Village, Brighton

The distinctive green-tiled exterior shows that this was formerly known as the Horse & Groom, and while this now styles itself as a 'café bar' it retains much of its former United Breweries heritage (including the window glazing). 'L'-shaped bar, with traditional furniture and slightly eclectic decor, but on a Friday afternoon it had a real mix of customers (including young families and students). No handpumps on the counter, but two Long Man beers were available on gravity from casks at the back of the bar: APA and an excellent Old Man (£3.80).
