The landlady deserves special mention. We ordered a couple of Hammerpot something or other which were a bit of a struggle but I don't think we're actually off. She offered to replace them after someone else in the pub didn't fancy theirs. Fantastic service. The Harvey's and Arundel Gold were as usual superb.

I like this pub more and more. Good beer, and made to feel welcome despite only infrequent visits. On our most recent the beers were Harveys, Adnams Broadside, Brains SA and the excellent Arundel Gold. Add in the tasty bar snacks and you've got a great pub. I'm used to London prices so 3 pints of Harveys for £9 was a pleasant surprise.

Not often you unearth a gem.
First visit, and made to feel very welcome with excellent beers and bar snacks. Harveys Best, Long Man Blonde & W J Kings Brighton Best, all hit the spot.
We will be back.

Super pub, actually the nearest one to Preston Park station. Lots of room inside and out (front and back). Lively staff and friendly customers. Good range of beers and of pizzas available at all times (warning: they can only cook one at a time!). Go there if you get the chance.

I visited this pub before the brighton game yesterday. although v busy i found the locals hospitable, the bar staff cheery, friendly and efficient, and would definitely go back. And the beer was good too!
|
Good place to call in for a few drinks in the evening. Always cheery bar staff. :)

'Friendly' has been used in 4 of the 5 last postings; go in there before a Brighton and Hove Albion game and a different view might be taken. Some mates have scars to prove it. Not because of staff mind - but maybe because of their inability (or trainng)to handle a regular problem.

Nice friendly pub with a great selection of real ale that is changed regularly.
We live locally and this is a great little find - have been there a couple of times so far and always very friendly staff.
Also gave me a taster of the guest ale before buying to ensure it was to my taste; a nice touch that is sadly lacking in most establishments these days.
Will deffo be using this pub more and will try the food, which looks like a good selection.
The best pub by far in the Withdean/Westdene catchment area!

Lovely wee pub, good pint and a lovely friendly bar maid. Staff make all the difference in little pubs like this and they've got it just right. Really friendly spot, just outside the station.
|
Friendly pub, good atmosphere and good beer. Nice beer garden which is a complete sun-trap and great for BBQs in summer.
|
Nice traditional local with beer in very good condition. Handy location for the station. It seemed very quiet for a Friday night, which is a bit worrying.
|
Friendly local with a quood quiz night (Thursday).
|
recently decorated, very friendly, beer garden, thursday night quiz, pool table and darts..worth a visit.

It lies opposite the entrance to preston park station, small, good pint of 'spitfire' no food no kids, tv screen, tatty but full of character.
