The Best Pub in Brighton

I spent a pleasant day on Thursday at our regular Lunch Club. I usually travel by bus into Brighton, the 38 route takes me to the back of Brighton mainline station. The approach to the terminus is on a gentle curve, reflected in the contour of the roof.

The main concourse has had a makeover and is open and bright.

From the main entrance it is a short walk to Surrey Street and the location of the best pub in Brighton: the Evening Star, which is owned by Dark Star brewery and serves a range of its ales plus several guest beers.

My brother Dave and good friend Graeme and I then took a brisk walk to Bellota's Bar y Tapas where we joined Lesley for lunch at our favourite eatery. Delightful, bright interior, excellent Spanish beers and wine and a wonderful selection of tapas.

Whiling away a couple of hours over good food and good conversation with good friends. Salad days....
