Regular beers: Fonthill Good Morning Captain, Long Man Best Bitter

See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

This quirky pub is well worth a visit and is something of a hidden gem being tucked away behind the Corn Exchange, just off the bustling Pantiles and only yards from sister pub, the Ragged Trousers. Regular events (some unusual) include live music and stand up comedy and are held in the Forum basement of the pub. Thursday is quiz night. Very welcoming and appealing to all ages. A suntrap patio and a glass-covered terrace are attractions for warmer weather drinking away from the Pantiles crowds. There is normally a Fonthill Brewery beer available.
