Proper Brighton Pub

As expected
The Cricketers is one of those places that everyone tends to meet up at before a big night in town. Well the slightly older 'I-hate-Yates' crowd anyway. One half of the pub is VERY traditional with heavy red velour seating and walls adorned with...well as much as they could cram on them to be honest. On a Friday and Saturday night it can get uncomfortably busy and hot in there.
The courtyard bit to the right though is really cool...stone floors and big wooden tables. Much more comfortable if you're not the sort that enjoys being jostled about by the bar. Something for everyone then I guess. All good.

The Cricketers is a lovely pub, it's just a shame it gets so crowded sometimes on a Friday/Saturday night... but hey it is in the popular Lanes and it's difficult to keep good pubs from getting all popular and busy!!? If you're a smoker you'll love it 'cos they have a fab covered smoking courtyard thingame that feels as much like smoking inside as you can legally get.

The Cricketers pub in the Lanes is the odlest pub in Brighton i believe. Situated in the heart of the Lanes you are central to all thats going on. Old fashioned in side ( well pub like ) with a transformed outdoor area to help smokers enjoy their pint, an ecclectic mix of people drink here. Great in the day time but uncomfotable on a weekend.
