This is a comfortable flagship Harvey's house on the fringes of the North Laine area. The pub is little changed from previous reviews. You'll find 5 or so from the brewery's range on the pumps including, on my visit, Old reaching the end of its season and the topical Carolean (£5.30 the pint).

The Lord Nelson remains a reliable option close to the station (though on a steep gradient for those chasing a train) if you prefer something traditional over some of the nearby pubs.

A splendid pub just down from the station, with pretty well the full range of Harvey's beers on offer including the Mild. It has benefitted from being extended into the shop next door, which adds a couple of tabled dining-type areas to the original two rooms by the bar, which retain the excellent unspoilt locals' pub feel. Recommended as the first (or last) port of call from the station.

Update 07th June 2014

Six months on from my last visit it's been deleted from the current GBG due to change of manager.
The scaffolding has gone from outside and I didn't think the interior had changed at all. I only had time for a very swift pint of Armada (£3.60) which was in good condition.


Visit 14th December 2013

Back in the days of doing cycle trips that involved stopping at what seemed like every pub between Turners Hill and Brighton or chasing around the Harvey's and King & Barnes tied estates, this place and the Gales Basketmakers were always "must visit" pubs when ending up in Brighton.
On my Saturday evening visit it had scaffolding on the outside so it presumably was getting a facelift. The interior was much the same as I remembered it apart from the Gents which had been cleaned up. I hope that Harvey's don't do any more than clean it up a bit and a new carpet or flooring in the "saloon" bar.
There was room to sit down right next to a large poster advertising the film Quadrophenia.
There was a good range of Harvey's beers on including the mild. I went for the Old Ale (£3.60) and the Christmas Ale (£5.30). The Christmas Ale was not entirely clear but went down well.
