| This is called the Charles street. The Charles street bar is a fab place to visit. Always entertaining and full of fun. Will be some good cabaret this sunday 8th for the annual charity bash. FUN,fun ,fun. rainbowian - 4 Sep 2013 15:17 |
| Now the Charles Street bar. A gay pick up place. If thats what your looking for, ya just found it. Personnaly I wish it was still the Hungry Years. forresearchpurposesonly - 7 May 2007 23:12 |
| I used to go to the pub with my then-boyfriend and the club with my mate Guy. The landlady was an interesting character. The club was pretty cool, when I used to go the DJ sent round a list so everyone could put down a few requests. The seating on the sides of the room with the dance floor in the middle was a bit reminiscent of a school disco, but didn't make it any less charming to me. I know when it shut a lot of people felt they had no choice but to trek up to London for a decent night out. Well missed. kutiepie6662003 - 19 Feb 2006 14:31 |
| It certainly is missed - by the brighton alternative community in general and by me and others who've commented here specifically! Okay, so it had its drawbacks but it was a true institution and a legend in its day. But don't bother going there now, it's been sanitised and turned into a characterless 'Bar'.

| The old Hungry Years was an institution; great music, no frills - how can anyone say it is not missed??? My friends & I travelled halfway across the country to go there whenever we could (not often enough). I used to be there every week when I lived nearby. Best rock club I've ever known. "Stuffed full" of smackheads & "dog rough women" is unfair; sometimes there were a few, but less than most clubs. The great thing about the Years was the music & the atmosphere - that's why we all went there ('91-2000) - certainly wasn't for the beer. We were all GUTTED when it closed. I didn't know it had been reopened or that there was a travelling show - thanks for the info. ali - 29 Sep 2004 11:04 |
