The Bootlegger Brighton

Description

Yards from the picturesque postcard setting of Brighton’s historic seafront, lying midway on the stretch between two world-famous piers, is the Bootlegger. A quiet, unassuming facade leads you into a cosy and welcoming environment with sounds that move your spirit. Jazz, swing, blues & rock ’n roll will sink into your soul and make you dance the night away.

Wood and steel, leather and brass all come together in an iconic setting ready to welcome you to their world. Make your way downstairs to the dance floor and Moonshine Bar where DJs and live music plays, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back into a forbidden bustling hide-out from Prohibition times.
