A popular, traditional boozer with bar packed with well kept cask beer from Fuller’s . Go for a pint of HSB and then an ESB!
I had a (giant portion ) of steak pie and chips . Really delicious pie : lovely pastry , tender beef , delicious sauce. Chips were fluffy and crispy . Beer not too bad either. Nice pub grub .
Amazing sunday roast . Had a beef this time and my friend had lamb . Both were good and well served.
Ah, the interior is lovely, fish and chips are amazing, good music and very very relaxed atmosphere . Big love! ????????
The haddock & chips w/ mushy peas - top class ! The basketmakers arms is an absolute gem of Brighton
Try the roast beef , watercress and horseradish sandwich on the white baguette . Absolutely splendid and they don't skimp on the beef .
I like this pub but is quite expensive , one peroni pint is 5£. The food is good because they have some dishes for vegetarians and they are tasty
Love this pub but often packed so you can end up walking through one door and out through the other. Good food.
Excellent food, great for a lunch time visit. I'd get there early though as it gets pretty busy. I recommend choosing from the specials listed above the bar .
Large range of whiskies and great real ale .
Great Sunday roast and definitely open one of the tins on the wall!!

Great ales and food. Check out the hsb or esb

Try HSB and Butser mixed 50:50.
Try some of the whiskys
This place has far higher ratings than it deserves. Ultimately, it's an old mans pub with shit on the walls. Avoid at all costs.
