The Cricketers
Lovers of history—and a well-pulled pint—keep this traditional pub, the oldest in Brighton, busy night and day. There's been a pub on this site since 1547; the original owner was burned alive for his religious beliefs and the pub itself has burned down over the years. Today, it's a very Victorian-looking spot and always crowded. If you want a description, pick up Graham Greene's classic novel "Brighton Rock" which immortalized the Cricketers.
