Didn't try the food. The drink I felt was a tad bit overpriced but other than that a really well placed pub. Right by the station. Was there on Halloween.

Poor attitude by staff and bad service - there are much better places in Brighton to drink, with a much nicer atmosphere, no wonder there were not many people in there

Got off the train station and the toilets there were broken and shut. Called in to this pub as a matter of urgency, and was flat-out refused the grace. Now I know a pub(lic bar) is not a public toilet, but as an older man, and an intending customer, I was told no, as it was "private property" and I was left thinking how utterly miserable a publican and selfishly mean a staff member. All I can say is that what goes around comes around, and I trust these nasties will get caught short in a very public way. And remember their own attitudes when they are themselves in urgent need.

Got rejected from the bar because the barmaid asked how much we drank and we said a 4 pack between us (2 people = 1.5 pints each). Unsure why this means we shouldn't be served. Went to the Railway Bell after which is much better and the service is much better

I got refused service for having to repeat myself 3 times because the bartender could not hear me. After not hearing me she asked me how much I had to drink,, I said 1.5 pints, and she refused service. There are many more other better pubs around the train station who are friendly and kind to their patrons

Had my first, second and third pint of the day here, and then was refused service for avoiding eye contact with the lady behind the bar. This person had been short tempered the whole time we were there, served me a soapy pint of cider, and generally made the whole experience unpleasant. She had dark hair with blonde tips and I would like her to know I really struggle with eye contact as it makes me incredibly uncomfortable. I don’t want this review to be confused for her northern colleague, as she was brilliant.

Tried to pop in for a quick pint on my way home from work, thought I'd try and maybe catch the first half of the football. Brighton were playing so I understand the need to ensure that the opposition fans don't enter the pub, but the door staff seem to have no commen sense. Allegedly only people with actual match day tickets are allowed in, meaning they surely shut at 7 when all the patrons leave and go to watch the match? After very politely telling them that I live here, haven't had a drink yet and were wearing no football gear, but my formal work clothes, I was told no as they laughed me away. No wonder it was dead inside, a shame.

Avoid at all costs. The staff is beyond rude and have no understanding of the law. I am in my late 20s, with my 60 year old father and they refused to serve me. The bartender was also incredibly rude, nasty and unwelcoming. Pubs like this are ruining Brighton for everyone. 0 stars if I could.

Went here for a pint with my dad after a long hike. Even though I’m in my late 20s with my 60 year old dad they refused to serve me. The waitress was extremely rude. We are not from Brighton and not white and she treated us like criminals. Kept looking over at our table every 2 minutes while my dad was drinking making me feel extremely uncomfortable. Avoid this place at all costs. They are a bunch of rude, unprofessional bigots with no knowledge of the law or the basics of customer service.

It's always a pleasure to visit a pub that know how to pour a pint of Guinness properly. We popped in for a drink and had a couple of good drinks in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere before we had to catch our train from the station across the road. There's plenty of other pubs around the station but one didn't have Guinness available and another stunk of fish!

A gang of 7 ex work colleagues were in Brighton for a couple of nights and used the Queens Head as our HQ. We were well looked after my the staff, who kept the bar open late into the night. We did need a few visits to the ATM to replenish the kitty, which became rapidly depleted by the £5+ for pints of Guinness and lager!

Terrible pub, the beer was flat and poor quality. I asked the staff to change my lager as it tasted funny and I wasn’t sure if maybe it was the glass or something. The staff refused and said nobody had complained about that beer on that day. The staff were unnecessarily very rude about it and made me feel uncomfortable. I was completely sober and respectful when asking, I have worked in bars for years and I was shocked at the response.

We popped in here for a prosecco, and crisps. The bar maid clearly didn't want to serve us, or the next customers that came in... they also commented on her demeanour..she didnt smile, and when asked do you sell crisps? Pointed at a sign and said that's our snack menu.... which said "crisps" but didn't give any flavours. The prosecco was nice though! And the pub was cool in the heat.

Disappointing. Recently moved back to the area and menu has lost its edge. Very slow service. Seated upstairs which was gloomy and lacked any ambiance at all, despite lots of free tables downstairs and yes I had a reservation. Lamb from Mixed meat roast was poor - I got the end piece with the stamp on it which was inedible. No one seems to care these days. I’d be heartbroken if that was my business. Won’t be going back.

We enjoyed a nice pleasant meal here. This is a very tiny establishment, with only four tables if I remember rightly. Our host Giorgio was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Our food was enjoyable, as was the ambiance. As everyone states, this is extremely tiny, as is only a deli by day, so probably more suitable to couples, although its difficult to chat privately as obviously being so small everyone can hear what your saying! The food was enjoyable, but in my humble opinion, I am suprised that this restaurant is no.1 in Brighton. I am pleased for the lovely couple who obviously work so hard, that it is number 1, but it did suprise us as we didn't feel it quite deserved the number 1 slot. But this is only "our" personal opinion, so maybe you should try and decide for yourselves :-)

Went there last weekend with my family. First time in a long while. Booked up beforehand which is advisable. We all had a starter and main with a bottle of wine. All courses were delicious. I had the bruchetta which was huge! Fortunately we shared it. My main was the seafood pasta. The mussels were delicious and the shrimps tasty however in shell and small. I would still have it again but would prefer to see larger. The wine was very easy to drink. Service was prompt, friendly and efficient. Nice homely atmosphere...and I wont leave it too long before a return! Overall good value.

Firstly this is quite difficult to find but well worth it when you get there There are only 6 tables in the restaurant and this helps with the personal effects of the restaurant. The owner is really friendly and calls you by your first name. The food itself is quite tasty and authentic. I had the spinach lasagne and the only downside was it was a bit too much cheese .

We went just before Christmas and as I was saying hello to someone at the bar in a normal tone - some diners on a table by the bar asked me to be quiet in a most rude manner. I had never seen them before and had assumed there were not from the local area and was probably doing their yearly Christmas outing. Apart from the rude diners on a certain table - the food was spectacular and the staff so engaging and friendly. Would whole heartedly recommend it as long as the rude townies are not there !!
