Strongers . left this review about The Hove Park Tavern

The Hove Park Tavern has a large U shaped bar area and there is more seating up a couple of steps to the rear right of the pub where a dartboard can also be found. Sky Sports is shown and there is a plasma screen either side of the front bar area. This area also houses two pool tables that are free to play during the week between midday and 14:00. The bar wraps around to the right and there is another pool table and plasma screen at the rear. There was a Championship football game on during my recent midweek evening visit so the pub wasn’t very busy and lacked atmosphere. I would be surprised if there wasn’t a decent crowd in here for the big games. Events that I saw advertised throughout the week were open mic and jazz evenings along with bingo on Sundays from 20:15 and poker on Thursdays from 20:00.
The bar is stocked with standard draught and the only ale available was Harvey’s Best. I didn’t see any food advertised.
There is an outside area at the rear that I didn’t visit as my visit was after dusk and the doors are locked after sunset due to lack of lighting.

I’d consider returning here if I was in the area and a big game was being played, but I think that I would give it a miss at other times.
