About us

A village pub in the heart of Brighton, we’ve been pouring ale on Surrey Street since 1854. Once home to the Hilton Twins and more recently Dark Star Brewery, we’re now an independently ran Free House, bringing you 22 taps of the freshest beer and cider.

For almost 30 years our first love has been real ale. We keep 7 lines of fresh, cask conditioned beer, and 3 naturally still ciders. The hand pumps now sit alongside 12 keg taps dispensing a wide range of beer from the best independent breweries in the UK, Czech Republic, and Bavaria.

Love this little pub. Went there on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Was treated to two delicious stouts. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was gentle and calm.

Brilliant, characterful old pub tucked away near Brighton Station. Card only payment. This pub offers a vast array of unique cask and keg ales. Very knowledgeable staff correctly identified an absolutely delicious IPA for me of the right ABV and taste. Go here if you likes your ales.

What an awesome pub, with just the most amazing rotating beer selection. Loads of well kept cask beer, lots of stunning keg options and a well stocked fridge of special beers for sharing. Will most definitely be heading back here again, in fact its given me a reason to want to go to Brighton more often to have the chance to drink here again.

Wonderful selection of ales & beers, superb Sri Lankan street food, enthusiastic staff & proper pub atmosphere. Definitely a discovery Update: Just a couple of drinks this time but great place & nice staff

By far the best pub near Brighton station with a great selection of keg, cask and ciders at very reasonable prices. It’s fairly small so can get crowded at times, but that’s testament to this pub’s popularity. I tried a Schneider Weisse beer which was great. It’s always worth popping in here if you’re near the station.
