Now a Craft Union pub, which means cheap beer and a well-run pub. In this case there's also some real ale: Timothy Taylor Landlord, Oakham Citra and Harvey's Sussex Best, the last named at a ridiculous £2.85 per pint, or in my case £1.45 for a half. It was in reasonable condition - as good as in the Cricketers the previous evening anyway. It's a bit loud in here, but the soundtrack included Razorlight's Golden Touch, possibly my favourite track from the Noughties. Handy for the station, but I'm not leaving until tomorrow.

This pub may not be everyones cup of tea, but not is it convienient for the station it's very cheap for Brighton, ideal if you like your football while you can also enjoy a drink sat outside overlooking the busy junction. Standard selection of drought beers & lagers but at affordable prices unlike next door where you can pay £7.00 for a pint, I usually end up here with a couple of double G&T's on my visits to Brighton.

Very close to the station. It was a straight choice between Doom Bar and Harvey's Sussex Best. Doom Bar lost - but so did I! If that was Sussex Best I'd hate to try Sussex worst! Glad I only had half as it wasn't great. Quickly moved on.
