... and home to a famously artistic yet diverse population, Brighton is a place to celebrate the diversity of life. In fact, with more area of liquor licenses per capita than anywhere else in Europe, it’s a place to celebrate anything at all.
Ever since the Prince Regent started coming here for dirty weekends two hundred years ago, the city has been home to the outspoken, the outcasts and the out of their minds – resulting in a place where the constant generation of original and creative ideas is part of everyday life.
Nowhere, of course, is this better reflected than in the city’s myriad pubs, bars, inns and taverns – whether directly, through their championing of live music, new theatre and visual art, or simply as places in which to relax over a couple of pints.
Yet however good the food and drink they serve, the Brighton watering hole is more than a place to eat, drink and be merry. From starting a band or small fashion label to wider issues of community or environment, the city’s pubs are the places where ideas are born – and some of them might just be remembered in the morning.
Fittingly, for a city with such a varied population, the inns on this site represent a wide cross-section of Brighton life, from pre-club bar to Australian-themed local, and scruffy rock’n’roll venue to thespian hang-out.
Whether you want to see live music from up-and-coming bands, a performance of weird puppetry from a far-flung corner of Europe, an eclectic DJ set from one of the city’s 50 or so record labels, or simply a place to meet friends and consume good quality food and drink from around the globe, there is an inn on this site to suit your needs.
DrinkInBrighton.co.uk provides an inroad into this hugely characterful city which, despite its relatively small size, boasts a nightlife sufficiently energetic as to bear comparison with anywhere in the country. Go on, drink it all in – pick a pub and get started.
