Signalman in Brighton and Hove - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fabulous roast! Came here for my birthday last Sunday but we always come here for the beer garden, atmosphere and especially because they have the Laine brew co beers! PS- I noticed there was a bad review below about rude staff, and my friend and I witnessed it, completely on the staff’s side and they handled it well - ignore his unfair review 😂

Amazing roast as always. The best! And always the friendliest staff (and the best music - Sam Cooke is made for a Sunday!)

Went here for a roast as our local in Hanover had changed kitchen for the worst. Was not disappointed! The staff were super lovely, the food was great and the portion size was perfect!

We had a fantastic Sunday roast in the beautiful beer garden. Couldn't recommend more. The staff were amazing, extremely friendly, quick to serve and making a cracking drink. Bloody Mary's, pork roast and the sticky toffee pudding were a highlights but our whole experience was brilliant and hope I can go back again soon. I do strongly recommend you book in your roast and be exact with numbers as you don't want to miss out!

Garden stays open till 12 which is always nice

Best looking bar staff in Brighton, much better than the open house 🤝

Big love for the Signalman! Great vibes and good food! Lovely big outside area as well. Would deffo recommend a trip here!

Had a fabulous couple of nights here during the euros ... great atmosphere & staff were amazing! Despite the staff being soooo busy always cheerful & never long to wait for a drink ! A proper pub run really well ! Ps. Food is devine ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️'s from us xxxx 💙❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Came here for my birthday and had the most amazing time! Staff were super lovely & friendly as well as the pub Itself being so pretty & cozy. Ended up sitting in the garden most of the night and their garden is just lush. Their variety of drinks on tap & bottled beers were so good (and their non alcoholic range!) it meant my friends who aren’t drinking alcohol can still have a drink and it not be a Coke! Also had a couple of their “small plates” while here and they were so delicious. Love coming in here everytime I do & definitely will be in for times to come <3

Such a great pub, staff are always amazing !! Food is also unreal !

Firstly the pub were so quick to reply to my enquiry about reserving some space. Not only did they reserve tables outside for us but also inside in case we got cold. The staff were so friendly and looked like they really liked working in the pub. The food was delicious (we had a burgers, halloumi bites, chips) and the pub just had a great atmosphere inside and out. All the party said they would definitely be going back especially when the sun is shining to sit in their gorgeous garden. Thanks so much to everyone at the Signalman!

This pub is honestly the best - the staff are SO lovely and helpful, the drinks selection is perfect and the beer garden was amazing. 10/10.

Easily one of the best pubs in Brighton. Great food, lovely staff and a really nice community feel. Great for footie too! Stunning all round

Nice pub by the London Road station

Lovely pub, favourite place for me and my friends to go

Sat for 2 hours, buying a couple pints per person (5 of us, also note pints were increased in price for the euros which wasnt mentioned beforehand) then told to leave an hour before the football started because the table was "reserved" even though reservations were stopped at 11am the same day so there was no reason to let us stay that long and spend that much money before asking us to leave.

Had an excellent night here. Not the first time but the first time in a while. Still great lovely staff. Wicked beer garden and good food. X

Great tasting roast with options for veggie and vegans. Staff super helpful and friendly. We had drinks in the lovely garden afterwards and listened to some great music. Wonderful afternoon!

Friendly and welcoming local pub with decent beer selection and spacious outside area. Worth a visit.

Really friendly staff. Great atmosphere and a good range of beers and wine on offer. We only had a drink, so I can't comment on the food.

Today I visited with a friend who frequents this pub and was excited to show me the garden and spoke very highly of its atmosphere. Unfortunately, today we were met by hostility and frustration by what I can only assume was the manager or of similar status as the way the other younger friendly member of staff looked to this woman for validation. The validation was due to when we entered the establishment we had asked if they had a WIFI we could use to message a friend due to the lack of signal. The kind mannered and friendly gentleman serving us responded positively stating that they do, and then turned to a woman who then in turn in a sarcastic yet hostile tone proceeded to say “yes, but only for paying customers”. Assuming the remark was a joke, as we were in the process of ordering drinks, we asked again for the password and she then repeated herself in a cold, patronising tone. We then explained we were ordering but needed to message our friend who was awaiting contact from us, she then from what I can only describe as sulked with a grumpy expression on her face and no apology for her mistake or abruptness. I’ve never been made to feel humiliated, patronised or received such poor customer service in my time spent in Brighton. I think politeness, respect and mannerisms could be learnt from the other staff that surrounded her. I hope this was a one off and if or when we choose to visit again all staff will be welcoming and positive.

i like to come here to watch football and they’ve always got the games on. very friendly staff and food very good. nice locals pub

Every time we’ve been here we’ve been blown away. The decor is lovely and the board games are such a nice touch, the team are super friendly and knowledgeable with excellent service and the food is incredible - the Sunday roast is to die for! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Went to the signalman for thr first time. We all had a roast. Easily the best roast we have ever had! It was absolutely delicious!! Everything was individually flavoured. SOOOOOO tasty!!! Lovely pub and atmosphere. Staff all friendly too. We will definitely be back.

The young bar staff were very nice, nothing was too much trouble, even told us when the next train to the Aamex was.

Amazing Sunday roast. Lovely pub with loads of choices of beers and spirits. Staff incredible and friendly Cracking outdoor garden area. Will be a sun trap in the summer.

Went as ket down by Open House kitchen closed despite booking table and no notice.

One of the greatest Sunday roasts I’ve had for a very long time! Nice little sun trap garden is lovely to sit in also. The beef roast was 10/10. Cauliflower cheese was delicious & the stuffing balls are a must. Will most certainly be back!

This spot in Brighton is absolutely lovely! The garden vibes are on point, especially when the sun's out – it's the ultimate hangout spot!

From the initial booking with Romy for Mother's Day with great advice of timing To the most attentive & delicious Sunday Roasts with extras. Literally the best we've had in the UK! Amazing comfortable pub for all ages. We look forward to coming back soon

We had a delicious Sunday roast, with a group of friends for my birthday. Alice was amazing....she was professional and dealt with us with finesse and humour, as we were high demanding customers after a big night out the night before !! Thanks Alice!

- Great staff, amazing food,wings in Korean sauce plus chicken burger beautiful, great stuff thank you business associate had sausage and mash said also amazing, fantastic gravy

lovely pub friendly staff food amazing served by demi and zoe lovely young ladys very helpful

We actually booked at the round hill pub but we left after awful customer service and went here. All the ladies who were working were extremely friendly and welcoming and the food was amazing and you got a lot for your money too. Save to say our Sunday dinner was saved thanks to you guys and I will definitely recommend people to go here.

Lovely staff, excellent food, well worth a visit!

Have been here a few times, just moved in round the corner and popped in to celebrate. Great service, buzzing atmosphere, what a wonderful pub to call my new local! Shout out to Romy and the team for this fab spot 🤘

We booked a table for 15 of us, and the pub was super cosy with a nice fire! The staff were super friendly and lovely, and were very quick to serve us. We had a really delicious 3 course lunch and the price is reasonable! The gardens are beautiful also in winter, and the beer and wine selection is good! We would go again!

Came for a few drinks with friends and had the loveliest evening. Played lots of board games and had too many mulled wines haha which are delightful!

Always a warm welcome in this pub especially from the very sweet and smiley Mia, she can pull a mean pint of Guinness and always has time for a friendly chat

We had a really lovely dinner it’s such a nice pub!! Service was great - especially our waitress Mia. She was really friendly and helpful!!

Great pub, lovely atmosphere, good selection of drinks and food. Also really friendly staff, especially Milly! She is always great when she is working

Lovely atmosphere created with the fire- staff were chatty and kind, especially Zoë! Will come again :)

My new favourite pub in Brighton! Super warm and cosy atmosphere inside, great spacious garden and staff are always lovely and friendly - we were served by Zoë who made our visit! Will definitely be back

My partner and I popped in for a quick drink and ended up staying for hours playing guess who and drinking mulled wine! The pub is super festive and bar staff are so lovely. Milly made us feel so welcomed and was always smiling! Will be coming again next weekend for sure 😀

The signalman is the place to be, the open log fire, twinkly fairy lights and Christmas decs across the pub make it feel so cosy. Had a few lovely ladies serving me and my friends all evening, one had blue hair think she said her name was Millie, and I didn’t get the others name but she was tall and blonde. Can’t thank them enough as well praises to whoever made their mulled wine that evening it was Devine!

Having built and delivered a shiny new Toad table for the Signalman. I thought I'd pop along and show them how to play this fantastic pub game. The pub is a gem! Lovely, warm and welcoming atmosphere and great staff. Plenty to choose from beer wise too. We happily played toad in its new, purpose built corner and even got a few of the locals playing too. Overall a super night and a super pub. The staff really couldn't do enough for us. I'll be back very soon for sure. 😁😁😁

Roast of your dreams paired with the cozy atmosphere sets you up for the best Sunday! Zoe was super friendly and made our visit one to remember Thanks all - keep doing what your doing :)

Went to the signalman for some drinks after my graduation and it was such a cute and cosy pub. Jojo served us and was very helpful and lovely even though it was a busy evening. Will definitely come again. Thank you!

Lovely cosy pub with a great outdoor area, had a delicious mulled apple and tuaca served by Mia. Definitely recommend!

Such a great pub. Always a warm welcome and lovely service. I was recommended the beef roast dinner- what can I say, no regrets with that👌 thank you Mia. Lovely staff👍

Had a really fun boozy lunch here with friends, good food and service was amazing - shout out to Zoe for dealing with such a large group of us! Can't wait to go again.

I wasn’t too sure what to order but was reccomended by Mia to try the mulled tuaca & apple drink! So tasty & a great drink suggestion was so fun to try something new! Great service & a great vibe 👍🏼👍🏼

Lovely homely pub with a great atmosphere, served by Ella who was very friendly and welcoming Will definitely recommend to friends and come again!

A great local in the London road area. Cosy esp with the open fire, menu has pub classic and winter warmers for the colder months. Had the sausage and mash which was great! Team are always attentive and friendly and pleased to see you. Improved garden is such a great addition.

Such a lovely - welcoming venue! I was served by Ella who was really friendly and kind. Would 100% recommend!

The roast at Signalman is epic! The roast pots were crisp and fluffy, the veg was all cooked well and was tasty, cheesy leeks were delicious and pigs in blankets were cooked properly with the bacon nice and crisp. The best thing was the pork, so much of it and two massive crackling pieces. The service was great, despite being so busy everyone was lovely and would chat a little when they could. Felt very welcomed. We will be back!

Came in last week with my friends for a few drinks and some nibbles, ended up chatting to the nicest bar staff ever who were so lovely and funny. Ella helped us decide on food as everything sounded so good, her recommendations were unreal of course!! Cant wait to come back ⭐

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere. Really good customer service and delicious mulled wine served by Mia!

Went for a night out with friends and hadn’t been to the signalman but it ended up being really good there great food and drinks also the blue haired bartender I think called Millie was lovely and really helpful:)

Me and my four hosuemates came to The Signalman for a Sunday Roast and we'll absolutely be coming again. The set up inside is so cosy and lovely, it felt very festive and cute! The staff were so attentive - our waitress Zoe was truly fabulous and did everything she could to make sure we had a great experience, which really made our day - and the food was incredible! The Wellington and Nut Roast were particularly amazing 🌟🌟 This is definitely going to become our go-to local in Brighton!

Cracking Pub! Best roast in Brighton and the staff are fantastic!

Can I just say, What a beautiful, lovely welcoming place. I live in eastbourne and have travelled to london road brighton, 3 times in 9 days to come to the signalman with my new partner. The staff are so welcoming and just lovely. Great beer and fantastic food. Great value, £11 for a home cooked lunch in the week, Definitely a win win. Also feels so Christmassy in the evenings with the log fire and the fairy lights everywhere. Just love it.

Came with friends for a roast and drinks, super accommodating and friendly team. Food was incredible and good selection of beers. They’ve just had their garden re-done too and it’s amazing!

went for a Sunday roast last week…the pub itself is so nice and inviting! All the staff were really nice. Romy (the manager) checked on us and made hs feel so welcome. One of the best roasts I’ve had in Brighton by far

Lovely pub with attentive staff and creative, and delicious food. So cozy by the fireplace in the autumn as well :)

lovely pub! friendly atmosphere, nice garden and good selection of drinks. will definitely be coming again!!

Such a lovely friendly atmosphere, helpful staff and wide selection of beer and cider on draught. Our group also got some delicious small plates from sam’s kitchen - highly recommend the cauliflower poppers!

One of my favourite pubs in brighton. Lovely staff, amazing food and great drink selection! Always have a great time here

Gorgeous cosy pub with plenty heated garden seating for the winter!

My favourite pub! Loveliest staff and food and drink is to die for

Always have a lovely time at the signalman, the staff are always lovely and the food and drinks are great! With the new and improved booths in the garden it’s going to be such a great pub in the winter too!

Love all the people and the dog. Food and drink is really nice. Lots of seating and cosy corners !!!

Had such an amazing time at the signalman the other evening. The fire was so cosy as well as all of the cute fairy lights around the pub. The staff were super friendly and helpful with getting drinks & giving me lots of options &...

Had an amazing time at the signalman, food was delicious and the service from the bar staff was great as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good pub meal or a cosy night with friends.

The pub is great! We sat in the garden and enjoyed some lovely fish and chips! It was a lovely experience and the staff were lovely and attentive

Very nice pub. Decent choice of drinks and snacks. I've never had a proper meal here. There quite a bit of indoor seating where it is nice and warm. There is also a garden with a fair amount of seating however it does get very busy in the summer. I come here semi-regularly. I would deffo go back and recommend it others.

The food was terrible and overpriced I ordered the pork belly bites, the sauce was just burnt soy sauce for £9.50 was a very very small portion. Service was very slow. Would not recommend anyone order food here. One of the worst meals I’d ever had.

Love, love, LOVE this pub. So many great pubs to choose from in Brighton, but this is the one I most regularly feel like going to. The food coming from Big Sam's kitchen is outstanding - amazing casual food during the week - try the loaded tater tots, or the Korean pork belly skewers - and incredible Sunday roasts. Not to be missed. Such a great place to hang out as well. If you're a Brighton and Hove fan, you'll be amongst friends! The bar team are fab - always full of smiles, and happy to help. Can't recommend highly enough.

We're blessed in Brighton to have any number of brilliant pubs nearby. Despite the heavy competition, The Signalman stands out as an awesome venue, with amazing food, and a brilliant and welcoming team. We visited with family (including a gregarious one year old...) for a...

Our local - amazing food! Lovely service!

Lovely pub. Showing the rugby World Cup, staff run off their feet but full of smiles well done them 🤩

Always a great pub and the food is delicious! To add to this, I’ve up there a couple of times the last few weeks to watch the rugby World Cup and, despite us probably being the only people watching it (especially the non-England games), they’ve always tried to find us a tv to put it on and been super accommodating! Friendly welcoming atmosphere, great beer and delicious food.

had the best food here on tuesday. the bar staff are amazing and complete the experience!!

Lovely pub and garden. Had the nicest pub roast I've had in ages and more recently a really tasty burger. Just losing a star here because of cheaping out with your condiments. Please lose the ketchup sachets (more packaging is bad for the environment) and they were awful quality with added sweeteners. It's perfectly possible to source cheap ketchup and mayo that don't contain additives.

Great vibes and killer roasts! I had a delicious, huge portion of pork with perfect crackling and the cauliflower cheese was gooey, stringy and banging. Bar staff are always lush, and really accomodating (moving tables, putting on sport for us) and it's just the best pub in town!

A really nice pub, a great choice of beer and food, I would recommend a visit.

Best pub and roast in Brighton. Beer garden is great and staff are friendly you can’t ask for anything more

Had the brie and mushroom wellington roast, and cauliflower cheese as an extra. Everything was cooked perfectly and packed full of flavour. Service was excellent and I really appreciated that the veggie options were cheaper than the meat options.

Booked last minute and had a roast. Good god, it was absolutely banging. We had the Brie wellington and every single element was cooked to perfection. Cauli cheese was the best I’ve had in a long time and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout.

Fantastic pub and staff! The pub is lovely and snug with a great garden with booths. Food is always top notch especially since Big Sam’s Kitchen has taken over the menu. Great burgers, mains and small plates! Can’t speak highly enough about the staff. So...

I'd recommend this place for Family or other social occasions. Great food and drinks and friendly atmosphere.

Great pub in a great location, food people and staff are always spot on. Never had any trouble in the pub, the people who come and drink there are a lovely bunch, bit of a locals pub too which is nice but non locals are warmly welcomed. The garden is a huge sun trap on a decent day and they have a secret garden around the back!

Honestly the best roast I've ever had in my life! Portion size was perfect and absolutely cleared my plate

Lovely pub with friendly staff, decent drinks and 2 fantastic gardens! Family friendly, great fire for the winter months and all round good vibes!

Delicious food and awesome vibes every single time

Hadn’t been here for ages as moved out of the area but arranged to meet a friend for lunch. Was delighted to see that the place had the same great feel to it but had been updated and didn’t look tired. The staff gave us...

Had the most delicious chicken burger today. Yum yum!! Will definitely return. The place was clean, and such a friendly atmosphere from the bar staff. Loved it. Thank you

Such a nice evening having drinks at this pub. The beer garden is incredible and inside is also nice n cosy! The staff seemed really nice and helpful too. Would recommend!!

Been going here for the past two years and although my first couple of visits for lunch were made wonderful by the delicious food and great outdoor space, every visit since then has disappointed more and more. Food isn't as great as it used to...
