There’s a real homegrown and personal feel to Hove’s latest boozer. Owned and operated by two couples – Rick & Ruth Evans and Dave & Ali White – The Watchmaker’s Arms is the city’s very first micropub, found in Hove’s Goldstone Villas.

This is the place to be if you’re searching for the finest ales on offer in Sussex. The team have scoured the length and breadth of the county, finishing with a line-up of beers from the likes of Haywards Heath, Lower Beeding and Bolney.

Perfect for a quiet drink, some vibrant conversation and a pint of something you’ll unlikely find elsewhere, The Watchmaker’s Arms is a snug new addition to Hove’s social scene.
