Night out experiences in Brighton

“Had some amazing food at Casalingo. The garlic bread was so delicious. 4 of us had the seafood linguine which was superb. The others had lasagne, gnocchi and gluten free pasta steak and zucchini pasta.They gave my Dad a lovely birthday tiramisu which was a lovely touch. It was a quiet night which was surprising for a Friday. Highly recommend and would definitely go again.”

“Must be one of the last pubs of its type. One very good barman, who remembers what you are drinking, watches when you want another, and does the same for thirty people. In the heart of Brighton proper. The Pride was off when I visited but the Strongbow was good. I no longer live in Brighton but it would make a terrific local if I did. Drinks are very reasonably priced. Probably the cheapest in Brighton. I'm told the roasts are good on Sunday too. Clean, good sized residential street pub. Use it or lose it.”

“I loved the atmosphere of this pub! You can tell so much effort went into the halloween decorations, it was so spooky and cozy. Prices were very reasonable and service was friendly. Will definitely be back!”

“This is by far the best and most authentic Thai food I have experienced in the UK! My wife is half Thai and has lived there and even she was amazed at some of the dishes available here that we haven't found anywhere else except Thailand itself. Its a BYOB, which we didn't mind at all. There is a corkage fee but it wasn't over the top by any means. The staff were lovely and were very quick to accommodate anything we asked for, including things like providing small bowls so we could share a larger soup like a starter and other random requests. If you are a fan of Asian food or especially Thai food and can get over to this restaurant I cannot recommend it enough! The venue is small, however, so it's best to book in advance as there's no guarantee you could get a table otherwise.”

“Have passed by here for years and not found time to stop. Made time today and had an amazing birthday meal. Curry goat was amazing, my wife's pork chop was enormous, tender and beautifully cooked. My son's steak gorgeous and apparently the cheeseburger was the best my daughter has ever had. Fantastic staff too, so friendly and happy to answer any queries. Great local beers too. Great to see a small local place so busy”

“Great choice of beers and friendly service in this small and welcoming pub with affordable prices. Worth a visit.”

“We had a table booked for 7:30 Wednesday 14th August for 4 people. We were seated in the courtyard and it was beautiful outside under the Jumbrella - the temperature was perfect : 3 of us had the chicken skewers to start and the chicken was so well cooked it easily came off of the skewer and the garlic butter was to die for. The other had the sharing platter for 2 (the fish one) it was a perfect size for a starter and for one person even though the rest of us “helped him out” . Portion sizes perfect. For mains we had 3 steaks and the surf and turf. Really generous portion sizes, quick service, food was DIVINE it was a shame to finish. We all had the same desert the chocolate mousse choux bun and even though nobody really had room for them they went down very easily!!! We will DEFINITELY return. The manager and all of the team were so attentive, friendly and professional it was a delight to be served by them. We loved the fact that it is a dog friendly restaurant and wish that there were more restaurants like this! Keep up the good work!”

“Lovely food and atmosphere. Friendly staff and reasonable prices. We had an enjoble evening.”

“Pork Pozole bowl was delicious, great balance of flavours with the funky Kim chi radish, spicy and fragrant beans and pork, cooling avocado and pickled cabbage. Corn bread to dunk was a lovely addition of sweetness.”

“Great micro pub. Excellent draught ales and lager on tap.Plenty of choice. Reasonably priced. Good atmosphere.”

“Cracking selection of well kept cask ales (5 available at the time of visit), superb range of keg and a well stocked fridge with beer from all over the world. You're sure to find something you like here. A warm welcome and some amazing snacks - try the poppadoms, thank me later! Dog friendly and a toad table...pub heaven. Well done Jim, another winner.”

“If we could rate this restaurant more than 5 stars we would. All dishes were full of flavour and hearty. The staff were professional and friendly. We would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area. We will definitely visit again.”

“Lovely Ale house. The London Black is a great pint and serves well. Lovely to be in a pub where people chat as there isn't music and TV. (Apart from the live band nights) Really enjoyed it , will be back and not only for the London black. (Didn't mean to go all dr Seuss).”

“Three of us had lunch here last Thursday. This is a local Italian restaurant that is far superior to most Italian restaurants. The food was cooked in front of us with fresh ingredients. It was far nicer than most Italian restaurants and excellent value for money. The staff were very friendly and the service was very good. We will definitely return and highly recommend it.”

“Lovely food and drinks. Our waitress Flo went above and beyond, so attentive and always kept our glasses full, as well as being so lovely and friendly! She definitely made our experience even better! :)”

“Such a good place. Near death people gather here, but in a good way. An older crowd but a right good vibe.”

“Great service from Thorn Taxis. Minibus seating 8 with multiple collections and drop offs. The vehicle was clean and comfortable, and the driver cheerful and didn't throw us around like peas in a pod! Booking done over messages which I prefer as it means both parties have confirmation. I recieved a message to confirm all was ok, a message when the vehicle was with me(early!) and a message when the vehicle was there for the pick up. We were all very impressed and will definitely use Thorn Taxis again and recommend to our friends.”

“Buying shoes is always difficult..problem feet makes shoe shopping hell. Marrion at Pavers Horsham was wonderful she helped me so much today to find some comfortable shoes for my holiday. She was kind, caring & a true professional..this level of customer service is rare these days.”

“What a hidden gem that you now need to visit! The most beautiful tapas restaurant in Hove, designed so stylishly and serving pretty amazing tapas with a twist on your more traditional dishes! A huge selection of wines, local Spanish beers and great sangria, and really friendly waiting staff, too. Spent a really enjoyable couple of hours here and cannot wait to return again soon :)”

“One of my favorite thai place to go locally! Thai is my go to cuisine so when i tell you i had loads of thai food, and this is really good, trust me on this! their honey roast duck is amazing, the sea food tastes so fresh!!”

“I love this cafe. Can be difficult to get a seat due to its popularity. But I can't say anything bad about it. The smashed avocado with poached eggs, crispy bacon, sourdough toast and pimenton is unbelievable and possibly one of my favourite breakfasts/brunches. I definitely recommend”

“Wow, a lovely little pub with BIG personality! Cozy areas, fun decor, great drinks, everything about this place wants me to live here! A great range of drinks, including non alcoholic cocktails! Roast dinner is a winner! Doggies welcome too! Go and enjoy well done staff, u make a huge contribution to the business, happy, friendly, informative, excellent evening thankyou. Philippa”

“We went here for lunch after having seen some good reviews. It has a nice and light pub atmosphere, the service was very friendly and the food was excellent. Everything was great but the scallop special and the spicy king prawns were particularly good. Would definitely recommend.”

“Had lunch with my young family and had the Sunday burgers. There was good selection of burgers too cater for the stuff tastes and on Sunday they have a £10 offer. The cabin fries are also a must try. Would happily go again and enjoy their beer garden”

“Really good! We had a lovely meal here. We were a party of five, all vegetarian. There was a big selection of vegetarian food, lots of tofu dishes, loads of vegetable dishes and rice and noodley things. They have nice soups too. The food comes out lightening fast and is super fresh and hot. You can order as much and as often as you like. Just make sure you eat it all. Recommended.”

“Excellent Thai, we come here as our go to for both dine in and takeaway”

“We had a great roast here. The staff are so friendly and polite. They are very dog-friendly and even gave him some plain chicken, which he was very pleased about! I will definitely be going back. Thank you x”

“Such a good place. Near death people gather here, but in a good way. An older crowd but a right good vibe.”

“The sunday roast is absolutely amazing. The decor and the vibes are so good and the staff couldn’t be more attentive and friendly.”

“First time here. Great food. Really good. Cooked with love... fantastic service. Finland was just great. Also real value for money. Thank you.”
