A Brighton pub since 1819

Set in the heart of Brighton’s historic and vibrant North Laine, The Dorset has been serving fine food, ale and wine since 1819.

A proper Brighton pub with plenty of character, we’re here for everything from a quick pint and a bite to eat to long lunches, drinks with friends and evenings that carry on a little longer than planned. Expect great pub food, a well-stocked bar and a warm welcome, right in the middle of one of Brighton’s most colourful neighbourhoods.
