Visited quite a lot this year and have to say it's become one of my fave pubs in the land. Great beer, great people in a brill area of Brighton.
Very charming corner pub with its own brewery. Nice regulars and bar team. Old Ale on cask very tasty and perfect for the season.
My Uncle John Easton used to run this pub years ago he was a Stunt Man and the actors from brighton film studioes used to frequent the pub. I lived there as well as my Grandfather and little John. Ted Bushel another Stunt Man used to come he was a friend he lived across the road they had about 6 children. I wonder if the amazing bakery is still there just across the road and along a bit. And the 3 barristers who lived in the Mews they were friends one of them came to Scotland to visit and get a real scottish breakfast. Dame Flora Robinson who lived in the Mews was also a customer.
Wonderful staff and the usual patronage / regulars are all incredibly welcoming and full of humor. Not one macro brewery to be found. All local-ish microbrews from really incredible breweries. When I return to England, even if I'm staying far from Kemptown I'm definitely popping by Hand In Hand again. Amazing!!!
the barman tonight was very charming and overall i’d say he is on a positive upwards trajectory in his service career. he said his name was clark but obviously that must be a pseudonym. i don’t recommend the “hobnotto” he was trying to sell to us which comprised a small glass of homemade stout with a hobnob biscuit in it. it was vile. nonetheless, best pub in the universe.
Cozy and friendly pub, with a range of their own brews.
Great little pub with Toad in the Hole. Friendly staff, quality beers and fascinating interior. The ‘Toadseye’ pub quiz is not to be missed
This pub is very pub. Proper British pub and I absolutely loved it. My Mrs and her father have been visiting this place for years and they said I should visit and they were so right! The beer is mostly their own and is excellent! There's an old pub game called Toad or Toad in the hole, there's love music every Sunday, the locals are very friendly and the staff are super lovely. I can't wait to go back....it's well worth the 400 mile commute!
Fun bar with a nice atmosphere and brilliantly unique interior. Very good beers on offer! Loved it.
A great small bar that is fantastic for beer lovers as they serve a large range of beers most of which they need themselves. We went a week before Christmas, and the bar man was being very strict on covid measures which worked for me, and we chatted happily about the beers.
