Evening Star

Visited early afternoon Thursday 3rd August 2023 - very close to Brighton Station, have been here many times but forgot to rate. Nice old pub but with a very good selection across both cask/keg - featuring many locals such as Beak/Abyss/Cloak&Dagger. They do third pours here so very ticker friendly, prices are what you would expect for central Brighton, staff are friendly and clued up on the breweries providing the beers here, overall a must visit when in Brighton.

Perhaps the best taplist in Brighton. They had 15+ taps, with 1/3 pints available. They had stuff from The Kernel, Vault City, Ascension Cider, and more. Friendly, informed staff that never keeps you waiting long. They also host The Lankan, a Sri Lankan kitchen in the back that offers kottu and other stuff, with plenty of vegan options. Definitely worth visiting.

Extremely busy pub on a Saturday evening close to Brighton train station. 4 regular ales from Dark Star, plus 4 guest ales, plus real cider

Visited on 29 June 2021. Really nice interior; exposed wood, not too much clutter. Low ceiling, but not too imposing or claustrophobic. Beer selected is really quite broad, and there's surprisingly little Dark Star (or there was when I visited). Seven cask beers (four of them Dark Star) and eleven keg (all guest). A good selection of some local breweries, including Downloads and Beak, but more things from further afield; Overtone, Kernel, and a few Belgian and German offerings. They also have a pretty good bottle and can selection. Not huge, but some quality German and Belgian offerings. I also managed to find some Sussex Small Batch at very reasonable prices. It's definitely a must, when you're in Brighton, even though it's ultimately macro owned.

Fancy place.

Quite a walk from the town square and pubs around there, but pretty convenient for the traveller if you're using the trains, reserve some extra time to come here, that's an order. Slightly old-fashioned almost spit-and-sawdust feel to the pub, but not in an uninviting way, it's just unpretentious, and that's good. Great selection of beers from well-respected breweries on tap, and some interesting bottles too. Good staff too, has everything you need from a pub. Recommended.

Visiited on trip to 22 southern counties with OGJ and EE 05.01.19. A nice place with a varied ale, lager and cider selection. Three ciders and seven ales on cask - all served without sparklers. Friendly service. Rather limited seating.

Nice spot near the train station. Usually busy and no room for sitting but always has some tasty beers on tap and nice bartenders!

The best traditional pub in Brighton with always a good selection of ales ( mainly Dark Star ) and good atmosphere. Service in the average but ok ..
