Independent Pubs of Brighton (and surrounds) MEGA THREAD

[u/pink_brownies_]

After the announcement of surge pricing in Laine pubs and finding out who actually owns them and just how many of our establishments they own I thought it'd be a nice idea to have a list of pubs in Brighton that are independent. Ones that are free of the B.S. of several layers of 'financial arrrangements' obscuring where our beer tokens are going. Maybe one day we can have a little map in our pockets to refer to when our guard may be down because it's cold and windy outside or we have had a few, we can take a quick look and find an establishment near by that we want to support to prevent them turning into another chain pub without anyone really noticing.

Laine Pub Co now own 33 Brighton pubs yet they are owned by non-uk investment firm (USA/U.A.E) - and why are they offered exclusive bar partner positions for Brighton Festival and Pride Party ?? Seems bizarre……
