14 of the best pubs in Brighton
"We know Brighton's no stranger to a bit of razzle dazzle - small plates with big PR, drag brunches on a Tuesday, bike rides in the nude. But pubs? Pubs are where the city kicks off its boots. Amid the wine bars and craft taprooms, the humble local stands its ground. The kind of pint pullers where dogs (or cats) nap under tables, sausage rolls come piping hot and half your mates are already at the bar (or at least it feels that way)."
"With more pubs per person than anywhere else in the UK - around one for every 680 locals - you're rarely more than a stone's throw from your next round. And while it's hard to have a bad time in most of them, some have that certain Brighton magic: think handsome gastropubs, theatre in the backroom, boardgames by the fire and beer gardens for stretching out with a summer evening and pint glass of pét-nat."
"One of Brighton's best-loved boozers. Simple as that. You've got the 19th-century charm of some dark-wood panelling, Fuller's on tap and hundreds of old tobacco tins decorating the wall (peek inside and you might just find a note from punters past). The team will happily steer you to something special, the whisky list rivals most bars and it's packed most nights. Arrive early, stay late and order the Branston Pickle croquettes to keep you going."
Brighton boasts an unusually high number of pubs per person, creating a compact network of neighbourhood boozers. The scene spans nineteenth-century wood‑panelled locals with extensive whisky lists, tiny eccentric freehouses with indie microbreweries, and handsome gastropubs serving elevated food. Regular features include live music, boardgames by fires, backroom theatre, dogs under tables and beer gardens for long summer evenings with pét-nat. Knowledgeable bar teams and familiar snacks such as sausage rolls and Branston Pickle croquettes contribute to a relaxed, unpretentious social atmosphere where locals and visitors mingle easily.
