The Temple Bar

Great pub...

...but can get pretty packed.

Temple Bar is near Waitrose on Western Road so it's ideal if you're coming from the Hove end and heading into town for a night out. It's got two floors (pool table upstairs) and has recently been re-decorated.

I prefer the downstairs area...the semi-circle bar sits in the middle of the room and there are cosy little areas either side at the back. That said when they're showing sport it gets really busy and you'll need to get in early to find a seat. The atmosphere's always really good...even when it's crowded with fans on both sides. Definitely worth a visit...especially if you haven't got Sky Sports!
