Maris Otter in Brighton and Hove

Our last night in Brighton when we discovered this pub. Excellent welcome from the manageress and staff, complimentary glass of prosecco, and free buffet as well! Comfortable seating, warm and friendly. Husband drank a local beer or two and I had mulled wine. Will definitely return the next time in Brighton! The pub also has 4 bedrooms which looked very sumptuous and comfortable on the video playing in the bar.

Quizzes are very interesting here! Beer is quite good, can’t complain

2 out of 4 Harvey's beers on cask. The olympia went off half way through pulling the pint... Pub was dead on a sunny Sunday evening. Dirty glasses left on tables. Won't be going back.

Guy working the bar started pouring me a pint, got halfway through and I got out cash. He said we don’t take cash, proceeds to throw the beer down the sink. Wasteful attitude, zero care for customer service and a general nuisance situation. Literally threw it down the sink. Moronic attitude towards zero waste.

Wonderful comfortable pub, with the best served pint of Harvey's in Brighton.

Fantastic stay in Brighton! Room had more amendities than expected and excellent staff working in the pub downstairs! Effy in particular was brilliant, so knowledgeable about the local area and was so warm and welcoming and good fun! Definitely helped to make our stay memorable. Definitely stay here or at the very least come for a drink and a game of Jenga!

The bar is super cosy, on a quiet side, good service.

Just popped in for a drink. It's a Harvey's pub, and there were 4 Harvey's real ales on the pump. Very well kept. It was quiet, so sat in the bar side with the other people there. Didn't realise they did food, but not serving when we were there. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere.

Proper pub with a good mix of beers, friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere.

Warm white wine and off tasting beer, very disappointing as I had high hopes for this place

Good Harvey's pub not far from Brighton's West Pier. Three cask beers on handpump when I visited including a Christmas Ale. A few tables outside. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We went on a Monday night and the food service was very slow. I understand they bring food from the shop next door, thought it took very long for our order to arrive. The place doesn't provide any condiments either which we found out when asked for Ketchup to go with our chips. Drinks were decent, same as you would expect at any pub. There was a dessert menu placed on each table though upon enquiry we were informed that no deserts were available.There was only one staff member who was managing everything from taking orders to collecting food from the shop nearby and serving food to people's tables, though he did a good job of managing everything. I would only go here for drinks and avoid ordering any food

New pub revamp. Good atmosphere and cleanliness. Visit before the masses.

I know this place is relatively new which brings a great willingness to do well. The staff were lovely and the prices extremely fair. It's good to see pubs not completely take the mick with pricing. OH I nearly forgot to mention the toilets, yes it's odd to mention in a review but they are extremely clean and unusually good for a pub. Keep up the great work!

The pub is so beautifully refurbished by Harveys Brewery and the suite Hotel rooms are stunning..The staff are extremely helpful, kind and they go above and beyond their duty always

Very friendly pub with a fantastic local singer Savannah who is amazing with a magical voice!!! 👏 ❤️

Cheapest beer in Brighton quality service I would recommend 100%

They have only been open a few days so there will be a settling in period. The beer - good selection of Harveys beers but disappointing that there was no Best Bitter. One beer was off but was changed without query - they need to check them before start of service. Decor - as you would expect it has been fully refurbished and looks really smart. Food - the burger was good but I was amazed when they said they don't provide cutlery, so eating is a rather messy experience (hence the title); the chips were excellent.

Popped in for a late drink. Good choice of beers and friendly bar staff

super friendly staff and landlord, I've been working in Brighton for a few weeks and have been made so welcome at this pub, great food amazing Caesar salad, great beer, and friendly pub highly recommend

What an excellent selection of Harvey's beers. Food not available today unfortunately as had planned to eat here buy mo problem as plenty of places to eat nearby. Enjoyed very much several hours of a very good singer and guitarist so stayed longer. This couple a regular feature every fortnight . .

We came here on Friday evening for food and a couple of drinks, we had fish and chips and chicken burger Cajun, the food was very good and the tartar sauce freshly made and had a great taste, there was a good selection of beers, I had neck oil,and there were other real ales as well as bier moretti. The prices were reasonable and the staff were friendly, definitely give it a try

I am delighted to Say ! That this place Now accepts. CASH. Also the Food is good and individually cooked, upon order. Well done 👏

I don’t dislike this place, but shatteringly loud indie music at 6pm on a Wednesday will put me off coming back anytime soon.

Very welcoming and friendly customer service, I bought a cocktail and it was divine so I will definitely go back there again.

Really friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Roast was not the best I’ve had but much cheaper than most places at £15:95 a pop. Photo on the left is their roast beef; one on the right by yours truly.

Great place to stay Lovely accommodation Friendly proprietors Great facilities Will definitely visit again

DONT ORDER FOOD!!! (Bar staff fantastic!) Ordered food (burger and chips) Waited 40 mins Asked how long our food would be, was told 5 mins Waited another 20 mins to be approached by bar staff saying there was a problem with our order ( small aside chef had a cigarette hanging out of his mouth whilst cooking) Bar staff were brilliant dealing with my refund DONT ORDER FOOD!

The food and service was amazing! The person serving us, Ryan, was a delight to talk to and the vibes in general were immaculate

Ok. Beer excellent. Food average "can get anywhere "

A conveniently-located pub with a good range of local beers on tap and an extensive menu!! Efficient service and a modern interior - a nice place to meet with friends for a quick pint ☺️

Just a normal cosy pub, nothing special but you know what you’re going to get! Espresso martini was very nice. Worth it when they have happy hour.

Lovely lunch - good portions and beautifully presented. Service was efficient and food cooked very well. Thank you!

I stopped for lunch, and enjoyed every single item of food I ordered. Amazing how many vegan options available. I strongly suggest it!

We stayed above the pub in their rooms. Very beautiful decor. A little smaller rooms than it looks on the photo but a big bathroom. Cute pub and attentive staff.

Not exactly a Harvey's flagship... go to the Lord Nelson or most pubs in Lewes.

We were a large party and the were helpful is getting us comfortable and moving tables around until we were. There is a nice little secluded back garden. Food was OK, nothing really special but quite OK, chips were nice. Prices reasonable.

Good selection of beer on tap and a good atmosphere.

Very cramped restaurant (the conversation on the adjacent table was interesting) and at one stage we had been forgotten about. The food was normal for a BI (having dined in a few) but I doubt if we would go back to this one.

Food was great, beer was great, barman was friendly.

Great atmosphere, chilled out Xmas Day with friends

Great beer & atmosphere. Nice and cosy

Great beer, cosy and modern design. Definitely worth a visit

First time there. They had Christmas ale on tap and you can buy mini kegs. I'll visit again one day.

Excellent addition to the Harveys brewery portfolio of managed pubs. Located along Western Road on the Brighton/Hove border but easily walkable from centre of Brighton. As usual with Harveys Brewery, the ales are fantastic & always of a consistently high quality. Only been open + 1year so the modern interior still in excellent condition. Worth a visit 👍👍

Amazingly poor choice of beers/ales considering it's a Harvey's pub. Apart from that it also has very little character or atmosphere

Really friendly. Cocktails were lush and it was 2 for £14. Bonus.

Always a warm welcome. Xmas ale should be on any day now!

Good selection of ales from Harvey's. Some lovely collaborations with other brewery's that you don't see else where and seasonal brews.

Lovely atmosphere and good beer

Fantastic cocktails and food, quick friendly service.

The staff is great, very tasty food was pleasantly surprised. I will definitely visit it soon highly recommend it. 🖐

Lovely pub and good ,fun helpful staff

LitteraRy the best breakfast I’ve had… will be back for many more breakfasts

I would give it a 5 star but they don’t take cash. My choice must advertise outside before people buy drinks You’ve lost my custom as I’m sure many others

Great staff, great pub / hotel and we'll kept beer.

Really disappointing experience today, popped in at 11.45am this morning and had a juice and latter with my daughter. Around 12.15pm we decided to have some lunch, however the barman (who was lovely and helpful, both were actually) said no lunches until 1pm - but as they were empty he asked the Chef. The Chef flatly refused to make a burger despite the fact there wasn't one other customer in the pub, nor did he look over and offer any kind of apology or reason - just incredibly poor customer service. I asked to settle the bill, clearly looking disappointed and waited 10 minutes as there were 3 staff on, half expecting someone to say "no problem, we can do this" but happily let us walk out of empty pub. Nice one Chef.

Best breakfast we have had in Brighton. Lots of choice, friendly staff and delicious food. Very reasonable too - £8 for a full breakfast. Great coffee too and relaxed atmosphere

Yet another Brighton establishment. That sees fit. To make Societal decisions. Discriminatory, against the Many people. Who for different reasons. Don't have a Bank account. Cost 2 Stars. I do have an account. Just sticking up, for those that don't.

Service good. Very relaxing style. Would recommend. Stayed 2 nights in the accommodation over the pub and it was very clean and comfortable. Will definitely try return

Excellent build your own burgers nice range of beers and friendly staff

I cannot fault the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff despite being busy. The food was delicious and I overheard a conversation re: not having a big enough kitchen for proper crockery so they found a compostable alternative….wobbly plates but very kirsch! The coffee is really lovely and this place has a fabulous vibe. We really enjoyed our breakfast. 😁

Fab bar, lovely staff, great Harvey's selection and excellent cocktails. Went 3 times during a weekend stay.

The best breakfast in the area. All produce locally sourced and cooked fresh to order. Superb portions . Friendly staff and great service. Would recommend

Fantastic rooms - thoughtfully decorated and very comfortable, great pub below, wonderful helpful host.

Loads of vegan burgers and hot dogs. I had the German option which was loaded with gherkins, vegan bacon bits and sauerkraut. Really tasty.

Great Staff, great food, great beer. Amazing Loos!

Nice pub, really friendly staff and great food. Recommend

Absolutely fantastic!!! Every day, some kind of offers, like happy hour, or burgers on discount, board games to play etc etc,,, definitely go and visit if you are in Brighton and prices are bargain! Stuff are so relaxed and friendly, portions are big so ask before ordering 😄

Amazing atmosphere and great food.

I cannot recommend this place enough! The staff were so incredibly generous! Visit if you’re in town!

Looks a bit like a New York coffee shop, but decent selection of Harvey's ales and others

the staff here are so lovely and attentive! excellent service, the place is nice and clean, tasty food and coffee for a good price!

Thoroughly recommended. We had the italica muffin and and the vegan breakfast, which were delicious. They kindly swapped out the beans in the breakfast for a preferred ingredient, and provided vegan mayo. But most importantly the staff were friendly and obliging, and the general atmosphere of the place was completely charming. My impression of them was sealed when they went to some trouble to send me a link to the beautifully chill playlist they had been playing. Would be a regular if I were local.

My first time in this fairly recently opened pub, following a big revamp. They've done it well. Certainly we'll worth a visit with a widd range of Harvey's ales.

Great new pub with a welcoming atmosphere and a decent selection of beer (always happy to see unbarred!). So much better than the prior offering!

Great pub, the Harvey's is top notch.

Good service and food Would go again

Great local since being refurbished.

Excellent beer selection of you like fantastic ales, highly, highly recommended

Great new addition to Brighton. Good selection of ales and friendly service.

A great pint of Harvey's, as you would expect... Nice friendly service as well

This is such a nice new pub. Harveys have done a fantastic job. Great choice of cask ales and craft beers. Very clean and tidy and friendly smiley staff. Will definitely be back.

Great food, great beer, great place.

As a Harvey's pub you can be sure that the beer is going to be good. Friendly staff too

New to me. Beer was good, food looked ok! It's a pub...

Lovely new pub, great selection of beers and drinks. Cosy and inviting decor and food looks good

Excellent renovation and an enjoyable pub for a drink :)

Lovely Harvey's pub. Much choice on taps, nice toilets too...

Good range and quality of Harveys beers available, it's just a shame it's another pub that's gone 'card only'.

New place with very welcoming staff. They are always kind and helpful. The food tastes well and they are in the process of building their menu. I'll be back for sure! I almost forgot... they are super pet friendly!
