The White Rabbit in Brighton and Hove

The best pub in Brighton! Wonderful, cozy atmosphere, spent the entire afternoon there last weekend and can't recommend enough :))

The white rabbit is a staple of Brighton finest pubs and places to eat . Not only do they house some excellent bar staff but the kitchen aswell is top industry standard . Would recommend going out of your way for their events and everything is always so well organised and prepared . Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Vegetarian food was very good the pork belly not so good a bit fatty otherwise a good experience

Fast pace pub in brighton recommend to all

Great place, lovely, friendly staff and perfect cider....

Preferred it before the refurb tbh... It's trying to hard to be unique now so just comes across like everywhere else

One of the best roasts in Brighton!

First time here for Sunday Lunch and now can't move as happily stuffed ! Superb Beef, veg and (Huge) homemade Yorkshire Pudding, all cooked to perfection and exceptional value for money as your plate is so stacked.

I recently visited the White Rabbit Pub and had the most amazing roast dinner. The food was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked meat, crispy potatoes, and rich, flavorful gravy. What really stood out to me, though, was the warm and welcoming staff. From the moment I walked in, they made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and it was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. I'll definitely be going back soon!

Absolutely love the new look, had a Sunday roast and it was so delicious, defo recommend to a friend and will be returning

Amazing decor, staff are so lovely. Both members of staff working today have great knowledge of all the beers on tap. Thanks white rabbit for a lovely experience, I will be back soon ◡̈

Such a beautiful pub in the heart of the Laines the staff are always super lovely and helpful which is why we keep coming back x

I love this pub but bar staff are always so rude- as someone who as always worked in customer service I think this is the worst pub in Brighton for customer service

Great staff, great beer, and an enjoyable choice of music including The Talking Heads, The Clash, Fleetwood Mac. A chilled place for a couple of Sunday-evening pints.

Quirky looking pub which I thought would be fun.I arranged for a group of 11 people to meet me there on 10/8.We were very well behaved but the group cheered a little celebration I had arranged for them only to be told to ‘tone it down’ by an extremely rude and sour member of staff. Maybe she should have gone outside and dealt with the obnoxious , rude , quieter group .. easier not to? This was an embarrassing situation for me as I chose this pub but certainly won’t be coming back. I guess you don’t want happy people in your pub. Shame.. I organise regular event meetings finishing at pubs/bars around the city.

Banging food in big portions and good drinks selection. Great spot for lunch or dinner

Great pub! Always busy with an excellent atmosphere 🥳👍🏼🍺

Intermittent piss stink in the garden. Very warm though.

went yesterday great vibe and friendly staff. ordered a burger which was nice. Also order the beef brisket wasn't the greatest and not cheap. stacked with salad and kimchi. The Meat was 4 thick slices and not shredded. When asked the young lady didn't know much about the menu. Know your products peeps. So not a great dish and wish I had the burger. Expensive lesson

Great food, fun vibe with the DJ, pricey drinks!

Hands down the best roast in Brighton, no question about it. The new menu is amazing and the pub looks even better after the recent refurb. The staff is lovely as always!

One of the best pubs in Brighton and I love the spruce up it’s been given it was long overdue. Staff are always lovely and the food is great.

First time we went there for drinks, the barman didn’t bother acknowledge us. We ask if there was room on the terrace, and he just told us to have a look ourself, a little bit rude. We came back for a second time because we thought the fish&chips looked good. We shew up at 12:15 and the bar hadn’t opened yet (it supposed to open at 11). Same cold welcoming from the team, we had to order form the bar, which is a bit peculiar when it comes to ordering food. The only nice person was the blond woman who brought us our food - which was excellent 👌🏻 In the end, good food but terrible staff 😅 Luckily they don’t charge for service 😂

What a lovely little place! We ducked in here as it was raining and ended up staying for a few drinks, we would have stayed for the quiz if we didn’t have dinner reservations. The staff are really lovely, drinks are resonably priced too. Will be coming back next time we visit Brighton!

Popped in to try their new menu with a friend as haven’t since they had their refurb. OMG The food is unreal, so good! All the plates we got were delicious! Also the refurb is sick, the front of the bar in particular looks awesome. Service was great as were the drinks and atmosphere! Would make a great date spot too not just hanging out with friends

Overpriced drinks. Bartender with a long ginger beard was extremely rude. Tried to lecture me on the price of drinks in Brighton as someone ‘who is Brighton born and bred’. Came across as patronising and demeaning. Have come to this pub for years, but will not be coming back due to him. Surprising the staff are trained in this manner!

Before reading on - the staff were excellent and friendly as always. However... We live outside of Brighton and always make a point of spending at least one afternoon at The White Rabbit with friends, when visiting. However the new make-over that Laine Brewery have had commissioned is absolutely horrible. It feels more like a wannabe gastropub or up-market coffee shop than a boozer. The work that's been done has completely killed the cosy pub vibe that was there before. The friends we were visiting with, who are locals, said that we are not alone in our dislike of the refurb. We asked a member of staff about it rather neutrally, not wanting to be negative to someone who likely had no say in the works - they politely (but I suspect democratically) mentioned that the designer hadn't completely finished yet. I suggest stopping them from doing any more damage! Also, the food, it must be said, has become extremely expensive. The portions are compensated by being extra large - not manageable unless at least three people are sharing. And we're more heavy-set than average! A look at other tables and the number of chips and 'tots' they were also leaving uneaten suggests we weren't alone in thinking this. It would be much better to have smaller portions at cheaper prices. Sorry to leave a negative review, but it comes from a well-intentioned place!

I've had to change my rating because it now looks like a generic wine bar and the atmosphere has been decimated. No longer one of my favourite pubs in Brighton. No idea why the decor was changed. Drinks are still fine and the service good.

Beautiful décor inside with lovely staff. We came here for lunch close to them opening they have nice outside options of benches or cute booths. I ordered a small plate of the vegan smoked tofu taco which was the perfect size.

From 5 stars to 1. It has gone from being a place with personality and unique decoration to a bland and posh place like the hundreds we find anywhere. Total disappointment.

Yes, a perfect place for coffee and sitting. A clean community, this place belongs exactly there and is worth the rest and well-being.

7 pound for a pint of cider I don’t know what your smoking

I came here Yesterday The girl behind the bar didn't really enjoy her service so I asked if there was anyone else to serve me When I did get someone else . The guy who did was great but Unfortunately the prices weren't I ordered for two different types of chicken wings when they come out they were the same type Which obviously annoyed us basically over priced beer and average food and they have had a refurbishment which has made the place lose it's charm

Very sad with the renovation, they've ruined the vibe completely since the renovation

Great place for a drink staff are very welcoming and friendly Great service..out side area was good even had patio heaters in the seating boof which you could turn on and off when needed

This lovely lanes bar/restaurant has had a complete make over and its gorgeous.

Best vegetarian roast I have ever had! They do a vegan pork belly with crackling and some of the carnivors I went with had the vegan pork instead of the meat its THAT good. Cocktails weren't great but the lager was lovely and it had a nice outdoor area, is doggo friendly and has a nice little Alice in wonderland theme going on decor wise 🐰

Food was delicious. Absolutely miserable staff and terrible service though. All acting like they're above everyone and frowning constantly.

Friendly & Lovely bar staff. Cool tunes including Weezer, The Pixies and The Smashing Pumpkins. Nice Atmosphere! Thanks so much for a lovely night!

honk honk honk - your secret admiarierer

someone tell that clown in the straw hat that's not how you pour a guinness. All would have been forgiven if it didn't cost so much !

Best roast in brighton hands down! 4 of us attended and had the beef roast with a side of cauliflower cheese and it was incredible. Beef cooked to perfection. All veg delicious and roast potatoes crisp on the outside and fluffy inside.10/10

Very cosy pub with small beer garden at the rear. Staff very relaxed on shift, maybe this is the vibe they're going for. I know every place is different. Still a friendly and welcoming place

Didn't have food, music was a bit loud just one speaker Didn't sound good, type of music ok at first,later not. Drink quite expensive, but it is Brighton, and a Saturday night.

Nice staff- good choice of beers. A little pricey but it's Brighton- Good location with outside seating.

Great pub with great music and cosy beer garden in the back, right in the heart of The Lanes

A good old watering hole in Brighton. Can get really busy over the weekends so book your table in advance.

Never ever ever go to Brighton without a visit to my favourite pub in the area..

Horrible. Rude bartender who insulted my accent (not even in a joke way just plain rude), spent an extortionate price on a pint of guinness that actually made me ill, this place really needs to hold its head in shame. worst boozer ive ever been to. NEVER AGAIN.

Nice pub with good welcome and good food

Had a lovely meal with my family and love the atmosphere of a Laines pub, however after calling in early afternoon to supply my roast preorder, myself and my family were left waiting for 45 minutes for our food. My partner went to the bar to ask if food would be bought out to us and was told we needed to order, we already had but this had not been communicated to the night staff. Again, the food was amazing as always, however because of the miscommunication between the day staff and night staff our food took almost an hour to arrive at the table and no compensation was offered when it came to payment. I love white rabbit and will return for food and drinks, however communication needs to be improved to prevent this from happening again as it meant my family had to dash out of the pub after their last mouthfuls to make their train home which left a bad feeling at the end of the meal. This is a mistake which is easily fixed, which results in a knock on effect on the customers.

Best chicken burger in Brighton

Cute little establishment, down the lanes .

Great food, cosy atmosphere and excellent service.

Cracking cozy bar. Real fire on the go. Food served. Great music played. Would recommend

Do not come here for a Sunday roast! We was told the wait was 50 minutes, which was ok, so we waited until 1 hour 15 minutes to ask when our order was coming. They said it would be 10 minutes. At 1 hour 40 minutes they came up to our table (was only two of us bear in mind), to tell us they had no idea when our food was coming. So it could have been another 30-60 minutes. That’s over 2 hours for food. We left and had to go somewhere else Awful service.

Although the young lady behind the bar was not very experienced and made a few mistakes she was friendly

Most incredible vegan roast. Best roast I have ever had! The oyster mushroom pork belly was to die for.. crispy roast potatoes and delicious veg and gravy! Only giving a 4 as waited over an hour for food. Never told of any wait time. Shame as the staff were brilliant and super friendly. Also dog friendly a big bonus. Would recommend big time for the food, rest of menu looked amazing!

£6.50 for pint of orchard theives cider by miserable staff byeeee

Great bar with some excellent choices of alcohol away from the mainstream brewery stuff you usually get in pubs. The only thing I would mention is it's not cheap to drink in here but I would still go again as it's a great pub.

£7.40 for a local pint? Must be joking!

£7.40 a pint! I think owner lost his mind completely. Wish you quick bankruptcy

Great food, great drinks, just what we needed after a hard day's shopping. Oh and the onion rings were massive!!!

It is bigger on the inside than it appears. A good place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the lanes. This has a cool Alice in wonderland theme and plenty of space. Their are some nice benches outside too. This place does film nights and has a lot of community stuff going on. The food was tasty...a tad expensive but enjoyable none the less. They have a taco of the day and some some boozy hot chocolate. A good space if you need somewhere roomy and quiet.

Lovely people couldn't do enough for us .definitely recommend food fantastic as are all the staff

Absolutely amazing pub. Great food, lovely staff. Miscommunication with my order but the replacement came out super quick and was brilliantly handled. Good time had by all

Food tasted strange and was not what we were expecting, the service was a little chaotic inside although the staff were really friendly!

I’m not big on pubs or anything and I’m very picky with my food but the food here is some of the best food I’ve had period. I don’t come to this pub to drink I go for the food. Couldn’t recommend more

The burgers are impeccable and the staff and service are suitably hipster. Would visit again!

Fantastic pub, great friendly staff, had a wonderful time

Lovely pub in the heart of the lanes. The food looked incredible and all staff were very friendly. Good job

Very friendly and helpful staff

Pricey pint of lager but lovely after work vibe

Great as Always never got to See Holly.... As I have not been there for Awhile...Staff great and good Vibes 👍✅😁

Eclectic place lovely staff nice atmosphere

Only pop in for drinks But a great pub .fantastic atmosphere and nice feel about the place . Great music

Loads of decent beers for the lads!

Was well early for work and I was so hungry, and I walked past this pub almost every time i go to work so thought I give it a try.... Advice to everyone do visit... Food was banging... Enough said.

Cool pub with a nice outside space both at the front and back. It’s right in the heart of the lanes so had a great vibe. Every time I come to Brighton I stop here.

Love this pub so friendly ,great service,fun atmosphere and right in The Lanes so very central to all the social eating places,great food in here too .
