Haus on the Hill, Brighton

3 real ales and food served. Interior as described below.

I think some years ago this pub was called the Royal Exchange and the current sign hanging outside says ‘Meet-Eat-Drink’, but the friendly manager informed me that this is ‘The Pub with No Name’. The interior is L shaped with a raised seating area at the rear and a bar to the left of the entrance. There is a standard and premium draught selection and the bar supports three hand pumps that were drawing Arundel’s Sussex Gold, Dark Star’s Hophead and Molly Malone’s Brighton Stout. Happy Hour(s) are advertised between 15:00 and 19:00 Monday through to Friday and cheap tapas is available on Tuesdays. There is a plasma screen that was off and I didn’t see any sport advertised, but there was some reggae music playing in the background. There is some outside seating at the rear past the toilets. I found this pub to be very friendly and the Hophead was on good form.
