Can anyone recommend some bars/clubs along the same lines of Bohemia and the ex-Karma club at the Marina?
There are plenty of pubs in Brighton but I am struggling to find more up market bars along the lines
of Bohemia.There doesn't seem to be any.Also am looking for clubs with an older crowd.Maybe you know of certain nights
when some clubs have an older crowd.

Many Thanks

Concorde 2 is the only place along the seafront or west street to avoid roudy revellers, green door store, black lion, anywhere in the lanes or head to hove actually!

The indie night in Green Door Store is pretty decent & largely dickhead free.

My God, does anyone even venture into Pool Valley nowadays? (unless you are travelling by National Express of course). A more run down area you couldn't wish to find.

Bar 32 on Duke Street.

Not my cup of tea by any means but should fit the bill. Fun story, was in there earlier this year for a birthday knees up when the missus decides she's had enough so we jump in a cab home. Three minutes into the journey the phone rings and its my mate who's stayed for one last drink. Geatan Bong has only wandered in soon as I had left. My mate is a Coventry fan (poor ****), but he's acosted poor Gaetan and insisted he speak to me on the blower. Ended up having a pissed up 5 minute chat with him. Good end to a very mediocre night.

Interesting question. IMHO Brighton doesn’t really do upmarket and certainly doesn’t do high end.....which is something I quite like about Brighton.

Upmarket and not full of teenagers. That place doesn't exist in Brighton . Walk along 15 mins into central Hove where a more grown up less chavvy experience awaits...

Thanks for the replies.It seems Brighton doesn't do much high end like Bohemia/ ex-Karma and Ebony.Strange that it doesn't cater for both markets.It's not some some country village but a city so I would have expected more.I've been to Brighton hundreds of times over the years as I live not too far away.Mostly I'll go daytime or if it's at night it's usually to a restaurant.Due to having a new g/f who lives there I'm going out there more in the evenings and have been dissapointed not to find bars/clubs like the ones I have mentioned which cater for an older crowd.I have been to some good pubs but I'd like a choice of more bars.So which ones are worth a visit in Hove?

In some respects I’m baffled like you, in others I’m not. Hotel Du Vin is nice for a decent cocktail if that floats your boat.

I would recommend a few craft beer bars but there’s every chance me or my Man Squad will also be in there....and your new girlfriends head will be turned. In fact we’d probably turn your head as well.
