In the heart of Brighton and Hove, the Lion & Lobster is a classic pub, with cosy interiors and heartwarming pub food.
Set across three floors, the Lion & Lobster is full of charm and character. Designed with cosy seating nooks, vintage memorabilia, and twinkling fairy lights, this is a pub worth settling into. There’s also a bright rooftop terrace, perfect for al fresco dining and soaking up the sun.
The kitchen uses quality produce from local suppliers to create a delicious menu, with something for everyone. For a lighter meal, enjoy tasty snacks like giant salt and vinegar pork scratchings, butter chicken wings, and sticky chilli tempura cauliflower. Sophisticated starters include lobster bisque, and mushroom donuts, while mains are versatile and comforting - try pork belly porchetta, twice baked gruyere souffle, and truffled mushroom lasagne. There’s also fan favourites, like a smash burger and flat iron steak. Pair with truffle fries, or rocket and parmesan salad, and finish with an indulgent dessert - think big banana profiterole, warm chocolate brownie, and sticky toffee pudding.
During the day, the pub also serves a light lunch menu, featuring a battered haddock sandwich, wedge Caesar salad, and flat iron baguette. There’s a deluxe Sunday lunch menu too, with sharing roasts for two, served alongside mouth-watering trimmings, like brown butter miso leeks and duck fat roast potatoes. Kids are well-catered for, and there’s plenty of options for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free diners.
The pub also hosts a regular calendar of events, from music bingo, to a pub quiz, to live jazz, and Friday steak nights. You can also sign up to the ‘Pub Club’ to receive a free drink and a treat on your birthday.
With its comfortable decor, tasty food menu, and lively events schedule, the Lion & Lobster is a beloved institution in the heart of Brighton.
