Behind the stunningly restored Bandstand on Brighton seafront is Bedford Square, and just above is this impressive back-street pub. Spacious inside with an upstairs restaurant and two-level terrace. Real cider is stocked in summer only. An eclectic mix of pictures and framed mirrors adorns the walls. With a wide range of customers, the pub blends a modern feel with a traditional atmosphere. The subdued lighting includes candles.

Now run by Portobello Brewery.
