Three Piers Cookhouse + Pub

You're walking past the Winter Gardens towards the seafront when Three Piers pulls you in—and honestly, that's the vibe. It's a proper pub that takes its food seriously without getting precious about it. The kitchen does British classics done right: pies that actually have gravy worth drinking, fish and chips that remind you why this matters, roasts that don't mess about. It's the kind of place where you can grab a pint and a proper meal, or settle in for something more considered. The room's warm without being fussy, the sort of spot where locals actually eat, not just tourists passing through.
