The New Sussex Hotel Pub in Adur

Booked a table for 3pm but we turned up at 2pm. Not a problem. Staff really friendly. Food great

Cosy pub. Allows dogs. Food wasn't hot, just warm, otherwise a good time.

Had the toasted cheese sandwich. a tasty bite, was a lunchtime so the atmosphere was subbed but lively enough. A good place for a catch up. Staff on duty were great, friendly and attentive. A good experience was had and a Guinness or two!

We popped in here for an afternoon drink and it was buzzing in there. Really cozy and presented well. Dog friendly and they do food on there if you want as well. Central to Brighton surrounded by lots of great shops.

A little slow but was early evening. Still a lovely atmosphere. Regular haunt in my youth .

Great service and Food, plus the Abbott and Ipa was absolutely perfect

Cozy pub with the right feel. Family place where you can get most of what you want.

Unfortunately we came on day they changed menus and the kitchen staff couldn't meet the standards. Food delivered to the table at different times, some items missing off plates, kids left to last to get their food almost when others had finished their meals. Only a table of 4 so not a big party to cater for. Staff were apologetic but made the lunch stop a bit of a shambles.

Our group of 7 ate here this evening. We had an issue with the food but it was quickly resolved satisfactorily and therefore we would not hesitate to eat here again. Thank you to the staff for that. The servings are a good size compared to other pub meals. Highly recommended! Photo is of the Christmas dinner.

Old England enchanting us once again.

Just an ordinary coffee shop, not expecting more as you cant see outside so it has a closed area

Absolutely great place for a drink !

I was told that there was a gluten free sandwich and chips option so was over the moon, however after ordering and waiting over 45 minutes (which I was uninformed about regarding the long wait; furthermore, as a type one diabetic who had given insulin for my meal after ordering and then proceeded to have to stop their insulin and closely monitor their blood glucose levels as over-dosing on insulin, especially when not eating/waiting for over 15 minutes for food can be extremely dangerous ), I was told that I would have to wait even longer as the chips were being cooked separately and the kitchen/chef needed time to clean it for gluten allergens. (I’ve worked as a chef for over 2 years and must say that if it takes you over 5 minutes to disinfect your kitchen for allergies then there’s huge issues in your general cleanliness and allergen system). Then, after waiting 45 minutes, received a terribly dry, sand papered textured piece of chicken with one singular, three day old piece of bacon, alongside a measly bowl of raw, inedible chips tasting of chemicals. The only good thing about this meal, was the baby gem lettuce in the sandwich, even the tomatoes were hacked at by an extremely blunt knife. I’m aware that Greene King pubs are more budget friendly, but having to wait 45 minutes for my £16 meal, to receive something practically inedible is frankly appalling. However, ending on a brighter note, the staff were lovely and did apologise profusely. For future reference they should inform customers of the wait time for their food, and the chef immediately when receiving a ticket with an allergen to start his strenuous routine of cleaning the kitchen.

Great food ,staff very attentive.

Stopped by for a pint while visiting Brighton. Found this corner place calm and less crowded. Very pleasant staff who can advise you well. Food was standard Greene King but very nicely done. Not a bad selection of drinks. Good service and well seating area inside and out.

Popped in for a drink and light nibbles at lunch time as eating out later elsewhere. Had 3 plates from the sharing menu and I can honestly say they were up with the best I've had. The chicken kerrange with BBQ sauce was brilliant, smashed potatoes excellent and the crispy squid was according to my wife also excellent. Hats off to the chef and Greene King it was a pleasant surprise

Nice pub serving a good menu, something for everyone. We just had a sandwich and chips and all was good.

Nice place to do a private birthday celebration and hangout with friends

Came in on a busy Friday night but staff were so lovely and accommodating. Food came out quickly and overall had a lovely day out.

When we placed the order at the counter as usual, the young woman served us rather unfriendly! (We don't know that from England!!) We had to wait 50 minutes for our food??? Only when we asked for 40 minutes were we told it would take another 5 minutes (there were only 4 of us and we were there at 6:15 p.m., the restaurant and outdoor area were only half full and again only half ordered food) There was no apology or anything like that. CONCLUSION NOT recommended

Great food, amazing staff, we had a wonderful evening here.

Lovely pub. Always visit when we come to Brighton. Came in last Saturday on Pride weekend and had a lovely lunch. Lovely guy served us and customised my son's burger. Really enjoyed it. Great service. Thank you

A pleasant place for a "tired" tourist to rest

Cute little pub in a nice sunny square. Enjoyed the outdoor dining. Ample vegetarian options. I really enjoyed the vegetarian cheese burger which was nice and juicy with a fresh salad. Could be improved with a pickle! My 10yo had battered halloumi and chips, and was very happy with both.

Didn't eat here. Quiet when we went in although sat here outside the previous night which was lovely.

The Sussex pub in Brighton is known for its friendly staff and lively atmosphere, making it a great choice for catching up with friends or enjoying a night out.

TERRIBLE! Even no stars would be too many. Avoid at all costs. No idea what has gone wrong with this pub but what a truly awful experience. Half of our table had finished eating by the time the other half of the food arrived and when it did, we were served 2 plates of pork sausages that were completely raw and inedible. Congealed hummus (how anyone even manages to do make hummus look that bad is beyond me), mangled fries and dry, seemingly microwaved bread. The bar staff tried to rectify the situation by taking money off the bill but the food (if you can call it that) should never have been allowed out of the kitchen (just as whoever was cooking it should never have been allowed in it). The place is a complete health and safety hazard and we are just lucky no one was taken seriously ill.

Didn’t stay as could smell the toilets 🤢 Absolutely disgusting!

Went for a few drink and food really good experience lovely staff and good food

Class Sunday roast to be fair. I really recommend it. Quality!! One of the best gravy I tried.

Had lunch here whilst staying in Brighton. Good quality food. Quick service. Would recommend

Huge fish & chips delicious ! Superb service and decent prices

Love this place brilliant atmosphere and food 😎😎

Very good restaurant, I recommend 100%

The cheeseburger came out with cheese barely visible (cooked too long) asked for more cheese and they added grated cheese instead of a slice. It also only came with one slice of bacon and I'm sure it's supposed to come with two- especially the price being £14 for a burger..Not good. The fries were perfect hot and crisp. Shame about the burger.

I love this place. Great atmosphere always. 👌 friendly professional bar tenders.

Lovely pub, staff were very accommodating for our large groups

Service was quick and friendly. Food was really delicious, would recommend and would go again.

Could do with a bit of a spruce up.

Def not wheelchair accessible no ramp into side door and front door has 3 steep steps.Food average and very noisy. Although ordered bar food took half an hour to come and was luke warm.

Great value lunch and very friendly staff

Love cosy pub.. Great staff, lovely service and lovely food..Real reliable bolt hole, close to the sea front.. A no brained. Pay for what you get. Lovely waitress even took time to take a family photo for us.

Good fun and great staff and drinks.

A lovely traditional pub hidden away in the back streets away from the partygoers.

English's of Brighton is an iconic seafood restaurant and oyster bar and this was my first visit. The food was delicious and more than lived up to the restaurants reputation. I had the fish pie which was divine, full of fish and flavour. Our group also thoroughly enjoyed the seabass and classic fish and chips. A must go destination for seafood and champagne.

It's hard to get a seat. Nice staff, and the food looked amazing.

Only went for drinks in the evening, nice traditional type of pub with friendly staff & nice atmosphere, I will be going back when I'm in Brighton next.

Nice place for a boxing day pint.

I like this pub it has a nice atmosphere. We going there quite often with friends and always have fun with the waitress called Lola. She does a really good costumer service. She is great in her job

Stopped for a couple of drinks. Nice atmosphere and friendly bar staff.

The food was absolutely amazing . Can't recommend it enough. The staff are fantastic and it is such a lovely to go.

Nice atmosphere but Sunday roast may have been the worst I’ve ever had - not good quality product, many quite obviously cooked from frozen, boiled rather tasteless vegetables

We sat quietly all afternoon. Drinking slowly, and enjoying the atmosphere, olny to be told Sorry this table is now booked.

I liked their food menu as it had light bites and sharing meals. We had come in for a drink, and were not really hungry, so the sharer food was ideal for us to nibble at! Lovely staff too!! 🥰

The food was bad but the sus sex was good 🥵🥵

Asked if still open for lunch....yes Waited 15 minutes, staff looked away, 3 times asked, finally one came...sorry kitchen closed 5 minutes ago???

Great little pub good food .friendly staff

Not all meat is available, mostly beef parts available

Amazing vegan sunday roast. We went back another day and they were sold out by 4pm! Lovely vegan starters as well. Meat dishes available as well but we are vegetarians who like vegan food.

Stopped in for a light lunch whilst on a short holiday, found this pub to be a calm island amongst the bustle of the town. Very pleasant staff who offered advice, made conversation, made us feel welcome. Food was traditional pub food (standard Greene King menu) very nicely done, we enjoyed it enough that we returned for lunch on the last day of our break.

Friendly staff. The chain has stopped selling local beers, which is a real shame considering it's location.

Nice pub quieter during the day and pretty lively at night with a nice selection of beers on tap.

Beautiful very quiet hidden gem

Lovely old pub in The Lanes, good food and drink with a lovely busker playing for those at the tables outside.

Sensational seafood and fantastic setting and service

We visited on 23/08/23 and the staff were brilliant Aa I have problems with my back they bought a more comfortable chair with blankets for me to sit outside on We had a lovely afternoon sitting outside in the square Thank you 😊

Staff very helpful and polite. Only had a combination of starters but they were amazing. Definitely recommend.

Was passing through town and got a a Pims, which was really good. And the staff were all lovely.

2 for1 drink deals mon to thursday 4 till 7 on selected drinks. Very good value

Place was a little run down toilets were nasty. Staff were nice and friendly

Nice pub. No one tried to touch me, bum. Would recommend

Only popped in for drinks Did ask about food but got told they weren't cooking. Only for people that were booked .shame missed out on 4 orders . And in the time we were there no one came in for food . Also toilets were a bit of a disgrace . 😕

Stopped in for a pint with the dog whilst waiting for the family to finish in the arcades. Nice beer and a great spot, on a lovely warm day, to watch the world go by. Very relaxing

I just popped in to kill some time and have a half pint. It was a nice atmosphere because I was there at an off time and could just relax and people watch. Would definitely visit again for a meal.

Food was over cooked, shame we used to like it in here.

A very nice pub for a pint we sat out side in the sunshine it was lovely

nice trad pub, lovely fish and chips

Great beers, great atmosphere, very engaging barmaid.

Nice pub, accommodating and friendly staff, had a very pleasant couple hours with a drink in the sun.

Always walk past here just to deal with drunken women always fighting eachother

Very central with nice staff and good drinks selection

Cracking fish and chips and a pint to rival what's available back home in the north. I liked that they were honest about the wait for food too. Thanks 🙏

Very nice pub with excellent cover bands

Great pub always visit when in the area, great beer and service

Friendly little pub with decent Greene King beers on. Will pop back with the dog next time we're in town :)

Really good ,a pub still holding onto that traditional look. Service was spot on and welcoming. Didn't eat so can't comment on that

One of my favourite pubs in Brighton. Always get a great burger here, and friendly service too. Good menu overall and fair prices.

Good food and a friendly service.

Comfortable locals pub in the middle of the Lanes.

Friendly bar staff, will return to try Sunday roast

Popped in for a couple of drinks and a baby Guiness on a Saturday night. Our bartender was very nice and friendly and offered us some local advice. Top service.

Friendly staff, good food, large selection of gins.

One of the best chicken sandwiches of my life. Staff were friendly. The atmosphere was chill.

Nice food. We ordered via the app which worked really well although you had to say which table you were sitting at but there was no indication so had to ask.

Ok pub - beers are of a fairly standard selection. Staff were very friendly. Toilets were a bit of a water park and could benefit from a clean (and drain). Ok but no more

A decent proper boozer with really friendly staff.

Nice pub but £3 for half an ale is f'ing vertical.
