Beer and whiskey heaven
The Basketmakers Arms
Why locals love it
Situated in North Laine, this institution is famous as a haven for beer and whiskey lovers alike, with 8 cask ales and 100 different whiskies available as well as great pub grub using locally sourced food wherever possible. Its always busy, offering just the kind of homely atmosphere you want in a pub.
Why you should visit it
This is truly a local's pub that is equally inviting to everyone. Being near the centre of town it is easy to head 'out out' after, but there is a strong chance you may not want to leave given the large array of spirits, beers and wine on offer. It was voted 'Brighton Pub of the Year' in 2014 and 2015 and once you visit, you will realise why!
Special tip
The many tobacco tins stuck all over the wall, open them to find random messages left by other patrons and feel free to leave your own!
