The Caxton Arms in Brighton and Hove

A favourite for me and my friends, nice atmosphere and the food is good. Three toads tables, darts, bar billiards, and a selection of board games!

Delicious Sunday lunch. I opted for the beef and asked for it to be as rare as possible which is was and it was delicious! Yummy potatoes, veg and gravy, excellent side of pig in blankets. Only small gripe was the stuffing balls were a bit dry and. No baby change. However this did in no way dampen the visit. It’s a lovely pub, great food and lovely staff. Will visit again.

Love this place. It's great for ales, games, food and amazing atmosphere. I usually take my toddler and he is happy playing with the Lego available. Only downside is if you are too close to the toad table, but I guess that's everywhere

As a brighton fan has to be the best pre match beer stop.

The best Brighton pub with the best staff and most amazing land lord!!

Great landlord and staff. Good quality beer, wine and food. Excellent roast dinners . Good idea to have games and books for patrons to use whilst there.

Lively crowd. Quirky, old-style pub with a modern flourish. Outside area. Very friendly and rapid staff. Draught beers something different. Variety is always good - certainly in this case!

Great New Year's Eve party last night - thanks to all the friendly staff for a fun night!!

Lovely Sunday lunch. Thank you.

super cute pub great vibes and the fact that there’s not only feminine products available but also hairspray, dry shampoo and more in the ladies toilets is incredible (:

Nice pub great staff and food. Here for a Bar Billiards match.

They have not 1, or 2, but 3 Toads!

This is my all time favourite pub, staff are brilliant and accomodating, food is great and I always bring my friends here for some lunch, chips are amazing and really nicely priced, one portion is enough to share with 2 or 3 people! Owner is really lovely and clearly makes a point to remember people. Also lots of traditional pub games and lots of board games! Beautiful beer garden and two TVs to watch the sports. Can't recommend enough

This pub has everything going for it. The food, both the standard week menu (burgers, fries, fish and chips, nachos, etc) and the Sunday roast are fantastic. Both menus also cater for dietary requirements and certain allergens such as gluten intolerance. Great selection and prices on drinks. They show the rugby and footie. There's 3 toads tables and a crazy amount of board games. Easily my favourite pub in all of Brighton. The Caxton is the spot.

I love this place, the staff and the food are so great! Our office of 60 is spoilt for choice in Brighton but this is possibly the nicest place you could come to for food or a good tipple. x

Absolutely love this pub, great atmosphere

Am a regular visitor here before Brighton home games, and despite often getting busy the atmosphere and service is always friendly and relaxed. Excellent choice of drinks - ales, lagers, IPA’s, ciders and non-alcoholic choices. Whenever we’ve eaten here the food had been delicious and reasonably priced. I live up near London so only really visit when coming down to watch the football, but if I lived anywhere near here it would absolutely become my local of choice.

Stopped in for a quick pint and plate of chips! Great prices, great service & great atmosphere! Will definitely be back again! If you’re looking for somewhere that won’t break the bank check here!

Trivelig pub med godt øl og god mat til en bra pris.

Decent pint, moody barman, food looked good.

One of my "go to" Pubs in Brighton, met some friends here, sat and chatted in a lovely relaxed atmosphere with decent beer at a reasonable price, didn't eat on this occasion but have in the past and have always enjoyed it. Nice and friendly bar staff made us feel very welcome. Will definitely go back again!

Fabulous Sunday roast, nice beer and wine, friendly staff. And a nice little covered courtyard garden out back.

Refused service because I didn't know what I wanted to drink .. Bartender then processed to tell me he would not serve me. Interesting at 7 pm when people playing pool were rowdy!! .. if I was drunk would I be writing this .. SORT YOU MALE BAR STAFF OUT!!

Fantastic Sunday roast, clearly made with care. Had all the meats which was delicious, but be warned, it's a lot of food.

Great friendly pub! Nice beer garden..

Great friendly pub. Board Games for long rainy days. Football memorabilia BHA Seagulls⚽ And MOD Themes 🎯 Lovely chicken wrap, Greek style. Huge Great burgers and kids sized too

A hidden gem in Brighton, the best chicken gyros I’ve ever had! Can’t recommend this place enough.

Had a great Sunday roast. My Vege wellington was lovely, great vegetables and gravy. Could have been slghtly hotter but I would definitely go again. My friends loved their pork belly and lamb. Staff were friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed.

Accommodated us last minute. Great roast dinner, along with wonderful service and good beer. A must visit for anyone who enjoys a really good pub!

Ate dinner mid week at the Caxton Arms, during our stay in Brighton. Very welcoming bar staff. Nice, warm, cozy pub. It was happy hour so we were able to double up on our drinks! Good selection of wines, beers & spirits. The food menu offered a good choice for vegetarians, vegans & meat eaters & gluten free. My partner ordered the fish & chips, I had the vegan burger with skinny fries. Service was very good. Food was excellent- my vegan burger had lots of flavour, big portion & was well priced. My partner really enjoyed his fish & chips. Pub was surprisingly busy for mid week. Nice popular spot. Huge selection of board games - if that’s your thing. Recommended.

Good atmosphere, lovely staff, good beer selection. Didn't eat so can't comment on the food.

Great pub just off the beaten path, good food, good beers and great staff.

One of my favourite pubs in Brighton. Hidden down a residential road away from the crowds. Reasonably priced beer, live sports shown with no idiots and classic pub games.

Visited as a family.....played bar billiards all afternoon. Darts and toad-in-the-hole also available 😂Highly recommended- fun day.

Such a lovely pub, went for the simpsons quiz, came second! Will be back for sure. Impressed with how friendly and kind the bar staff were. Portion of fries was actually big too!

One of the best pubs in Brighton. Friendly service and decent prices. So many boardgames to play as well as 3 toad tables and bar billiards. They even have a comedy space downstairs. Constantly coming back here

We had such a fabulous fun evening at the caxton arms. Went specifically to play bar billiards and stayed until last orders. Brett, Anders and Esther were friendly, and were genuinely happy to serve us, also checking we were okay, and serving us drinks promptly with a smile and conversation. They truly made us feel welcome, like we were regulars. Couldn't have asked for a better night. We will be back!

A relaxed ambience, staff helpful and cheerful, great food 👌. Close to Brighton Station, so extremely handy for refreshments before/ after trip to Brighton 😊

Good traditional pub. Friendly staff, good food and drink.

Perform in their function room as part of the Brighton Fringe. Nice size performance space with good stage. Second time performing here as part of the Brighton Fringe.

Great comedy show. Saw Claire Carty.

Good is great even if a bit pricey. Atmosphere and vibes are great and the staff is very polite and welcoming. Great selection of beers.

Very tasty food, friendly staff, great beer

Great town pub. Enjoyed the evening and beers at a Brighton fringe venue

Fantastic pub with a brand new menu for the summer. Really friendly staff and lots of games etc to entertain you.

Absolutely super Sunday lunch and served by a lovely member of staff (so sorry I didn’t get her name) who bought all the food and drinks up and down so many flights of stairs to us outside! Food was amazing, all so delicious, and the extra cauliflower cheese was such a nice touch. Highly recommend!

Well, what can I say. Premium toads hall, fantastic atmosphere, great smoking areas and station adjacent. Not to mention the incredible staff, always make you feel at home. Top 5 pubs in Brighton

They have the most amazing bathroom for women- thank you Caxton arms for support for everything a woman needs!

Nice friendly pub with a few different beers

Expensive but well appointed and delightful staff

Really nice pub. Can't believe tonight was my first visit after living 15 mins walk away for 20 years! Great food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Couldn't ask for more. I'll be back.

Got taught the game “toad” here , really fun and i love it even tho am terrible at it ahah! (Oh and food was good / lovely staff ahah)

Lovely cozy pub, great if you like playing board games with friends while having a few drinks, and a stocked box for all contingencies for the ladies, very impressed

Great Sunday roast - best trimmings ever! Under £20

Loved my Sunday roast.they got nice selection of beer on the tap. Family friendly as well.

Oh how time change, I always get this place mixed up to the point I can't remember if I've ever been. It's late and just want to say thanks to the pub I don't remember, the staff I might of met, and the small ornamental lizard I thought I saw behide the bar in my mind palace of the possible maybe I've been there can't remember so let's try again. Oh wait it's coming back it's where Iet Joe for the first time, got trapped and a stand up and walked away with images of Freddy and I recently been bought my assistant a tequila Rosa and made them drink it staying it was vegan when they're not. I really like the fire escape 🧨

Pub has a good board game selection (& drinks of course)

Fantastic pub. Fantastic service. Great food

Really busy on a Friday night, good vibes, good choice of drinks, pub games and quizzes. Really mixed crowds and friendly staff

Good quiz, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere, superb outdoor area. Will definitely visit again. A Brighton hidden gem for sure

She's got great arms, even though at her age you can start to see the cellulite. Though after a nice beer that doesn't matter... Great pub! ;)

Lovely pub, friendly staff and a warm welcome. Will definitely go back here

Sunday lunch in Brighton with the family - decent food, really friendly service and sitting in glass bubbles outside made the experience fun, and encouraged us to talk to the other table in there. Recommended

We visited Coppa for lunch and booked a table in one of the outdoor ‘igloos’ (essential to book in advance, you’ve no chance of getting a ‘walk-in’ igloo). The restaurant itself looks really funky, great design, and was packed. The front of house staff looked really presentable but were flapping and having difficulty dealing with demand. I wouldn’t recommend eating in the main restaurant if you want a good conversation with someone, as it was very noisy, but it was a Saturday lunchtime after all. The igloos were superb, really cosy inside and warm, and great funky music. Far better if you looking for an intimate lunch/dinner. There were blankets to put over your legs incase you got a bit chilly, but didn’t really need them as it was toasty. The service was surprisingly good, despite being so busy. Our waitress was great, very helpful and personable. I wish I’d remembered her name! Reasonable selection on the menu, and cocktails etc I had a delicious superfood salad with chicken. Loads of it and very tasty. And some lovely puds too I’d recommend if you want a ‘novelty’ dining experience in one of the igloos. (Remember to book). Reasonably priced.

Great pub, good food, nice manager guy, love coming on Mondays for Werewolf club

Great selection of board games, pub games and great prices on drinks 🤙🏻 would recommend!

Jack was brilliant and patient with me and my friend, he was cool and understandable even when we lost a deposit on a game (which was our fault!) Most fun in Brighton, cost wise, for a few mates! Toad in the hole and bar billiards!

Very nice pub near to station. Good beer selection and a few toad tables for a bit of Sussex sporting fun!!

Great for comedy and pints are a good price staff are Friendly! Nice cozy pub vibe very busy on the weekends tho ( to be expected)

Come here before football and it is a proper pub serving great drinks in a lovely atmosphere , cant wait to try the food on a future visit

Had a roast here last week, and it was an absolute delight. Everything was excellently cooked and we were all full and happy by the end of it. One of my friends even booked in immediately for the next Sunday! Booking essential!

Lovely pub with great atmosphere and friendly staff!!

Nice friendly pub. Good pub food too. Can get busy.

Went to see the isaach.p show Nice pub, was very busy, no stella on tap, unfortunately 😕 The comedy room was fully booked and got hot by the end of the show Risked parking nearby on double yellows and got away with it Food looked and smelt epic

Lovely little pub with friendly staff and great food.

Great pub, really good offers on burgers and the Sunday roasts are great. Nice outdoor space for the summer and friendly staff

A traditional style pub. It has lots of board games and travel books. Has a sports bar with TV and pool table, as well as a lounge bar. Staff were friendly and helpful, food was good.

Oh my god. Amazing food and lovely bar staff too.

Toads, billiards and darts. What more do you need.

Very nice pub. Staff were very friendly. Six of us had a variety of drinks all of which were good. We had cheesy chips 👍. Best of all , they had bar billiards and a dart board. 👍👍👍

We do like this pub. We've been to a couple of artsy presentations in the mini theatre downstairs. It has a bar billiards table, good selection of beers. Shame the never seem to stock Whitstable Bay Stout. Its a Shepherd and Neame pub but they didn't seem to know anything about it! Get on it gang!

Good selection of beer, plus a bottled stout! Yes! Lots of pub games, including darts, bar billiards and, most importantly, Toad In The Hole! Yes. My fav Sussex pub game. Gotta love this pub. Function room, food and, when you've had your fill, within staggering distance of Brighton Station and omnibuses. Perfic. XXX

Yummy Food especially the Bhaji Burger, great range of non-alcoholic drinks and the staff are very warm and friendly. Lovely place to go with great vibes! :)

Lovely pub with outdoor seating

This is a lovely pub. Has some good Mod memorabilia around the walls. We went with a group of us on a pub golf day out. But would definitely return another time when we could sit and enjoy the surroundings. The landlord was really nice and friendly and had a laugh with us all. Lovely garden area at the back too and the food looked great.

It is a lovely pub. The people are amazing, the drinks are tasty and the garden space is lovely and covered.

Really lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, watched football here , just really relaxed and friendly

Great location, food is nice. Like that it's quiet & relaxing while being in the centre of town

Off the beaten track but a great pub.

Proper old pub. Good beers and ok food menu. Previous menu was much better. Price wise it's ok..Good old "seagulls " boozer.

Great little find, friendly bar staff and a nice little outside area.

Totally unique local pub - old school pub games (darts, billiards and toad in the hole), good beer (not too expensive) and cosy but nice outdoor seating. Bar staff were friendly and the whole place had a good vibe. Highly recommend.

Great pub friendly atmosphere good beer and plenty of board games to keep you entertained

Great outdoor space for chilled Sunday morning Bloody Marys. Didn't have a roast but they have a vegan yorkie on the menu so will defo be back for that! Loads of board games and a road table too.

Little gem of a pub with some old school Sussex coin-in-a-hole game 👍 Good choice of beers and food was great too.

Great atmosphere, great location, Sunday Roast great but not big enough portion for £15. Beer selection poor.

Amazing atmosphere, selection of drinks and food. I highly recommend the burgers and dirty fries 😁
