About The Walrus

A proper Brighton pub where the Sunday and Monday roasts do the heavy lifting — half a lemon and thyme chicken, roast pork belly, or a trio with a thick slice of beef, and Yorkshire puddings people still talk about afterwards. Portions are big enough that most tables leave something behind. There's buggy access, high chairs, a kids' menu and outdoor seating, plus room to spread out: the downstairs is relaxed, upstairs feels smarter, and larger family groups get properly accommodated. The staff are attentive and patient, and dogs are welcome inside, which is rare here. Worth knowing: it fills up even on a Monday evening, so book if you're a group, and food can be slow at busy times — one table waited close to an hour. Order drinks and a snack early if you have hungry children.
