone.

I didn't come to Brighton to eat nachos, but ... these were among the best I've ever had... ever. The bar tender who was full of humor suggested the Nachos and they were right.. more than enough for 3 hungry people. Everyone enjoyed and there was a vegetarian option. The IPA was delicious... good atmosphere, Very enjoyable.

Really good food although not a massive selection. Sharer plates for 1 are an alternative to a main Good beer selection, not bad on value either. Staff were nice and friendly. It was virtually empty on the night I visited, this suited us but might not be your thing.
