As a biker, I like pubs that serve proper coffee, especially decaf, preferably with cream, so the Exchange just needs to upgrade from full fat milk to cream :-) There's a garden out the back that's nice and sunny on the north side and shady on the south side, so you can sit round a table with your mates, sun worshipers on one side, sun dodgers on the other and everyone's happy. Plenty of seating in the shade out the front, too. They show big sporting events inside, if that's your thing.

What a great venue, we stayed in an Air B and B just round the corner, found this pub and didn’t leave! The food is amazing and there is so many TVs for watching sport etc! Big shout out to the team!

This is a good old fashioned locals pub with big TVs and sports broadcast for the casual customer. There's a shady area out front with tables and benches with a 50:50 sun and shady beer garden at the back. Plenty of room inside for sporting events and when it's cold. I haven't eaten there but I'm told the food is good by folk I trust. All the staff have been super friendly when I've been catching up with mates who are local.

Came here for Sunday lunch having followed their Chef on social media for some time and seeing all the wonderful dishes. Was not disappointed!! Hands down the best roast I’ve ever had (bar my mums…) Very generous portions,a lovely selection of fresh,well-cooked veg and fantastic gravy. We had the beef and the lamb. I couldn’t believe the amount of meat on both plates. Pigs in blankets as a side were great. We didn’t really have room for dessert, but when there was treacle tart and sticky date pudding on the menu,so we made space!! I have a nut allergy and felt confident in the staffs handling of this. Great value,good atmosphere and friendly,helpful staff. We live in Worthing but will be driving across regularly to eat here (also a good alcohol free range at the bar.).

The Exchange is our go-to for the great atmosphere, banging food and lovely friendly staff. Perfect for Sundays with the doggos, a delicious roast and a pint of 3. Loads of great entertainment on most weekends and great food menu for the rest of the week too. It’s had a refurb recently and it’s looking great!

My partner and I popped in for a drink after the T20 cricket and it was one of the most fun evenings I've had in a long time! The staff were so friendly and on the ball, especially given that the pub was quite busy. We were greeted with a smile, served very efficiently and enjoyed a fantastic evening of live music. Needless to say, the "one quick drink" turned into several! Amazing atmosphere, fantastic people. What more do you want!

Normally a lovely spot. Certain members off staff have made it less so in recent years. It’s a real shame as most of the staff, and the venue has been great, sadly particular members of staff have made this a steer clear and head to one of the many other lovely hove pubs!!

Been here a few times recently and was surprised to see a lower than expected rating. The more recent reviews are far more accurate. Have had food twice (both times banging) and the staff are lovelt. Really nice bar and spot. My preferred place to watch football even though it's a bit out of the way for me as it doesn't really have a football vibe, all very friendly and enough space to fit everyone.

I had the soup of the day and on an exceptional cold day was more than welcome. The chowder was just the best and when the full roast arrived, oh my what a culinary delight. We were stuffed but made room for Xmas pudding!

Ordered the vegan fish and chips - the batter was amazing - out of this world, the chips and tartare sauce sublime, but have lost a star because it seemed to be ALL batter. I *think* it was supposed to banana blossom for the vegan fish but it was so thin and sparse, it may as well been entirely absent - love batter but expect more than just this.

food really bad, it wasn't busy in there plenty of open tables so I can't see why. First time trying the food here and the last. I'm so glad I saved myself money by not getting the steak! the burger is crazy at £17 it was rock hard and inedible. I asked for no cheese but somehow there was still hard melted cheese lumped onto the tasteless 'skin on' processed fries. it was way too much aioli sauce aswell. had to leave most of it. the white bait was so bland too and just in a big swamp of sauce. really disappointing. abandoned food sad edit to reply: it's solved already but thanks for reply, I wouldn't eat here again due to the experience and cross contamination, just wanted to share the review of the poor food so others won't waste money and be dissapointed. I wouldn't have minded the price if it tasted nice. if you sell burgers for that price people are going to expect something better than the hundreds of competitors in the city.

Nice enough pub, friendly staff, but so expensive for a tucked away local. £7.50 for a locally brewed pint, £17 for an OK but not amazing burger and chips that didn't even come with some coleslaw or a pickle. Between 3 of us we spent over £100 in a couple of hours, could have gone out for dinner for that. Felt like a rip off, central Brighton pretentious gastropub prices. Bad value for money.

Even though the roast was £10 it was both generous and of a high quality. To be honest I would happily of paid around £15. I had the beef and it was slightly over cooked but was neither hard or tasteless. The pepper crusting was a great touch! Great range of seasonal veg and I normally dislike neeps however the parsnip chip things as a garnish were fantastic. The wine selection was good and as always brilliant range of real ales etc! Staff were brilliant!! Side note- the football was on the big screen which wasn't intrusive on the meal but could be if you sat in the wrong place!

A bit tired and grotty. Could do with a spruce up. We visited later on a Sunday afternoon and the football and Sunday roasts had just finished. There were a lot of very young children running about and there were lamps on high window ledges and fairy lights that the children seemed to be able to tangle themselves up in. Staff were very friendly though. Overall, just not our sort of pub.

We had Sunday lunch at The Exchange and we could have been at a top restaurant or incredible hotel. The menu devised by Chef Weilding is varied and exciting - offering other options as well as a Sunday Roast. We chose beef croquettes to start which were crispy and meaty, and an utter delight. The roast itself was plentiful, the vegetables were roasted perfectly, the cabbage was sweet and so fresh. It was easily the best roast I have had in an extremely long time and is second to none in Brighton and Hove. It is a must that you visit - and please, order the cauliflower cheese, it is heaven in a bowl.

If you've not eaten in there recently give it a go! A new chef has arrived and with him an absolutely delicious menu of lovely fresh food cooked beautifully. I tried the squid which was huge whole pieces of fish (not a calamris ring in sight!) and it was wonderful, followed by steak, frites, salad. Often steaks can be so tatseless but I had a hunch this was gonna be good-and it was! Flavoursome, tender in short, perfection. I hear the Sunday roasts are good too- if you're local, give it a go!

Sat outside for 5 minutes while the pub was completely empty on the inside and the bar staff come for a cigarette, socialise with their friends who haven’t ordered anything then disappear inside without clearing my table even though I was given eye contact. I went inside and asked quite reasonably for my table to be cleared and subsequently I was refused service after the less than basically equipped on the common sense scale scruff of a barmaid took offence to me asking her to complete the most basic fundamentals of her job. I wouldn’t waste your money on even a pint here. After asking to speak to a manager I was palmed off several times to the mess of a “manager” who complained to me it was too busy for her to handle on her own. I would strongly rethink your staff as it’s your customers who pay them and you.
