When we hear the words 'cosy local boozer', we immediately think of Shakespeare's Head in Brighton. Laid back and serene, the team pulling the strings here deserve credit for using an alluring drinks selection and traditional food menu to create a warm and welcoming environment.
Not only can you expect to find some of the most robust yorkshire puddings this side of the equator, you're set to find a selection of specially curated interiors that boast American flair at this Seven Dials retreat. From up-cycled furniture and vintage bar wares to craft beers and locally produced ales, The Cow is a premium retreat right at the very heart of this cool suburban hideaway.
With so grand a locals atmosphere in Seven Dials, you can't be surprised to find so grand a local boozer. From a booming beer garden made for Vitamin D dwellers and pub chow from the heralded Harry McGann to its traditional interiors laden in vintage collectibles and classic charm, Good Companions is just like that, a good companion after a long ol' day at the graft.
Following a gorgeous refurb, The West Hill Tavern is back for business. Head to the quirky and homely pub for whacking pizzas, delicious pub grub and vegan bites, alongside a regular roster of entertainment.
Much like the area it finds itself in, The Chimney House is a serene, calm pub in Brighton's suburban neighbourhood of Seven Dials. The pub is as traditional as they come; the walls are covered in black and white photographs, while the dark mahogany bar is decorated with brightly coloured beer taps, serving the best local ales and crafts beers that Brighton's suppliers can get their hands on.
