The Golden Cannon, Brighton

The Golden Cannon is a basic single room pub with a bar on the left hand wall in relation to the entrance. There are a few tables and chairs in the bar area and there is more seating at the rear of the pub where a plasma screen was showing a muted film. The lighting was very dim and there was some very chilled background music playing. The young lady behind the bar was nice enough, but the three other customers at the bar were spouting ridiculous bravado and really were old enough to know better. The bar supports three hand pumps, but two of these were unused leaving Harvey’s Best as the ale option. There is also a standard draught selection, but I didn’t spot any signs for food. This was one of the quieter pubs I found on a crawl of the area last Tuesday evening and after popping in I know why. I will walk past this pub when next in the area.
