The Black Horse Inn, Lewes

We visited at the weekend and were impressed at the number, range and quality of the beers (there were 7 or 8 real ales and a couple of real ciders). The pub has clearly been refurbished recently - the pub was exceptionally clean and tidy. Staff and other punters were fiendly.

The food was, as others have said, competetively priced. However, we were slightly disappointed at the quality (tough steak and overcooked scampi) and quantity when compared to other places locally (e.g The Snowdrop in Lewes and The Green Man in Ringmer) , indeed we would have preferred to have paid another few � to have had more generous and better cooked food.

We will definitely return as this is an excellent place to drink, though probably won't be eating there again.

Pub du Vin, Brighton

This pub is run by Hotel du VIn, which is located next door.

We stumbled across it by mistake last year and have been back regularly since. There is a very good selecgtion of beer- on tap and in bottles - much of it local, (proper) lagers and a few ciders. Very knowledgeable staff every time we have visited.

They do excellent pub food with a twiamazing scotch eggs and great fish and chips. Sunday lunches are god too

The Green Man, Ringmer

We nipped in for lunch a few weeks ago after hearing good reviews. The food was superb and with generous portions. Although a G-King pub there was a nice selection of beers, which were well kept.

Friendly and helpful landlord too
