Pub · Brighton
A proper local, this one — the kind of Brighton pub where a family can settle in without anyone tutting. There's loads of room for prams, an outdoor area at the back, and drawing bits and games to keep small hands busy while the food comes. The toilets and changing area get a special mention from parents, which tells you something. Sunday roasts are the draw: pork belly with crackling people still talk about, proper generous gravy, and a crumble more than one person compared to their mum's. Pizzas come out enormous, and there's a brunch menu now too. Worth knowing it's a genuine pub — live music and quiz nights mean weekends and some evenings get loud and packed, and food can be slow when it's rammed. Go early with children, or on a quieter weekday.
