LION AND LOBSTER REVIEWS
Lovely place with good menu and quality pub food. Nice selection of wine and beer. Sunday evenings live jazz music performance. Mostly local people. Surely a place to visit in Brighton. Service is politely and fast.
Fantastic Sunday roast. Quick and extremely polite service. Downstairs is your regular pub, upstairs is lovely decorated dining bit as well as an outdoor beer garden on a terrace. Thank you for such an amazing experience.
Love the lion & lobster! Such a classic little pub and always so friendly! 100% recommend

THE WALRUS REVIEWS
Big Beautiful space. Good for both drinks and food! The portions were huge and has also great vegan options. We tried the fish and chips that comes with tartare and mushy peas and the pasta with vegan meatballs. If you like calamari I highly recommend the starter.
The service was really nice and with a lot of positive energy. They are open for everybody. The food was also really good.
Great food and the place itself is so interesting! I love the "semi rooftop" area.
