Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Little Monster Tap At The Hornet

Micro-pub and brewery tap with large windows on each side of the door and seating on two floors. I found eight of the ten craft keg taps on the bar-back in use, offering five of their own beers and three guests in a wide range of styles. The Joy of Sesh from New Bristol and Lost Pier's If Nothing Goes Right, Go Left (£5.80) were also being served by gravity form casks in the rear cool room. Worth finding.

Since handing over to Little Monster, this micropub has become much more keg-friendly. 10 tap friendly in fact, with 3 cask ales also offered up from the cool room, including one from the host brewery, who have now broadened their range.

The room itself is much as before and service at the bar was chatty and friendly, just as I remember from the last visit 4 years back.

This remains the best option in town in my view.

Blue Scrumpy left this review about The Hornet Alehouse

Of 20 new pubs tried in Sussex over the past few days, the Hornet Alehouse just managed to outshine all of the others. Situated fractionally to the east of Chichester City Centre, this two-floor micropub had a friendly landlady and equally friendly customers.

Downstairs was much more lively on our Sunday evening visit. However, with all tables occupied, we retreated upstairs to a room that initially looked like a child's nursery. Many pumpclips adorn the ceiling, whilst there are quite a few books on display, some available for sale or swap and a selection of board games. The one wall looked like a giant Jenga set, but I didn't try removing any of the blocks.

Back on the ground floor, a blackboard to the right-hand side of the small bar listed 3 real ales, 3 real ciders and 3 craft beers. Ales were 360° Double Act, Plain Ales Independence & Good Chemistry Full Circle. Ciders were Little Earth Project Organic Dry, Sandford Orchards Devon Red & Harry's Mango & Lime Cider, whilst craft beers were 360° Miss The Sun, Brew York Obi Wan Cannoli & Glasshouse Nautica.

The best pub I've found in Chichester so far. My Little Earth Project cider was very enjoyable indeed and was a producer I'd not heard of before.
