We here at the Grand Central do not endorse flings of any kind. But if we did, we’d point you in the direction of this seductive sort from Siren Craft Brew. Liquid Mistress a red IPA is packed with raisiny citrusy flavour and is on tap NOW!

User

🙌🏼Preach, Tiny!🙌🏼

User

A die hard favourite of ours at the moment, this gooseberry sour from Brew York packs a real punch! Who better to see out the Bank Holiday weekend with than Bruce? 🍺

User

Weather may be wet, but this hoppy ale is as dry as they come! Bread and Butter from Vocation Brewery is an aromatic, citrusy and floral number, sessionable at under 4% AVB. Give it a whirl today!

User

It's happened again, it's happened agaiiiiiiiiin...

User

The Seagulls welcome Mou's Man United to the Amex again this weekend. What better time to relive the last encounter. 😉
Home fans welcome to eat, drink and be merry!

User

A local hero from Brighton Bier on the taps this week. A clean, hoppy and big flavoured IPA, born in bonnie Brighton! What more could you ask for on a gloomy Tuesday?

User

Nice little shout out here, cheers!

User

Today, the season starts for the Seagulls, seeking to stop a sophomore slump! We pride ourselves on being a part of everyone's matchday, and welcome friendly fans, home and away, to enjoy a precious pre-match pint with us. Here's to another successful Premier League season!

User

The weather may have turned but it’s still been a great British summer! Celebrate it (and the fact that it’s finally Friday) with this little beauty from Fourpure Brewing Co.! Light, sour and distinguished, this 4% sour uses real strawberries and British malts for a dingy, summery flavour.

User

We went to the nightingale room last night and saw Mr B the gentleman rhymer! I haven't laughed so much in such a long time! The food was great the drinks where fantastic! For a great night out this is the place to go. So much so I'm now here again sitting in the sunshine in the hidden garden! Great great place.

User

The nightingale room, a great venue for our come DVD evenings once a month!

User

Monday night we popped in for a coffee after dinner and The Grand Central had an amazing jazz band playing live. Great coffee too! Well worth a visit!

User

Lovely pub, nice decirations, great roof terace, great staff! And quite handy because it't near the train station and I was able to grab quite fast a scotch egg and a Frontier for lunch. Next time I come to Brighton I'll sure stop there first time.

User

I've just had a party at the Grand Central in their Nightingale Room, staff and DJ Gareth were brilliant as was the buffet would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good party venue

User

Great pub! really good atmosphere with friendly staff.nice little secluded garden at the back.right next to the station.i will return again!

User

Great place will be drinking in the grand more often and the beer garden is out of this world

User

Fab happy dancing to Northern Soul and Disco on Bank Holiday Sunday. The whole pub got up and danced whilst the biggest Monsoon and Lighting shook the world outside. �

User

Amazing food and a fantastic Beer. It has a private room with bar for hire. And it has a beautiful enclosed garden terrace. All in the centre of town, with helpful and friendly staff.

User

User

User

Was at Koulla and Andrea's Wedding Reception yesterday.



Really Lovely venue, food was amazing, staff were very friendly and attentive.



There was a young blonde girl who was serving the food, and clearing tables, who was very helpful, and couldn't do enough to help.



Bailey James was also very helpful, and did alot to make the time run smooth.

User

Having been to the local football match we called in as a last stop enroute to the train station.....

Decent atmosphere with a couple of guys providing the evenings light music entertainment.....

Was a little surprised at only getting 20p change from a tenner when buying two pints of bitter but being in a tourist area not overly.....

Bar staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming and although I don't call to Brighton regularly I would call in again....

User

Bit expensive. Nice pub. What can I say? Didn’t have food so can’t comment on that, staff friendly and nice.

User

The staff were very friendly. We had food. I ordered chicken ceaser salad which looked lovely. Sadly it was spoilt for me as the chef added anchovies � it was awfu left a taste all dayl. Husband had burger and chips which was nice.

User

My friends and I went in for a few drinks and wanted a grab a bit to eat. The pub layout is nice a lot of space to sit.

Once we decided to eat we all ordered our food and it came pretty quickly, my husband got the mix BBQ platter I think that's what it was called and a few other friends for chicken wings and burgers and hummus with bread. Everything we had was horrible! Salt overload on the chicken wings and the rest of the food was tasteless.

I understand some place have a budget but the food in her is really bad! Better off a Mc Donald's. save your money for more beer

User

The doorman security company employ some young guys not at all trained in their job I am a 71 year old and was physically pushed out of the pub when I tried to take a photo of his " shoulder badge" for verbally abusing me for reason the evening 18.11.2016 he was in his mid 20's the other older guy was no problem. He should be retrained or sacked why employ this type of loose canon guy

User

In yesterday at 4pm, Without issue, no problems, chatting with the locals, we then weren't to another pub, came back here at 6pm and they had somehow decided that it at some point within the hour I was away it was now a home fans only pub.. even though there was a local with me... totally pathetic, Total disgrace...

User

I went there are there was this drippy little queen guarding the door to a shitty little theatre that is apparently up the stairs. Who was this limp biscuit protecting??....what mega star was upstairs treading the boards??....Mr Hopwood from Grange hill came out of the door......I was star struck to see such a respected and timeless actor ....WOW!
