The Pull & Pump

You'll find The Pull & Pump tucked away on Clarence Gardens, that quieter stretch between the seafront madness and the Lanes' vintage chaos. It's the kind of place where regulars actually know the bar staff's names and the conversation flows as freely as the bitter. The vibe is straightforwardly local—no craft cocktail nonsense or Instagram bait, just honest pub standards done right: decent pints, respectable food, and enough character that you'll want to linger over a second drink. It punches above its weight for a neighbourhood spot.
