Went out for a quick pub meal last night… walked into a $25 steak night!! Pleasantly surprised….both value for money and delicious. Hubby ordered the steak offer and I had the chicken schnitzel..we both ate our meals and enjoyed it very much… Lily our very courteous and sweet waitress was very accommodating. Don’t know if ordering the Italian doughnuts after was a great idea! They didn’t seem to be fresh and when we made that known to Lily she very quickly amended the bill.Class act! A very pleasant Tuesday night indeed! Don’t normally leave reviews but good service needed to be commended.

I really do rate this great pub with an excellent pub style food in the restaurant. We went for lunch yesterday and the service was top notch and the entire team in the restaurant and bar worked hard to ensure everything was perfect! One of the friendly barman came over to let us know they had just got a delivery of Guinness because he had remembered I had asked about it earlier.

Recently held a milestone birthday at Hotel Brighton. It was a fabulous night and everyone who attended had an amazing time. The food was in abundance and the team that served us including the bar staff were nothing short of exceptional. They could not go out of their way more to accommodate our requirements. Caitlin made the process of booking so easy which was so appreciated. It was a very memorable night thanks to their wonderful organisation and the team’s amazing execution. Thank you Caitlin and team.

Visited this pub whilst staying in Brighton. Friendly staff, there was a fun quiz one night. Good music too. Didn't eat here but the food I saw coming out looked good.
