The Font
Proper neighbourhood pub on Union Street serving decent beer and no-nonsense food. The kind of place locals actually go to.

You walk in and immediately know you're in a real pub—the kind that hasn't been Instagrammed to death. The Font sits on Union Street, that stretch where things actually feel like Brighton rather than a theme park version of it. There's a solid beer list that doesn't take itself too seriously, and the food is the sort of thing you'd want after a few pints: proper, unpretentious, done well. It's the pub you'd go to because you live near it or because someone who knows the city actually sent you there.
