Visit one of the nicest pubs in Brighton - the Earth & Stars
A pub recommendation today. We aren't sure if they're doing anything Christmassy, although we didn't choose it for that reason. It's simply a very nice pub, especially if you're looking for somewhere cosy to park up for Christmas Eve.
Mostly recognisable for sentient chalk boards outside with messages saying hello or complaining about the life of the chalk board (the above photo not doing justice to this in any way), it's full of chatty happy types generally and has nice food, and importantly nice drink; organic beers (the only place we're currently aware of offering this) and wine, as well as the normal pubby stuff.
One Qype review describes it as "perfect" and interestingly says: "ever been wandering around Brighton looking for a pub to have a Sunday lunch that isn't full of cheap ass students?" Which is true, although I'm a student (perhaps not shouting 'cheap' and 'ass' everywhere I go) and felt right at home.
We hear only good things about the roast - with locally sources veg, which is good if you like your food with moral conscience - although we suspect lunchtime rather than dinnertime would be the best time to investigate this today.
Undoubtedly one of my favourite pubs, and not just because my friend fancies the bar maid. It's a lovely little place and it's one you take your friends to, and so we advise you to do so too. If you're going there tonight we also advise getting a table early.
