dog-friendly, relaxing surroundings and quality pub food
Lovely pub and lovely staff. Well worth a visit.
I went with family 5 plus 1 child and received a very good quick service. The food was lovely. I would definitely go again.
Absolutely fabulous staff. Couldn't do enough for us. Made us feel really relaxed
We recently went for a family roast here. The service was great. So helpful and friendly. We were recommended a starter and I have never tasted anything quite like it. 10/10 It was amazing. My daughter isn’t a fan of roasts so she opted for pasta. There was a good range of options for her which she was happy about. The roasts were so full of flavour and the meat was cooked to perfection. It was also a nice touch that we could see the chiefs working away. We posted pictures on social media and my friends liked the look of the food so much they went the same day. We will definitely be returning soon.
1st time visit after total refurbishment.
Spacious and nicely done up, feels so much more modern and welcoming.
Staff were super friendly, polite and professional today at 12:30pm. 10 out of 10.
Special offer on the Espresso Martini, 2 for £16, spot on with the coffee liquor.
The beers were very nice too.
The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked to requested medium, juicy and tender, and portion size is definitely very generous.
Not a huge menu to offer, but it helps massively in better food quality and cooking to perfection. Highly recommended.
Will definitely be back sooner next time.
Roasts to die for! Decent portions and utterly delicious. Our group tried all the different roasts on the menu and everyone was really impressed with the quality and what good value it was. We’ll definitely be back for more and would highly recommend 😋
I went here for the first time on Sunday for a family roast. The staff were very helpful and the service was great. There was a very pleasant open feel to the place. The food was amazing, by far the best roast I’ve had in Hove.
Will definitely be back again soon!
Absolutely fantastic! The Cricketer is a great pub since the refurb, nice interior and balcony, good drinks but since the change in kitchen and menu this is the place to visit!! The food is sensational, if you’re a foodie you have to try it. Great selection, top quality cooking at its finest. You cannot go wrong. Seriously impressive.
Very well designed new pub. Stylish mix of Scandinavian and New York architecture.
Excellent jazz on weekends that is totally free.
The all new Sussex Cricketer is totally different to it's previous incarnation. More trendy bar grill feel about it than local pub. Not that that is all good. No rear garden any more but the front terrace works well and is comfortable and being raised didn't have a side-of-the-road feel about it. Decent food. Good range of beer. Nice decor.
The SC went out of their way to accommodate severe allegories on our group. The chef prepared a specific menu suitable for the variety of foods that needed avoiding. The waitress asked specific and relevant questions, and served his food first, to ensure no cross-contamination. They even went as far as to ask if all okay with ordering drinks etc from the bar. Outstanding attention. Food was really good as was the atmosphere- really lovely lunch. So appreciative of their attentiveness and professionalism. Great for dogs and babies too!
I love this pub, it has a really chilled vibe during the day (in fact I'm making use of the large tables and comfy seats with my laptop) and has a nice atmosphere in the evening with all of the open space. The food honestly gets better and better. I don't think I've ever eaten so well in a pub - possibly one of my favourite meals I've eaten. (I had the pork chop with caramelised onion jus, crispy potato and hispi cabbage)
The first thing is probably the most important! The Sunday roasts which honestly are delicious and one of the best Sunday roast lamb and sides I've eaten!. For a first time coming into the pub it was disorienting and confusing due to how busy it was and the size of the place, I feel this could easily be improved by having a host on the front door directing booked bookings to tables or helping with any further customer queries. With the food quality I feel this place should or could offer full table service with maybe an added optional service charge which would enhance the guests experience and generate a higher hourly rate for the chefs and front of house staff. I defentley will be returning and highly recommended!.
Only pop in for a pint first visit very impressed love the feel of the place, menu looked good and prices reasonable. Will be back to try the menu and Sunday roast. Feed back later.
Update: couldn't resist had a portion of chicken wings and chips, really nice. Great flavors and fresh. Most definitely be back
The newly built Sussex Cricketers in Eaton Road Hove next to Sussex County Cricket Ground.
Very different from the previous pub which was demolished. New flats are above and this pub is now fully open plan with a south facing sun terrace at the front of the building. It gets the sun most of the day and is great to sit out as the road is pretty quiet.
Good choice of draught beers but not so many real ales on tap. This pub is now run by Indigo Inns.
They do food but more attention to detail and presentation is needed as the pork belly was not very well presented.
In all, an impressive modern venue and perfect for sitting out in the sun.
Beautifully tasty food. Big portions. Highly recommend for a roast. Will definitely be visiting again - loved it
Called in for a beer on a Monday afternoon. Very quiet. Nice pint of Guinness, couldn't see any real ale. Apart from that, a good selection of beers.
Nice comfortable pub, clean and bright. Great for a large party of people. Also comfortable bays.
Menu looked OK.
Disabled access at the back.
Pleasant staff.
Will try the food next time.
Nice interior decor, bar staff are friendly, quick service, and prices are reasonable with deals on cocktails 2 for £16. Outdoor seating is lovely on a sunny day (although uncovered).
Lovely venue.
Brilliant staff, great selection of beers, fantastic food. Amazing brunch menu.
What a superb addition to Hove.
My husband and I always come here since it’s been refurbished.. whether it’s a weekday or weekend, the food and staff are always amazing! The food is phenomenal and with the change of menu on a regular basis gives you more of a reason to keep coming. The decor is lovely and has a chill vibe to it. They’ve started doing mulled wine which I need to say is prob one of the best I’ve had! The food is literally 10/10 and is way more than pub food.. the small dishes are just next level!!!!
