The Basketmakers Arms is an award-winning traditional British pub in central Brighton. Come and pop in to our cosy retreat in the heart Brighton's North Laine. Our traditional British menu champions freshly caught seafood specials, and traditional roasts on Sundays.
Behind the bar, we boast an excellent range of pristinely kept cask ales and ice cold beers. There's also our small but perfectly formed wine list and extensive selection of single malts and unique spirits to whet your whistle.
With friendly staff and an instantly recognisable vibe, the Basketmakers has become a much beloved Brighton institution over the past few decades.

Stumbled upon this place while wandering the street. Such a lucky find! The food was good and the servers were lovely. Plentiful choice of drinks. The atmosphere was cozy with all kinds of nicnacks on the walls. Packed with people. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place. Highly recommend foe a quick drink and a meal!
Just popped in for one drink. Fantastic bloody Mary it was too. Lovely old pub, great vibe. Will go back.
Great pub with excellent food and beer. We popped in on a Monday evening and were lucky enough to get a table so we could eat as well. We had the toad in the hole and vegetarian pie and chips and both were fantastic. Beer and Ale also passed the test as there was a good variety. The pub was packed with a great mix of customers and as tourists - it was great to be in a pub not full of tourists! Thoroughly enjoyable experience and will return again the next time we are in Brighton!
What a delightful, authentic Pub in the heart of Brighton. Sunday roast was super delicious and worth every penny. 👍 Very busy, so glad we booked! Super friendly & efficient staff. A true Gem!
One of the best pubs I’ve been to. Was the end of our London > Brighton cycle and after a wet finish it was just what we needed. Sad that they didn’t have fish and chips on a Sunday but we had the chef special honey glazed ham roast instead. Which was 10/10 EXCEPT the roast potatoes which as my friend quoted were “the worst potato of any kind of potato I’ve ever had in my life”. Tasted like they were made 3 weeks ago and reheated on the day. However the rest of the dinner made up for it as the veg was great. Had a pastel de nata shot of the day which was fun and great choice of beers, cocktails etc. definitely recommend for a visit in Brighton! And leave a little note in the box on the wall too! Small but lots of tables
