Pubs & Inns in Brighton & Hove

Whether it’s a pre-show drink or putting the world to rights there are pubs in Brighton & Hove for every occasion.

If you’re looking for real ale or a craft beer then there are plenty of pubs in Brighton to choose from, if you prefer a fine wine then that’s no problem either and several pubs will serve local Sussex wines. Another local tipple to look out for is Brighton Gin, easily recognisable by its distinctive branding inspired by the city it’s distilled in.

Gastro Pubs

Food fans are well catered for by pubs in Brighton with a smorgasbord of gastro pubs to tempt and delight. The Coach House in the Lanes has a courtyard for al fresco dining and a roaring fire for cosy winter nights indoors. Hove Place does a cracking Sunday Roast as well as delicious bistro style dishes throughout the week. Locals were delighted when the famous Gingerman restaurant opened a series of sister pubs – The Ginger Pig, The Ginger Dog and The Ginger Fox all bringing restaurant quality food to pubs in Brighton & beyond!

Pub Entertainment

If you are looking for some entertain to go with your beverage then there are plenty of options at pubs in Brighton. Mrs Fitzherbert’s regularly has live bands playing and the Ladies’ Mile host swing & jazz nights.

Famous Visitors

If you want to try a bit of celebrity-spotting we recommend having a drink at The Black Horse or The Colonnade. The Black Horse is opposite the Brighton Dome making it a popular spot for acts enjoying a post-show tipple, particularly during the Comedy Festival. Next door to the Theatre Royal Brighton is the quaint Colonnade bar, take a look at the signed theatre programmes and photos on the walls to see who past patrons have been. The Cricketers in The Lanes is one of the oldest pubs in Brighton and past guests are said to include ‘Jack the Ripper’ and Graham Greene who immortalised the pub in his classic novel – Brighton Rock.
